Buddy Nix to retire after 2012 draft?
Punch replied to Jdragon2's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Interesting opinion from Tim Graham: Tim Graham ByTimGraham Tim Graham I'm not reporting Polian is returning to Buffalo, folks. Read carefully. ... Just two guys talking, but source is wise. 1 hour ago Favorite Retweet Reply Tim Graham ByTimGraham Tim Graham Had interesting talk with NFL source. Began chat thinking Polian return to Bills absurd. Then we talked ourselves into believing possible. 1 hour ago -
He was released by Dallas earlier in the season then signed by Washington for a few weeks, then released again. We had the highest priority waiver claim and he was awarded to us 2 weeks ago.

That's certainly a bold assessment. At what point did you come to that conclusion?

The Official Bills at Jets Game Thread
Punch replied to Just Jack's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I blame Rayner for that Stevie drop. -
Threads like this are ridiculous. I can't imagine anyone that backed Fitz in the past will have had his or her opinion changed by today's performance. It's nothing we haven't seen before and it's not even particularly alarming considering the circumstances (injuries, gameplan, the Cowboys ran out to a big lead, Fitz' limitations).

He will definitely draw attention.

Falcons go for it on 4th on their own 29 in OT?!?
Punch replied to bbb's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I agree on all counts. The handoff to Turner was so slow developing that the play never had a chance unless the Falcons O-line completely blew the Saints off the line... and they didn't even come close. -
Some inspiration for next week's game
Punch replied to Bills!Win!'s topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
What was the result in the Bills-Cowboys game that followed Mark Miller's commentary in that video? I'd like it to go a slightly different way this time thank you very much! -
Tim Graham: Ryan to make Maybin a captain for Bills game
Punch replied to PromoTheRobot's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
This response by Chris Brown is dead on in regards to Maybin. His pass rushing skills are not leading to sacks, it's his hustle in not giving up on a play that has--- in obvious passing situations and usually late in games. He's still getting pushed wide by the LT on every play or pancaked. The Jets are devastated by injuries on the outside and desperate for an OLB-- if not for that he'd still be in street clothes. I don't hate the guy, but he's no better today than he was in training camp. For a guy that claims to be team first and unselfish it does still grate at me a bit that he held out his entire rookie training camp (which arguably stunted his pro development) and seemingly spent more time promoting himself through rap videos than developing football technique and learning how to properly maintain the mass on his frame. -
Don Banks Midseason Report: Surprise.....
Punch replied to ganesh's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
While it's true that Fred, Stevie and Fitz were brought in pre-Nix--- Buddy, Chan, Whaley, Moody, etc. all work hand in hand on talent evaluation, and those 3 players were never given a chance to be unquestioned fulltime starters until Nix/Gailey. Guys like Chandler, Urbik, Pears, Barnett, Merriman, Dwan Edwards, etc. were brought in by Nix, not to mention the numerous draft picks that have become major contributors. And of course, he hired the perfect coach for this team. If Nix isn't a candidate for Exec. of the Year (all of the above wasn't necessarily accomplished in one year, of course) then I don't know what type of executive can possibly be considered eligible. He's done a hell of a job thus far, and there's still work to be done. Not bad in such a short time. -
Maybin has 0.5 less sacks than our entire team
Punch replied to deep2evans's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Aaron Maybin has become the Tim Tebow of pass rushing. -
I'm not expecting a trade for Lloyd, Wayne, or anyone else but I don't think where Spiller lined up yesterday has any specific bearing on future roster plans. They needed to win the game and they used their available personnel creatively. We could just as easily say that the lack of a deep threat against the Giants is a sign the Bills are probably interested in bringing in a field stretching WR and lining CJ up as a WR was a move made out of desperation.

Levitre Ranked best guard in nfl through 5
Punch replied to Billshank Redemption's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I haven't seen it but I'm under the assumption this may be a Pro Football Focus ranking? -
Because Brandon Lloyd is a much more complete receiver than Lee Evans, by a country mile, and willing to play the position the way Chan's offense requires.

What is Chad Kelly (Jim's nephew) hinting at?
Punch replied to Doc's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
According to Tim Graham, Gillett no longer has the wealth to buy a majority ownership stake. At best he'd be part of a group. If his only involvement were his dollars, as a minority shareholder, then that's the only way it would be acceptable, and even then he's undesirable. -
Berman said "you know this is difficult for me" 3-4 times... he was clearly distraught that he was picking the Eagles. He's a pro, and he made a logical pick, like a pro. He also wasn't afraid to reveal where his heart was, which is why we all love him. Why anyone would have a hard time with it is beyond me.

I think everyone in New Jersey is unhappy with Lil' Schotts. Wonder what this says about Andre Johnson's recovery?

Bills sign WR Tim Toone to practice squad
Punch replied to papazoid's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I was thinking Wes Welker based on that video! -
What is Chad Kelly (Jim's nephew) hinting at?

Well, I would hope to holy hell that Terry Pegula gets involved... the more (billionaires) the merrier! -
What is Chad Kelly (Jim's nephew) hinting at?
Punch replied to Doc's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
It has to be Golisano, right? I realize he's not a current NHL owner but he has a relationship with Kelly and has openly stated he'd be interested in keeping the Bills in Buffalo. -
Bills @ Giants: National Game on CBS
Punch replied to Dorkington's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
It should be fun because Phil Simms is a huge fan of Fitz. I've heard Simms gushing about him in two seperate games he's worked this season, including Jets-Pats yesterday. He also gave detailed comments to The Buffalo News before the season in an article discussing whether or not Fitz is a longterm solution or stopgap, and the amount of info Simms had on him led me to believe he's studied film on the Amish Rifle. -
Pretty Sick And Tired About Know It All "Media"
Punch replied to BuffaloBaumer's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
There are two relevant stories related to this game: 1) the Bills' "No Names" on a roll and 2) the "Dream Team's" implosion. The Eagles imploding is a story that has more to meat to it at the moment because it probably won't last all season. If the Bills can keep it up they'll be one of the biggest stories of the year and will justifiably be regarded as such. The Bills will get plenty of media attention throughout the week just as they did following Weeks 1, 2, and 3. It'll more than likely be and even greater quantity, as well. -
He's a bandwagon fan because he only has 200 message board posts?

Pretty Sick And Tired About Know It All "Media"
Punch replied to BuffaloBaumer's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
How many defenses are going to shut down high powered offenses like those of the Pats and Eagles? Intercepting Tom Brady and Michael Vick 4 times each is more of a trend than a coincidence. The Bills have aggressive playmakers on defense... certainly there is room for improvement, but this defense wasn't in the kind of shape that an overnight quick fix could handle. The media is just reaching for the easy answers based on highlights, there's no anti-Buffalo agenda. Typically, once the reality of the game details are made evident the correct analysis is made. This is a young talented defense that still has holes. Interestingly, the same can be said for the defenses of both New England and Philadelphia. -
Joe B WGR: Did Trent turn down the Dolphins?
Punch replied to PromoTheRobot's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Fwiw, David Garrard also turned down a contract offer from the Dolphins, citing the money which showed him Miami was not committed to keeping him on the roster for the duration of the season. http://espn.go.com/nfl/story/_/id/7075859/david-garrard-bristles-dolphins-wants-chance Also, !@#$ Trent Edwards.
