2 things ~50% of these links are not studies and you seem to have exaggerated the conclusions of the ones that are studies. For example in the first study the authors conclude "The rapid onset of action and longer on time without concomitant increase in dyskinesias on mucuna seed powder formulation suggest that this natural source of L-dopa might possess advantages over conventional L-dopa preparations in the long term management of PD. Assessment of long term efficacy and tolerability in a randomised, controlled study is warranted." Emphasis mine. This is not a "win" in the authors eyes so I would point to further studies please.

I am in agreement as well that the coaching staff has done a good job, and that much has been exaggerated.

"As for Williams, Ryan said the rookie was still taking part in the NFL's concussion protocol. However, Ryan indicated Williams is expected to be cleared after saying the Bills had no plans to add a running back; Cierre Wood went on season-ending injured reserve Monday." So no "news" but they are speculating like we are. I am hopeful too.

Really need a RB back. I assume McCoy is inactive till the after the bye so Special K will need to show up.

Man we didn't even make the honorable mentions at the bottom. Oh wait....

Also you should call OBD like now to tell them.

Not sure if its logical inconsistency or just the people talk more when they don't like the direction, but it definitely feels like there is mention of bring Brown back every thread. When he was here it was why haven't we cut this guy. Again not sure if its the same characters making the noise or different. I thought Brown got a bad rap, but don't really have a desire to bring him back. Would really just like Karlos back.

I love the pining for Brown to come back after there was so much animosity towards him when he was here.

I hesitate to put Harvin back there if Sammy isn't 100%. When Sammy comes back then I will ask why Harvin is getting some touches on PR (even though he has never returned a punt in his career)

Tackling should get better if they aren't on the field so much

Also teams have a very bad record the week after playing Seattle so hopefully extra time of that should be good.

You know Tenn has a Top 10 D right? It might be a good Defense.

You're confusing me. You say the scheme is bad but you point to two positives of the scheme. Which is it?

Had some trouble finding this (so would like a better source), but we had 80 hurries last year (5/game) and we have 18 this year (4.5/game). So its dropped off a bit, but I think the QB's we have played this year are superior to the average of last year. Concluding they were comparable is laughable. http://www.sportingcharts.com/nfl/stats/total-team-defensive-hurries/2015/

Brady lit them up as he has done to many Bills and other teams. Manning was 20-35 for 212 yards (almost 25% on one 2 yard throw) with 3 TDs. I don't think Manning lit them up. I have some reservations about the defense but I am in wait and see mode.

Also on the flip side how many teams do we play on short rest?

Great summary and thanks for the update on the Giant DB's. Can't wait for Sammy to be back (McCoy for that matter should help the running game too).

I will definitely take a FG. I think our offense can put up 7's this year. In the past I might have been concerned.

I'd take 100% odds in week 16 or 15 as well

I don't think they have picked up EJ's 5th year option yet so there isn't a renegotiate (I think this addresses your second point of less money over a longer period of time). They don't have to pick it either (as the word option implies). Just because they don't pick it up doesn't mean he won't play for us though. He could be extended on a new contract (at market value) or he could become a FA and still sign with us. I would like us to extend him without picking up the 5th year option. That option is really for first round draft picks that are successful (someone correct me if I'm wrong).

Have you Edelman/Gronk picks? They force contact with the DB. This DB takes a longer path to make a play on the ball because of Sammy's route, but he is not contacted. This was just poor coverage on a pick play. But this pick was not egregious at all. If this were Edelman/Gronk I would be pissed our coverage was playing so far off. Oh wait I am pissed at our coverage in that game. EDIT: Also if you think this should be flagged then I don't know what to do about any crossing routes. The nature of having all the route runners start on one side and try to get open in 2-4 seconds is that they will cross paths and be in clos proximity to each other.

I don't see Watkins contact with Shady's man at all unless you are telling me you think they were going to play a switch (in which case I think the DB on Watkins messed up because he was playing outside leverage). Watkins contacts his man after 5 yards in what could easily be a route. Yes this is a pick route. But it is not egregious at all.

I thought it showed great improvement that I knew we had it with over 8 minutes to go.

It was Hogan's for me. Too little time for them to comeback even with 100% 2pt conversions. Karlos's TD was just the icing.

Below are my adjustments. I like most of what you did. RB=P6 (preseason has me scared of RB's going down) RT=P3, LT=P3, OC=P3 (Basically we take best linemen available) OG=P4 (I am assuming Cog is resigned) DE, DT=P4 (while we are old I don't see us "needing" starter level production) OLB=P3 (I know we have some young guys that might pan out be I think this is a priority) ILB=P5 (I like the P5 category and was surprised you didn't use it. Think its perfect here. After round 3 Whaley will draft a good no name LB; plus Powell comes back next year) Agree with the rest particularly CB because I think Leo is gone
