Kyle Williams hasn't shown the ability to play a 2 gap NT to this point in his career and to try and use him there would be a total waste of his ability. He's no where near big enough and it would negate his quickness and explosion off the ball, which is one of his best traits. Like Dareus, he's best as a 3 or 1 technique DT. If the Bills played a 1 gap 3-4 like Denver then it might work out, but that's not Rex's system. First of all, both Charles and Bryant are career backups. Secondly they can't play 5t, so unless you're going to play a 5-2 they can't be DEs. They are going to have to play on the edge some of the time in a true 3-4 defense. Thirdly, the fact that Dareus played DE in college doesn't mean he can do it in the NFL and even if maybe he can I highly doubt he will be as effective as he is playing DT. If the Bills seriously want to play a 2-gap system then they really need all new DL except for maybe Dareus. So, what was the strength of the team 2 years ago must now be totally dismantled. This obviously implies that they should play mostly 1-gap schemes but they tried that this season and it bombed so we'll see.

It's amazing that there has been no new news on this for a week but this thread keeps on rolling along... approaching 100 pages pf speculation, supposition and innuendo.

So I guess you underrated him too.

I wonder what would ever possess Patriot fans to think that a Bills reject would be a big time player on a Super Bowl team. If Chandler was any good he would still be in Buffalo. It's not like the Bills are overflowing with talent at TE.

No way Bryant and Charles can play DE. Dareus has a chance, but realistically he's a pro-bowl caliber player as as a 1 and 3 technique DT so moving him to DE is a huge risk. Wynn is a career backup. That's not a very good situation at DE.

It's funny- 2 years ago you couldn't find a hole in the defensive personnel. Maybe a slight upgrade here or there. Now, with the same players, there are holes everywhere. Need NT, DE, ILB, S, OLB... Awesome. Another 2 or 3 year rebuilding project.

14-2?

Doubt he can make the transition and be effective, especially at this point in his career.

Overrated: Darryl Talley. Good LB but not all that. Tough not to look good playing next to Bruce Smith. Could have used a tackle or two from the Bills "heart and soul" in the loss to the Giants in XXV- 0 tackles. Underrated: Pat Williams. No one appreciated him until he was gone.

Why bother. It sounds like everyone is good as long as the toilets work and the lines to the urinals aren't bad. If all else fails they can always bring back the basin sinks so that people can use them as overflow urinals again.

You can always just pee directly into the floor drains. The bathrooms still have those.

Yeah. And what's with these new fangled urinals and individual seats? What was wrong with the trough and bench seating they used to have? They worked fine.

I would be happy to pay my share so that I can feel good taking my kids to a game. Unfortunately, it appears that I am in the minority. That's fine. As I said, it's democracy. But from now on I don't want to any more complaining from Bills fans about owners being "cheap" because the fans are obviously as cheap as anyone.

I agree with all of this. It's about "fit". Schwarz's scheme was a perfect fit given the players he had in Buffalo and Rex's was terrible. Rex was successful in NY and Baltimore when he had time to acquire and mold the players for his scheme. That may be the case here as well but it will take 2 or 3 years.

I guess playing their games in a 1970s era stadium with few amenities and an unsympathetic family environment is what everyone wants so that's what they get. It's cheap. Democracy.

+1. But was this after 2am or at 1:59am?

You spoke to them? What were they saying?

The players in Miami did not side with incognito. Many players who were interviewed in the report said that Incognito acted inappropriately and that it was obvious that he was offensive to Martin. You don't like the Wells report. Fine. Issue your report with your sources and we can compare credibility,

If Tony Dungy is in the hall and Don Coryell is not then that's a crime.

Coryell Favre Jacoby Owens Warner The rest wait.

Did you read the Wells report? It does not portray Incognito as a victim. He was the prime instigator. To say that he is a "scapegoat" now is revisionist history. What are you basing this on? Is it because he is now a Buffalo Bill?

This was the major key. The Bills ST was the worst in NFL history and Wilson wanted the ST coach replaced, but he was a friend of Wade so he refused. So Wilson canned him.

He defied the owner when Ralph asked that he fire the coach of the worst special teams units in NFL history. I think people are being a little too nostalgic about Phillips. There's a reason that he washed out as a head coach. Compared with Rex, I'd say they're about equal. Wade has a better overall record but is 1-5 in the post season. Ryan has a 4-2 post season record. Honestly, neither one looks like a top NFL head coach to me.

Every Sully post or tweet elicits threads from TBD in outrage. Now there is a post dreaming about what he might say if the Bills win a championship. Yeah, I'd say he pretty much owns the fans. They appear to hang on his every word.

Yes it is.
