1) Kelsay - this decision is not only performance based, but also cap related. 2) Puke Preston/Melvin Flower - the weakest spot on the OL and also a big reason why our running game fails to consistently produce. 3) Robert Royal - please get a TE that can be a legitimate threat! I grow tired of Royal's boneheaded mistakes at crucial times. 4) Keith Ellison - liability in the running game as well as the pass rush. A much needed upgrade could be used here, but fortifying the DL is IMO of greater importance. Players like Ellison could be made better with better pieces in front of him. 5) Ko Simpson - sorry, I liked this guy coming out, but it's painfully obvious that we need a ball hawking safety. Whitner rarely gets a finger on the ball and Simpson is always late to react. There you have it Bills fans, the top needs in order. Shore up these positions with some studs and we WILL be talking playoffs in 2009!

That's what you assume... Getting a first down would have served two purposes: 1) Getting Lindell in closer range. 2) Running the clock down to :03. There were still over 30 secs left when Lindell missed that kick. All Cleveland wouldve had to do is get into field goal range. Being a Bills fan, if you know anything you know that the seemingly impossible, is possible...

Also, when was the last time that Kelsay made a play? Who is this "Kelsay" that you speak of?? Does he play for the Bills? Seriously though, if his contract is not reworked at the end of this season, then he just needs to be cut. The contract that he signed in the first place should've been largely performance based. This team needs big, bad, mean, DEs in the worst way! Not $6-$7,000,000/year DEs who are light weight and generate little to no pressure.

Bruce Smith is the last DE that we've had who required 2 blockers. I cant recall the last time I saw Kelsay or Schobel double teamed. They both only have one pass rush move also - loop outside. When they try spinning back in ala Dwight Freeney, they are neutralized due to their lack of quickness. Also, neither are strong enough for the opposing LT/RT to take a bull rush seriously - leaving our high motor DEs with only one move: loop wide outside. We need a beast at DE, case closed...

What I dont understand is New York City's refusal to show a Bills game. Buffalo is more New York than the Jints/Jests yet they havent shown a Buffalo game the entire year Anyone know why they'd rather show games from across the nation, staying away from the regional Bills?

Or head over to the Bills bar in Manhattan - McFadden's and Calico Jacks. 42nd st and 2nd ave - It'll be my first time showing up on Sunday and they say that a couple hundred Bills fans come out to support the team.

Sigh... Was just dealt with one of my life's biggest blows - car just got stolen with pratically ALL of my clothes in it. In retrospect, it was incredibly stupid to load my car with my clothes (moving off of Staten Island) prior to leaving. If anyone is in the NYC area - maybe Staten Island specifically, look out for a dark green 1995 Toyota Camry - license plate T65 VBP. If you come across it, please call the police ASAP!! I am one of the last people that can afford this kind of setback at the moment

What 115 idiots rated the offense's performance as a D?! Have they been watching Bills football anytime within the last 14 years?!?!?!

Meh, looks like he's only running at 1/4 speed.

I agree, that first picture is ridiculously smooth. Post it on city-data.com, I think they give away stuff to the top pictures (I think).

Was Stroud and Schobel playing earlier?

Which defensive starters didnt start the game?

Hope to see a lot of that this year. Our achilles heal last year for sure.

To evaluate his worth to the team. No better time to find out than against other teams in the preseason...

People chill out!! It's only the first plays of the first drive of the first preseason game!

Anyone in Bills land have any experience with getting individuals to sign petitions? The one I'm involved with is asking to decrease the politicians salary in Lansing, MI by 25% and also drop their health care and benefits down to a level that is more consistent with the average MI resident. I have found that the Secretary of State Office can't order you to leave, so that is where I make my post on most days. Does anyone else have any great suggestions for locations to petition? I tried outside of the United States Post Office, but they claimed that the property was private and not public (I believe they're lying, I just dont know where to go to find the law). Are college universities fair game? Any help would be appreciated...

It wasnt really "surprisingly". JP had something to prove going into the game and I fully expected him to play well against the Bungles pass defense.

When does the over/under on victories come out in Vegas? If its anything like last year (over/under 6 wins), then Im putting a nice sum of cash on the fellas... Also, is it a 2-1 payout (Put down $1000 get back $2000)?

1st team all SEC and 2nd team All American G Robert Felton will supplant him. No worry, Puke Preston is on his way out...

I sure hope so. C and TE remain our biggest weaknesses.

I guess I dont share the same love for Donte Whitner as everyone else does... 1) Lynch 2) Evans 3) Parrish 4) Poz 5) Peters

30 sacks from the DE position?!?! From our current group of DEs?? 40 sacks from the DLine alone?? DreamOnDan...

The 2000 NFL Draft was by far the worst in recent memory: Rd. #1 - DE Erik Flowers Rd. #2 - FS Travares Tillman Rd. #3 - OLB Corey Moore Rd. #4 - WR Avion Black Rd. #5 - RB Sammy Morris Rd. #6 - DT Leif Larsen Rd. #7 - WR Drew Haddad Rd. #7 - OLB Dashon Polk

In that video, his separation from the DBs looked a lot like Lee Evans when Evans was in Wisconsin.

Haha, I remember that show. I was around 6 or 7 when it was on the air - 1986/1987 somewhere around there; isnt that correct? Everybody sing along - "Memories..."
