If I had a nickle for every great game a player had in the 4th quarter of the 4th preseason game...You sure that's what you want to hang your hat on? Right, because football coaches are known to tell the truth to stupid questions

If you would have asked me before pre-season I would have said 9 or 10. Given that none of our WRs have stepped up, our line looks all-time bad, and Tremaine appears like the game is a bit too much for him right now, I think realistically we're in 3-4 territory unless Murphy transforms the D, or this o-line learns how to play NFL football. I think the NFL is going to be very strong this year as a whole, and we're one of very few teams that doesn't have something they can hang their hat on. I think we get flashes of great play at various points, but ultimately come up short a lot due to inconsistency and the oline.

It wasn't a bargain when Haynesworth got a similar deal nearly a decade ago. This deal won't look good 20 years from now even if he maintains current production. It's just an insane amount of the cap to give up for 1 player and all but ensures all their depth will have to be rookie or vet minimum deals.

Unless they do it in the next two years, this move ensures the rams are completely screwed for the next 6 years. kiss your Super Bowl hopes goodbye, LA.

We've kept numerous rookies on IR that seemed to stub their toe getting off a plane. Can't recall any of them ever working out long term, but wouldn't be shocked to see him there.

It's a fantastic town as long as you can learn to handle the heat.

Definitely. I made less money coming back to Buffalo after a promotion and 4 years experience than I did as a fresh grad of 3 weeks in Seattle. I effectively capped the salary range for my profession in Buffalo at age 25. I immediately doubled my salary upon moving to Austin.

Buffalo's a great town to be from, but a hard place to live if you ever spent time anywhere else. The job market sucks for anything remotely 21rst century. I've moved away 3 times, but I have a feeling I'll always find my way back. Haven't been back to see anyone in 4 years, do it's probably time to stop in. Right now I just can't afford to live there and make a living, but maybe 50 years from now when my student debt is paid off I can die at Nick's diner eating a ham skillet breakfast.

3rd round pick in hockey <= 7th round pick in football

It's so insane to me that no matter what team Fitzpatrick goes to, no matter how down the depth chart or how entrenched the starter, he always finds a way to start football games in this league. It's like watching Vinny Testaverde all over again, and I love it for the guy.

I hated the pick when we made it because he was slow in college, and didn't play with the kind of fierce tenacity you like to see out of a premier de. Unless something changes and he becomes unlockable, I don't see him becoming anything more than a bottom of the rotation player on bad football teams.

Forget stats. He's the only QB that doesn't look like a deer in the headlights and can move the chains. The only reason it's taking this long is because McBeane desperately wants to validate selling the farm to draft a raw prospect 7th overall. It's ego and nothing more. It hasn't been a close competition at any point since the draft.

Unless he pulls a Paxton Lynch.

Did you watch him play today? Or maybe any other game? He's horrific.

If that were the case he would have been gone or there would have been a 4th QB in camp. This thread is getting sadder by the day, as Peterman's inevitable rise to Bill's starting QB is all but sealed.

Hoped, didn't expect. I figured the Bills have been so unlucky with regards to QB over the last 25 years, maybe they could catch lightning in a bottle.

If AJ is the starter after 1 average and 1 terrible game, god help us. He's been the worst of the QBs we have. Shown absolutely nothing. I really hoped he could be our Jimmy G.

Murphy should be stealing carries from McCoy day #1. Behind this line and with a 30 year old McCoy, it's going to be critical to keep RBs fresh, and Murphy might even have more straightline speed right now.

I noticed in Embedded Part 1 Tre White was making fun on him being an old man with how all of his joints creak when he walks. Probably just a young guy poking the vet, but maybe he really is just broken down.

What does it say for Allen that he can't even do that? Is he going to all of a sudden light it up when games matter? This isn't Aaron Rodgers were talking about here. He's a rookie trying to prove he should be better than third string. Face the facts : Allen's preseason stats are near exact to his college average. He's no better now than he was then. We all hope that changes, but it sure as hell hasn't yet.

He probably gets to play the whole game.

I know it's none of my business, but I really, really, reallllly want to know what happened between him and Jonathan Martin now. The whole thing has come full circle. Initially you had this former star prospect from stanford getting bullied by a guy that was a known locker room cancer, then you had Martin looking completely looney toons and getting arrested twice for threatening to shoot places up, while Richie looks like a model citizen back in Buffalo, and then you had this bizzare downward spiral from Richie that makes you question what the hell is going on with these guys. Where's Cyrus Kuandjio running naked through a hay field when you need him?

I have an engineering degree...I also know a billionaire who claims to have gone to the Wharton school of finance that I'm 100% positive is dumber than some people that don't have two nickels to rub together
