Country, Where are you getting your info?? Link?

I'm concerned about the undisclosed picks! Better not be anything from this year unless it's in a very late round of the draft. Big Pappy

It's interesting that you use the words slow and lumbering. While Jim Kelly had the outstanding arm strength and good accuracy, he was considered slow and lumbering because he was such a big guy. Now I am not comparing him to Jimbo in any way, I have never seen the guy play, I'm just noting the similarities in how they have been described. I have never read anything more true than this! Big Pappy

SDS, Nice job on the upgrades. The site is running phenomenally! Page loads speeds are incredible. BigPappy

Why? yea the guys a douche, but as a Bills fan...do we need that kind of bad karma hanging over us? LOL! BigPappy

OMG! That was awesome. I was rotf lmao. That was the funniest thing i have read in a long time! Bigpappy

I can tell you that I DON'T want that D-Bag anywhere near my Buffalo Bills. He is a cheating scum bag and I hope he gets caught cheating again after this last "Deflate Gate" so it ruins his chances at the HOF. F - Brady, F- the Paties, and F- any notion of that piece of $h!t coming to Buffalo!!! BigPappy

Well Said JohnnyGold! I would much rather get there fair and square and lose, than to cheat and win. Brady is a douche! and so is Belicheat! I would add one thing though. While yes, in his playing days, he could not win the big one......but he is winning the REALLY big one now! I don't want to jinx it and say he has won the REALLY big one, but he is winning it so far. BigPappy

As much as I would like to think that this scenario is possible, it is also HIGHLY unlikely. Ralph was so out of touch with this team his last 10 years, he wasn't making any player decisions. There is no way! Now, i have no proof to back that up, but there is no way in God's green earth that you could prove that he wanted him gone either. BigPappy

Okay, so I can give a pass on the Mike Williams pick. But no way on McCargo. Colossal strech or not, it's still a blunder by the draft guru's at one Bills drive. BigPappy

Not even close to their biggest blunder! Do you not remember Mike Williams and John Mcargo? BigPappy I stand corrected. My Bad. same character, just a different name. LOL! BigPappy

Wasn't he quotes in a bar by a patron saying that "Buffalo sucks, theres nothing ever to do and the women are ugly" or something to that effect? or was that someone else? BigPappy

Buffalo in the 50th superbowl would be very cool and ironic since there first appearance was superbowl 25. Stars aligning......maybe? Bigpappy

Thanks 3rdand12.

Your absolutely correct. They are not letters. Its a forum where people correspond with each other. In other words, it a form of correspondence. Generally speaking, those of us that are older were taught something called correspondence etiquette, and when we were taught this, the rule of thumb was to always sign your correspondence. You don't like that i sign my correspondence...tough. deal with or keep your issues with it to yourself. Maybe you should think about taking correspondence etiquette classes. As for knowing any better than Rex when looking for coaching talent, I never claimed to know better than he. All I said was that I think there is better talent in terms of coaching out there in my opinion. Last time I checked, I and everyone else in the word is entitled to their opinion. I will drop one name that came straight to my mind and I am sure there are others that other members could list off as well but Dick LeBeau is ten times the Defensive coordinator that Thurman is. He may be old, but he is sure as Hell better than Thurman. So yea, apparently I do know better than Rex! BigPappy

All valid points, but perception is everything and it looks like he didn't look for the "best coach" available, just the best coaches available that he has worked with on the Jests or Baltimore. Please...don't get me wrong, it may very well be a good staff and god knows i want them to succeed! But as good as they are supposed to be, the Jests Defense has been horrid this season, and was not very good the season prior. They were okay overall, but sorry.....as a fan, I am tired of "just okay"! Maybe they can deliver, but as a "team" of coaches it does not look like they have worked very well together in the past few years. again...jmho BigPappy

I'm just not a fan of cronyism and nepotism. I have seen it all my adult life, people getting jobs there not qualified for or maybe are qualified for it but get hired over better candidates because they know the a-hole in charge. I'm sure Rex feels "his guys" are great coaches and maybe they are, but I think there are better candidates out there, thats all. If Pepper was offered a spot and he refused...then that sucks for us. He was a good coach (imo). Ummm...Okay? News Flash.... Do you sign a letter you send in the mail even though you add your name and return address to the envelope? They know it's you that sent the letter. BigPappy

I don't think it was the Pegula's that he was having difficulty working with. My personal belief is that he could not get along with D W and since he had the clause that gave him the 4 Million, he figured he would get out now because they hated each other so much. Don't get me wrong, I think the guy is a D-bag the way he left, but if you can't stand the guy your working with/for then you can't blame the guy for leaving. Just blame the guy for how he left. BigPappy

What is it with this notion to have former players as position coaches. I don't get it! they are 20 years removed from the game and have never coached professionally anywhere in the NFL. What makes you think they even have the ability to teach (coach). There is a phrase in life that is very popular, and its popular for a reason. " Those who can....do. Those who can't...teach" If they could coach, they would have been doing it already. I will give Jimbo a pass tho because after he retired he spent all his time with Hunter and the Hunter's Hope foundation after Hunter passed. Personally, i think the time he spent with his foundation was time better spent vs. being a coach. Maybe he can coach, but why now? He is still dealing with the after effects of the Cancer. The man has nothing left to prove. Not to himself, not to his family, not to us fans and certainly not to the NFL. The man is a legend. I certainly don't want him to risk tarnishing his legendary status with the possibility of failing as a coach. While I can appreciate the sentiment, I say no to nostalgia! FWIW JMHO BigPappy

The Defensive coaching staff hires just seem to be cronyism at its finest, and i don't mean it in a good way. What happened to find the best guy available, not just the shmuck you worked with at your last job because that's who you know. Just pathetic! Maybe it will turn out to be a good staff but, i just don't like how its playing out for hiring of the defensive staff. Pepper definitely deserved a spot on the staff if he wanted one! JMHO BigPappy

I thought it was because we lost too many games. LOL! BigPappy KoolAid, I think your on to something here....seriously! Fans could rent rooms and make a weekend out of a training camp visit. Hit the casino's at night in Niagara. Add some cool games, expanding the "fan experience". They could even possibly set it up so fans could rent rooms close to players (extra $$ of course) for added player interaction for fans increasing the cool factor for die hard fans. BigPappy

I kind of agree with your logic with the if you fire one you have to fire both, but who cares? We would have a great HC and a very good OC. That said, I think no matter how you look at it, Kyle walking away from Cleveland paves the way for him to work with his dad. I think it will be in Oakland, but I would be okay if it happened in Buffalo. M. Shanahan is a top notch HC. We have a top notch DC, and K Shanahan has had moderately good success with crappy offenses and between him and his dad working with our offense after adding a couple of OG's via draft and FA, i think we definitely make the playoffs in 2015.

How much wood could a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood?.... And his answer can't be.....Doesn't your Analytic's team know the answer? BigPappy

Yes that is correct. The new memory will be much faster. 16 GB's will get you by with that database size. What os are you planning on running?
