The spike in the EZ after his TD reception indicated he wasn't enthused about yesterday's contest. Perhaps someone scolded him for that after the game so as not to make a widely known dysfunctional organization look any worse than they already do.

I heard Joe Montana is interested in a GM or HC or OC or Pro Personnel director job. He won 3 SB's, so that qualifies him, right? Onward!

I heard the personal trainer relaying the call from OBD. Goodness knows he/she has more football knowledge than Nix and Brandon do.

Where are the Pro Bowlers Nix has drafted? With 6 picks in the first three rounds of the 2010-11 drafts, only perhaps Spiller is worthy of any mention. Troup, Carrington, Dareus, A. Williams, and Sheppard are all either ineffective starters or backups. He's failed to deliver on draft day for a guy people lauded as a top talent evaluator. And that's why this team is on the merry-go round of failure. One more draft won't make this any better, nor will more UFA spending. This issue goes so much deeper it'll take an underwater drill to reach.

There are candidates for those teams' HC jobs. Meanwhile, this team conducted 2 real interviews for the HC job, one obviously a Rooney rule option in Leslie Frazier. They also conducted 2 in-house interviews for the GM job, one of whom was fired weeks later and was their minority interview. Read between the lines and take your head out of the ground.

There's a lot going unsaid about the sad state Buffalo has become. When coaches and front office types decline to interview for the team, it's safe to say the organization is known as something of a NFL Siberia. Players, agents, executives, other owners, the commissioner, all of them know this team is the worst in the NFL. And that was before they played today's game.

Does the track lead over a cliff or into a mountain?

How much does this game worsen America's trade deficit?

Most teams aren't the Bills.

They're making up for SB XL one game at a time.

If this doesn't get the team awake, nothing will. Sleepwalking since the first snap.

Pete Carroll versus Chan Gailey?

I would take those DJ coached teams that were guaranteed to be 7-9 and lose in heartbreaking fashion. Those were the days.

Send in the clowns...

Yep. Ralph's ownership guarantees the team remains in Buffalo and that it will never move beyond mediocrity for the reason you note.

I thought Kyle Moore was another of Buddy's street free agent/practice squad diamonds in the rough?

He's a gunslinger. Too bad he locks onto his target all too frequently.

You have to love the Bills playing the shout song going into the half after giving up 31 points. Maybe that's Ralph's strategy with Brandon executing it.

Whenever Wannstedt is shown things get worse. And that's saying something for this defense.

Results be darned, the roster is better now. Right?

And who would win in a battle of the Bills starting O versus their starting D?

Thought the defense was getting better. I guess it helps when you play inferior competition.

This whole inactivation of Jackson just seems deeper than getting practice reps. He's started for 2 other franchises, and it's not as though Fitzpatrick is doing anything ultra-creative either. I wouldn't be surprised if Nix and Gailey agreed that not activating T-Jack was necessary to protect Fitzpatrick from further scrutiny. In their world, the Bills front office is all about protecting themselves and their players from criticism. But, it's the Bills, and they're run like a third rate organization, so anything's possible.

I'm not on board with draft position being a luck thing. There are no guarantees in the draft, but with QB supply far exceeded by demand, fortune favors the bold. GM's who need a QB or but remain unwilling to pay the price to move up when they draft outside the top 10 typically are those drafting high again. For this team to ever have a chance, they'll need a GM who doesn't take 4 drafts to realize his team cannot put a good QB on the field. Because doing so mean a bad to mediocre football team, as evidenced by the three seasons of this supposed "rebuild."

Typically you don't keep the former starter around to mentor a younger guy. That is, unless you're the Buffalo Bills and don't cut J.P. Losman after he's been demoted in favor of Trent Edwards.
