He could always do porn like the Octomom.

I'll vote nay. Flutie's magic was only worth 10 to 13 points a game throughout most of that season. Tennessee wouldn't have needed the officials to hand the game over to them, because Flutie would have obliged with his usual one fumble, two pick performance. I was fine with Wade's choice to go with Johnson that day. Say what you will about whether Good Flutie might have shown up...but Johnson did what he was supposed to do to win the game.

Ryan Broyles. He's probably the best Oklahoma receiver of the Bob Stoops era, and would be a perfect slot receiver in a spread package for Buffalo. He's undersized and coming off a torn ACL, but he recovered quickly enough to host his Pro Day just a few weeks ago, five months after his surgery. He lacks burner speed, but he's excellent at separation, can take hits over the middle and he is a gifted punt returner. I don't know if the third round is too soon for him, but as a fourth round selection he'd be the best third-day bargain out there.

You sound like a North Korean. In America, if I want to say I hate this ridiculous tune that nobody can sing (failing the first prerequisite to be a unifying anthem) and won't stand up for it, then THAT's being an American, too. Our wretched anthem is only reverential because it's been beaten into our skulls since birth. We could change the anthem to "Welcome to the Jungle" tomorrow and in 30 years, people would still stand up and weep for joy as the flag is raised (this time also pounding their ThunderStix together).

I think it'll be a repeat of last year's New Orleans or Tennessee game. A low-scoring first-half affair -- maybe 10-3 or 13-10 -- with the Bills defense playing above their heads while the offense pulls off a surprise play or two (a fake punt, or a Fred Jackson TD pass). Late in the third, the Pack finally finish off a six-minute TD drive that takes the spirit out of the D...and the Pack soon have 40 points on the board after a couple of pick sixes and special teams turnover.

Haven't the Bills actually followed the "bottoming out" strategy this year that JS would recommend? They did not draft a serious QB prospect or sign Jake Delhomme or Derek Anderson as stopgap starters. They gutted the wide receiver corps behind Lee Evans to a fleet of inexperienced question marks. They didn’t break the bank on any impact free-agent linebackers or linemen. They didn’t replace their leading pass rusher. If the Bills end up winning 6-8 games this year, you can’t say they weren’t not trying.

No, I'd have to agree it's been about 10 years. He, and OU fans, are not happy with Sun Bowl or Cotton Bowl wins.

Just correcting some loony posts earlier claiming Bomar was a stud at OU, or would have been better than Bradford. Obviously not. (Bradford's second game as a redshirt frosh? He put 51 on the board against Miami). Bomar WAS probably the greatest QB in the history of Sam Houston State...or so I heard. Here's the extent of his immortal SHS career available on Youtube: As for the Holiday Bowl, he was chosen by absolute default (barely 200 yards passing, a TD and a pick). You're welcome to check for yourself how happy Stoops was at the end of that game.My link

I'm not a regular poster here, but as an Oklahoma fan I thought I'd share a few thoughts on Bomar. I saw all his games his freshman year at Oklahoma. While it's fair to say he was raw and probably wasn't ready to take over the team, he never showed he was the No.4 prospect in the country, either. He was fast and could run, but he was a 50 percent passer most of the year. He was a complete numbskull at protecting the ball--he fumbled four times at UCLA, for instance--and was so bad early in the season, Stoops didn't dare let him throw a ball in the entire second half of his second game against a patsy Tulsa team. The big knock on Bomar as the year wore on was that he wasn't all that committed to the film room or listening to instruction. Stoops had to turn off the aerial circus that year because Bomar, otherwise, would have thrown away several more games (he almost lost to Baylor in OT, at Norman). Bomar was such a disappointment not because he got booted off the team, but because the guy wasted all the blue-chip talent he had around him: Adrian Petersen, Malcolm Kelly, Manuel Johnson and Juaqin Iglesias. His last game was a perfect ending to his career as a Sooner: while running out the clock on Oregon in the Holiday Bowl, Bomar got an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty by spiking the ball after the kneel-down. OU had to hike it one more time from their half-yard line. Stoops was so pissed he almost made Bomar walk home to Norman.

I'd want to watch the December '75 matchup with Miami again. We were so rooked by the non-call on Mercury Morris' fumble.

All true, although the concussion was over two years ago and I don't recall that he was knocked out at all. He was back the next week (and maybe he was just toughing it out, unwisely). If he's got problems with his shoulder during the workouts, then he's a concern. But all this injury prone tag makes it seem like he's had chronic TE/RJ problems.

About Bradford: enough of the "injury prone" talk. He's had one shoulder injury that plenty of QB's have come back from (he should have had the surgery in September before aggravating it vs. Texas). In his two previous seasons, he survived beatings against some tough D's (Texas, Florida, TCU and W Va.), and he made it through this hit against OSU. The ONLY time he had to come out early was against TTech in '07, when he was dinged with a mild concussion trying to recover his RB's fumble in the first quarter. You might dismiss some of his numbers vs. Big 12 tombstone secondaries, but he's not a Glass Joe.

But you're wife wasn't right either. Flutie was atrocious in losses vs. Seattle, the Jets, Raiders and Giants, where his turnovers and inaccuracy (he was 28th that year in completion percentage) cost us a playoff home game, and probably the division. Looking back, we were all like two kids arguing whether our ice cream needed asparagus or spinach.

It wasn't a meaningless game for Indy. They had to win to have a chance to win the No.1 seed over the Jaguars.

It's not only Byrd's right arm that's been oversized...look at his jersey number: 31
