  1. Right! As Charles Bizarrekely says: Defense! Look it up! D-E-F-E-N-S-E! I may be wrong but I doubt it!
  2. Yeah, right! Remember Mularkey with the alarm clock trying to get Bledsoe to get rid of the ball?? I don't recall it making a a difference in games. And he was a 10 year veteran.
  3. [ writer who was following his time at Auburn, and this guy was just gushing about how much of a Super Man Newton was amongst othewise very good competition - examples of him running for over 150 yards like 6 times, I think, and one time leaping like 7 yards through the air into the endzone - descriptions of a talent that could translate into one of those players who could give our team a chance to win every time we walk out onto the field - and, I think he is who Nix was referring to when he made those comments about getting that kind of QB. With Newton comes risk. He probably will be gone by 3, too. Since we've had nothing else to think or talk about, I've gone back and forth on Newton, but it's hard to ignore what he did. I know a player's college stats don't necessarily mean much in determining how he'll do in the NFL (for good & bad) but Gabbert had a pedestrian 16 TD passes in 2010. Newton's 50 total TDs are elite numbers, especially for a player in the SEC. Add to this that he took a team to the national title that nobody picked to contend and these credentials are hard to overlook. Sure, Gino Torretta was a Heisman winner who took his team to the title but it's hard to compare Gino to Cam. I would not be disappointed in the Bills drafting Cam Newton.
  4. Gailey's recent comments were interesting. He said stuff like "We told him what he has to do to get there." "He's working at it." This can be interpreted in many ways but I'm wondering if it's his weight & strength. Also, a major criticism has been that he had only one move. Once it was seen on film, he had nothing else.
  5. For similar reasons, I always thought Aaron Schobel was overrated. He'd have 2 or 3 games of multiple sacks but then only a couple more over the remaining games. Too many times he was handled by just the OT across from him.
  6. Does he get any royalties from the FX series of the same name??
  7. When was Ralph last seen? Was it for the Nix & Gailey hirings??
  8. of Roger Goodell walking up to the podium and saying "With the 3rd pick in the 2011 NFL draft, the Buffalo Bills select Ryan... (then the screen goes black with Journey's 'When the lights go out in the city...' playing.)
  9. And the former Bills' linebacker was Blake Costanzo, not to be confused with George Costanza.
  10. Roscoe was an unnecessary "luxury" pick as the Bills had just drafted Evans the year before and still had Moulds.
  11. Just got the latest issue of Bills Digest. As has been the case for the last few years, there was a pre-draft question and answer column with supposed draft guru Russ Lande, who writes for the Sporting News. His pick for the Bills? OT Anthony Castonzo of Boston College. Can't say I've seen this one before.
  12. And he's meaner than a junkyard dog!
  13. You mean like when Brees goes 30 for 38?
  14. Since last year's "scatback" statement turned into Spiller, I think this offseason's "quarterback" statements will turn into a QB in 1st round. Newton Gabbert Dareus
  15. Woohoo!! We can draft that 3rd string tight end. Wait, haven't they all been 3rd string TEs?
  16. This is another reason I would be good with drafting Cam Newton. Who is the current face of the Bills' franchise?? Ralph? Chan?
  17. I could give the poster the benefit of the doubt on it being a typo. The 's' and 'c' are fairly close on the keyboard. Watt drives me nuts our when sum people use an incorrect word instead that sounds the same instead of the write won in they're posts.
  18. Exactly. I remember back in the 70's the preseason games were a little less. Then Ralph & others started including them as part of the season ticket package and eventually charged the same price. Greed!!
  19. I believe they have to use more than film when a guy is from a small school in a Non-Major conference. The competition is different. If a guy impresses on film, there's no way you'll be able to tell how he'll do vs NFL competition. A player from the SEC that excels would most likely excel at the NFL level.
  20. How soon we forget. Remember Jonathan Paul Losman??
  21. Some of you guys are being a little hard on Kelsay. I watched every game this past season on NFL Ticket and on most defensive plays I saw Kelsay right there in the camera shot around the tackle. Now, most of the time it was a second or so after the tackle was made but he was right there in the picture. I think if the Bills take Cam, he will not sit on the bench all year. Chan would work him in here and there in the wildcat or maybe for a series to change things up. He would definitely see some action. Not when you have Kyle Williams and Troupe already.
  22. I was amazed to experience the power of the internet. Many Golden State Warriors basketball fans were fed up with how their owner ran the team. A member of a Warriors fan site created another site that basically demanded that the owner sell the team. We also contacted people like the guy who writes the Yahoo "Ball Don't Lie" blog to tell him about our site. The Yahoo guy actually mentioned it and included a link on one of his blogs. Now, the owner may have already decided to sell the team, but not too long after our activities he announced he was selling the team. We like to think that the embarassment of that publicized website had something to do with it.
  23. "Playoffs? Don’t talk about — playoffs? You kidding me? Playoffs?"
  24. LOL!! I don't even know why they have O-Linemen running a 40. How many plays a year do they even run 20?? Other than interviews, the drills they put them thru are the only things worthwhile at the combine.
  25. Exactly. To be picked that high, he has to be the next Deion Sanders.
