this is where you lose ALL objectivity. Nate is playing football and he tackled a guy. He wouldn't have come down half as hard if another guy didn't come along and smack him after Nate "no heart" took the guy off his feet. It was a ticky-tack foul called on NC. To go off on him for that just means you have turned into another hater... Nothing Nate can do or say will be good enough for you anymore.

"I just want to be held." Good night Joseph.

Nate is already under contract. What peripheral player did he sign that prevented us from signing him? Why did Philly let him go? They usually sign their top-flight YOUNG talent and let only the old guys and malcontents go.

Are you suggesting we let Nate go and ask Indy to give us Simon?

again, what is the name of that all-pro DL that is ready to come to Buffalo? A short list maybe? The top names routinely make it to free agency right?

It is funny how every criticism comes in a vacuum. We complain mightly about our lack of DTs and lack of pass rush, when that has a direct impact on corners. We complain about the poor schemes of our DC. We complain about the poor play of our safeties. Yet, when all these adversely affect one of our most talented players - he is a bum too? I don't see it. Nate can play corner and he will make a good defensive team better.

So, instead of yelling at Nate every week, you want to yell at Eric King? This is a solution to you? Sounds like a solid plan to me...

It might break the top 50...

I'd suggest actually having an inkling of who might take the field in his place. I know that is crazy talk to people in Pennsultucky, but it is just the way we do things here in the city. If you want to shoot 1st and ask questions later - then go ahead. Clements has a ton of talent and I'm not going to throw the baby out with the bathwater because of what has happened this season.

again, this is the tired old "replace someone with no one" strategy of building a team. It is easy to say we need X in the abstract, w/o actually plugging in someone who is available.

Names? I'm assuming you want to upgrade the position. Who are you going to put there with more talent than Nate?

Ok, things change. Point taken. But for Wolf to come to Buffalo is a stretch... There are a lot of teams that would jump in the ring if he came out of retirement.

He reaffirmed it after that "rumor" broke...

I feel bad when he gets tackled... They just pick him up with his legs kicking and throw him down.

who are you replacing Nate with again?

Wolf has stated he has no interest in returning to the NFL.

Ron Wolf gets mentioned by every team, every year looking to make a change. Why would he come out of retirement for this job?

Actually having someone you want to hire and who would want to be employed at OBD would make too much sense.

This is a big mistake in my opinion... People like tradition and PT has a long one. This short term money grab will backfire IMHO.

If you don't know what happened or why - how can you declare this to be his "poorest decision"?

What was wrong with Fletcher covering Chambers?

You could have also used Tomlinson in your argument.... that might give you a different answer.

Whose post are you replying to? It doesn't make sense given the topic. The Bills would no longer exist. The name, the colors would be gone, so I don't see how anyone would follow the team in a positive way.

Why would other NFL teams give us money? I doubt I'm describing my irritation adequately... I'm just tired of the rhetoric these past weeks. I know a bunch of people who get irritated at the conversation here sometimes, I'm no different in that respect. I mean when you have people comparing today to SB XXV, you know it has gotten out of hand.
