Yet Nix himself said he didn't want to put someone in a swing position like that. I'm certain he was talking about Scott, so it's very unlikely Scott would be considered the 4th safety.

The thing I never understood is how quarterbacks and receivers are supposed to make pre-snap reads when the defensive players are moving around, pretending to show blitz, etc.

It was worth a shot...

Tom Brady as a whole is an abomination, but I think you mean aberration. Which is true, considering how well they were running the ball. I do think Fitz had a great game (after the INTs) and was one of the reasons for the victory, but there were many reasons for it, luck being one of them. I actually don't think the PI call on Nelson in the end zone was that bad of a call. The guy clearly was preventing him from getting to the ball with his back turned. Nelson could have certainly had the chance to break it up. Not the best call, but certainly not the worst. Was it really worse than the end zone PI call in the "Just give it to 'em" game in New England? Now THAT was the worst.

It doesn't mean anything to the kids these days unless it's a full-sized replica created in Minecraft.

Holy smokes, I've been looking for that video clip of Nate Clements destroying Tom Brady for years now. Where did you find it??

Nice piece. Ain't that the truth.

There's always one...

Just a note: The title of the thread asks to pick which receivers will survive, but the poll itself asks to pick which ones will be cut.

Hmm, I didn't see anywhere in his response where he bashes the Bills, only the city of Buffalo. Was he disrespecting the organization that paid him?

So does this make you Captain Foresight?

You can't fool us.

Love the new unis.

Wow, for a minute there I thought Crayonz had a new handle.

The Bills are holding voluntary rookie workouts right now. Perhaps the Cards are doing the same, and this is what Floyd is skipping. Linky

Without a doubt, Salt Lake City. The Salt Lake City Missionaries. All white. Home and away. With thin black ties. And they would only play Monday night, Thursday night, or Saturday games. And no beer vendors. And for God's sake NO HOT COFFEE IN THE WINTER.

A 2nd? That guy sounds like he barely warrants a 5th. No thanks.

Maybe the lack of recent public appearances along with the (apparent) increase in this activity is some indication of Mr. Ralph's health...

Flutie would have won that game.

Link is mistyped.

Ah, one of my specialties. I voted for C&H because it was one of the most consistently great strips and set the standard for excellence. Bloom County was a close second because it completely shook up the field at the time and redefined how good comic strips could be. I would say Bloom County was more important for leading the way for the "new" wave of comic strip artists, but C&H was pound-for-pound the better strip.

The interesting part of it is that teams can set whatever percentage they want, as long as it's above 85%. But the lower you set it, the more revenue you have to share with the league -- if you go above the level you set, those revenues above the level are shared with the league. So it's an incentive to go with higher percentages. But percentage of what? Capacity? We can see how teams like JAX get around that issue. Also an interesting question about if teams can set a certain percentage level on a per-game basis. I didn't see anything about that. The problem for the Bills last year is that we had so many home games in December, which is usually bad, but especially bad when the team is in a tailspin. This year we have the same issue, but if we're at least in contention late in the season, that should help.

Happy belated birthday, Bill. Hoping for another great year of game summaries.

Happy birthday, Pooj. Have a great one.

It is pretty staggering when you think about it, given that so many people I know had a BB and just absolutely loved them. Never used one myself, though.
