  1. If you're a prominent public figure, wouldn't you avoid doing something like this? Really?
  2. I am a huge NFL fan and have never, and will never, watch a Pro Bowl. It should be an honor and they should not play the game. The other sports can play a variant of their game (no defense) and have fun in their All-Star games but you can't play football right without serious risk of injury. Axe the game; retain the awards.
  3. I don't think Marv was ever acting GM. He was a figurehead. HE may have made the final call on a few things but he listened to his Lieutenants.
  4. The Pats could have all 7th round picks and do better than the Bills in recent years. Their organization is incredible.
  5. Great. Another unproven reach.
  6. They were likely worse than you think. With close games over Oakland, St. Louis, and Jacksonville--all drafting ahead of the Bills in 2009--the Bills were nearly a 4 win team. The Bills had a JV schedule this year outside the division. Does anyone honestly think they could have competed with Pittsburgh, Tennessee, the Giants, Baltimore, etc.?
  7. Open Drano. Open mouth. Drink.
  8. Setting aside coaching which is obviously the root of the problem, our O-line is so fat and slow that they can't get downfield. Look at any long run this season and you'll see that it happened after the RB hit the line and bounced outside on his own. Pulls and pitches are not possible. A screen is a dream because the lineman have no chance to get downfield, and that includes Peters. The Bills need to be careful replacing lineman because the best lines are those that have played together. I think they should replace center and also Dockery. Leave the other 3 in place. Changing more than 3 lineman will be disaster.
  9. Maybe the fourth time's a charm.
  10. That the Cowboys have a QB named Romo is proof that God exists and loves us.
  11. At some point in the season, I decided to make my comments in your "Thoughts" thread so thanks for it. I count on this thread to have most of the important topics covered. RE Peters. I continue to find Peters overrated. Chambers played well in EVERY game he played for Peters, which I think was 4. That isn't me running Peters out of Buffalo, but I saw enough of his awful play--especially stupid plays--to remain unconvinced that he's worth top dollar. Is he good? Yes. Great? No. The biggest reason I want him to get a contract extension is continuity. RE Dockery. He's junk. If he wasn't under such an onerous contract, I'd say cut him now. RE Jackson. At some point in the season, I said he was a better RB than Lynch. By that I don't mean that he's as strong, just that he's smarter hitting the holes and makes himself small and hard to hit. If I was running the Bills, I'd try to do everything I could to make room for him. RE Edwards. It was an up and down year. I don't blame him for all the bad plays; clearly Schonert blows. That said, he had some poor moments too. In all, I think he earned the right to be the unequivocal 2009 starter. For those who think he stinks because he never attempts a downfield pass, remember that even when JP played, there were no downfield plays, and we all know JP loves to throw deep. Blame the play-calling. RE off-season. Priorities, in this order: COACH Center, at least one pass-rushing DE, Guard (to replace or at least drive--haha--Dockery) a bigger WR ... Those are the biggies, after that, I'd say re-sign Jackson a good MLB DT (though Kyle Williams can stay as backup...he has his moments), a TE (they are hard to come by so who knows if there will be any), a veteran backup QB, a FB.
  12. He meant bring him out of retirement. Either way, he was an Eagles coach for longer than he was with the Jets.
  13. WTF? I am trying to watch the red zone channel and it's back on the Bills game after that punt??!!!? COME ON!
  14. The Bucs are sealing things up against Oakland so the Eagles are done too.
  15. Because they haven't been running well. Really: Who didn't know that would be a pass?
  16. Faulk splits 3 tackers to get the first.
  17. If triple fools 'em, why not a sextuple reverse?
  18. So you're another genius who wants a long pass play call or triple reverse?
  19. You're right. The more pass plays the better. Especially a Hail Mary. Trick plays always work...I wonder why no one ever uses them. Jauron needs a new OC: you're hired!
  20. This ball won't make it anywhere near McKelvin unless he's standing at the 40.
  21. Lot of Pats fans there. Nice.
  22. Why? Because Jackson is over 100 yards with most of it to the left side and the NE defense knows they are running every play? I see no dropoff.
  23. He'd have had to hold on to it for 5 more seconds to call it a JP. When the rush gets to you as you set to throw, it's just a sack/fumble.
  24. The ball was out before Evans made his break.
  25. Why would the officials be at fault? The Bills ran the ball in the middle of the field with no TOs. The half ends as it should. BTW, it was 3rd down on the run so the Bills could not even spike the ball.
