How do you arrive at this conclusion? Why isn't Jones a starting WR in the NFL? He has catches and has scored in games that actually count. BTW, he's 6' over two hundred pounds and ran a 4.46 at the combine. If you're going by physical "stats" which is seems you are, they aren't that different.
And he's a hell of a blocker too. I like Jones a lot.
According to the Bills roster, Easley is 6'2" 225. Jones is 6'0" 208. That is significantly bigger. And side by side the difference seems even bigger, even though Jones has decent size. Easley is huge. Would you call a WR who is 5'10" 191 not that different from Jones? Because those are the same 2" and 17 pounds.
I haven't seen enough of Easley to say how physical he plays, but I know Jones plays physical and can make tough catches.
Sometimes physicality means more than size. Kind of that "not the size of the dog, but the size of the fight in the dog" thing.
I sure hope they both are big contributors this year. Go Bills!

Can You Say SPILLER ????????
LOL, Spiller is nothing like LT. Not even close.
-
except Levitre I think his recent "demotion" was only a wake up call.
Yeah, a wake up call for Bell, not Levitre.
-
Has Sheppard practiced yet? Can't see him taking up a roster spot without participating in any pre-season practices/games.
It's frustrating that he hasn't been healthy thus far, but to think he won't be on the roster as a 3rd round pick?
That's ridiculous.
-
I think it's just a matter of time before he's out for the season with another torn something rather.
I sincerely hope not, but I will not be the least bit surprised if it does.
-
6'4" 220 but he has been on half a dozen teams so he doesn't look like much, we can only hope he is a late bloomer.
He's played for 3 teams. Maybe you meant half a half dozen?
Also who cares if he will wear #83, it's just a number.

If they moved it back to the 20 yard line as Belichick suggested, that would make it more interesting.
Give the scoring team a choice between...
A) Kicking a 1 point attempt from the 20 yard line (37-38 yard kick) or
B) Going for the 2 point conversion from the 2 yard line.
It would create more drama as it's likely more 2 point attempts would be made.
-
I agree with him. The extra point is ridiculous. What say you?

edit - Also, since the Bills don't score many touchdowns, and have Brad Smith...we should just go for 2 every time. (devil emoticon)
-
Unbelievable. Goodell is a p.o.s.
-
I've been thinking the same thing. When was the last time he even practiced? He's always hurt.
-
Levitre, a three-year starter @ Oregon State, has seen action at every position along the offensive line for the Beavers (except for center),
-
And FAR and away their best record since 2002 (next closest was 5-11).
So what did they do? They fired their coach naturally.
Hahaha! Exactly what my friend said.
-
At least the Raiders were 8-8 last year. A better record than the Bills have had since...2004.
-
Sons of Anarchy has been on my radar a while...they have it on Netflix, so I was thinking about starting it up.
You won't regret starting SOA. It's really good.
Also, watch "Ong Bak" It's also really good. (Tony Jaa is amazing)

He was the starting RB and just came off the fourth most yards in NFL history in one season, and yes I know a sizable portion was kick returns but that doesn't matter. He was not only good, he played great. He played for minimum salary before that. Less than two million a year, and less than two million guaranteed is peanuts for a RB of his caliber and accomplishment. He had never made any money before, and he was restricted. They had him over a barrel, and gave him the very least they could get away with, instead of a salary commensurate with his ability and production. And he still was the good soldier, for awhile, although IMO you could always tell he was bitter about it reading between the lines.
Now he has had enough. There are at least a few if not several Bills veterans not happy with the Bills right now, for various reasons. You can choose not to believe it if you wish.
You keep saying how FJ is upset with the front office. You know this how? I haven't seen anything claiming that...
It wouldn't be far fetched that FJ would be upset though, sh-- I think we all are.

Gailey & Wanny wanted to see if they could get pressure on the QB with just 3 lineman. He also wanted to see if our five lineman were able to block in a base package without a lot of additional schemes.
Fail.
-
Good left tackles get chip help all the time.....and Bell didn't need it last week against Julius Peppers and did fine.
Sometimes...you have a bad game....and its up to the coaches to make an adjustment.....we didnt make that adjustment in this game because they wanted to see how the team handled it because its PRESEASON.
I'm sure they were appalled at the capabilities of the team. They "handled" it like a child facing a man in a boxing match.
I know it's pre-season, I know sometimes players have bad games, but it's very discouraging to see them get dominated like they did.

Scrappy
Just so that I understand what you are saying here....you are not buying that we ran straight up vanilla offense and defense while Denver ran offense that you would see in the regular season.
Just so we are on the same page.....can we agree that:
- Had Bell had this kind if difficulty in a real game we would have chipped on that side to help him out
- That Fitz probably would not have been so off with his throws if he wasnt getting hurried so much?
- Pears did in fact do a good job with HIS man on man blocking?
That chip help would have made a big difference in this game
I don't see how you constantly try to make excuses for these bums. Bell shouldn't need help from a TE or RB. Fitz is going to be pressured relentlessly when the season starts!
It doesn't matter how vanilla the scheme was the Bills played, they looked pathetic.
-
still dont understand why they dont bring in Brian Waters. He'd be a huge upgrade at guard.
He costs money.
-
I hope Johnny White is alive.

Was this worthy of a topic? This is why I left the official Bills Board.
If it wasn't worth it why did you post?
I was listening to the game on 97rock (I live in Oregon), sounds awful. I turned it off. Sort of glad I didn't have to see any of it.
-
Love seeing this stuff....surprised there was no flag on the Bucs for this.
Thank you for posting this. Made my day so far!

The punishment did not fit the crime. How ridiculous.
