I found it odd that the title of Maiorana's article refers to a new role for FJ, but then never defined what that new role will be. Kirwan's article was much more explanatory (eg., the "20" formation with FJ & Spiller on the field at the same time).

This year I'll be wearing my new #15 Kemp jersey. After buying Trent Edwards and Fitz jerseys, I decided to go classic and buy something that I'll never be embarrassed to wear.

Is this about thinking with your heart or is there some specific information you received that has brought the arrival of this excitement?

Now that was a predictable post. But your point is correct.

Did the Bills bucks come in the same mailing with the tickets, or did the Bills bucks come in a completely separate mailing? I got my tix today (2 clubs and 2 sideline first level) and there were no Bills bucks to be found.

At the very first game I took my son to, an in-stadium cameraman approached us and told us that at the next break he'd put my son on the Jumbotron. While we were waiting for the break, the guy next to me gave me the idea to pull out my camera to snap a photo of the scoreboard. What a great idea! So I was able to snap a photo of my son on the Jumbotron. The kid has been to something like 5-6 games and has made the Jumbotron + plus NFL Network (pregame tailgate). How ridiculous is that?

Does anyone know whether Bills bucks can be used at training camp?

Good question. Having the data available is only one part of the equation. Another part is, how do the coaches use the data? Do they misuse or overuse the data? Do they succumb to paralysis by analysis? Would be interesting to know, but I think for the most part we'll never know how the data is used.

Just curious, did you get more Bills bucks this year than last? I have a pair of club seats also and think I got somewhere in the range of $50 last year. Or does it have to do with whether you're in your "contract year" as I am?

From bb.com. Interesting that they are tracking players' exertion levels during practice. I'm sure Marrone is looking into whether they can use it the same way, but in reverse, during games. I can see it now - Marrone is handed a chart on the sideline then says to Dareus, "Hey Marcell, your numbers just aren't cutting it. Have a seat."

I'm pretty sure that Naaman is Cherokee for "he who runs in sand".

Is it possible that Nix was assembling a roster based on the requests of a different staff running a different defense?

I think he had an ACL last year.

Very well done. I enjoyed some of the Jack Kemp clips I had not seen before.

I thought it has been reported that Gilmore will NOT match up with the opposing team's best receiver, but will just stay on one side of the field the entire year. If this is true, there must be some tactical reason for it, but apparently Gilmore hasn't bought into it if he is piping up about this.

A bit of an injury risk but worth considering.

Wide angle shot of the crowd shows all heads turning from jw towards C81...

What good is having your honor restored if the masses don't know it's restored?

Surprising to me that Marrone would be so open about his projection on Rogers (or any player).

Final bump.

It was my understanding that the guy that wore the wire for the FBI (I think posing as a new employee) was on tape asking a coworker if Haslam knew about the scheme, and the coworker said yes.

Russell was suspended indefinitely so by definition it's too early to know that that penalty was too light.

No doubt this is true. What GM would take this guy to be the leader/face of his franchise, with all the pressure that entails? Those are some expensive drinks he is enjoying.

Duh! You are correct sir. If someone can show me how to edit the thread title, I will change it accordingly.

OK, it now shows up when I search my DVR for upcoming recordings, but when I look it up on the guide it isn't showing on NFL Network at that time. I guess time will tell if it will record or not.
