Paup 1995MVP

He should have been cut after the regular season Chiefs game. Could not anchor against the run if his life depended on it. I think he had 3 good snaps all season. I believe one was a sack against the Raiders.

Way too much is made about playing 1 tech v 3 tech etc. The guy weighs well over 300 pounds. He should be able to play stout and strong in the middle of the D line regardless of where he lines up. You can either play or you can't. If he can't there is always the UPS loading dock. Not sure why all the Vernon Butler apologists on here. The guy is being paid millions to be a DT. He was decent at times last year but never dominant. Hopefully if we keep him around, he steps his game up several levels on a consistent basis. Its not like the Bills were asking him to return punts for gods sake. Its football. Its a man's game supposedly played by some tough SOB's. At least it used to be. Lets not forget that on here. Get it together Vernon and show Bills Nation (hate the term Bills Mafia) that you belong on our 53 man roster, and start kicking some booty on a regular basis.

I always thought the Raiders cheerleaders were the hottest. Sexy with lots of T & A, and some edginess prancing around the Oakland Alameda County Coliseum!! Now that is a beautiful sight in my mind. I don't care what era we are now supposedly in!!

Thats touching man. Great spirit for your team and your mom!! God bless you and your family:)

LOL You sure he is a top 5 QB?? Team went 4-12 last season. And don't tell me that a lot of that doesn't fall on Mr Baby Desean Watson!! Never seen so much hype about a guy who has not won anything in the NFL. He has his moments, don't get me wrong. But just because he runs around a lot in the backfield doesn't make him a top 5 QB. He needs to shut his mouth, and get to work turning the Houston Texans around. Right now it doesn't look like the Texans are going to trade him. They seriously may let him sit his ass this coming season. He is making big bucks. He needs to become the leader of the team and rally the players around him and the new coach. There is no guarantee when you get drafted that you are going to play in a great situation your entire career. Athletes today are so coddled. He got his money. Now start acting like the leader you are supposed to be. Instead of the baby B word you acted like after fumbling at the end of the Colts game and sat crying on the bench. Today's QB's are something. They barely get hit, and make big money for mediocre play. And then they whine and cry about not liking their team. I can still remember Boomer Esiason laying motionless on the Rich Stadium frozen turf after Bruce just crushed his head on a big blind side sack in the early 90's Bam that was football. And Boomer did not even ask to be traded after that. Imagine that. Just wanted to put some old school Paup football perspective on stuff Mark 80.

Good thoughts in your post. Morse has been a solid pass protector. And we are a passing team at this point. I guess I like my center to be a bit more of a mauler as well. I disagree w your first premise. So it falls apart for me from there. I will take Dawkins in that spot as our best lineman. Thought he made great strides this past season. And I just happen to like Feliciano's style of play more. Morse doesn't suck. He just has not dominated like I was hoping he would.

Thanks for the photo-thats a riot. LOL

Foolish?? He has been mediocre the past two years. Doesn't suck, but he is a big reason why we can't run consistently well up the middle. (And we can save money that needs to go to other positions by cutting him) When it comes down to it, Feliciano is a tougher hard nosed blocker then Morse. An interior starting line of Boettger Feliciano and Ford, and adding a FA or draft pick to compete at Guard would be solid.

He will be banged up before the season starts. The guy was the leader of a defense for a team that went 4-12 and gave up a whole bunch of yards and points. Everyone says the Texans have a lousy organization. Well the players are part of that lousy organization that went 4-12 last season. So maybe Watt and Watson are not as good as a lot want to say, because they were the leaders of a 4-12 team. All I remember is Watson sitting on the bench crying with a towel over his head after he fumbled inside of the Indy 5 yard line at the end of the game. That's a hell of a leader-not. (Don't think Jimbo would have done that)

Thats a fair assessment of Kent Hull. I thought he was a little better then just those numbers. Always a class act, and one of my favorite Bills from that era. But I understand where you are coming from. Would put him at least on the level of Kyle Williams in Bills lore.

If you watch enuf football over a lot of years, as a fan you get a feel for who has had a HOF career, and who was really good but not at that top level. I think Rivers was pretty dam good in his heyday. A real gamer too. I think he gets in eventually. Def not a first year or two guy. But the guy could play. Heck he still looked good against us in the playoff game. That being said. Cam Newton is nowhere near a HOF player. He had some big years, and then became very mediocre due to injuries. And last year he embarrassed himself.. I think Greg Olson Cam's TE has a better chance of getting in then Cam when all is said and done. And he is certainly not a lock, but has a shot.

Kent Hull had a helluva career. And he was a leader on the championship teams. He should be given consideration.

Nice post Fig. I has always liked Yeldon going back to his days at Bama. I would keep him over Singletary if I had to make a choice. The guy is not a star, but he can play RB at a decent level in the NFL. I would go w him, Moss and either draft Najee or bring someone else in, and give Antonio Williams a chance also. I would trade Singletary if possible.

Many of our defensive players were downright lousy last year. Did either Addison Jefferson or Butler do anything that you could even consider being memorable or game changing the entire season? And you could put Edmunds in there also. Heck I would say that Klein and Zimmer made more plays then the other 4 just mentioned. We need upgrades on defense. That's obvious. Now do Sherman and Watt upgrade the roster much? I very much doubt it, especially Sherman. He is old and slow at this point. JJ can be a beast. Just not game in and game out. Play in and play out. The culture is great. We just need better play from our defense.

