  1. Nice work, but it's probably falling on deaf ears....as deaf as ours.
  2. We're DOOOOOOMED, I say....DOOOOOOOOOOOMED! without Peters.
  3. I know that this might be throwing a stone at the beehive, but wouldn't it be incredible if the Bills play lights out without Peters. Don't get me wrong, I like Peters and really want him to play, but the Bills playing great without him would be the best possible scenario for us fans. Jason would see that we don't really need him and are willing to let him sit. Then, when he decided to return on his own, our already great O-line would get even better. It seems to me that some of the same people who get mad when someone here says they hope Losman doesn't do well so there is no QB controversy, are the same people who hope the Bills suffer without Peters so we'll have to bring him back. Let's be consistent with the crazy, please.
  4. Hmm...All thoughs accolades and he still went undrafted. He still has to prove it to me for one more year before I hand him the keys to the vault.
  5. Let's see. I said - 1.Who cares what his average salary for is his career is. He used to be an average TE, now he's a LT. this article said - Peters has taken one of the more unusual paths to NFL stardom, and ironically it was due to his freakish physical abilities. After committing to Arkansas out of high school, the Razorback coaching staff was in such awe of his athleticism for a player his size, they could not decide where to put him. I said - 2. Who cares what the average salary is of the top 5 LT's is. He is not a top 5 LT. Pass blocking maybe top 2 or 3, but his run blocking has a lot to be desired. This article said - Peters not only handles the opponent's best pass rusher on a weekly basis, he does it with no help. This article said - He just has to continue to play," said McNally. "The only person that can stop Jason Peters is himself. His ability is limitless I said - If he proved to me this year that he can do both then I agree and pay him. yeah, we're pretty far off.

  7. If he's done playing now...about 5 1/2 mil a year the last two years.
  8. You mean like taking a TE and training him and turning him into a LT
  9. I know I'm but I fixed it for you. I might suggest that you get out of Jason's pants. He's acting like a little baby. Sorry....big baby.
  10. I said the same thing in another thread. The whole thing is really weird. It reminds me of the guy in philly. He said he was really depressed and it got worse when he read their message boards and someone started a thread that said he was gay.
  11. we always do a sabres weekend and stay at Comfort suites. it's right on Chippawa. there's a TGIF's on the ground floor and walking distance to bars and Jim's Steakout for a chicken finger sub. the metro's free anywhere above ground.
  12. Great site. I've added it to my list of Buffalo resources. I plan on telling my other Buff ex-pats about it as well.
  13. There is nothing written anywhere that says Jason Peters has to play football to make money(unless, of course, you count the contract he already signed with the Bills). These are the rules in place. If he doesn't like them, he can take his talents elsewhere, say, the corner bar as a bouncer. Or maybe the grocery store collecting carts. He has other options.
  14. I agree with all of that, too. And I know we can't run to the left on every play. But with the same RB, QB and receivers as last year, how is it a direct relationship that Peters = Playoffs? I think the other additions on the line and on D will have a bigger effect on our season(in a good way).
  15. I agree with all of that...kind of. If he was so dominant then why didn't we run to the left on every play? Why was our offense still so atrocious? Why does everyone think that without him this year the team is in ruin, even though last year he wasn't enough to make a difference? I want to see him finish a season before I pay him.
  16. How do we know his last season wasn't a fluke. Or his injury.
  17. Like seeing a player on your team that is getting payed as a TE even though he is playing Tackle. So you re-negotiate his contract and pay him what you both thought was fair at the time. Yeah, the Bills really should have done this. What exactly should the Bills do here. Go to his house with a bucket of money, get on there knees and beg him to come back, maybe give him a happy ending as a gesture of good will. He's a grown man(I think). Grown men go to work. He should honor his contract(like what any of us would do) and go to work.
  18. Why do you keep bringing up how much money wilson has. Like this whole thing is just about him saving a couple of pennies. I just don't understand why you ride Wilson for being only about the money but you give Peters a pass for the very same thing.
  19. I like cooking(and eating) wings at 9:30 in the morning. Steam pooring out of the deep fryer by the back bumper on a crisp November morn'. Man, this season can't get here soon enough. Oh yeah...and BOOZE.
  20. I got nothin' new to add here, just an observation. What's with the title of this thread...FINALLY PETERS MIGHT REPORT. That doesn't say anything. And all caps no less...like there was some important new news we didn't know about. That doesn't tell us anything. It's like saying,"There is a 100% chance that I might get cancer." It doesn't mean that i will, but boy is it sure sounds important.
  21. I have now forever replaced Nostrovia(sp?) with PosLUSZny!!!!!! Thank you
  22. His reverse 911 call to all season ticket holders, telling them how excited he was to be a Bill and that he was going to do everything he could to help the team win, went a long way with me. I'm sure it had that effect on a lot of people. I have never had a Bills jersey(just got my first Sabre's jersey as well) but am thinking about getting a Poz.
  23. Personal attacks aside, I've been pretty entertained reading this thread all night. The only thing I would add is that I'm not sure Peters is worth more money...Yet. If you add his signing bonus and his salary for the last two years I think it would work out to 5.5mil a year...for a Right taclke for 8 games and a left tackle that didn't finish the season. I think he was overpayed
