After digesting Spikes comments and enjoying the replay of the Bills vs Patriots game a few times this week I have few comments.
First of all coming from one of my favorite Bills, Spikes comments are very frustrating. In my opinion he believes the organization owes him something feels personally slighted because ... yes... we are rebuilding. The Bills paid him top dollar to come over from the Bengals and they watched as their investment sat almost an entire season last year which contributed to the scales being tilted towards rebuilding. After his first game back he gets injured and has the balls to make these comments. He and Vincenet represent the only Probowl veterans on this team, get over it the Bills are rebuilding... and so is Spikes. He needs to put up and shut up, and be a leader to the young future stars that Levy has assembled.
That being said after reviewing last weeks game I think the Bills are positioned to have a very short rebuilding cycle and if a few breaks go our way we could be very close to making the playoffs this year. I am very optimistic about last years draft and our coaching staff. We were prepared for the Patriots game, the players are on board with the staff and thats 1/2 the battle in the NFL. We have young talent and will have free agency money to spend next year to fill key holes. The future of the Bills is looking good and this year we just might be a surprise team. So yes ... we are rebuilding but its only going to be one year. Sit back and enjoy watching this team develop because there are future stars on the team learning on the job.... and if your lucky TKO you will still be on the squad when they win the Super Bowl.
