I do not believe it. You still do not have a QB worth a damn.

In fairness to ESPN's system (God - did I really just say that?), if not for the even more boneheaded play of the opposing QB, Sanchez's mistakes would have cost them the game. The total yards really do not matter. QBs put up big yardage numbers in losses all the time. I like that aspect of the new system. (Even if ESPN is a bunch of clowns)

He was only responding to the assetrion that "the Bills have a bunch of slow receivers", not nominating Easley for the hall of fame. (moot point anyway since he is lost for the year) In any case, try a liitle harder at reading comprehension before you refer to someone else as "idiotic".

I only saw him in at DE.

Only one problem with your gidiness over the Raiders passing game - Jason Campbell. I watched this shmuck play in DC and he is mediocre at best. A turnover machine when the pressure is on. Stop the run and the Raiders are in trouble. I expect a tough game, but the Bills will get ahead and then its game over. 24-13 Bills.

Update for you through week 1 - Willis McGahee, 4 attempts, 3 yards, team lost Lee Evans - 4 passes thrown to, 0 completions, team won Incognito - his team lost, who really cares. Oh by the way, the Bills won 41-7 in case you have not heard with Jackson rushing for 112, 4 passing TDs without Lee Evans, and no sacks give by our guards, no penalties by the guards, and plenty of rushing room.

Very nice. The effort is much appreciated. I am pumped for a victory today - go Bills!

20 - 9 Bills.

Oh really? Then why did Whitner turn down contract offers from the Bills even before the lockout, and why did Poz go to Jax? Because they wanted to be here? According to Poz's agent the Bills made a very good offer but he chose to play in the 4-3 at Jax, and for perhaps other reasons. I cannot see any blame to the Bills for that. Whitner wanted rediculous money from the Bills and went the free agency route, but did not get even what the Bills reportedly offered.

Nice job JW.

Here is a newsflash - all teams are out to make money. They are business enterprises afterall. Some teams have much more money to spend and still be profitable. Jacksonville is at the bottom of the barrel revenue wise, a failing franchise. The bills have avoided the bottom due in part to the Toronto deal and in part because there are real fans (unlike Jacksonville)who continue to support the team by coming to games. So even though Buffalo has cheap ticket prices, no personal seat licenses, and a dearth of corporate sponsorship dollars, they are able to stay in business. The Jags cannot afford an $8 million QB who deoes not figure in their long term plans. No surpise there.

If they address OL depth in the next week or so, Moats may be the first cut. Like you said, he is third string inside or outside right now. They are not through tinkering with the lineup yet.

I do not understand the man love for this guy around here. He is a fringe player at best, evidenced by his bouncing around the league. He will likely be cut by New Orleans as well when their real RB gets healthy. Better than Spiller? Better than White? You people need some perspective.

I watched the game his morning and do not see what the OP was talking about. I thought Troup looked pretty good myself, much better than last year. I think he is coming along nicely.

Very well said. +1 I think the point on this was career punt return average. He did not happen to break one for the first 8 games he played last year before getting hurt. One long return changes this completely.

I like straight up.

We will probably never know what happened between Polian and Wilson that led to his departure. Maybe Polian will write a memoir some day but until then it is conjecture. One thing people tend to forget is that Polian was operating in Pre-salary cap days, and the Bills were big spenders at the time to keep their core together. Butler came in continuing that approach with the cap to the point that in the years following his departure, theBills were in salary cap hell. Also, as I recall it, Wilson tried during Butlers contract year to negotiate a new deal and Butler refused to discuss it. It was widely believed at the time that Butler had a handshake deal in place with San Diego, but clearly he wanted to leave. Was that because of Wilson, or because the Bills we in major trouble with the cap and were headed for a downslide because of it. Perhaps he just did not want the challenge of cleaning up the mess he created. As for Smith, Butler took him with him. He was not fired as I recall.

It is a question we will be forced to answer soon enough. I suspect that if the team does in fact get moved after RW dies, a more than good possibility, you would be hard pressed to find too many fans who would say"oh well, they sucked anyway". I am not ashamed to admit I am much happier to have had Bills football as part off my life for the last 50 years than not to have had that opportunity; warts, disappointments, infuriating moments and all.

I think he is being a baby and selfish and not showing any class or leadership. It seems my opinion is in the minority here, and I understand the arguements, I just generally do not like it when players spout off like this and put themselves before the team. It is highly counterproductive, even if he has reason to feel slighted. Very disappointing from Fred Jackson IMO - I thought better of him frankly.

If that is what you think you are free to be a fan of some other team. The OP and the many of us like him who have lived through many ups and downs, and far worse Bills team than the current (and far better) are also free to be fans and continue to hope for the best and look forward to a turnaround. It is very tiring listening to the constant unconstructive whining. My suggestion is to enjoy it while it lasts because sometime soon this team will be elsewhere. Then you can be a Pats fan full time if that is what you want.

How is 4 years/7.5 million for Jackson a lowball? They renegotiated a contract with him despite the fact he was locked in, and was not even a starting running back on the team. He has been treated just fine. I am not sure this is an issue except in the minds of a few fans. I do not hear Jackson complaining. As for Spiller starting, Gailey said it was to get a sense of how far he has progressed. Myabe we should take him at his word until we see some evidence to the contrary?

If they wanted to throw a 7 th rounder at him in the supplemental draft I would not throw up, but anything else's a complete waste. Pryor is very unlikely to ever be an NFL player and has no chance of being a QB.

Obviously, I missed the sarcasim. My bad. Too serious this morning I guess.

Yes, if only we had picked up a cut twice retread LB we would be a much better team. Buddy must be asleep. Are you serious?

Agreed. Not an issue of being a "homer" as some suggest - this article is just bad. Highly inaccurate observations.
