Dennis Green! After losses like last week the press conferences would be on primetime with a massive audience of people waiting for the explosion. What could be better for ratings? If you win, people watch. If you lose, people watch.

I agree 100%. It's the only major sport where you can be an ass and people praise you for it. I agree with this. He knew and then flew, one step ahead of the sheriff. Let somebody else deal with his mess.

Unlike in other major sports, class, sportsmanship and respect for your opponents have no place in the NFL.

No they do not. 453 Pass attempts. 367 Rushing attempts. And consider as well that some of the rushing attempts are scrambles by Fitz when they were trying to pass. And if the point you are trying to make is that Chan Gailey likes to run the ball more than most NFL coaches then you haven't been watching the games. The Bills clearly have a pass to set up the run type offense.

I agree. The unbalanced rule changes in favor of the offense have reduced the quality of play, IMO.

They beat the Bills yesterday, on the road. They have a head coach with a strong track record of success. They have a strong owner. They have a franchise QB candidate. STL will be in the playoffs next season (if not this season). The Bills? Not likely.

George Wilson is the invisible man. No impact.

It didn't take the Rams three years to get getter than the Bills. They did it in one year. And they started from 2-14. It's just an excuse. Show me the baby.

Carrington is to big and slow to play DE in this league. Have you forgotten last season already? Spencer Johnson is a better DE than Carrington... and that's not good.

Why move Carrington just when he's starting to make some plays at DT?

This is my worry as well. Unfortunately, I think it's as much the latter as the former. Nix has been talking about getting a QB since he got here.

I heard the same thing. I suspect that won't happen this year.

I'm truly sorry to hear that.

#1) Offensive players can move as much as they want before the snap as long as they're not moving towards the line of scrimmage. No more false start penalties because some offensive tackle's ear twitched. If they aren't moving forward then no advantage is gained. #2) The zone in which contact with an offensive receiver is allowed is increased to 10 yards. Time to give the DBs a chance again to cover people. #3) Touchbacks from kickoffs start at the 35 yard line. I know that the league is trying to eliminate contact and all but touchbacks are boring. Kick it in play or give up decent field position.

Brooks had at least one pass break up that I remember. And Silva crushed somebody on special teams.

Since when does Belicheat need an excuse to run up the score?

A trade is in the works to send him to the Bills.

Kelsay had better not take any of Moore's snaps. Merriman had a couple of nice plays but the jury's still out on him IMO. I'd play Moore 50% of the time and split the remaining reps on rushing downs between Kelsay and Merriman. When Anderson get's back we'll see how everybody is playing and figure it out from there but honestly Anderson didn't really impress me that much earlier this year.

I have absolutely no problem with Lindell. I actually prefer to kick it high to one corner and invite the opponent to return it. The average opposing starting field position last season was inside the 25 yd line so what's the difference? Yes, you may get one taken back on you but you may also force a turnover. With the extra 5 yards on the kickoff the Bills made a lot of stops inside the 20. And he's is a solid FG kicker.

I think that he's right that the replacement refs were placed under far more scrutiny that the regular officials and that made them look worse than they were. I remember Collinsworth literally analysing every single penalty in one game I watched and any non clear cut call was blamed on incompetence. Frankly, I appreciated their "let them play" attitude. They were inconsistent at times but were getting better. The regular officials make plenty of mistakes in these games too. It would be a shame if the refs are blackballed as he fears. Someone had to officiate these games. I agree with this too.

I think people are getting out of hand with these comparisons to all time great players like Sayers or Sanders. Spiller has a ways to go before he should be considered in their class, especially Sanders. He is definitely a weapon though.

Hairston's strength has been his pass blocking and his run blocking has been shaky, so I wonder about him at RT. Of course his pass blocking has been shaky the last few weeks as well, so maybe he's not a starter at all. I think the Bills should still be looking to upgrade RT if possible.

Dick Jauron knows how to draft them.
