Wow... These rips on Sullivan are getting tiresome... What do you expect out of an opinion piece (column) about a 100 million dollar guy (50 guaranteed) who got man handled in his opening debut. A love letter? He wrote an excellent column about it imho, he isn't even that critical, not by a long shot. Sullivan basicly says in between the lines that he still has hope and believe in this years team;
"But hey, it's only one week. There's no need to worry about Williams. Anyone who shuns TV must have his priorities in order."
"OK, so I've said the same things over the years. Harrison had a point. But instead of feigning ignorance, Williams could have defended the organization, gotten behind his embattled quarterback, and re-asserted his belief that the Bills are a rising Super Bowl contender.
Maybe that's not his nature. Fine. But I'll admit, I've had some of the same reservations about Williams lately. He seems a little too laid-back. I wonder if he liked the idea of Buffalo because, in addition to the great hunting, it was a good place to settle, a small town with a less-intrusive media, and less pressure to lead a team to the promised land."
Bottomline; he's not being overly critical, dead honest sure, but that is what his job is and what we as readers have come to expect of him. An honest critical opinion of the Bills.
