Too many tough road games, although the always seem tough regardless of the opponent, and time is needed to get the O line going. 5 - 11.

Cut the guy some slack. If it so obvious to everyone, how come the Bills Front Office neglected the O line for years and spent millions on guys like Kelsay and Schobel. Yes, it is preseason, but if guys are getting physically whipped one on one then it is something to be very concerned about. Gameplanning and scheming only goes so far. The Bills got to four SBs not only because of Kelly, Reed, B. Smith, and T. Thomas but because of a strong O line that could dominate and because they consistently put pressure on the opposing QB with Smith, Hansen, Wright, Biscuit, and Talley. Bill Polian please come back!!!

I think this is about as close as you can get at this point. I'm a little concerned at WR. Johnson and Hardy have been injured as well as Owens. I think Jenkins might make it because of injuries and they like him on Special Teams. TE is a mess. No one clearly sticks out yet although Nelson may later in the season. Schouman will probably make the team even though I don't think he is all that good. The Bills have some tough calls for a change.

The front office also likes to spend an inordinate amount of money on mediocre players like Kelsay!

Is that you Jerry Springer??

With one exception. The roster had a whole lot more talent. Three Hall of Fame players and a Hall of Fame coach. I'm going to guess that DJ doesn't get into to the HOF.

I think a year from now you will get what you want. Maybin whenever he signs will replace one. They will replace the other two with guys already on the roster, draft, or Free agency.

There only one thing left to do - turn off the TV!

but I'm worth millions!!!

I went to the Sunday night game two years ago when Brady and the Pats just killed the Bills. I can't remember the score, something like 56-10. It was demoralizing in so many ways. To me talent difference between the teams hasn't changed that much. Owens makes the Bills a better team but the Bills will have to play a perfect or near perfect game to have any chance. Even then you have DJ who inexplicably is still the HC!

I agree with what you said. I would also factor in the huge contract Peters would have received had he stayed with the Bills. Had the Bills signed Peters to a huge deal I don't think they would have signed T.O. as well. IMO

I already gave it to you. The poster doesn't have to be attacked nor do the people that respond to the posting. Lynch is undeniably the # 1 rb but that doesn't mean he should sit out the preseason because of his 3 game suspension.

I think he's on the bubble maybe done. He hasn't been the same since his injury and the offseason arrest does not help.

Dude he needs to get into playing shape. As you know there is a big difference between being in shape and football shape. He is not going to be that sharp that first week or two that he gets back. Not letting him play in the preseason would only compound the problem.

Dude your post has awoken every swinging d--k out there. Almost like a Roscoe Parrish punt return for a TD!

What Ray Lewis and Leonard Little did led to Goodell coming up with the Personal Conduct Policy IMO. Brett Favre was hurting himself not others so I don't think he is in the same boat. Stallworth was just suspended for the 2009 season. I think people are upset with Vick because they don't think he deserves to be in the league. He has his "second" chance by serving his sentence but people want him to go away and do something else. Perhaps people view playing in the NFL as a privelege as well as possessing a certain level of skill. I have dogs myself and I have mixed feelings on the whole issue. I'm glad the Bills did not sign him.

I wish Dick Jauron was more like all of the other former Head Coaches for the Bills - former!

What do think of replacing Madden with Collinsworth? I didn't care too much for him as a WR for the Bengals but I tend to like him as an announcer. He has opinions and isn't afraid to speak his mind unlike most announcers.

I hope it is not that bad but I'm afraid it won't be any better than 6 - 10. After what happened last year, I'm not sure what it takes to get DJ fired. The O-line is going to take awhile for it to click and the D-line needs an infusion of talent.

Can anyone remember a free agent who visited the Bills and left without a contract, only to sign with the Bills a few days later? In recent years, it seems that all the free agents who sign with the Bills sign the day of their visit.

I think 7-9 is optimistic for 2009. Jacksonville, Houston, Cleveland, New Orleans, Tampa Bay, Jets (twice) all wins for the Bills? Interesting.

Amen. The Bills are really rolling the dice. If the start of their schedule is tough which is quite possible, they may be looking at an 0-2, 0-3, 0-4 start maybe worse. You think the fans are annoyed add an 0-4 start to the 09 season! Yikes!

Money probably was the main reason. Also, wasn't DJ the headcoach in Detroit while Kitna was the QB? Maybe that had something to do with it as well.

Yes. He was on the Bills roster and broke his leg in a preseason game. Never played for the Bills in a regular season game. I believe he was Levy's first free agent signing as the GM.
