  1. Yes, this coming from the guy who just yesterday started a thread with: Then again, it is ICE, I should know better...
  2. I hope you're right. I like his talent evaluation credentials, but we'll see how good he is at picking a coach.
  3. He called me too. I like how he says "Buffalo Beeells."
  4. Maybe Fewell is just going to announce that Fitz is the starting QB?
  5. That seemed a little harsh even for the Onion. Sounds more like something posted here.
  6. For Gregggg Williams, I would say it was the loss at home to the Pats* when he punted from the New England 32 yard line. Man, it hurts just to type that.
  7. Norv doesn't get this many chances at being head coach if he's not a decent coach. I think he was probably a pretty good coach all along but never had a functional front office to help him out until now. So I agree with just about everything here.
  8. "The 2009 Buffalo Bills: It Was Over Before It Began."
  9. Thanks for the update. I wonder if he would consider doing a column thing for TBD like Scott Pitoniak, just to keep the skills up in case he gets the itch to get back into the sportswriting biz. I enjoyed his style of writing.
  10. I agree. I liked reading his column. Always wondered what happened to him.
  11. According to what I found, both are 6'1" and Mayo weighs 7 lbs more than Poz (245 vs. 238).
  12. Losers blame the refs.
  13. This should be Perry Fewel's Super Bowl. I expect him to be jacked up for it, and I'm hoping that spreads to the players. If he can help the team go 3-3 in the division, despite no hope for the playoffs, I think that would say a lot. I'm looking forward to it.
  14. Must have been all of the royalties from "Cat Fancy" magazine that did it for him.
  15. If Martz is hired as the head coach, I may very well drop my season tickets.
  16. Honestly, I don't care if we lose as long as everyone on defense has one single, solitary goal and achieves it: hammer Tom Brady every freaking play until he can't get up off the ground. Even on handoffs, I don't care. My favorite play of the decade was Nate Clements hammering Brady so hard on a scramble that he popped his helmet right off. Wish someone had a replay of that one.
  17. Big deal, semantics. I should have said, "after two training camps in the league." Sure, they tried to keep him, but it's not like it's because they felt he was their QB of the future who would take over for Rogers someday. They probably thought he'd make a pretty good backup...someday. All I'm saying is that I really hope the FO is not counting on Brohm to be the QB of the future (at the expense of, say, somebody more promising). He might be, but right now hes just a high round draft pick who couldn't show enough grasp of the pro game to make a team's final roster, much less a backup spot. Do I think the Brohm signing was a good one? Sure, he might develop into a real starting QB someday. I'm glad they signed him. I just hope the FO isn't saying, "Great, we can check QB off the list now." Sorry if I don't grasp things quite as well as you do.
  18. And the Dolphins.
  19. A gunslinger? What exactly does that mean, though? I can't believe it means he has a strong arm, because I've just about had it with his weak throws. There were far too many times yesterday when an incompletion would have been a completion if we just had someone who could fire the ball. The near-interception to TO on the sidelines is one example -- he was wide open, but the ball took forever to get there.
  20. So our quarterback of the future is a guy they plucked off another team's practice squad who wasn't even good enough to be the team's backup after two years in the league? Yeah, sounds about right.
  21. It was Palmer. He actually had two crushing hits on special teams yesterday. And that Maybin hit was just vicious. I wish he could do that about seven more times each game.
  22. As long as Chambers and Scott never have to block anyone one-on-one, I suppose we'll be fine.
