stinky finger

Hey....thanks! I like seeing my name in bolded letters. Makes me feel special.

The sarcasm wasn't lost on you now, was it genius?

Nor is it played in Buffalo in January. This must change.

Obviously it's not Nix. Just reread the last line.

Ummmmm.....you want to bring in Culpepper based on that one game? Simply brilliant.

How much crap did you just weed through to find this gem? Honestly, stop....please.

DeKuyper Brandy. How else could he get that hold?

Say for instance, up in the air......or....the 2nd floor of the IRS bldg.

That's really weird. I had a few planes crash into my house the other day, too.

Politics?!?! Less brutal!?!?

There you are. I was looking for you.........anyway, I couldn't agree more. No loss. Whaddaya think? A backup QB to fill in for Butler?

No worries. Haven't you heard? It'a all about the QB. Spread the word.

I'm on record as saying so as well (Vick). Not that he's the answer, but he's the type. And he won't cost much. He might be the perfect stopgap until we implement new schemes on both sides of the ball. There's no quick fix.

Really? Who? McNabb? Bradford? Clausen? Which one of these can't miss guys do you want prancing behind our deficient OL? You expect these guys to make our OL better. That's laughable.

So, if we drafted Bradford 9 overall, you're telling me it would be a 3 year deal? Your idea of mixing FA's I understand and agree with, BTW. Read my last post regarding this.

Absolutely agree. Problem is, as I see it, "quality" FA's leave their current teams for a couple of reasons. More money, obviously, or they settle for a bit less to hook up with a contender for a chance to get a ring. Well, we're not one to break the bank, and even if we were in the ballpark, the other player destination(s) are often times more attractive from a winning standpoint. It's a tough spot for Buffalo. So, unless we overwhelm monetarily, what is the draw? We need to prove we're serious about winning organizationally, prove it on the field, then we become a place players want to play.

Wow! Wilfork, Seymour, McNabb. Draft best available where we are deficient. Asking for an awful lot to fall into our lap. Besides your draft scenario, I don't see any of the big three you mentioned coming here. I don't see us at this point becoming a destination of a big time FA who wants to get paid handsomely. McNabb, I don't want to give up what it would take to land him. I'd rather use those resources to buildup elsewhere. The fact we have to learn a new offense and defense tells me we need time to adapt. To me, whether it's FA's or draftees, it'll take time to adjust and/learn the new. I know nobody wants to hear this, but we need to be patient and then......HOPE......all goes the way we all want it too.

Call it what you will, but this team is not as close as you think. Your thinking offers zero hope for sustained success. It is a process, though you might not like to hear this, it'll take 2-3 years. You can cite instances of team's catching lightening in a bottle for a season, but I'm interested in becoming elite. One and done, I am not. If this was a win now situation, more high profile coaches would have jumped at this. Teams like the Colts, Vikings, *Pats, etc. are in win now mode. They're built to do that. They're expected to do that. We're not there. If done right, we could be...........in a few years.

Perhaps if the ones he hit off the field WERE wearing "pads" he wouldn't be in this predicament.

No, no, no. We have to fix this NOW. Bring in McNabb and, well, we'll fudge the rest. It's ALL about the QB.

Dude looks like Bobby Brady. Means nothing I understand, but geez....

You should have stopped while you were ahead. You point out the very formula for sustained success in the NFL. And I promise you, it aint by acquiring a 33 year old QB. The Jets already have in place an OL/running game that is among the best. Factor in a defense that was good and only figures to get better. The Jets mix of draft/FA has done wonders (Mangold, D'Brick, Faneca, Woody, McKenzie comes back?). Young drafted talent at RB and TE (Keller, Greene). Decent/good WRs (Cotch, Edwards). Then they make their move for whom they thought will be their franchise QB. In comes Sanchez. Because everything else is in place, Sanchez doesn't have to be brilliant. Yet he figures to get better with each passing season. If he becomes even remotely stud-like, look out. Foritfy your lines, both O & D, bring in players to fit your new defensive scheme and let them become your calling card. The city we play in, the fiber of the people of Buffalo, should be demonstrated by the Bills defense every single Sunday. That is to say hardnosed and passionate. Then go find (draft) who you really believe can QB this team for the next decade. Quick fix? No such thing for a perenial loser.

Wait a minute. I'm confused. Cromartie is a RB?

Hanratty and who?

I wonder what Limbaugh would give up for McNabb?
