One of Marv's first moves as GM was to throw a no one else wanted peerless price over $2M/year. I never thought this this level of overpayment and bargaining against oneself would be surpassed. Then came the Kelsay extension.

Kyle Williams: The Williams Brothers

I've noted a rise in skepticism regarding Luck on this board after the win over Detroit was posted. Sounds like sour grapes.

I posted the same concern last week. Luck does seem to dump it off a lot.

I saw about 15 plays and luck seemed to have great pocket presence but most if not all passes complete were less than 10 yards and many in the flat. Reminded me of another Stanford qb. Can someone confirm the guy can sling it downfield and I don't mean just an occasional rainbow over the top but the deep post and out as well. Mallet has lesser footwork and presence but is terrorizing the d with the deep ball every other play. I.want to get on the luck bandwagon but am concerned he is captain checksown v. 2.

Russ Brandon drafted Maybin. Right before the 09 draft Brandon was at the peak of his power, having been formally given the GM title. Maybin was another step in the Russ Brandon regionalization plan. Look East: Training camp in Rochester. Look North: The Toronto series. Where else to market? Northern Pa. I'm sure everyone remembers how quickly that corny video of Poz hamming it up with Maybin went up after the draft. I'm sure a lot of other players were in the mix with Maybin, but his Penn State connection tipped the balance in his favor. There are over 100,000 fans that flock to every Penn State home game from Northern and Western PA, and the Southern tier, a fact not overlooked by the organization and Brandon in particular.

This was s great post since it highlights that this weeks game has the number 1 rushing offense versus the number 32 rushing d. I did not realize that Thanks

This could play out like the year Eli manning came out and told sd flat out he would not play for them. Sd picked him anyway and dealt him for lots of value including a pick that became Phillip rivers. Of course the bills would pick a maybin if they picked and dealt luck.

He destroyed an unblocked blitz 3 times that last drive to make it 28 21.

I'm optimistic and say he stays healthy this week and goes on IR after Jacksonville.

If this works maybe we can re-sign Kirk chambers and deal him as well.

Mallet did fold under pressure but it was good to see a qb not afraid to push the ball downfield. He went from a top 3 to a top 15 prospect in that game. Not fast on his feet but good sensing of the pocket and makes subtle moves to avoid the rush. Strong arm and knows how to use his height advantage.

speaking of streaks have you noticed the Bills have had a very long bad run of QBs, drafts, coaches and front office personnel

Hope you were just kidding about rooting for Brady. That's just sick.

You can't talk about Billy Joe Hobert without talking about Billy Joe Tolliver. We had both Billy Joes.

1992. Laughing our way to the stadium the only question was how much we were going to blow away the rams by. The bills knew they were going to blow out the rams. All the fans knew it was going to be a blowout and even the rams knew they were going to get blown out. And you know what happened. We blew them out. Game was over in less than a quarter. 40-7.

Locker's teams have not won.

And thank god we have a nickname inexorably tied to the city name. Makes it quite a bit more costly to move the team.

I was thinking the other day after the recent stupid quote from Cutler that maybe Cutler is nothing more than just another strong armed bust and that any success he had in Denver was mainly attributable of Shanahan. Shanahan had top 5 offenses with both Brian Griese and Jake Plummer. http://www.pro-football-reference.com/teams/den/. Collins' run in '07 was remarkable. However, there is no getting around the fact that he is 40 years old and 15 years removed from his last 4 start season.

Gailey coached the Cowboys in the late 90s when the cards were still in the NFC East.

I think chris berman will be doing Spilla in Manilla Berman never goes for the obvious and even though there is no connection between buffalo the bills or football to manilla that will not dissuade him.

How do I get the mobile optimizer shut off. I woul like my I phone screens to look exactly like the full site. Thank!!!

Billy Volek - Had a resume good enough that a number of teams wanted to give him a shot as a starter, but he likes to be a backup and is sitting on the bench in San Diego, a team that needs a running back to make a run at the title. Played great in the team's biggest win over the last 10 years at Indy in the playoffs in 07.

At the end of the day you have to show that you are fair to unhappy players if you want to attract future free agents. The pats were able to play hard ball for a while but now no free agents want to go there because they know they will dumped 6 months after reaching their prime. A Houston reporter on Sirius NFL radio this morning stated that Schobel is just not made for a 3 - 4. That point is rarely brought up in the discussion of schobel.

Not too long ago the Bills and Browns used to scrimmage every year based on the proximity of their camps (3 hours between). Does anyone know if there has been talk of a Bills - Jets scrimmage? The teams could meet at Hobart in Geneva (like a 45 minute trip for both teams).
