NavyBillsFan Posted October 5, 2004 Posted October 5, 2004 Yonaton Aronoff (Buffalo, NY): This team hasn't had a dominant offensive or defensive line in 10+ years. You've done quite well at the skill positions, but those aren't what win close games. When are you going to finally put together a decent offensive line? When are all of the defensive ends you've drafted going to start generating pressure consistently? TD: We think that our three young defensive ends are as good as there are in the league. They are at various stages of development. The only one who really has tremendous experience is Aaron Schobel. Our coaching staff is very high on Chris Kelsay and is very high on Ryan Denney. They are continuing to work hard and they are getting better all the time. It's not fair to ask us to answer for the last 10 years. We're only responsible for the last several years and we are working hard to make our line stronger. Our line played much better against New England yesterday until probably the last two minutes of the game. As for our defensive line, we had one of the top defenses in the league last year and still do this year so there has been improvement on the defensive line. The offensive line is still a work in progress for us.
Mark VI Posted October 5, 2004 Posted October 5, 2004 What do you expect him to say ? " You're right. What was I thinking ? I thought I was drafting for the Bolshoi Ballet ! " It's just a PR work. You can predict the answer before even reading it. Take it at face value. Those are the kind of articles we should ignore, since they lack any honest opinion or insight.

His "up and up" attitude would work great in a casino, not the Buffalo Bills. This city wants a winner, not a "we are high on this player"! What the hell does that mean? Were "high"? You all sniffing clue in MM office? This team is becomming a circus. Great players and idiots for a coaching staff. Our scouts SUCK. These guys must be in TD's office playing gay poop games or something to keep their jobs. RALPH, PLEASE SAVE THIS TEAM!
USMCBillsFan Posted October 5, 2004 Posted October 5, 2004 I get tired of hearing him say "they are in various stages of development". Then get some players that are no longer in the womb. We don't need "stages of development", we need playmakers.....NOW!!!

At this rate Ryan Denney should be a dominant pass rushing DE when he's 68 years old.

Who's with me on kidnapping and brainwashing the KC offensive line? I know the Bills have been improving, and have had their moments-but watching a good line like last night was like watchinga well oiled machine. Watching the Bills sometimes is like seeing a hand grenade go off in a school of fish.

RALPH, PLEASE SAVE THIS TEAM! 57093[/snapback] You sure do panic a lot for a Navy guy. Aren't you supposed to be calm under pressure? Why would you go off calling TD a moron, the team a circus, and suggest they were playing games that involved a word that is so childish that the board replaced with with the word "stevestojan." We're three games into the season and I would say our coaching staff has done more right than wrong. You need to chill, man. But panic away if you must. I guess I'll have to rely on the jarheads for composure.

Instead of the above phrase, you'll just hear " pat,pat,pat,pat,pat " with the arms nervously twitching...

It repeats over and over until you drop it for a loss of 6.

BuffOrange Posted October 5, 2004 Posted October 5, 2004 Can anyone think of an example when it took a good DE more than 3 years to develop? Wiley doesn't count b/c he was behind Bruce - these guys we have now are actually getting playing time. You can either rush the passer or you can't. Our guys can't.

What time do they let you guys out of your rooms for medicine and jello?
Chalkie Gerzowski Posted October 5, 2004 Posted October 5, 2004 Donahoe should have just said..... 17 wins 34 losses Save the postage Donahoe is better suited for ESPN, so he can sit at that computer and look at emails and occasionally wink over at Tubby Berman.
