I thought abut this last night too, but not even YE OLE' had the cajones to post this and deal with the backlash that would ensue from this board. Props to OP for having the stones to post this. Ironically enough, I agree... I can totally see the other 3 teams losing out. Us winning out at this point... more unlikely I'm afraid. But, that being said, I think our toughest game left is New England this week and I can't say it's not winnable. Can anyone imagine this team HOSTING a playoff game?

Beuerlein got his MOJO workin! He got that MOJO workin!

Ohhhh it's sooo good! (Compulsory Mr. Food Reference) Paul Orndorf has officially joined the thread!

As you all know Steve Beuerlein is a SWEET commentator... My favorite bit of insight from Steve yesterday was clearly: "I'm not sure I understand why you take a dump over the middle to your back..."

You come 'round these parts DwightSchrute Root, talkin bad about these here Buffalo Bills? I don't like you DwightSchrute Root... I challenge you to a duel at HIGH NOON! And it don't bode well fer you city slicker, cuz Rowdy Ryan Fitzpatrick has the quickest draw in the AFC East!

Jeff Smith... he died in 2k4.

In reality, it was just a collection of Randy Moss quotes that Ye Ole' finds amusing. But, since thou dost protest, please unleash the San Jose Bills Fan brand of logic this board clamors for...

Freddie comes to us undrafted and Lynch costs a #12 overall pick. And the consensus is Fred is the better back. Amazing really... simply amazing.

Gotta love those moments... those moments are to be cherised Haven!

Best Randy Moss quotes of all time: "Can't nobody cover RRRRRRRANDY MOSS!" (gotta rrrrrrolll the R) "I have Ve-HICLES... you know me, I'm going to have Ve-HICLES..." "What was I thinking? Nothing, obviously. I did it, put the weeds to my lips. I devastated myself." The moral of this story? Don't put the weeds to your lips boys and girls!

Had no idea Promo. Truly a disgrace. Seems to me there was another one called THE URBAN PEASANT. Anyone recall that?

Anyone ever watch that show "The Frugal Gourmet?" Our O-Line reminds me of that show to a T. You take a bunch of inexpensive ingredients, but combine them to form an OH SO SAVORY dish. A savory dish that is our O-LINE.

BLUUUUUE!!!! CLOSE ENOUGH!!!!!!!! WASAAAAAAA B? WASABEEEE!!!!!!! Greatest Commercials... EVER

Right now the Bills are in a logjam of 5-8 teams that could leave us picking anywhere between 8-11 in the draft. That puts us in prime territory to land a Donte Whitner/Aaron Maybin type player to continue to bolster our squad. If Perry "Fossil" Fewell continues his run as interim coach landing a couple more wins, however, we could drop to the bottom half of the first round in that 16-18 range, what with all of the 6-7 teams ahead of us we could catch. Could be a choice pick come April! Here's hoping we can land another Donte Whitner type leader on D!

Can you take me hiiiiigher??!?!!!! As Donte whiffs yet again.

I wouldn't side with those who want to just dump Lynch per se, and agree that we need at least 2 good backs. That being said, however, there were multiple occassions once again when Lynch got a dump off pass or a pitch and immediately started juking and got nowhere. Now granted... these plays were not well blocked, but I thought to myself on each one of these occassions "If Freddie was in the game, he would've moved the chains..." And then the next series Freddie would come into the game... and he would move the chains. Jackson just always turns the ball upfield, takes what is there, and then the dude just flat gets slippery and gets 4 or 5 yards out of nothing. That's the difference between the two, and it's oh so important if we hope to have a winning team again.

Tampa Bay straight up busted that 5-2 in the late 80's/early 90's. Twas the shizzle. You need the personnel to do it, but, if you have it you can really create problems for the offense because you match up man to man across the line and doesn't allow for any double teams. Every single O-lineman has to be able to hold their ground man up, if they cannot... the play is busted. Even if they can maintain a hat on a hat, it's impossible to leak a guard out to take out a backer. Tampa did not have quality personnel when they ran this, but I feel the right grouping of personnel could pull this off. Assuming you got a Suh in the draft and pair him with a Marcus Stroud type DT, you could put in a Kyle Williams (or ideally a Ted Washington type NT) on the center and now the guards have to man up with Stroud and Suh. On an every down basis, how many guards are going to be able to hold their own one on one with Stroud or a player who could (I stress potentially, but he sure looks like the real deal) potentially be as dominant as Suh? Now everytime a guard doesn't stand these guys up one on one, there's pressure right up the gut and a busted play for the offense.

The reason the 5-2 would be successful: Offensive Formation: Split backs/1 TE Offensive Play: Ye Ole' Quick Pitch OR Offensive Play: Ye Ole' Play Action/Goin Yard Defensively, we align 3 DT's, 2 DE's, 2 LB's, and our standard 4 man secondary. The NOSE TACKLE lines up directly over Center, guards are left open, but LB's line up in their gap 4 yards from LOS, 2 DT's line up directly over tackles, 1 DE lines up over TE, 1 DE lines up uncovered. Result: Buffalo Bills Win

I'd like to implement YE OLE' 5-2 defense, similar to what Tampa Bay ran in the late 80's/early 90's.

The Tony Dungy Experience will provide full on COVER 2... Michael Vick scrambling around, eluding the pass rush, and a winning season. Upon a winning season in the B-LO, Dungy will earn the monaker of "THE DUNGY-MEISTER"

Cablelady's fin' to do her "booty go 'round n' rounds' while JP is in da CLUB, yo!

Ye Ole' went Incognito one time! WHOOO-AHHHHH

Indeed! BOOTY STANK, I tell you!
