mousetrap08 Posted August 27, 2014 Posted August 27, 2014 I heard it but he all so said that the Bills playoff drought will continue.
C.Biscuit97 Posted August 27, 2014 Posted August 27, 2014 Pete Carroll couldn't win couldn't win with boomer or whitehurst though.... Jus sayin. Carroll won a playoff game with Hasselback and built one of the great college programs of all time.
G-Daddy Posted August 27, 2014 Posted August 27, 2014 Stay healthy, get decent qb production and we should be a wc. Time will tell.
Big C Posted August 27, 2014 Posted August 27, 2014 IDK guys. we may have more big name players like CJ Spiller and Mario Williams, but the Pats get no-name guys like Shane Vereen or the little white dude from a few years ago to out perform our guys. They cut a guy like Spikes and he is out best FA signing. I think our roster is better than theres on a Madden video game but not likely in real life. If we switched coaches maybe, but... To be fair, Danny Woodhead has also been pretty good for the Chargers. Also, they didn't cut Spikes. There was some tension between him and the organization, culminating in Spikes getting put on IR before the playoffs because he was late to practice.
Buftex Posted August 27, 2014 Posted August 27, 2014 I have been listening to Clayton for years giving interviews like this one, to local sports talk radio shows. For the record,he pretty much blows smoke up the collective asses of the market he is broadcasting. He always spins positive on the Bills on GR...but he will paint a different picture on national shows. Don't hate the guy at all, but take his football opinions with a huge grain of salt.
Pneumonic Posted August 27, 2014 Posted August 27, 2014 Clayton's stating the obvious. The sal cap has evened the playing field such that what separates the best teams from the alsorans are coaching and QB play. The Pats happen to have the best at both spots .... thus they have been dominant during this time.
Webster Guy Posted August 27, 2014 Posted August 27, 2014 IDK guys. we may have more big name players like CJ Spiller and Mario Williams, but the Pats get no-name guys like Shane Vereen or the little white dude from a few years ago to out perform our guys. They cut a guy like Spikes and he is out best FA signing. I think our roster is better than theres on a Madden video game but not likely in real life. If we switched coaches maybe, but... They've cut a lot of good players. Milloy, Welker to name a few. Crazy arrogance in that organization. That's why I love watching them choke every year. I love the close ups of Bill and Kraft's smug faces when they realize they arent good enough anymore. I think they had a recent 5 year streak of not winning a playoff game even with home field advantage and a HOF qb in his prime, but nobody noticed.
Tu-Toned Posted August 27, 2014 Posted August 27, 2014 (edited) I like Mary Ann. Me too, but I would do Ginger! Edited August 27, 2014 by Tu-Toned
Clippers of Nfl Posted August 27, 2014 Posted August 27, 2014 They've cut a lot of good players. Milloy, Welker to name a few. Crazy arrogance in that organization.

I think they had a recent 5 year streak of not winning a playoff game even with home field advantage and a HOF qb in his prime, but nobody noticed. I like those shots too. I like seeing Brady pout like a girl too.
BillsVet Posted August 27, 2014 Posted August 27, 2014 He should have cheated better with the Browns. Art Modell was too busy cheating the city of Cleveland off the field for Belichick to do too much of the on-field variety.
Beerball Posted August 27, 2014 Posted August 27, 2014 The fellas at NFL Network have been saying this for a while--that The Bills have 21 starters that are as good or better than the Patriots'* but the 22nd will make all the difference. Don't forget long snapper, we hold a distinct advantage there too.
The Big Cat Posted August 27, 2014 Posted August 27, 2014 Don't forget long snapper, we hold a distinct advantage there too. Exactly
Beerball Posted August 27, 2014 Posted August 27, 2014 Every other qb under Belichick sucked besides Brady. That highschool QB looked pretty good for the better part of a season. Stay healthy, get decent qb production and we should be a wc. Time will tell. Water closet?
Whites Bay Posted August 27, 2014 Posted August 27, 2014 The graphic that got me was during the Pittsburgh game a couple of weeks ago. It listed all of Buffalo's first-round picks. Not just the ones that Buffalo has picked (Dareus, McKelvin, Spiller, etc.), but all the first-rounders that they've picked up in Free Agency. People like Williams and Williams and Rivers and Hughes and Lawson. I mean, the list just went on and on and on. I never really realized how many top-round picks were on this roster. And eventually the light bulb HAS to go on and the team has to gel. I mean...right? I have to say...it REALLY left a bad taste in my mouth.
Spillnation Posted August 27, 2014 Posted August 27, 2014 Claytons awesome. " I'm taking you to the mall my man!", still hilarious.
B-Man Posted August 27, 2014 Posted August 27, 2014 They've cut a lot of good players. Milloy, Welker to name a few. Crazy arrogance in that organization.

You have to look fast to see Bill's.................................he usually runs off the field as fast as he can. .
Reed83HOF Posted August 27, 2014 Posted August 27, 2014 (edited) I saw a tweet from Sal Cappacio this morning that Clayton apparently said the Bills (and I'm paraphrasing) "have just as many good players as the Pats* and will compete for a WC if EJ progresses." It is a fair and accurate statement. This is why a lot of our woes and concern is focused on EJ. There was a post a month or so ago that dealt with how far we would go with a a top 5 QB. Great QB play solves a ton of our problems. It also puts an enormous bulls-eye on the back of EJ from not only the fans, but Brandon, Whaley and his teammates. Edited August 28, 2014 by Reed83HOF
TPS Posted August 27, 2014 Posted August 27, 2014 I think that is the assessment for most rational people here, the Bills will go as far as EJ can take them.
G-Daddy Posted August 27, 2014 Posted August 27, 2014 That highschool QB looked pretty good for the better part of a season. Water closet? Perhaps, but I was thinking wild card.
BuffaloBaumer Posted August 27, 2014 Posted August 27, 2014 Is it really that hard to figure out the difference between that good teams and the bad teams. Let's just go through the teams that have made the playoffs the last few years....now WHAT could they possibly have that we don't......hmmmm
