The impressive thing about Nic Harris is his life story. You must root for men like Nic, whether he makes it as a pro football player or not. He has made it as a man, which is more than most on this board. There are intangibles beyond whether or not he makes the team that you must look at. Also Bowen and Harris both blew out knees. That they have not made it back from serious injury is unfortunate but not because they "suck". I'd rather root for a losing team full of Bowens & Harris's then some collection of prima donna's like the new Miami Heat or NY Jets.

next to the axe murderer is Mike Montler OL, 6-5 254. How times have changed.

Haslett is sending him the message, not Shanahan

Just what is a real Bills fan? What you think one should be? That thinking is arrogant. Last year we were 7-9 against a very easy schedule. This year we will be better coached but against a much more difficult schedule. Our team will be improved, maybe one step forward, but our competition is not taking a step back but two steps forward especially in the AFC East. Anything over 4 wins would be a good season for this team. Giving an analysis of your team, good or bad, has nothing to do with being a real fan. Actually a real fan doesn't have his head in the sand but looks at their team and the competition.

We will have a very hard time beating the chiefs, lions or browns.

Lookie lookie here comes Cookie

Things go better with Coke and Jones takes that a step further. Pass on this sub human.

Agreed, what the heck is the matter with ESPN? They could have been talking about Favre non stop.....

Would have been a second round pick if it weren't for the injuries. Sign and put him on the shelf for a year. He was one of the top five wideouts in college last year.

He wants to play this year and will play in Buffalo. He just doesn't think he needs a lot of training camp to learn the new defense. I think he is wrong and disingenuous. He wants his fully year salary but he won't give a full year effort as he will not be fully prepared. Frankly, I'd keep him on the team until the day before game 1 and then cut his sorry ass.

In 2010 we will be much more competitive when we lose. It is usually that way with a new coach and a poor team.

I think you try to think too much.

and aaron is good player but not a great player by any stretch.

If Edwards is a surprise it will be on account of Spiller being an all-purpose running and receiving weapon.

Lou Saban, at halftime after a lackluster first half performance, gave a rousing halftime talk that rallied the team to victory. I don't know the exact words he said because he gave the speech in Chinese. The players all cracked up. I don't think anyone in the NFL has ever come close to being this creative. In WWII he was an Army interpreter.

the logic of your conclusion is simply absurd. win/loss is determined by play on the field not whether or not a team is thought of as a poor or good team in the first place.

addition by subtraction

Well what do you call it when he decided to no longer play?

To say that they have not done much is not preposterous. Butler quit, Dockery was cut, Fowler was cut, Walker was cut and Peters did his flame thing. They have new players there simply because they had to field a team. Hangartner was a back up OL when we signed him, he started 07 due to injury and would not start the next season for carolina so they let him go. Green was about the 10th best RT available and that is being charitable. Meredith & Bell were on practice squads in 08. How do you call that addressing anything? It is picking scraps. Wood and Levitre were drafted because we had to pick an OL guy because we were simply out of bodies. As for Calloway, drafting guys in the 6th round is not addressing a need, it is simply filling depth with cheap labor. "Competition makes us better" is one of the most over used, over abused nonsensical sayings in football.

front office doing very credible job this year

And you are thinking that you are cool cuz you pack heat and they are asses for smoking pot in font of their kids.

Gailey will demonstrate that he has a plan and is a first rate coach. Bills will demonstrate that they are a tier 3 club in need of serious help. they play better but only to lose closer.
