I agree with this to a degree. The Bills brought Florence in to be the nickel/slot corner and now he's basically their #1 cover guy. That's too much for him. If they can get two starters ahead of him then he can play where he was originally envisioned and would be solid there, IMO. The Bills D has lots of guys playing out of position.

Spiller played well. I don't see how you can deny that. It's good to see. When Jackson follows S Johnson out the door at the end of next season, Spilller will be the man until his contract runs out.

Because they stink. Johnson was a better DT than Stroud, is a better DE than Carrington and is a better OLB than Moats or Batten. That's pretty good for a backup. People picking on him have run out of stuff to talk about.

I don't think this group is as strong as you think. Troup and Carrington are not contributing / did not contribute much. Kelsay and Johnson are really rotational quality players. When fully healthy, they only have 3 legit full time starters in Dareus, Williams and Edwards (and Edwards is marginal). They don't have a true NT or a strong pass rushing end so they can't really play a 3-4 or a 4-3 effectively, as you can see on Sundays. I haven't lost all hope that Carrington and/or Troup may still develop into something decent but really the Bills probably need to be looking for two more solid linemen, including one full time starter.

Roscoe is done with Buffalo. He will catch on with someone else through for at or near the NFL minimum and play (on and off injured) for a year or two before retiring.

I haven't seen to many flashes from him. He might develop onto a decent player but he isn't one right now. If the Bills are to continue with a 3-4 they need a serious linebacker talent infusion, outside and inside.

This. None of the top tier FAs anyway. They make pick up an average starter or some role players after the top guys are gone.

YES. What else are they going to do with the $20m that they have under the salary cap? What are they saving it for? The last article I read said that the two sides were approximately $2m apart. Maybe they can give Brad Smith's salary to Johnson so that the money would be better spent. BTW- I find it funny that you are quoting Sullivan for support when you continually bash him.

So Stevie walks. They re-signed Pears though.

I buy the injury excuse for offense somewhat, although I think that lack of confidence and regression by the QB are also major factors. The defense was bad before the injuries however. Forget about statistics. Anyone who watches the games can see that they stink.

All the Bills D needs is some time. The guys they have will become a dominant NFL unit soon.

Yay. A marginal starter is signed to an extension. Good for depth I guess.

That was the worst football game I ever watched. The worst Bills loss was v Dallas in the SB- 9 turnovers.

Out of curiosity, what did you see in Searcy's play that leads to you say that he looked very good? He seems to make very few plays on the ball to me.

I'm going to have to disagree with you here. Dareus and Williams are solid. Edwards is passable. Beyond them there is bupkis. Carrington has been getting owned vs the run and can't seem to generate a pass rush (supposedly his forte). Troup hasn't shown much of anything and now he need "minor surgery on his spine". Heard is improving but still very raw. Not a solid rotation, I don't think. Bills need a real pass rushing RDE. And don't tell me that the pass rush will all come from one OLB. Unless that man is Lawrence Taylor, one man can not be the entire pass rush. The DL must contribute.

In which dictionary?

Matt Millen approves of this approach.

proof reading is dead.

If there is a change, it's going to be Wannstadt. Nothing else makes any sense. Wanny didn't come back to the NFL to be a LB coach. Why did Gailey bring him here here if he wasn't trusted and respected? I'm still not convinced that Edwards will be axed but if he is it will be Wannstadt.

Do you really want the "entire planet" to watch another Bills-Cowboys or Bills-Miami game? Maybe it's better that the Bills aren't televised. They aren't ready for prime time.

Pretty funny video. "If they really wanted to punish her they would've made her stay until the end of the game." Seriously though, these are the kinds of incidents that prevent people from taking their kids to the games.

"get dragged down into the mud"??? What are you talking about? jw STARTED this thread for the noble cause of trying to get revenge. He wasn't "dragged" into it.

Spiller looked decent today. He had some decent runs and good pass protection. He may develop into a good change of pace back.

I like it. Especially the top 3.
