Who is thinking the Bills should draft 7 Offensive Linemen every year?

The best place in the area to see Sabres games is Bailey's in Crystal City. I'm not sure if the games at that time will be among the "official" games where the local Sabres backers club gets bar specials and the sound or not but there seems to be fans there for every game and we have talked them into giving us sound even for "unofficial" games. Other places to see games would be Jimmy's Old Town Tavern, Greveys and I'm sure Glory Days on Nutley Street in Vienna would put the game on. I doubt there would be other fans at Greveys or Glory Days.

Quite a bit different since most everyone knew OJ and recognized OJ. Most people can't name or recognize any of these guys. There was a fair amount of evidence tying OJ to a murder. This case seems to be regarded as a national joke with most people wondering just how long this idiot prosecutor will make a fool of himself.

Color it? How have I colored it? What happened to them sucks and is unfair. Nifong deserves to be disbarred. But their lives have hardly been ruined. This is nothing like what happened to Richard Jewel. How has this affected their credit? How does this appear on their "criminal record" since they haven't been convicted of anything?

I think it is an exaggeration to say that the three guys have had their lives ruined. I doubt most people could name the defendants or would recognize them. Duke lacrosse and the coach were seriously hosed and the families of the accused are wasting money on defense attorneys for a bogus case but these guys will get their lives back.

Nifong Charged with Ethics Violation. I was wondering how long this would take.

I'm not convinced that the Cover 2 Defense is disastrously weak against the run either. It will largely depend opn the talent you have up front. I don't think that we have thr kind of talent at defensive tackle that can penetrate to make the plays or, failing that, occupy blockers so the linebackers can make the plays. And in the latter category, size helps. I don't think Marv Levy appreciated being stout up the middle when he was a coach and doesn't appear to do that now either.

Behind Chicagos starting DTs are a pair of 300+ pounders in the rotation. Rationalizing why we don't need run stuffers because of "schemes" isn't going to get the job done.

He beat USC.

GOT HIM!!!

It is measured in days. 266 Days to be exact. Or do you believe that babies carried through February require less time in the womb than babies carried through October. How do you explain premies?

How long is a month?

What was Ralph Wilson offering him?

I only saw the replay once but his knee might have come down out of bounds before his second foot landed in bounds.

He's not a run stuffer. Our DTs are too light. Before Jason Jefferson was activated off the practice squad we had only one DT over 300 pounds. This defense was going to be susceptible to the run and that was pretty obvious before preseason.

Losman was a mixed bag. I'm glad that they weren't super conservative with him but he was careless with the ball and threw at receivers feet to often. A defense that gives up 197 rusing yards is not doing its part to earn a win. How can you blame Anthony Thomas? He had 2 carries for 11 yards. He can't call his own number.

Putting things into perspective, doesn't this show that without a good offensive line that JP looks worse than he is? Doesn't this demonstrate that the Bills have to upgrade the offensive line and the rest of the offense will get better?

Since one of the reasons for doing rollouts is to buy the QB some time behind a weak offensive line, why wait until next year to do rollouts?

What pocket?

Rivers was taken before Roethlisberger was.

I think a good part of those lines would have been KOed under the old rules.

The answer was that this team was so bad in so many places that it made sense to trade down, pick up more picks and plug as many holes at possible. Instead, this regime decided do just the opposite and actually lost picks. This team was going to be bad. It really didn't matter if they got Whitner or not, this team was going to be to young or lacking the talent to really compete. The one positive thing that could have determined this season was whether or not Losman was starting QB material in the NFL. To do that, he had to be surrounded him with decent protection and talent. This regime has not surrounded him with protection and actually traded away talent. I fear we will come away with nothing this year but a bad record, a question mark at QB and knowledge that our OL sucks. No different than last year.

100%? Maybe not but do you think the Sabres team of last year or this year would be playoff bound if games were called the way they were in the 1990s?

Yeah riiiiiiight, Favre was frightened of a defense that gave up 427 yards, surrrrre.

Our defense was responsible for the botched snaps?
