Scott Norwood to be in attendance on Sunday
Tcali replied to SHOUTBOX MONSTER!'s topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
right on the money -
A Rod finally had a great postseason then... But its hard to take a guy who was on Roids for all his big number years that seriously.

A New Domed Bills Stadium in the Falls?
Tcali replied to ChevyVanMiller's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Niagara Falls NY is a pit. However the Indian rez to the east would be a good place for an open air stadium.....with Buffalo Bill Cody type wild West shows at the half or before or after games--or even as their own main event.Build a couple of old west towns near there as well...Would be an international/worldwide attraction.Bring back the old west thru this venue.People would flock there from Europe and asia. Smoke signals on game day ...and perhaps at other important days of the year or at different events there. Reasonable access for Rochester and Canada. -
Do the bills have the best O-line in the NFL?
Tcali replied to buffalover4life's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Makes sense.Huge upgrade.That is the main reason for the improvement.I'd add a dash of Chan's/ Fitzy's evolution + getting past the chaos of last yr(esp the first half)to the recipe. -

Tcali replied to buffalover4life's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
The Bills certainly have one of the best run blocking O-lines in the league. The pass protection is improving;but some of that improvement is due to Fitzys game evolving under the direction of Chan.A few teams have gotten a real strong push on us so far this year--which was offset by Chans play calling and Fitzys quick decison making.Slightly above average and improving for the pass protection.Top 5 run blocking. -
actually...found the big boy very entertaining and well spoken...

Official Bills vs Redskins game thread
Tcali replied to Just Jack's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
that shoulda been 7--that was a duck ..fitzy does enough other things well though -
User fees OK---that makes sense. Bonds???--thats New york State(and /or erie county) getting deeper into debt.NYS/E countie deeper in debt means the poor slob taxpayer will get hit for the $ again in one form or another.I'd just like to see it done another way if possible. I live in CA where these magical 'BONDS' paid for everthing..until CA got so in debt that they started proposing BONDS just to pay off present debt obligations and other current expenses. Talk about a state sanctioned ponzie scheme.

New York state is how far in debt?...and how big of a present gap is there betw present tax revenues and present costs to run the govt? Perhaps the billionaire(s) who buy the Bills could possibly pony up the $ in xchange for partial ownership. I realize this is a bit simplistic..-But New york State can't even come close to fulfilling its basic obligations at this point in time--let alone the pensions that they wont be able to pay in a very few years. A tax increase on already overtaxed NYS citizens may not be the wisest way to get this thing done.

I know it's early but Next year's draft ...

I like it a lot.Now thats a Pittsburgh kinda draft. -
Fitz has agreed to 6yr 59Mill Contract
Tcali replied to buffalo1983's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Yes he CAN make those throws---but he needs to really wind up and heave it as hard as he can. So his protection better be good and the play better develope very quickly--because he cant throw the ball that short distance with a flick of the wrist like many high school QBs can even do. Fitzy is in the top 1/3 of QBs in this league.he usually gets it done.I'd rather have him than some slow thinking,slow moving QB with a cannon. -

Tcali replied to buffalo1983's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
fitz's signing is a no-brainer.its a good move.we have a good QB here finally. not the worlds greatest talent--but many plusses incl good athleticism, ability to hit receivers in stride across the middle 5-20 yards down the field,quick decision maker(usually),gets rid of ball quick so makes our pass protection look better than it is,doesnt sulk,doesn't give up/fold when under pressure. a bad QB situation can ruin a franchise for years. so while some may think '10 mil/yr for Fitz???'-its really a small price to pay for a QB that gives you a chance to win each week.--.....Just be sure to cover your eyes when he tries to throw that long out pattern---or when we're on our own 45 and its hail mary time-pray for a good wind gust. -

Fitz has agreed to 6yr 59Mill Contract
Tcali replied to buffalo1983's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
He does not have a great deal of talent. his accuracy is poor. his arm strength is below average. yet i said he has made himself into a good qb with the help of an offense brilliantly designed by chan to maximize his strengths(quick thinking, good mobility,good composure).i like fitzy a lot. i think he is a good qb---and i love his guts and the fact that he doesnt mentally fold when things go bad. but the fact is he is not that talented.if he played under an offense where he was forced to wing the ball downfield a lot he would look just awful. he doesnt have that kind of talent. if he tried to QB Kurt Warners Rams or Warren Moons Oilers he wouldnt even be able to get the ball downfield to his receivers half the time. -

Tcali replied to buffalo1983's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
while fitz certainly lacks in the talent dept--he--along with Chan--has made himself an above avg QB. and without fitzy--this bills team is awful.just the nature of the game these days. so in the big picture yes he is worth the money.and it was necessary that we signed him. -
I think its going perfectly for the Colts. Their franchise QB is just down the street from you SJB. I close to agree with you but I would say that the Colts have been an above average football team with Manning making them dangerous in the playoffs every year. I though they had some decent talent there---but the 62 points is hard to swallow. I've always thought of polian as a very very good GM not great.I think he got fortunate the year they won the SB because of NEs misfortune.-In Buffalo he didn't put enough size on our D line.-Everything else he did a darn good job of. Remember though--our beloved Bills would be 0-7 or 1-6 with painter at QB.

Trent Edwards post-concussion would tie jamarcus for #1 overall. At that point you could put major money on Trent throwing a 5 yard checkdown in a Hail Mary situation from the 50.

All Time Underappreciated Bills
Tcali replied to st. pete gogolak's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Paul Costa. 2 time all-star at TE---avg 17 yds per catch for career.Then made mid-career move to offensive tackle. Yet no one has mentioned him. Talented ,versatile guy. -
Mike Montler needs to go in before Greg bell.

Idea: C.J. Spiller to Detroit for 2nd Rounder?
Tcali replied to ShipUPride's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
If Fred were 26 and we had some other good looking RB for depth I'd say yeah ok. Not with a 30 yr old Fred and zero other talent behind him. I think CJ has shown real flashes of being a big play guy and he seems to have excellent hands. -
All Time Underappreciated Bills
Tcali replied to st. pete gogolak's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Mosley was the fastest white man I have ever seen on a football field w possible exception of Lance Alworth.-He was faster than Beebe for sure and faster than that little guy who played for The St Louis Rams(forget his name).-As you say too bad he wrecked his knees. I remember him running under a few passes that were freakishly overthrown ala Alworth. aah what could have been. -
All Time Underappreciated Bills
Tcali replied to st. pete gogolak's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Love The Eugene Marve mention. One terrific DE for the Bills who is too often forgotten is Ben Williams. -In my book a better player than Schobel and a few other better known Bills.
