  1. Make our offensive line as dominant as our defensive line. That's all I'm asking.
  2. I was living with my girlfriend in north Chicago at the time. She was not around that day, probably because she knew how disturbing I can be while watching the Bills. I remember being disgusted at halftime, and I turned it off and went to do crap around the house. I thought maybe I would just watch the first drive of the second half, and if they didn't score, that would be it. When Reich threw the pick-6, I was really pissed off and turned off the TV for good. But as most Bills fans know, there is no "for good." After a few minutes I had to just check in to make sure, and I saw it all unfold. It was crazy to watch, especially with nobody around to experience it with. I was jumping around and screaming all by myself.
  3. Well, I know I'm in the minority, but I think with some key additions on the line and at TE, I think EJ can get the job done. As for QB additions, I don't think they're looking at a high-profile high-price option, but that's based on nothing but my gut. That's how I'm doing it now!
  4. This is why we can't have nice things.
  5. I wonder if the recent success of our defense, attributable primarily to the defensive line, has altered Whaley's philosophy. By grabbing someone upper tier like Iupati, he would be building an offensive line as a strength of the team, much like the defensive line. Perhaps that is the philosophy that Rex brings that Whaley is on board with: build powerful offensive and defensive lines, and the rest will follow. Of course, if we can get a talented second-tier guy for less who is almost as good, I could see that. But I would like to see them spend the bucks on the line players (Iupati, Hughes) before guys like DBs.
  6. Dude, that was like 5 or 6 pages back.
  7. Only if "fine" means "healthy".
  8. Just curious, why do you think signing RI means Iupati is out? Do you really think Revis will be available? The Pats** have something similar to a one-year franchise option on him.
  9. Does every thread have to come back to EJ?
  10. I have to admit, I know next to nothing about Jake Locker, except that he's had a few injuries. Does he really have NFL starter-quality talent?
  11. Thanks, that's nice of you to say, and a nice summary as well.
  12. I can't recall if you've mentioned this previously in the thread, but who among the detritus out there would be your favored option?
  13. I should probably point out that the tweet was one of many following a call he apparently had with his source inside the organization. There were several interesting tidbits in there, not implying that this tweet was the entirety of it. I have no issue with people doubting the validity, accuracy, or value of the info. I just know that he has seemed to have good inside info in the past, so it seemed thread-worthy. Take it FWIW to you, of course. And no, WEO, that's not what the person said. He also was likely not referring to talk on a board like TBD, where fans discuss every unlikely possibility that pops into their minds.
  14. No, it ws her instead of he, Mr. Becuase. I imagine that's tough to see for a Jets fan, though. Stay classy!
  15. Problem is, they'd have to deflate the footballs for anyone to be able to catch them.
  16. And I would've succeeded if it weren't for you meddling kids!
  17. Great point. Bad move by Pettine, as he probably would be the head coach of a much more stable, talented team right now.
  18. Definitely nobody talking about that one!
  19. No nerve touched, not sure why you see it that way. You just called it attention-grabbing click bait, which I think is a mischaracterization, and takes more away from the discussion than it adds.
  20. I think I would be pretty happy with the combination of Cameron-Chandler-Smith-Gray at TE.
  21. There's nothing to click on. The guy had a conversation with someone he identifies as an inside source, and this is what he tweeted. If you really believe it's just to drive traffic to his site, or to get Twitter followers, or to just get attention, then don't engage in the discussion. Like him or not, he's been right on a number of things in the past, so personally I think he gets the benefit of the doubt from me. FWIW, he also noted that the Bills are doing everything they can to re-sign Hughes, and that Rex wants to keep Spikes.
