Toledo Bill

It seems that trading Parrish is a popular idea right now. What I am anxious to see is with TO and Evans at the wide outs and Reed in the slot, if we bring in Parrish as a 4th reciever, the matchups would be very favorable to us. He is so effective in the open field, I think TO's signing will lead to Parrish having a great year.

Thanks... a one year contract makes all the sense in the world for this guy.

Does a one year NFL contract allow the team to make the player either a restricted or unrestricted player the following year?

On an interception return. When it happened, you knew he was done.

James would absolutely blanket a receiver. He never needed help in coverage. It is a shame you didn't get to see him, you missed one of the best ever.

Not trying to be a smart ass, but did you ever see Robert James play? He was the original shut down corner. Best corner I saw in the history of the Bills. I was at the game when he blew out his knee; what a shame. As always, just my two cents.

Thanks... I haven't had much time to keep up. I just check this site and Fox Sports when I have time. I had not seen anything on Fox.... probably just missed it.

I had not seen that. Got it!

Thanks... I must be overestimating his value. I only heard of Seattle talking to him.

Has there been any reports of him signing with Seattle or anyone else? In certain ways, this guy reminds me of Andre Reed. He would be a great weapon along side Evans. I am surprised we haven't brought him in for a visit (not really).

Proof again that we are dealing with marketers and business people (poor ones) instead of football people...

Regarding the "staying in the lineup on passing downs", he should have come out on passing downs. I agree with the accolades he gets for leadership and tackling, but he was consistently picked on and beat in pass coverage (at least during his tenure here).

Nantz even gushed about the singing of the National Anthem. Why can't they pick singers that will just sing it the way it was intended? There are certainly worse announcers than Nantz but I get a little tired of him.

I understand what you are saying but Kosar sure helped lay the groundwork. Belichick got zero support and a bunch of headaches from Kosar. Maybe he was fired by the BALTIMORE RAVENS but the die was cast in Cleveland.

The press AND Kosar ran him out of town.

52 years old and a life-long Bill's fan. I moved out of the Buffalo area in 1979 but my family has had season tickets since the 60's. I attend games when possible and never miss a game on Direct TV. I will always be a Buffalo sports fan and regardless what happens I start each year with renewed hope. I have NEVER been a Ralph Wilson fan and feel the Super Bowl years were a case of all the stars being aligned. He has always been a cheap owner that hires cheap coaches. Two Harvey Johnson regimes, Hank Bullough, Kay Stevenson, etc. Ralph Wison for the Hall of Fame... what a joke! I think you have proposed an interesting question to the group, I have figured the older fans would always be loyal and although frustrated, have become somewhat hardened to mediocracy. Buffalo fans are a hardy group yet I understand some fans getting frustrated and "cutting ties" with the team. I just can't do that; I love the city of Buffalo and will always support their sports teams. An interesting point... during the Super Bowl years I would expect we picked up a decent percentage of our fan base. Just my two cents, but I would imagine that is the group that is more often than not willing to "cut bait". I am not saying one group of fans is better or more loyal than any other... just my best guess.

Actually... this is the Ralph Wison that always existed. The Super Bowl years were an exception. Through the prior three decades to the 90's we saw the same Ralph Wison we have seen the past 10 years or so.

When Losman fumbled, I did not throw anything, I did not swear, I just started laughing hysterically. My God, after 40 years of being a Bill's fan... I am not surprised by anything. I will always support them but the madness never ends!

Lynch did not have his head in the game and yet our outstanding coaching staff just decided NOT to use Freddy. Makes perfect sense??????

Unless I am mistaken, we were lamenting our lack of a pass rush while he was healthy...

I couldn't agree more. I don't attribute Miami's improvement to just Parcells; their coach is always fired up, yelling and motivating his players, also. Jauron's style just doesn't seem motivational.

I did not see it, but if it followed a fair catch, I believe the team making the fair catch has the option of free kick. I do not know if this is available all game or just under two minutes.

Does anyone else think that these comments contributed to the running plays where he just kept lowering his head (showing real courage and a little lack of sanity) on his running plays? I know all of the comments regarding Monday pertained to the passing game but I think he really wanted to prove his leadership and courage today. Good for him, I admire his efforts but hope he tones down the running just a little bit. I think his effort set a tone that his teamates have to admire.

The NFL generally does not compete with a Sunday evening World Series game.

we whine about a "lack of national respect", please remember this game. An awful exhibition from the team and the coaching staff.
