May Day 10

wow. If it were this season, what a great schedule. I wonder what the Toronto game will be,

yes, I believe that is the order.

I can see both sides of the benching argument. Signing him is a no-brainer IMO though.

its not all about him. I am just ready to hop off the train. Sick of the cycle of letting talented players go and create holes. I really think this team can be poised to turn a corner this offseason. Re-sign #13, maybe get another WR, try to create a pass rush. They arent far off... But I think it will be obvious what their intentions are. Losing SJ is an indication they are taking another step backward.

I dont think anything is coming.

If they let him walk, they let me walk too.

This should be a fireable offense. unless they are happy that Gailey helped turn public opinion against Stevie Johnson. If he didnt get benched like this, its not a big deal at all.

did Johnson get flagged for writing on his shirt the last time? I thought Hernandez's taunting earlier was much worse and he is still playing.

i had no problem with Gailey before. This game pushes me over the edge. Way too far. Costs them the game even more directly that #13's antics.

maybe Gailey is showing management that the offense is hopeless without #13.

-runners -tight ends that don't get hurt -wide receivers

This whole operation sucks and needs to be blown up. It. Wont until rw is no longer the owner. This guy is making judgements and decisions as a barely lucid 93 year old. He speaks like he is the only one who has a clue, while fans, local media, national media, former bills players who have gone elsewhere don't have any knowledge. The attitude he still has is a macro view of the team. Even at 93 can't he just say and think things like: 'we think we have the start of a good core, we are going to try to find the missing pieces and depth. In order to afford the extra salary, rogers is buying a game a year at a premium.'

Who are the top tight ends who don't get hurt and runners in this year's draft?

^^^ I agree with this. If the Bills stay and a new owner steps in, it will be a glorious time for all of us. You know the front office will be nuked and we will start fresh.

haha. i remember one time Reed backed into the endzone. Kelly is right. The first guy to greet him was a very angry Marv.

I am at the breaking point. Never thought it was possible. If they let Stevie Johnson walk, Im done. Thats it.

this reminds me of the Bills' early season wins. Common sense says it isnt sustainable. 100 things had to happen that arent directly influenced by Tebow and the Broncos won. Many of them lucky. This has happened what 5 or 6 times now... and all against poor teams. The guy is passing below 50%.

Can you blame these players for wanting to get out of this organization?

The Bills need new leadership. Russ Brandon is running the team. We have Buddy Nix as the front man on the football side. We have Overdorf and Littman really pulling the strings from behind the curtain. Before long, Gailey (who is actually trying) will take the fall. Maybe Nix too. Then we will see new individuals brought in who arent desireable. Again, we will be made to feel it is Buffalo/our fault. Brandon/Littman/Underdorf will remain in place. This is just going to repeat until RW passes. I am convinced this organization has winning as a very low priority. Its really tough as a fan. We need a new owner who can nuke the office, bring in a real football executive and build from there. Good people will come here if the organization is being led correctly. Its not a Buffalo thing.

easily none. On almost every level. I think we may have a decent base with an ownership/management willing to win. In that case, the Bills are ahead of some teams. However, that is washed out IMO as I truly believe winning is a low priority. Lower than any other NFL team. The owner/management isnt going anywhere. Also sprinkle in the franchise uncertainty and we are rock bottom.

Its hard to imagine that so many Football Ops staffs are coming in and burning the "staples" of the Bills organization over and over again. There are constants there at OBD and any owner who had winning as a priority would have nuked the front office no later than the time Marv retired. Certain power brokers there keep their jobs no matter how many terrible decisions are made. Other guys take the fall, rinse and repeat. There is an endless list of events and clues that indicate that this is a second rate organization. People are either in complete denial or blame it on the fans and the facility... or any of the gms, coaches, and scouts who were let go/resigned.

I think this should be a pivotal offseason for you. Its a s&^% or get off the pot time. If they dont sign Johnson, thinking Easley can fill the spot, and dont make move on creating some sort of pass rush... I might be gone too. Ive been a fan since the early 80's. I could take losing. I just cant take hopelessness and ownership/management so committed against winning.

wash and repeat. Same story. Different players, GM, coaches. The constants are the ones who should be criticized and nobody else: Wilson, Littman, Brandon, and Overdorf.

How is russ brandon a fantastic marketing executive? Other than the training camp extravaganza from his first days. Frankly, the Bills' marketing has been lazy and uninspiring compared to any other major pro sports franchise. From ads to game presentation. Also, we dont sell out a game, and this 'marketing genious' throws dirt in the fans' faces by saiying he doesnt want to 'devalue the product'. I didnt mind them not eating the tix, but that comment really hit me in a bad way. In fact, it convinced me to no-show on Sunday. This guy is only in there due to him making Ralph money with the St John Fisher thing, and Ralph being too old to care about growing the franchise. And Brandon is the CEO or COO now, right?

Russ Brandon is also a constant since the failure. I see the hiring of Nix as GM a new rebuild. I would like them to stick this one out and not toss it away afte 3 years like usual.
