I look forward to this every year. Great stuff.

Will you also walk away from here, too?

The best hope for the Bills against Chicago is if the Bears decide to rest their starters for their big week two matchup against the 49ers.

Because all these years nobody gave him the chance.

Looks like a nice deal. Not so sure about the automatic renewal next season unless I take action, though. Never did like that.

I didn't read this at first, then I went back to it. Well done, sir. Well done.

Jordan Palmer? Jordan Palmer? Jordan !@#$ING PALMER?!? THIS is what you get me to replace Lewis? Seriously?

Looks like no Incognito for them.

Well that sucks. I'll admit I was hopeful for Thad as a #2 given his performance last year despite no training camp. I really thought he'd take a nice step forward with a full offseason and training camp.

No way he clears waivers.

This thread makes me feel better. For what it's worth, when I watched it live I wasn't happy with EJ, but I was more unhappy with everybody else, particularly the offensive line. Just a bad game overall for that unit.

Cool, that's where I live. Which bar? I was actually at that game. Man, that was a great time. I can hardly recall what it felt like to be 3-0...

No, but I think they do have a losing record overall in them. EDIT: Here's a good one from 2008, when the Bills beat the Raiders at home on a last-second FG to improve to 3-0 on the season. Before the collapse.

Not totally sure, but I think it does that when there is an apostrophe in the user name.

Agreed!

I've had 2 lower bowl seasons for well over 30 years, and got 7000 points. No idea how they calculate it, but I seem to recall seeing something about how twittering and other social media activity can earn you more points.

Scans are less invasive and easier, but obviously don't have the same resolution to the microscopic scale as a biopsy would. But if the scan is positive, then you don't have to go through the invasive biopsy. On the flip side, if the scan is negative, you still don't know if there is microscopic disease still there, so you need the biopsy.

Whew, that's great to hear. But yeah, next week will be the real test.

Outstanding response! :lol:

Sweet, thanks Rastro. Great to hear about Watkins. I'd like to know what you think about Seantrel on the right side. Sounds like the offense is looking okay, but tweets seem to indicate the offense is out of sync...

Well done, sir.

Man, this thing can't end soon enough. Please, for the love of all that is holy...just pick El Pegual and send the card up to the NFL owner's podium...

I agree, although at this stage it may be more of an unhappiness with Legursky as the only legit backup center -- this being a means of evaluating Urbik as the backup.

Man, if Henderson can handle the right side as well as he did the left, that could be something special.

Perhaps, if that's what I was actually doing. The point I was trying to make is that your arguments apply no matter who the QB is, whether he is a still-raw second-year QB, an exciting 3rd-year talent on a playoff caliber team, or a 2-time Super Bowl-winning QB. Eli isn't looking crappy because he's now suddenly terrible. Kaepernick looks as exciting as ever, but he's a huge risk at QB the way he plays. Are the Giants and 49ers now amateurs, despite their very recent success in the league, because they have Curtis Painter and Ryan Nassib, or Blaine Gabbert and Josh Johnson, as their backup plans? You'd have a pretty strong argument that both of those teams are in at least as bad a situation as the Bills, if not worse. But yeah, those two are proven talents...despite how crappy Eli has looked and how pedestrian the 49ers offense has looked so far. So they've got that going for them. Again, not everybody knows or executes all the right moves. So far, I'd say Whaley has done a pretty good job, all things considered, and he's got this team a long way from a complete disaster.
