  1. 3. Ron Edwards looks like he is not going to let the D slack off without Phat Pat. he looks huge out there and made several nice plays. Right now he is playing better than I thought he would but it is only pre-season. Who knows.

    The sequence of plays where Edwards was involved during the first quarter was very impressive. One play was stopping the RB for a loss, the next flushing the QB out of the pocket and the third was making the tackle on a WR screen(showed great hustle).

  2. With the disclaimer that he was going against backups, I thought Peters did okay in pass blocking. I didn't really notice him on running plays except for seeing him downfield blocking several times, right until the whistle blew.

     

    Certainly not ready to be a starter, but better than what I have given him credit for.

     

    Keep up the good work JP!

  3. Once again Wire showed that he has no idea how to take an angle when attempting to tackle a moving target coming at him. He completely wiffed at least two or three times. I also agree that he is not the ST demon that some make him out to be. I would have kept Prioleau over Wire any day of the week.

  4. no schitt.  people are always griping about the programming on NFL network ("why do i have to watch jaguars training camp AGAIN?"), and then they do something like this and it's not good enough.

     

    i guess some people have to complain about something all the time.  :D

    That was me complaining about the Jags training camp show repeated over and over again. :D My point is that they have a huge vault of NFL Films video to choose from and instead they seem to repeat the same program 3 or 4 times a day.

  5. Wow, and she's a congresswoman? My guess is her district is not too bright. A transcript for those that didn't download, and yes, this is word for word.

     

    "He didn't just get up in here by just coming. You all sit him up in here. Don't let nobody talk about you's boy. Too many people die for us. We're here to fight. That's what I'm talking about. Turn off that (in audible)."

     

    That is too funny ... what exactly does "he didn't just get up in here by just coming" mean?

    The other members of congress must grimace when she gets up to speak.

  6. TO should only be pissed off at two people...His former agent who negotiated the 7 year 49 million dollar contract(which he now claims is a terrible deal) and himself for signing said contract.

     

    During the interviews I've seen, I can't help but laugh when he talks about having to listen to, but not talk to his coaches and teammates. I can't believe Rosenhaus can sit there with a straight face.

     

    WOW!!

  7. ESPN's Michael Irvin on Andy Reid's decision to suspend Owens for only a week based on insubordination and let him return to the team: "You should have suspended him for the entire year. You should have traded him, you should have cut him, but you cannot bring him back now." Meanwhile, Owens apeared on "Pardon The Interruption" with his agent, Drew Rosenhaus, and said he has "no desire" to speak to Donovan McNabb. "How can you exist with your quarterback like that?" asked Michael Wilbon. "I've done it for 10 days since I've been in camp," replied Owens.

     

    Philly may be flushing their SB hopes down the drain, but they need to rid themselves of TO ASAP.

  8. From bb.com profile on Frank Verducci...

     

     

    COACHING EXPERIENCE: Joined the Bills staff as assistant offensive line/tight ends coach and was elevated to offensive line coach during the 2005 offseason…

     

     

     

    I could see where you have an OL coach and an asst. OL coach, but two guys with the same title? :D

  9. Bottom line...the OL was not that good last year and many of the yards that WM gained were by his own efforts. There were way to many times where WM had no hole to run through. Hopefully this aspect of the OL will improve this year.

  10. How long will that program remain division 1?

    They need to make this team competitive in the MAC or drop the program and go after hockey and/or lacrosse, both of which I believe could be very successful programs given the amount of interest in both sports in WNY and Southern Ontario.

     

     

    I am not sure why from a recruiting and coaching standpoint it is so difficult for UB to compete with Western, Eastern and Central Michigan, Akron, Miami of Ohio, Toledo, Ohio U. etc... They have a great campus in a fairly large city(compared to the other schools) and should be able to make a go of it. The 1-11, 2-10 crap HAS GOT TO STOP!!! :(

  11. Come, you can not be serious!

     

    Josh Reed is a complete joke.  You want to deal him and a pick for someone franchise player.  Please, just ask them to bend over.  Maybe they'll do it just for fun!

    I agree on Reed. If Philly wanted a vet WR with experience, they could go after Tai Streets who is currently unsigned. Reed is a borderline #3 WR, who with one more mediocre training camp could easily be cut.

  12. I think you will see Peters as your starting LT on 9/11.  He is green and learning, but his tremendous athletic ability makes up for his lack of experience.  From what we've heard so far from camp on Gandy, I can't see Peters being any worse.

    The odds are slim to none that Peters is the starting LT on opening day. The Bills would go out and trade for one first.

     

     

    PS Athletic ability only gets you so far in the NFL. Ask a guy like Coy Wire. :doh:

  13. Also, you cant speak enough about depth. Realistically, we are one potential injury away from having adams and anderson as our starting DT's with no real solid backup...Not only would simon bolster our d-line, it would help out in that anderson/and edwards could be rotated through, keeping sam and simon fresh...

    Ramius, the depth question is a problem at most positions for all NFL teams. If WM goes down, the options are Burns, Williams or Gates.
