  1. Well, they sure aint good! The pats* might have a great offense, but their defense is going to drag them down. I don't think they take the division this year.
  2. I love this thread. It is crazy that the same people that said our offense is the worst in the nfl, we are going to be picking 1st in the draft, we are going 0-16 only after 2-3 games, and Spiller is a wasted pick are the same people that are saying Clausen just needs time. Truth is, all young players and new systems need time. It is sad that if you are a bill, you have to produce now or get hated... but if you are on another team, then it is all good and he has a "bright future" and we SHOULD have had him. Please, if clausen played like that for us this week, people would be furious that we are stuck with him for like 3 years.
  3. The thing about byrd is, not only was he a league leader in interceptions, but he was a league leader in tipped balls as well. The guy is a ball hawk and is great. The whole secondary (including byrd) isn't going to be as good as last year though. Last year we had kyle williams at DT and Schobol on the outside... the two of them were able to pressure the QB forcing him to throw into places with good coverage... this season, we have no schobol and williams is playing NT, which isn't easy to pressure the QB from. No secondary, however amazing they are, cannot cover the wideouts when they have all day to try to get open. Without a pass rush, teams are going to be able to throw the ball like crazy on us, even with a great secondary. So yeah, our strongest unit isn't even going to be able to play good this year.... which sucks. We need a pass rush just like we need a QB.
  4. Since the cards weren't able to get anything for Leinart, we probably won't get anything for edwards.
  5. Try telling that to the Vikings with AP/Taylor You can't win in this league with RBs alone..... but if you complement them with a good defense and a good passing game, then a run game helps a lot, even when bret favre is your QB. But yeah, this team really needs a lot more work.... it is nice to have a game changer on the team, but we need to cut the dead weight on this team. We have some good players.... but there is too much dead weight holding them back. We need to rid of the crappiest players faster, because they are pulling our better players down and making them look even worse.
  6. You think Bell should be benched, hang is not the problem, and don't even bother mentioning Green's play? If anyone should be benched, it should be green. At least bell as been showing steady improvement all year... I say keep bell on the field to see where he finally peaks. If he keeps improving, he will be a fine starting LT for us... better than what the steelers and cowgirls, that's for sure.
  7. The ol was servicable today, because the defense wasn't that good. Going up against stud defenses like the packers and phins made it look worse than it was.... either way, I am ok with bell at LT as long as he keeps getting better.... it is Green that needs to be replaced. He should be here for depth only. We very much need a QB and we very much need a pass rush.
  8. Well, he is obviously talking to the fans that did call Spiller a waste of a pick.... the guy is a playmaker, and we sure as hell in need of playmakers.... though it is games like this that show playmakers aren't the only thing we are lacking.... having no pass rush is going to kill this defense this year, and the QB and RT is just hurting the offense... this team needs a lot more work.
  9. Well, then you are in the wrong thread. This isn't a thread about the offseason signings. This is a thread about regular season signings. You want to talk about the offseason, go to one of the offseason threads. jesus.
  10. He is my favorite of the QBs right now.... but IF we do end up drafting him, we will need an oline even more.... because as good as he is, he isn't mobile at all. I think Luck will probably be a better fit for us.
  11. I don't know... I think you don't flip the line around unless (until) there is injury. Flipping these guys around isn't going to fix anything. They need some time to mesh and we need some better tackles.
  12. The big issue with the videotaping is that they were told NOT to that.... and even after being told not to do it, they went and did it anyway. That shows some pretty crazy arrogance and it is the straw that broke the camera's back with all this stuff where a DT will sack a QB and it will be awesome, but he makes the same sack on Tom Brady and gets fined type stuff. If a team doesn't want to be looked down on, then they shouldn't act like they are above the rules and above the league.
  13. hoping that there is no football next year is just silly. Just silly.
  14. Only if he can stay healthy.
  15. I have this mental block with Andew Luck because he is from stanford. having another stanford QB on our roster just makes me nervous. I really honestly feel that this is a front office that would draft a wideout as our first pick.... I know we need a WR, but we of course have bigger needs (QB/pass rush). So that is what I am fearing, we draft a reciever with no QB to throw to him... unless we get a dececnt QB in round 2. But something tells me we get a reciever.... who is a playmaker.... who returns punts...
  16. Well, I don't know where you got your numbers from, but Spiller started in week 1.... and troup seems to get more snaps than Kyle... so, you are a little off with your "0" number.
  17. I thought Sully would be happy with the way the bills are playing. Isn't he the one that wanted us to bottom out?
  18. The thing about spiller is, he doesn't get anywhere close to the touches that Best and Mathews get... the coaching staff is saying they want to work him in slowly, but they better get him in there a little quicker. Gailey said it himself, this offense needs a spark. Though I think it would have been better to draft a pass rusher in the 1st round.
  19. Bell has improved a lot. I am hoping he keeps on improving. That would fill a huge need for us. Green still isn't working out for us. And it is looking more like we are going to need a new center as well, though I need to watch more how the season turns out.
  20. I am thinking he just retires. I don't think he was keen on playing football for a long time any ways.
  21. Fixed. There are so many realistic goals for this team, it isn't hard. I mean, we can't turn this team into a top ten team easy, but improving at least a little bit shouldn't be hard. As far as firing modrak, I agree with it very much. I have a question though, if someone in that position gets fired, when is it they would usually get canned? Right now you would think that it would be the busy season looking at players in the college games.... so firing him now doesn't seem to be realistic, if that is the case. Though that is something I really don't know about.... our drafting, mainly in the high rounds, has sucked. We made too many mistakes with whitner, losman, maybin, etc. We obviously have to draft better. Firing modrak and bringing in a better evaluater would be great...and I am sure nix (or whaley) would know someone better that they could bring in.... which is our only hope. Because no one who is actually good would come to buffalo just for the hell of it. They would have to come here because they actually respected/worked with Nix before.
  22. If he said that, I would crown him as the best coach ever. Someone from the bills saying that would just be glorious.
  23. WHAT we really should do is just bench all the starters, even the good ones for just one game. Have them sit on that bench and make them watch the worst 60 minutes of football they have ever seen, the way the fans see it. It doesn't matter if they watch the film to see how bad they are, they should watch the whole thing from the bench just to understand what the fans go through every week.
