Mike Vick went to prison because he was stupid enough to finance (and basically own) a company whose sole source of income was through illegal means. killing dogs may not nessasaraly be illegal, however torturing a dog IS illegal. Training a dog to fight and locking them into a confined space with another dog trained to fight, and then watching them injure and kill eachother is generally consitered a form of torture. This story is big for the following reasons: - Vick was a face of the NFL and known world wide. - Vick personally killed/tortured animals. He wasnt just sending checks to people, he was participating in the torture and deaths of animals. - Many people find abusing animals (dogs in particular) to be worse than abusing people. for example, several NFL players have been acused of domestic violence with little mention of it on ESPN. - Vick was/is rich. People LOVE to see rich people lose their money. So what he did was bad, and made "THAT bad" by his fame and peoples love for dogs. There is to much anger agenst him to make him your #1 QB and put his face on a billboard with your teams logo on it. Hes a QB, not a WR or RB. All other positions have backups who participate on the field for atleast a few plays a game. Noone would sign him as a back up and take the heat for a guy who would realistically get no time on the field. So I dont see him playing in the NFL until the public opinion of him changes somehow.

He definatly got in to the Probowl based on his name, rather than his performance. That said, quality OTs are hard to find, and when you do find them, they are expensive. If we do not pay him, then we need to replace him, which would invlove eather putting in a less tallented player at that position, or finding a new high priced OT who we would have to pay anyways. All I know is that I dont want him to sit at home every day untill the saturday before week 1. He simply sucked for the first 1/4 of last season, but did eventually get better as the season went on, at the expense of our QB . Pay him, and sign a damn good center and I will like our O-ling going into next season. Though RG is still a problem, but would cost to much to fix.

The bills definatly need a TE. But with the Oklahoma TE not entering the draft, no other TE is worthy of a 1st rounder, much less one as high as ours. Looks like we will have to suffer another year without a TE. Most likly the bills will draft a DE in the 1st. But the bills HAVE to sign a FA center, and determin if Crowell is healthy enough to play like he was playing before the injury.

Stroud is a beast and the reason our run D has stepped up. That said, I have noticed that K. Williams making plays and tackles along that line. I believe he was the one who pressured Rivers to throw that INT in the endzone last week, and I remember a number of running plays where he made teh tackle along the line. Great to see our DTs getting some good attention for a change. That hasnt happened since the other Williams left a number of years ago.

The pass rush was better because we moved our LBs around a lot and hid what we were going to do. Last week they lined up 5 yards back and backpeddled at each snap. This week we blitzed more and hid our blitzes.

I thaught they said Fowler was out for the Chargers game. Did he even play?

How about Bobble Head. Because the first time I remember seeing him play in a bills uniform, his body was so small compared to his head, he looked like a bobble head doll running down the field. You can never go wrong when you give the ball to roscoe

He doesnt have record breaking passing yards or TDs. If the bills win the division and only lose 3 or so games and keeps up his great passing completion and 4th quarter play, he should get in. though if Favre wins 8 games he is a lock. And Cutler is putting up crazy numbers.

rivalry game. in their stadium. I think it will be close, but after last week, I would be surprised... and devistated... if the bills lost to miami. I !@#$ING HATE MIAMI!!!

I was born in 1981. My earliest memories of the Bills was watching the first SB game agents the Cowboys. All I really remember from that game, other than us losing, was me saying out loud, "why doesnt someone just walk over and hit their QB after a play? Its only one penalty...". My parents didnt really like that at all...

You defiantly can not blame JP for this loss. He played better than anyone could expect a backup QB to play in that situation. We did see why Edwards is the starter, with JPs slow progression, but I would love to keep JP as the backup next year (though that just wont happen). The bills inability to stop the Cards on 3rd down lost this game. Maybe if edwards was in the game the bills may have been able to keep up with the cards offence, but I dout it. The D just plain sucked. We did well agenst the run, but the cards just passed over and over. It was obvious throughout the game the defense would just drop back and wait for an INT. But our front 4 could not put ANY pressure on Warner. He even tripped in the endzone and had enough time to get up and throw the ball away. Warner will throw INTs, but vet NFL QBs who get that much time make plays. We busted Warners jaw open, but stopped blitzing after that. We didnt even discise it. This loss is completly on our D. On the bright side, when is the last time we got our first loss of the season in week 5? I think I may have been 13 at the time.

"You got to be a stupid mother!@#$er to get fired on your day off." -Friday so he misses 1 game, agenst the seahawlks, who they will crush comming off thier bye week. no big deal. Dont players go home for a few days on their bye week anyway? its like my boss suspending me on friday afternoon for 2 days, and expects me to return on monday. no big deal for the team or the player. The team just wanted to prove a point.

LT is not a power back, but that does not mean he is not a dominant back. LT is a HOF RB. If people cant see that, then there is nothing I can say to make them change their minds.

The money they are paying the bills will make up for it. Also, I think most of the people in the stands will be bills fans. I would have liked to play our division rivals at home in the winter, but if it keeps the bills in buffalo I will live with it. At least it will still be cold, and maybe even snow

I have watched all the episodes so far. The first show seemed a bit cheesy, but interesting. I expect a lot from HBO. IMO, the first few shows are not on par with the likes of the Sopranos, the Wire, deadwood, Entourage, or even Big Love. They have a built in audience for vampires, but with that comes high expectations for a quality show. I like it so far, but they defiantly need to tone down the overly cheesy things.
