Denver vs NE: Classic case of good vs evil. Unfortunately in the real world evil wins more times than not. So no matter how many hail Mary’s Tebow says or throws I think the satin in a sweatshirt will triumph and by a lot. So NE against the points. Saints will repeat history by traveling to the west coast and coming home with a loss just like against Seattle. I think the Ravens will win but not by 9. Houston. Giants getting 9? Seems too good to be true so it must be. Packers

I'm grading the player on their draft position in relationship to their play. I’m NOT grading on potential for next year! DT Marcell Dareus B He was very good, and lasted the year. For the Bills that is an accomplishment in itself. For me to give him a higher grade he would have had to have made a few more plays even through the double teams. A Pro Bowl berth is my A+ so B for the 3rd overall pick is really good! CB Aaron Williams C+ I personally expected more from Williams. Injuries hampered him I know, but my college professor wouldn’t accept excuses so I’ll pay it forward. He showed flashes but so did McKelvin. He was rated as a low first rounded and maybe that’s why I expected more. ILB Kelvin Sheppard C+ He is another player I expected more from. His play got better as the year went on. I just wish I’d have seen a play from him that said “yep that’s the guy we need”. S Da’Norris Searcy B- Remember that I’m not rating these guys as compared to the rest of the class, and I expect more from the first picks. With that said I didn’t expect to even see this guy on the field. He held his own and that counts for our 5th pick in the draft. OT Chris Hairston B+ Come on who thought this guy was going to be anywhere near capable of playing let alone as well as he did. If he would have stayed healthy I’d have given him an A just for the pure unexpected shock of how well he played at times. Do I think he’s the long term starter? Nope! I was just pleasantly surprised by him. RB Johnny White C- Did some things on ST, but I would have thought with Jackson going down he would have gotten some carries. Kudos to the Bills for bring in Choice because he did OK, but it doesn’t say much for White. LB Chris White Pass/Fail 8 Tackles and 1 forced fumble. Early IR (which to me is a negative) I’m being kind here. CB Justin Rogers B- His ST work and him playing the nickel at the end of the season was more than you can ask of a player 7th round pick. OL Mike Jasper D He didn’t get cut so he didn’t get an F. He was elevated at the end of the season so he didn’t get a D- Flame away!

A guy that is always open even when he's covered, but can get wide open in single coverage.

Doesn't seem like we upgrade much with the OP's roster. I'm not saying I can do better I'm just afraid that we are counting on the IR returnies to win us 4 more games next year. And why isn't anyone as concerned about Woods history of injury as they are Bell's or McGee's? Woods is on IR almost as much as Bell. The upgrade that I think will matter most is at DC. Living in SC I would love to see Ingram in a Bills uni.

I'll give him 12................months. No playoffs in 2012, no Chan in 2013.

Stevie Johnson will sign with the Chicago Bears. Why? No reason I just closed my eyes and that thought popped in.

The real reaction from the Bills if the Jets were to aquire Manning would be to trade a first and second for Sanchez.

Mentally Weak. At the first sign of adversity they fell apart. Sure sign of a team that is not mentally tough. I believe the Dolphins players that were saying that the team gave up were refering to this.

Thanks so much guys. Looks like I missed a lot of games. It's too bad this wasn't pinned at the begining of the bowl games. Astro, that spreadsheet is awesome! Thanks!

Cool thanks anyway

The college bowl games are under way and I was wondering if you guys could give me a idea of what games to watch and what players? Or maybe you can direct me to a website that may have suggestions. Thanks in advance!

There are 4 teams that I have to route against every week. The Paties, Cowboys, Jets, Dolphins. In that order. NE and Dallas fans are all over the place and they all act entitled. I hate those two teams because of their fans. I do not know any Jets fans (Thank goodness!).

Thanks for the props! I was beginning to think that all my posts were being blocked.

Top 5 excuses why a Bills player isn't playing well. 5. He just needs more time to learn the game. 4. He's not playing his natural position. 3. Rookie wall. 2. He needs more touches. 1. (My favorite) All the players around him are bad. Rebuttal: 5. Go learn somewhere else and when you finally figure it out maybe will spend some money in FA on you. 4. If he was playing his natural position well enough he would beat out the player ahead of him and would be playing his natural position. 3. Take an ice bath and a nap and suck it up. 2. If he didn't suck with the plays that he was given maybe he would play more. 1. Maybe if said player would elevate his game maybe the other players around him would too?

With the offense were running right now we might as well get Kelly Holcomb back. I keep having flashbacks everytime I see a receiver run a 6 yards pattern when we need 10.

I'm not hating on Darius, but the topic is about the draft, and right now he hasn't lived up to the expectations of #3 pick in the draft. I believe he will, and hopefully soon, but right now he has not. With our history of failed draft picks, players don't get free rides for 3 years anymore! We can't afford to wait that long. We need production now and none of our recent picks are standing out.

+1

Fitz hasn't been the same QB since he took the shot in the ribs. He doesn't step into the throw and he hasn't been setting his feet. He was throwing the deep (15-20 yards)crossing patterns early in the year and looked good doing it. I think he has Trent Edward’s syndrome.

So will I and half the poster on here if they win 3 in a row.

So what you are really saying is we got out coached. Yep I agree.

I said before the Pats game that the Jets game that will tell if we're the dog or a flea biting the dog. If we win this game we take a huge step in moving towards being a BIG dog!

I've got a feeling that your feeling is gas.

I said it before the season and I'll say it now; Smith is not touching the ball enough to be worth the money they paid him. I am glad he's been making us some 1st downs, but I don't think he is doing anything more than what Freddie could do in the wild cat. This year the wild cat, next year the triple option.

Going into this past weekend's game Dalton had the second best completetion % in the AFC. How can you not give him some props?

1. Washington has the home field advantage (Toronto always supports the other team). 2. The Bills historically lose there. 3. Our pass rush makes even the worst QB look like an all-pro. 4. 3rd string left tackle starting. 5. The Bills play down to their competition. Bills win 27-10 Just goes to show you none of that crap matters.
