  1. Think about it, everything is lining up right.

     

    Tenn. is comming off their first loss.

    Det. finally showed something in their last game.(they were up by 17 early)

    You know that Daunte has at least one great game in him left.

    Kerry is due for a meltdown.(Today could be his 3 int day)

    Tenn. basically already knows their getting a first round bye.

    Det. is desperite for respect.

     

    So, i'm calling it right now, biggest upset of the season(decade?).

     

     

    Detroit will lose 44-9. I'd wish the Lions would quit playing games on Thanksgiving.

  2. So far this season the total number of sacks we've got from the defensive end position is 5.

     

    5 sacks TOTAL from Schobel (1), Kelsay (1), Denny (2) and Bryan (1). That's a simply pathetic output.

     

     

    I think the Bills should trade Schobel, cut Kelsay and Denny. Then pool all of that extra money to go out and try to get Julius Peppers. 5 sacks from the defensive end position is never going to get the job done if you have any notions of being a contending team. Is this not the one player that fits our team like a glove? You can't take it with you Ralph.

     

    I've been saying the same things as well. Our DE's suck at pass rushing. If you give a good QB time to throw, he'll eat up your offense just like Brady did last year & Warner did this year.

     

    P.S.- you have to remember to say you'll sign DE's before you cut anyone, otherwise you have some braindead posters giving you crap about cutting players before signing new one's.

  3. You really need to pay more attention to some individual play. Denney isn't a pass rusher, given, but he plays a far more complete game than that "sh*t the bed" Kelsay. Denney is a backup, but a sound and competent one. Kesay was called a "Phil Hansen" type when he joined the Bills. Christ, he isn't even worth Phil Hansen's old, dirty, used jock.

     

    I will give credit to Schobel & Denney, both are good at defending against the run. But the DE's main job is to put pressure on the QB, and neither one has done a great job of it the last 2 years (even when Schobel was healthy last year & this year). No QB pressure means good QB's in the league will continue to make plays and eat our defense up (See the Cards game & our 3 division losses).

  4. Earlier you proposed sending Schobel off in a 'package deal'. So let me get this straight - you are proposing we get rid of 3 of our current DEs ? Who do we fill those spots with ? I think we should keep Schobel as starter, Denney for depth and draft/acquire a premier DE.

     

    Our DE's suck, bottom line. Kelsay & Denney are 3rd stringers, not 2nd stringers or starters. If we cut Schobel, we're gonna take a big hit with the salary cap issues. So if we trade him or package him in on a trade, then we won't take such a hit. Yes, Schobel is the best DE we have, but he's currently not playing and hasn't played for a while, and when he was healthy, he hasn't done anything since the 06' season. So in that regard, is he really worth $7 million a year?

     

    You are right, the Bills need to wait and get players to fill the positions before they start cutting people loose. But DE is our biggest weakness on the team.

  5. I thought at the time they were signed the thought was we have decent players and too many other holes on this team to address DE at the time, sign them so we can concentrate in weaker areas. I think Ellis is an attempt to address these two upcoming holes and I hope a 1st day pick this year will help as well. Adding a pass rushing RDE will go a long way to making this D work well.

     

    It sucks that McCargo can't get his head out of his bum because it would be nice to try Spencer Johnson on the edge.

     

    Good post!

  6. Why trade Schobel ? He performs well but he is the only good DE on our team. We absolutely need a top-flight DE to complement him which will make AS much better.

     

    Schobel had 5 or 6 sacks last year, and didn't do much this year when he was healthy. For a guy that makes $7 million a year, you expect a hell of a lot more in return.

     

    I don't know why Schobel hasn't been placed on IR? Any word on his injury? Is he's close to coming back?

     

    My point on Schobel is we're shelling out a ton of money to him, one- he hasn't earned it, I thought he was overpaid when given the contract extension (I'm not saying he's a bad player, but not worth the $49 million contract he got), two- he possibly is damaged goods with his inury.

  7. Vick and the Wildcat: He can run for 100 in his sleep, so can Marshawn..who then needs receivers or a TE since it is painfully obvious the Buffalo Bills front office will NEVER fully address that issue anyway?

     

    Sign me up for the Vick bandwagon

     

    Another F@!king Vick thread. Give me a break already! There's no way in hell Vick comes to Buffalo. I even doubt Roger Goodell will reinstate him when his jail time is up. Vick has all the physical tools, but is a piece of sh@t just like Travis Henry.

  8. Lets hope he grows. Watching that guy play he always gets pushed around, watching him warm up with the other DL's, it looks like the Bills pulled some guy out of the stands to play ball. I think he's a very small DE. I dont think he will be any better then backup and thats being to honest.

     

    So far, I have to agree. We can only hope he bulks up and gets better, otherwise he will need to go as well. I'd give him 1 more year, if he doesn't get any better, cut him.

  9. If your offensive game plan falls apart and your QB curls up in a ball muttering gibberish because JOSH REED got injured, you need a new freaking offense.

     

    That's my point. It's just not a coincedence. Once Reed went down our offense (especially our QB) has not been the same. The Bills have no #2 receiver. I wouldn't even consider Reed a legit #2 WR. I blame the Bills FO for not getting a veteran WR in the offseason.

  10. Since Josh Reed went down with an injury, our offense and especially Trent Edwards has not been the same. Lee Evans has not been able to get open. Our other WR's have not been able to step up and fill the void. And Trent Edwards doesn't have a reliable WR to consistently throw it to. Trent seems shell shocked out there and has taken several steps back since Reed has been down.

     

    Anyone have any updates on Reed's injury status?

  11. I'm wondering if we go 7-9 for a 3rd year in a row, does Dick keep his job?

     

    Did Steve Fairchild start possessing the body of Turk Schonert?

     

    Did Losman start possessing the body of Edwards?

     

    Josh Reed goes out with an injury and our whole offense goes down the tubes?!

     

    I think Bruce Smith at his age now could get more pressure on the QB than the clowns we have at DE.

  12. I'd like to help you out BB, but.. my Dad is 75 and called to B word after the game yesterday -how it ruined a great day at the sports bar they were at in Florida. I'm 53 and I was in bed at 7:30 last night, not wanting to do a GD thing.. (it didn't help that it was pitch black outside..)

     

    No, my brother Bills fan, it not only doesn't get easier, it hurts worse.

     

    Best wishes!!

     

    I agree, I was miserable all night long after the game & today as well. :wallbash:
