    Will the Bills Make A Trade?

    I think some fans on here have unrealistic expectations. How many players are actually available for trade? How many can we afford into our cap? How many can be had at a decent value? The options are getting a little slim now aren’t they? 

    and also Beane has shown they will pay but Not overpay for players they value. SO if the price isn't right then no moves will be made. But do I rule it out? Not really I dont think they would be shy to pull the trigger if they deemed it a betterment of the roster AND at the right price. Churn that roster UP I root for the laundry. GO BILLS

    Don't think so, a signature win is a win against a top team in a given season. NE is not a top team, they look like garbage right now. McClappity had two chances to beat a couple top teams, he turtled in both of them. As he will likely do against the SeaHawks and Steelers...

    thank you for defining  what a signature win actually means to you. That to me is the crux of the matter. For ME what it would mean is that all 3 facets of the team excel and win  convincingly with no significant needs or deficiences in any 3 areas (offense defence and special teams) Unfortunatey the Bills haven't gotten there yet so by my definition such a plateau can't be reached until earliest next year.

    all my thoughts have been expressed in this thread already so to summarize my thoughts cohesively"

     

    1. Yes it was a penalty based on the part of the rule regarding "defenseless receiver" and that he lead with his shoulder and not his helmet isn't the point.

    2. Did I like the call at the time? NOPE. I thought it was a clean hard hit and since he didn't lead with his helmet thought there was no foul committed.

    3. Could Hyde have lowered his angle of hit to go lower? Maybe but these are live play conditions and his intent was NOT to injure.

    4. Would I feel the same way if a Bills receiver was hit that way and No penalty called? Of course Im biased but would like to think Id still think of it as questionable.

     

    I think this "defenseless receiver" penalty is in itself questionable. No Im NOT for players being injured but calls like we saw yesterday I think are borderline at best. Lets see how many receivers begin to take dives in hopes of drawing such a call if the ball is dislodged during a tackle and then we can discuss this further.

     

    The pussification of NFL football? An attempt to protect players? Both. It is what it is.

    Didn't see it and no replay

    whatever the penalty was it nearly cost the Bills that field goal  but the Bass hits a long one...again. The Bills need to come out and smash em in the mouth in this 2nd half...their play overall has been pretty inept with a few clutch plays by the rookie jackson..Jos Allen hot and cold...ball security dangit Josh.....you were lucky not to have been picked twice..LETS GO BUFFALO

    Why Did You Become a Buffalo Bills Fan?

    I think for me actually going to the first ever Monday night football game in the brand new Rich stadium made me a fan. It was also 1973 and the only NFL game I ever attended with my Mother.  It was against the KC Chiefs, Bills won and being in the Bills home game environment sealed the deal for me. That and the Batavia Party Zone endzone for many many games thereafter.

    This is weird now.  Pick a new name and move on.


    I thought the "Red Tails" was a great idea; easily transferable to cool logos, ties in the history of the Redskin name, but updates it to go from being racially biased to racially accepting....and the football team sits in one of the largest black communities in the country.

     

    You could even keep red as a dominant color in the uniform scheme.

     

    Just do it already!

    I'm on board with this although it will take educating some folks as to the names historical significance. To me it sounds like a win win.

    Add into the fact that Feliciano is likely back soon.

     

    And Maybe they are also liking what they are seeing from:

    Jonatthan Harrison

    Jordan Devey

    or Trey Adams

     

    And Decided to move on from a malcontent 

    sounds logical and as valid a take as any until we actually know what happened (If ever)......I like the optimistic slant too
