Shredded on that drive.

Those 2 for me as well. They summed up the new century Bills, snatching defeat from the jaws of victory.

Well on the bright side, he's driving down the price on his next long term contract.

Good for all these surgeries. Nothing more frustrating than having some key player put off surgery hoping it will heal, then by August realizes rest didnt cure the problem and he gets the surgery and misses half the season.

People on this board spend hours weekly here, do yourself a favor and spend 1 hour online and look into stop and frisk in NYC. Imagine if alcohol stayed in your system for a month or 2 instead of hours. Spend sometime researching how many people the land of free have in prison compared to other countries. See the relationship of the for profit prison corporate world paired with the prison gaurd unions. They both have the same goal, more prisoners means more profit, more union jobs. I say this as a union member, but I can see hypocrisy. Actually I dont buy the slippery slope arguement. It's not about your teenager legally buying heroin or cocaine, that's not going to happen. It's about coming to the rationalization that someone taking a few hits off a doobie in his home or around a camp fire, is not much different, and no menace to society, as the guy having a few beers at the legion, VFW or local bar.

RIP Maybin Mayhem 2014.

I've been pretty down on the Bill's and rightly so for many years. That said, I am actually believing Whaley and the whole competition thing. RB's with Brown and Dixon as a 3-4 RB, thats pretty deep. The receivers, no doubt deeper with the addition of Watkins and Williams and the subtraction of Stevie. Even TE though they added no draft picks(which is still a need), but you have to believe a 2nd year Gragg and a 2nd chance Moeaki(sp?) gotta be better than the stiffs behind Chandler. The OL no doubt stronger. The DL should be fine, we ran plently of 4 man fronts last year and DE opposite Mario should get it done by committee. Stronger at LB. Corner's are way deep. Who exactly replaces Byrd should be interesting, maybe Duke has something to offer, as they say sometimes it's the 2nd year guys who make the jump to the next level. It's more that obvious Whaley, who preaches how competition make everyone better, has addressed competition everywhere but QB. It's plain as day that they want to give EJ all the confidence in the world because that's the one position that there's really no competition. and I can see their thinking. Confidence is important to a young QB. I get that, but to say that the Bills hopes of improving rest largely with EJ taking the next step can't be understated.

Im firmly in the camp that Johnny Football's game doesn't translate to the NFL. I'll go old school and say at his best he's Fran Tarkenton, and that crap wont cut in today's NFL. I think he will be a regular on the injury report. The only thing that Cleveland fans might have some hope in is that they have 2 1's next year to right this wrong to move up and get the right guy next year.

That should be below someone's signature line.

Its gotta be OT with Pears near the end of his contract, with Hairston unsure even to play ever again, and bunch of absolute nobodys behind them it has to be a ROT.

Im trying to look on the bright side...forget Hogan, a never will be, Im more excited that TJ will get to explore his true talent as a sandwich artist at Subway.

i dunno, Im a firm believer in this team lacks playmakers and hopefully Watkins is, but i think history has shown this century anytime you get the 9th pick in the first round plus Buffalo's no. 1 next year, and a 4th, thats a pretty good trade by Cleveland.

I really agree with this. Tag him again and do it the following year ..... what would be that total for 2 years compared to what the Bills were offering. Then tell Eugene good luck getting that huge contract when Byrd is close to 30.

This is depressing if he walks, that 2nd round a few years back where we drafted Byrd and Levitre.....well that was wasted on teams going no where. Groundhog day in Buffalo continues.

I dont get how you would offer him 30 million for the first 3 years(10 million per year avg) but wont tag him again for 8.4.

You are absolutely right. There has always been a group of posters on here who will defend anything the Bills do. Modrak had his defenders on here right until the end. It was never his fault---he just sets the board!!! If they cant defend what the Bills are doing then they attack the messenger, in this case Graham.

To me, Superbowl XXV was exactly the opposite of Andre's career. The Giants were going to lay back and punish receivers which they did to Reed in that game, not his finest hour. But through all the seasons Andre had with the Bills is knowing and remembering all the full speed, over the middle, big impact catches he made over the years. He was one tough SOB. Tough catches over the middle and he could bounce off a defender and take it the distance. Safety coming to blow it up....... and he would hang on and take the shot. He made a living over the middle in the pre-defenseless receiver NFL. From Kutztown State to the the hall of fame.....the dude had heart and game.

Im over 50 and I think Bruno and the RHCPs did fine, though I thought they should of ended with Higher Ground instead of the slow number. I'll agree with Curitiba above and go with the Pearl Jam or the Foo Fighters. Katy Perry I could watch, Taylor Swift not so much, that would be a beer run excuse. It is a tough gig to find someone appealing to a wide range of people but who can also entertain.

Its 2 different generations in each conference. The 2 old pocket passers, who can see the field like few others vs the young gun athletic QBs who bring the running element the other 2 dont have. Guess I'll root for Russell Wilson.

In a way the whole season feels anti-climatic. I dont think it would of shocked many people to say before the season started, that the Seahawks and 49ers would be in the NFC championship game and Denver and the Pats in the AFC championship game.

I hope they dont wait til May 11th.

That is spot on.

Im more concerned about the fashion crime of still wearing Zubaz.

Is Duke going to hang 60 or 70 on them?

Did A&M study Wanny' defense last year?
