This is clearly the case, and I for one am actually intrigued to see how Kolb responds after seeing what Manuel and Tuel did in game 1.

My favorite part was on the first drive of the game when they introduced the starting lineups, they only introduced the Colts offense. No lie. I had to look up the Bills roster online and check the numbers to see who was playing for Buffalo. I think that after a few plays they may have introduced the Bills, but it wasn't until well into the Colt's opening drive.

Thanks and nice work. Given how shaky the Bills OL has been I wonder what the Bills run defense is really like. I'll be interested to see how they do vs the Vikings who will be a good test. Also, why do you think that Branch isn't getting first team reps?

I agree with this. Marrone has not committed to keeping 3 QBs, but Tuel is playing so well that they may have to. And there's no way that they go into the season with 2 rookie QBs as the only options.

Maybe Easley moves up to second team but honestly I didn't really see much with the offense that warranted changes in the depth chart.

Butler gets reps in lieu of Brooks Blatnick gets some second team reps.

Not impressed with the DL today. Colts got pretty good push in the running game and on interior penetration on passing downs. I'm no rocket scientist but I guarantee that teams are going to run it at the Bills this season: 1) The Bills stunk vs the run last season 2) Pettine's Jets stunk vs the run last season 3) The Bills don't have a true run stuffing interior lineman. Dareus, the closest thing, is still trying to play up to his rookie season. 4) The linebackers, led by Alonzo, are pretty small. Dareus must play big this season otherwise this is going to be a problem.

Glenn to LG would make a lot of sense. He has been struggling at LT during camp, the LGs are stinking and Glenn was projected as a LG coming out of college. The only problem is that the LT prospects behind Glenn are terrible.

It's too bad. I still believe that he could've been a big time player under different circumstances.

Tips on "To Go" orders, tips for people who make sandwiches at the deli, tips at coffee houses (where the coffee is 20x the cost of a cup you brew yourself). What's going on here? I think that we should all put out "TIPS" jars in our workplace to try and make a little extra money. It seems that everyone deserves a tip.

Better trade him now so that the Bills at least get a 5th or 6th round draft pick for him.

That is an outrage! Go be a fan of someone else if you aren't a koolaid drinker! You must lead a miserable life! etc.

There is only one champion every season. Everyone else has failed. That's the bottom line in the NFL. Anyone who is ok just winning and making the playoffs once in a while is basically a loser. The reason I think it stinks that the Bills haven't even made the playoffs in forever is that they are SO far away from being a champion that it's almost unimaginable at this point.

Show me the baby?

I don't know where this notion of Jackson as a power runner came from. Jackson's best asset, IMO, is his vision and his ability to find running space. I think it's actually more valuable that power. Don't get me wrong, FJ is still a very good RB but I still think that he's probably on his way out.

That formation sounds like one where they Bills can't run the ball and can't pick up a blitz. Given his age, recent injuries and limited role behind CJ, Jackson will likely be gone soon. He's done well here but I don't really see much of a role for him unless Spiller get's hurt frankly.

I really hope that this logic proves to be correct but I have a feeling that the Bills aren't going to sign these guys either. It smells of the Sabres with the Briere or Drury thing. The Bills can't sign Levitre because guard's not that important, he wants to much and they need the money to sign Byrd, Spiller and Wood, then... The Bills can't sign Byrd because safety's not that important, he wants to much and they need the money to sign Spiller, Wood and others... What happens when Spiller and Wood want to be the highest paid at their positions? Let them go too? Is center any more important a position than guard? How important is a platooned RB in todays pass happy NFL? I can see the threads already.

Kolb is as much the Bill's starter as Sanchez is for the Jets. I don't know if anyone has been following the Jets QB battle but it sounds to me like Geno Smith is the favorite.

Stop playing this game. That thing was hilarious. They really ought to bring Battle of the Network Stars back.

I'm going to give him the benefit of the doubt on this. I think that he is only giving each man what he thinks they can handle and will factor degree of difficulty that into the equation when determining who to start. If Marrone is really dealing so duplicitously with his players as you imply then he is going to lose a lot of respect in the locker room.

It's your imagination.

London Fletcher was a warrior and the heart and soul of the defense. Nick Barnett didn't impress me as being anywhere near his class.

What did you see in regards to Brown and Legursky at LG? At the post practice press conference Marrone basically threw both of them under the bus. Good think they don't have Levitre anymore.

The difference is that in hockey the coach tells you that they're not going to tell you because they don't want to give other teams valuable intelligence or have them target a specific injury. They don't say "Yeah I heard that he got hurt. He hasn't been at practice the last couple of days but I don't know what's up. I'm just waiting for the doctor to call and let me know. You'll be the first to find out when I know something"

I think that they will regret developing an antagonistic relationship with the press. It won't make their job any easier. Of course if they win then it won't matter.
