The saga continues. It is hard to believe there is not enough money to be made on both sides for an agreement to be reached. EIGHT FREAKIN' YEARS and still no deal... http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2011/10/14/eight-years-later-nfl-network-still-isnt-national/

Don't forget the possibility of the game being cancelled due to severe weather(after all we just passed the anniversary of the October Storm). In that case, the Bills will be 4-1 heading into the bye.

So does this mean the Bills aren't a good team because two of their wins this year came on the final play or the last minute of play?

The Giants are one slip away(Play where Cruz slips, ball is returned for pick 6) from being 4-1. How are they overrated?

Wrong. While I haven't listened this year, I have in the past, but don't let that stop you from making wild speculations.

Well deserved honor. Great game George!

The close games continue, and the cardiac kids win again... Bills 21 Giants 20

PTR...Read the article. He works two jobs and makes no money off this. He does it for the love of the game. Nothing like having an axe to grind against the News and its writers.

Yep.

I'd love to know who at OBD pulled the plug on this. I can't believe it was a huge amount of money... http://www.buffalonews.com/sports/high-schools/article590464.ece The sponsor that left was the Buffalo Bills. Kozak assumed the team was in for its usual portion this season, which amounted to a sixth of the budget, but they weren't. He found out a week or two ago. You and I would certainly think that an NFL team could afford to stay involved with these kind of broadcasts -- it kind of falls into the "are you kidding me?" category -- but Kozak, even in his disappointment, said he understood and thanked the Bills for having been on board. Great to know the Bills are willing to help out in the community, when it comes to football no less.

...and afterwards, they will still need to find an impact pass rusher whether it be a LB or DE.

At the time of the draft, I thought Curry was a can't miss, Pro Bowl, 10 year starter.

Absolutely yes.

Negotiations haven't even started, so I don't know how this can be the case.

Seriously? You have the most elusive QB the NFL has ever seen, and you think Sheppard seemed a "tad slow" on the play. I'm far from being a Bills homer, but put any NFL LB in that same position going up against Vick, and they will fare no better.

Maybe the reason he is on the practice squad is because he hasn't completely grasped the offense. You know the kind of thing where when you run the incorrect route, it turns into a pick six. :doh:

Am I the only one concerned that the Kelly group, is being led by a guy who is not the sharpest tool in the shed? I realize it is not even close to the same level of business, but this is the same guy who stiffed a bunch of vendors/contractors when his restaurant went belly up. He is a great booster of the Bills. Beyond that...I'm not really sold on him or his potential group of investors buying the Bills, and IF Gillett is part of his group, it sounds like my concerns may have some merit.

Wait a minute... Roosevelt = St Joe's Chad Kelly = St Joe's Young Master Kelly knows who is buying the Bills. They must text each other.

This could be true, but I hope you understand how it comes across... You have been made privy to this information(Jim Kelly and Co. are definitely buying the team), but somehow it has not been leaked to any media outlet in WNY whether it be the Buffalo News, WGR550, WGRZ, WIVB or WKBW.

Great thread title.

I agree with your concerns about Kelly being part of the football operations side of the house. I think he is fine as the Bills booster he is today, but beyond that, I have my doubts of him being in on football decisions. As far as what might be coming down, all this is happening behind the scenes and "insiders" posting about what they know, but none of this is being reported by any media outlet? Not saying it isn't true, but call me skeptical.

Are you speculating, or know this as fact? Sometimes it is hard to differentiate fact from fiction on this board. Why wouldn't he be playing DE in the 3-4 fronts, and why has it been reported that he is practicing at OLB? I will have to watch Carrington closer this week.

Not that I am enamored with the Madonna choice, but since when is being knowledgeable about football a prerequisite for performing at the halftime show? This board is great sometimes. :lol:
