Oh OK. So by that logic Losman is really 2,500 yards 15 TD's and 6 INT's ... nice!

Maybe I understand the playoff tiebreak wrong, but doesn't this is one of the scenarios that Bills go to playoff?
In this case, Bills beat Jets based on better conference record and KC beat DEN because of better division record. Then, Bills wins wild card over KC because of better conference record.
Thats what im thinking.

Okay so I checked out the playoff scenario drawn up by professional Bills nerd Chris Brown and found his analysis to be thin and containing a lot of Bills-friendly what-ifs. Here are my predictions for how the rest of the season will likely shape up for all AFC "contenders." By my good sense, the Bills are out of reach...(home games capitalized)
TEAM WEEK 13 L3Opp Outcomes FINAL REC
NE 9-4 HOU Win 10-6
jax Loss
ten Loss
BAL 10-3 CLE Win
pit Win
BUF Loss 13-3
SD 11-2 KC Win 14-2
sea Win
AZ Win
INDY 10-3 CIN Win 13-3
hou Win
MIA Win
CIN 8-5 ind Loss 10-6
den Win
PIT Win
JAX 8-5 ten Win 10-6
NE Win
kc Loss
And the following teams finishing 9-7 will be- NYJ (minW, miaL, OAKw), KC (sd L, oak, W, JAX W), DEN (azW, CINL, SFW), BUF (MIAW, TENW, balW)
with TEN (JAXL, bufL, NEW) and MIA (bufL, NYJW, indL) finishing 7-9
Do you have a link for Chris Browns playoff scenario?
edit: nevermind I found it

It will be fun to look back in 6-8 years when the PS4 and XBox 720 Extreme (I took a few liberties with the title) will be copying the interactivity of the Wii. The first "true" next generation system will combine the interactive elements of the Wii with the Hi-Def graphics of a PS3 or Xbox 360.
Xbox720 Extreme ... Thats pretty good. You should send that too Microsoft for consideration.
Next gen systems probably will have interactive elements ... no doubt. Although I do doubt that it will be like the Wii with the remote and nunchuk.
Metroid ... Is that a joke?
Crimson Skies was extremely heralded and popular when it first came out, but then it died down.
I guess you could look at it that way. Or you could look at it in the sense that certain people (whether smart or not) play these games for 6-8 hours at a time. I do once in a while when playing at my bro-in-laws house with the guys. After 6 hours of that constant movement with the remote, it is going to get tiring. Thats all.

Theres a huge difference in playing like a $25 mil corner and wanting 50 mil than playing like a $40 mil corner and wanting $50. For the past 2 years, up until a few games ago, nate was playing like a $25 mil corner. Its only been the past few games that he's stepped up into the 40 mil range.
I agree with you except for I think that he has been playing like a $35 mill corner the past few years and a $45 mill corner the past 6 weeks. You have to remember that Inflation is hitting the NFL hard.

It seems like only a couple years ago, the salary cap was in the $60 million range. The increases are becoming out of control. Guys like Schobel are getting absolutly screwed because they signed deals 2 years ago and the cap has gone up 30% since then. Keeping Clements, Kelsay, or Fletcher is going to be very difficult because there is so much cap space available to the 32 teams. It has gotten to the point where a billion dollar owner is a necessity in order to keep up.
Thus why I welcome Tom Golisano. I say Ralph makes him part owner now and upon Ralphs passing, Tom takes full reigns of the team.
-
No, not fathoms. But they are apart. Put it this way. Harrington has started THREE TIMES the ammount of games as Losman (more experience) and in his 5th full year in the league he still has worse numbers than a QB in his 2nd full year with 40 some less starts?
When that QB's main attribute is scrambling with the ball, then the knee injury is much worse of a situation than for others.
-
Your kidding right? 4 more TD's than INT's and a 85 QB rating is worse than 1 MORE intereption than TD and a 72 QB rating.
BTW: are you saying that having 1 AFC Championship ring and 0 SB rings is better than having 4 AFC Championship rings and 0 SB rings?
Boy the people around here are getting weirder.
P.S. Coulda had Brees.