The Falcon fans just want a winner. The last 3 years have been terrible. While Matt Ryan has not sucked. His mojo is definitely on the downside ever since the Super Bowl loss 4 years ago. A change will be coming soon enuf once Ryan's ridiculous contract can be sent packing without the dead cap money completely crippling the team. As for Field, the Dawgs have JT Daniels who will do just fine for them. In today's college game, everyone wants to play now. Fields thought the Buckeyes gave him a better chance to play right away. He didn't disappoint until the Nat title game. And then he took a royal beat down. Roll Tide.

Because Wentz is god awful. He had just a horrible year with the Eagles. Frank Reich is a good coach. But Phillip Rivers was light years better then Carson Wentz. Today is not a good day if you are an Indianapolis Colts fan.

I am a big Ike fan. Iowa and Wisconsin know how to develop O lineman. Guy is solid with a ceiling of being a good to very good NFL player. I would resign Feliciano and move him to fulltime starting center. Play Boettger and Ford at Guards. Resign Darryl Williams at RT and try and trade Mitch Morse. Morse is not worth the money we are paying him.

I remember that 92 team well. Antonio Langham at CB, and George Teague at Safety. They played in the first SEC Championship outside at Legion Field in Birmingham against the Gators with probably Shane Matthews. The SEC was so exciting back then. And still is!! I remember Langham returning a pick 6. You guys had Gene Stallings as head coach. He wasn't Saban, but he could sure coach. And he had the handicapped son. Bless his heart. My son played with your recent safety Xavier McKinney in HS outside of Atlanta. They went to the Georgia State 7A (big school) Championship in 2015 and 2016. You talk about a loaded team. My kids class had 15 guys go play D1 ball. My kid plays at Georgia Southern. Had a bad knee injury in 2019 against LSU playing DE. But he had a good result from surgery, and played in all 13 games this past season. (second half of the season once he got comfortable, he was balling OUT!!) He is only 6'2 but tough quick smart and strong. Another big year as a 5th year senior and he will get his shot in the pros. He got a sack in the New Orleans Bowl against La Tech in the Superdome. That was frikin very cool!! Sorry if I digress. But I love college football. Overall more exciting then the pros. Except for watching the Bills. I agree about Najee Harris. Tremendous talent. Bills would do well to draft him. Look how Damien Harris did with the Pats. And Najee is more explosive and athletic. Go Bills.

Completely agree Dr D. (I love your user name by the way. And you have been on here a long time) Najee Harris is a great talent. He was dominant at Alabama. Singletary and Moss are not dynamic in the slightest. We can do much better then both. I thought we should have taken JK Dobbins in the second round last year. Instead we took Epenesa, who did nothing for us this past season. I would draft Najee Harris. Cut all the trash D Lineman we signed last off season in free agency (Jefferson Butler and especially Addison) and try again signing 2 or 3 new free agent D Lineman. And most definitely resign Darryl Williams at RT.

Our RB group is pretty forgetable to be honest. Neither Moss or Singletary have much burst. Ronald Jones has more burst, and Fournette is a pounder. Tampa has a great front 4 pass rush. They made Mahomes run for his life all nite. In fact Tampa's defense is better then ours all around. They played an amazing game last nite front to back. They pretty much blanketed the KC receivers at all the crucial moments in the game. Lavonte David and Devin White are much better then Matt Milano and Tremaine Edmunds. No contest there. But the pass rush against Mahomes was fierce. Bills would have played the Bucs much tougher then the Chiefs did. But I think the league saw the blue print for beating the Chiefs. Knock the snot out of Mahomes. God I loved that. Can't stand the hype he gets. Allen is the guy.

Milano is a good player. But not a generational talent that can't be replaced. Edmunds can walk. He is the biggest liability on our defense. Makes very few plays doesn't know how to tackle and has no instincts for the game. Keep Klein and start fresh at LB. The team will be better for it!

Did you watch Alabama or Clemson play the past couple seasons? Etienne or Najee Harris are certainly not nitch players. They are studs who would make our offense much more dynamic. Singletary brings next to nothing. He has no explosion power or burst. And Moss may be a little better, but not much. We can find good interior lineman or inside LB's later in the draft or in free agency. We drafted Edmunds in the first round, and he has done nothing to live up to first round status. In fact, I will be so bold as to say that AJ Klein made as much if not more of an impact in games for us this season then Edmunds did.

Players gave it their all. Love watching Josh spill his guts on the field. Our front 7 has no stars or studs. And Edmonds just plain sucks. We did not play or coach like a confident team against the Chiefs like we did against Baltimore. But it was a great season nonetheless. We are climbing he mountain. Won two playoff games. We will learn from this and get better. Need a big time RB. Singletary brings little. And some upgrades in the front 7. No game changers on D to take the momentum away from the Chiefs. Beane and McDermott will keep charging and take us to the top soon enuf.

Most of the off the field nonsense goes away as you get older. That's just the maturation process w most of us, football players or not. But what is key is whether Dwayne Haskins can play a lick or not. He was overdrafted. But what he can do over the next few years on the football field is what matters. If he can play, he will get a shot. If he can't, it doesn't matter if he is Mother Teresa off the field. He will have to find another profession.

Not sure where all the love for Dak is coming from. He has been good, but certainly not great over his career. He certainly would not have done any better against the Bills two weeks ago then Rivers did. And more likely would have turned the ball over some. And as a Bills fan, I am not afraid of any QB coming in our division or our conference. We are going to be owning the AFC for a long time to come. Other then KC, we are the dominant team going forward in the AFC, regardless of where Watson, Dak or any other overrated QB goes.
