OK, do these guys ever practice tackling??
you have got to be joking
they've made plenty of good tackles, right after the pass and many for losses on the run, we just need to stop completions
-
we are just sucking on 3rd and long.
3 easy completions. we need to smarten up

i've dragged an iraq war vet out of a bar so drunk he couldn't stand and tried to pour water (that i gave him to stop drinking booze) into a beer bottle. he also tried to pick a fight with every guy he walked past on the way to the door, and he literally couldn't stand on his own.
great guy, but booze, soldiers and fights are never all that far apart from each other.

i think there should be zero laws against using drugs. that said, the government shouldn't hand drugs out to addicts.

you are such a bunch of hypocritical pussies.
do you know ALL the bad things that EVERY player in the nfl has done? if you are so gd damn high and mighty you would not watch any pro sports given the rap sheet that pro athletes have collectively.
you are just reacting to what is a high profile media case.
the mouth breathers saying that vick isn't entitled to be a pro athlete are the biggest morons. wtf gives you any say in who should or shouldn't be doing what for a living? he did his crime, did his time, and if he will help me team win i'll take him. simple as that.

First of all I have been in the Auto industry for 40 years and was both hourly and salary, I worked for 7 different GM dealerships, two GM suppliers, in Syracuse and Rochester and the River Road complex in Tonawanda NY
I still travel back to Buffalo, and I know exactly what the employees make.
They were hired by GM as temps and they work under a 3 year contract at $12 per hour.
I worked with 11,897 employees in 1972 and retired with 798.
We started at $4.44 per hour and retired at $27.50 and I was the highest paid worker.
The wages you see on CNN include heath care, dental, vision, and they do not reflect true actual wages
Nearly EVERYONE I know is now retired and we know exactly how much they pay our replacements
ok, so you have no data at all. great.
in 40 years you haven't figured out how to support a single shred of your argument. well done.
all the other benefits count, they are part of the cost.

This thread is not about wages and your outlook on what is fair and what is not.
Its about losing the Bills with a smaller market.
Get off the union garbage and the big BAD General Motors.
I know more about the auto industry then you will ever know
i'm sure you know where to file a grievance and how to put your side panel on at your station, but you understand very little.
do you have a single source of any repute for your "most make 12 an hour" comment?
-
Most GM workers are now making $12 per hour with no insurance an no pension. (they are contract temps)
The older workers make 27.50 and I can assure the screw driver job was eliminated in 1967
Nearly everyone has retired and have been replaced with robots and computers.
The older workers have problems with the new technology and have been replaced with much cheaper labor
this is nonsense.
nearly everyone has retired? garbage, the big three still have hundreds of thousands of employees. and no, most do NOT make 12 an hour, the average wage is much much higher than that. do you have sources to support any of this?
also, your garbage about needing protectionist laws or else everyone will make wall mart wages is pure tripe. do you have any education at all? unions are parasites: they target a host company making it slightly less bad to give in to them then have a strike, and get their members paid more than they would otherwise by doing that. the thing is if they feed too much on the host, the host firm will die. they are great for losers with no drive, but like any ponzi scheme they run out of chump companies to exploit.
you and your communist lever pullers need to step the eff up and learn to make money in the real world. you are a scared little child thinking that without your cadillac protection that EVERYONE will be on walmart wages. some people are good enough and some people aren't -- if you need the union you aren't.

You sound really bitter that you do not qualify. You could get help and get your GED.
because pointing out factual information (detroit free press had an article, and this is public information anyhow) means i couldn't even have a GED? get real.
these union guys getting the big money are lucky losers, but the gravy train is out of service. getting way way way more than what one is worth is a great situation to take advantage of, but being losers the unions (and their members who cry and whine about all of a sudden now getting dropped in the cold reality that they were protected from) effed it up and pissed it away instead of using the big income to secure their own future.
look -- auto workers are UNSKILLED LABOR. that means they don't or can't do anything anyone else can't do easily. there will be a mess finish to this, but the failures of the big 3 have been support too many times already, they should be allowed to die (killing the legacy union disease with them) and started anew by real entrepreneurs.
-
cry me a river.
the unions have been living high off the hog for a long time, with insane defined benefit pensions and the bill is coming due.
actually, the bill is way past due, but bailouts have kept the big 3 alive for too long already. they should have died long ago (like the airlines and other corporate cronyism hand out takers) to be picked up by new innovative management, and to remove the bullsht legacy costs of unskilled labor.
the "job banks" employees of the big 3, all 3700 or so of them, cost the big 3 over half a billion dollars all in last year. these are guys that could be replaced by a slightly above average high school junior.

Ugh... So you're saying that Peyton Manning is a system QB because he has had a good line and Harrison? Or Kelly was a good QB because he had a good line and Reed? At some point you have to give a guy credit. It's not that Cassel is a system QB, it's that because of some of the weapons the Patriots possess, he is able to bring out his best abilities.
re read my post.
the ne qb's are system guys.
proof:
without moss and the current O (include welker) brady had slightly above average numbers for his career. this is with proven cheating.
moss by himself has made bad/not great qbs (cunningham, culpepper, george) into probowl and all pro players. these are players who were on the scrap heap before, or after moss.
now that brady is down cassell (who hasn't started a game since HS) is putting up big numbers for the pats. it's all about moss, the line and the system.
-
ouch.
let's hope for a new cba and that it will be too costly for the panthes to do that!
a couple other guys would be really good for us, but the bottom line is peppers with stroud, williams, and aaron would get us 45+ sacks and 25+ turnovers.
-
peppers would super charge our D.
i think the young LB we lost to the IR in training camp will be a beast for us.
-
he did hide the ball really well and it was talked about.
that td pass in the red zone, not a single guy in red saw the ball in his hand.
-
brady had slightly above average numbers (while cheating and with a great d that gave him the ball extra times a game) his entire career until last year.
brady and cassel are total system qb's -- they are winning because of a good line and moss.
randy moss made jeff george and randle cunningham come off the scrap heap and be pro bowlers. he made donte fricking culpepper, who has flamed out and couldn't find a job in the nfl till detroit get desperate, a multiple 30+ TD quarterback.
moss might be the best WR ever. both the NE qb's are system goofs getting fluffed by hero worshipers in the media.
-
He's made a pro-bowl. This doesn't mean that he is all world.....or that he is one of the best......but it probably does mean that he is one of the better LTs in the league(certainly above an average LT).
Why does everything have to be so polarised?
because guys are on his bag and it gets under my skin (although it prolly shouldn't).
he was a probowler last year, he is just a guy this year. maybe above average, but nothing special. MILES from "WE MUST SIGN HIM, HE IZ TEH BESTEST PLAYA EVAH!" that the posters who want to kill themselves when a db gets added to roster write.
and yeah, it mainly is cuz of the hold out. fat sack hurt the team asking for money he does not deserve.

if we win out and the jests lose to miami, and NE loses one other game, we are the division champs.
if we win all but one we have a very strong shot at a wild card.
if we lose 2 we are out.
we have to go 5-0 or 4-1 (and really, if we drop one it would prolly help to be an NFC team but i don't see us losing to san fran).
we do have 5 winnable games tho.