So Clements is assumed to have been playing well because you never heard him get his name called. That could be true, but that is not someone you OVERPAY to keep because you can get that from others. You Overpay for guys who are PLAYMAKERS, guys who get on the highlght reels and make the picks which is something Nate is doing NOW. Like I said no one was saying not to re-sign him, they were saying not to overpay for him because he wanted top CB (or even top NFL) kind of money, and for the way he was playing, he didn't deserve it. Now he deserves some big money because of his play.
I'm going to try to explain this differently. Lets say you work in an office, you constantly do yor job and exactly what you are supposed to do. It comes time for a new contract. The company is going to give you the going rate for a person doing your job. Now lets say you come in and do everything your supposed too but you also have secured multiple big accounts for the company, have come up with a bunch of new money sving ideas and have helped the company out in other ways. When it comes time for your new contract, the company is going to give you a better contract just because they don't want to lose you because you bring something extra to the company.
The first part of that example shows Nate in the first half of the season, playing his position and doing a good job. The next part of the example shows Nate in the second half of the season, playing well, making the big hits and key interceptions.
Ok. So basically your saying this:
Nate has always done a GOOD job at his position and has shutdown wide receivers like Steve Smith, Johnson ... etc but it was not until he past 6 games that he became a true PLAYMAKER. One that can break a game open? Correct?
So now we are going to let him go to another team because we dont want to potentially "overpay" a GOOD player ALL the time and who is a PLAYMAKER some of the time? That is the type of thinking that has gotten us to no playoffs in the past 6 years. We need to stop getting rid of players because we dont want to overpay them. Think Pat Williams, Ted Washington, Antoine Winfield, Sam Cowart ... etc
I don't know whats worse, the constant, I told you Nate was great attitude, or the Nate clements Man love you keep postingFind me two other times I bragged about me being right about Nate.

I dont think McNally's job was ever in jeopardy to anyone but the fans. There is a reason why many have said that he is the best OL coach in the game when we picked him up.
Refer to this post for my answer to that.

Ditto what he said.

The Fins found a QB? Really? Who?
Harrington: 2,100 yards, 12 TD's, 13 INT's, 72.9 passer rating.
Surely not that guy.

And the Lord said "shut up."
I feel that we could stand to write and speak intelligently while enjoying our football, that's all -- particularly when the meaning of a word is completely changed when it isn't used it correctly.
If it's that much of a problem for you, I'm terribly sorry.
Go Bills.
Since when do you consider me the Lord?
If you feel the need to write "intelligently while enjoying our football" then do so ... but quit judging other people who dont feel like it.
-
Exactly.
I just don't think we can afford the guy.
When we let Winfield go, I was all for it--because I wanted to spend that money on re-signing Clements rather than Winfield. But the fact is that Clements will command a monster salary (perhaps the biggest contract in the whole league). How are we going to be able to pay him that kind of money?
Clements will probably be looking for about $50 million. The biggest contract in the league is more than double that.
How do you we pay him that kind of money? Well perhaps we actually SPEND some of the nearly 30 some million we will have in un-used cap space. Its really sickening to go year after year after year dumping players because we dont want to pay them.

Thats one theory ... OR he was playing just as well as he is now except he wasnt doing all of the flashy stuff that gets the announcers/station to notice him, such as the huge hits and batdowns.
If you cared to pay attention at the games late last season and earlier this season, you would see that Clements has been blanketing his receiver every since he dominated Steve Smith last year. He just wasnt having those chances for huge hits and batdowns ... mainly because the QB's havent been throwing to his side since then. In fact I cant remember him giving up more than 1 TD total in the past 17-18 games. Can you?
Its tough to see how good a CB or S is doing unless your at the game, because the TV station and announcers are most likely going to be paying attention to the other, more high profile, players on the field.
Im sorry to break it too you and everyone else, but Clements has been as solid as a rock since week 11 or so last year and every game this year. It's not all about that huge INT or that bone-crushing hit. It is about being consistantly solid in covering your receiver and taking that WR out of the game. Clements is probably in the top 3 in the league in that category.

We will probably go into Week 1 with the most space.

I remember a time not too far ago when I was flamed for suggesting us re-signing Nate. Oh how the bandwagon is getting full.

I have no "problem" with Nintendo systems or the Wii ... but I take it as it IS, and I dont try to classify it into categories it simply does not fit in. Hardcore gaming and Nintendo consoles simply dont fit together. There is a reason why Nintendo consoles are commonly not found in national gaming tournaments.
-
No doubt. I was actually laughing at Super Smash Bros Brawl and Wii Sports. Nintendo is mainly known for Zelda and Bond. Thats about it. When you think of Xbox you think of Halo, Gears of War, Crimson Skies ... etc.
Although I dont know much about Zelda, one reviewer basically said (paraphrasing) "Although Zelda is beloved by many, it is not a game that the hardcore gamer is likely to be downright enthused by"
-
In all honesty (dont laugh), Drew Brees reminds me of Tom Brady without the SB rings. He has poise, he has a good arm but not a great one, he can dink and dunk it then throw a 40 yard TD (which he just did). He (in my opinion) is a real franchise QB.

Right. You can find CB's who can consistantly shutdown big game WR's consistantly like Clements has done.
Everytime I hear other fan talk they speak of how they "need a CB", "need secondary" , their teams "pass defense sucks" ... we finally have a darn good one and were willing to let him go.
