I think this is more of a product of the type of players that we are putting on the field (smallish/quick) and the Strength and Conditioning rather than camp. Levy ran a camp that was often referred to as "Camp Marv" because of how light and soft it was. Yet there were not near the injuries...

Holy Crap you're right on with this. People forget that before the "Bills of the 90's" went to the Superbowls they were the "Bickering Bills"

I like the idea as well. There are a few problems that I see with this however. 1. Perry Fewell is "auditioning" for a job (if not with the Bills with another team) as a HC. I think Perry believes Fitzy gives him the best chance to win right now. 2. Brohm has been with the team for a few weeks. So there is no way he is up to speed on systems and language. So he may look terrible and this may not be reflective of what he is capable of. This isn't fair to Brohm. (Now on the other hand, what if he comes in and plays well....) I just don't see this happening...

Thats the spirit!!!!!

If you don't care...why are you on the board? Come March we would all love to watch a Bills/Chiefs game...

Had Wood not gotten injured IMO he would have bumped Levitre from this list. Or perhaps the Bills would have had 3 on this list. Maybin pick aside (he could still do something in the future) the Bills had a great draft.

I voted for a quality GM. However, even teams with boat loads of talent and a crappy HC will most likely underachieve. See San Diego. Here is a team that annually is ranked among the tops in the league in terms of talent. A lot of people would say that they have under achieved, in large part because of Norv Turner. Bottom line is, ultimately you need both a good GM and HC.

He got into a drunken fight outside of a bar....(point # 8) Never happened to anyone else I know... I agree will most of your other points...Good analysis. I must have missed that Maybin move, wish I had seen it because I have never seen him make a move inside.

Well he could certainly have potential at OLB. I'm just saying...he is not a DE right now

Erik Flowers version 2.0... His only hope to play DE is to put on some serious size and learn a second move...

Another great pick by modrack and guy coming your way....in 140 days...

You could not be more right. The fact that we ran a gimmick play tells you something.

I would love to hear what Schonert would do with the practice squad o line the bills are fielding. Scott, levitre, hangartner, simmons, chambers (meredeth) Are you kidding? 2 PS players...(one from another team), 1 rookie and 1 guy coming off major injury who has been with the team for 2 weeks. NO Offensive coordinator has a chance with that kind of offensive line. The Bills had Max protect most of the night (2 backs or TE's) staying in to block or chipping and releasing and the Jets were still pounding Fitz...

My thoughts on the game Further updates as events warrant.

Hahaha. If that works. I will go buy a pair of ruby slippers NOW

Sorry, I would rather see the team win. Besides...high draft picks do not necessarily correlate to winning. (See our last 10 #1 picks : 2000 2000 Erik Flowers 2001 Nate Clements 2002 Mike Williams 2003 Willis McGahee 2004 Lee Evans 2004 J.P. Losman 2005 No 1st Round Pick, Roscoe Parrish (2nd Round) 2006 Donte Whitner 2006 John McCargo 2007 Marshawn Lynch 2008 Leodis McKelvin 20091 Aaron Maybin 20091 Eric Wood Not a whole lot of success here....Plenty of starters come from rounds 2, 3 and 4 I think that the model for winning is trading down in the 1st round and collecting picks. The Bills had success with this under Polian and the Patriots have exercised this practice very effectively. Higher draft pick means higher and higher salary. If a high end first round pick doesn't pan out, it can be a terrible financial hit, especially to a small market team.

Yep. The guy is a terrible analyst.

God forbid 9-7?!?! 9-7 and we have a legit shot at a playoff spot! It will have also meant that Fewell would have gone 6-1 (narrowly losing his first game on the road.) I would be JUST FINE with this outcome. Granted, I get what your saying about 9-7 being a let down during the "glory years". BUT we are far removed from that. Considering the past decade...and the start to this season...I'm absolutely pleased.

Has Ye Ole' been drinking since noon?

Probably doesn't merit it own thread. But I can't stand Young as a analyst. I find him arrogant and uniformed, with the exception to QB play. ESPN was doing a Bills vs Jets game preview...around 46 seconds in Young talks about a Jets vs. Dolphins match up instead... Moron. Am I missing something? Unless I'm a total idiot....I feel as though if your giving a brief breakdown on a game, you should be able to get the two teams right... http://espn.go.com/

Those uniforms assaulted my vision.

This may have some validity. Honestly, though, I think that our biggest liability in facing the 3-4 has been Trent's ability to read it.

You and a LOT of other folks, including me. But I would also be OK with a return to the 90s unis. ANYTHING is better than the jumpsuit of Navy Blue that we currently wear.
