17 - 2 baby !!!

can you master a playbook in 4 weeks ? i say they dumb it down while detroit knocks the rust off orton. more sophisticated ? no. same playbook, hopefully Orton can go through his reads/progressions faster than EJ. otherwise....we're doooomed.

EJ's career is far from over. pick yourself up, dust yourself off and get back to work. your just one hit away from getting back in there. get ready !!

In their contracts that run until 2022, the NFL requires broadcast networks to black out a game if a team does not sell out tickets at least 72 hours before the game starts. And the NFL plans to keep the contract in place. http://www.usatoday.com/story/money/business/2014/09/30/fcc-eliminates-nfl-blackout-rules/16480131/

"NFL teams have made significant efforts in recent years to minimize blackouts," the NFL responded in a statement Tuesday. "The NFL is the only sports league that televises every one of its games on free, over-the-air television. The FCC's decision will not change that commitment for the foreseeable future." http://espn.go.com/nfl/story/_/id/11617725/fcc-votes-drop-sports-blackouts-nfl-says-change

what a freak ..... size, strength, speed, body fat....plays the run so well. wish they would turn him loose to get sacks more often.

FCC unanimously dumps blackout rule http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2014/09/30/fcc-unanimously-dumps-blackout-rule/ It doesn't mean the blackout rule has died; the NFL and broadcast networks can agree to abide by its terms. Today's decision means only that the NFL can't insist on network blackouts via an FCC policy that previously gave the NFL the ability to pull the plug.

where threads go to die.

comparing Orton to EJ of course.

is it really a surprise that a GM & Coach would strongly disagree over a player or two ? look at the opinions of TBD posters just on EJ. those guys have their livelihoods and millions of dollars at stake.

TWITTER: Thoughts Which I Think They Enjoy Reading

"They want you to cook the dinner at least they should let you shop for the groceries." - Bill Parcells. since I didn't shop for the groceries, i'll cook what I want - Doug Marrone.

sign stealing...

the only thing that prevents Doug & Doug from getting fired at seasons end is making the playoffs. it's painfully obvious they will not make the playoffs with EJ. there are plenty of other reasons the Doug's get fired besides mishandling the QB position: #1- QB situation - stayed ALL-IN with EJ, Thad & Tuel. brought in Orton so late missed all of camp and preseason. #2- Traded away next years #1 draft pick. mortgaged the future. #3- Traded away Stevie Johnson yet carry $10 million in salary cap DEAD MONEY. #4- replaced the 70th ranked LG with the 65th ranked LG. #5- stood pat at TE by resigning a mediocre receiving TE Chandler who can't block. #6- got totally played by Jairus Byrd's agent. lost your ALL-Pro player for nothing in return. #7- questionable 2nd round 2014 pick. #8- Coaching - team undisciplined as evidenced by penalties. #9- Coaching - clock and timeout mismanagement. #10- Coaching - OL can't pick up stunts. absent the playoffs, the two dougs are GONE after the season. Russ survives for one more year then Kim takes over.

i'll take it... and mention that the NFC South & AFC South have less wins than the AFC East.

#1- OL work on picking up stunts. #2- passes thrown in 3 seconds or less.

That's because it's a hollow threat. Apart from the inevitable attack on the broadcast antitrust exemption that would result if games leave free TV, the NFL needs free TV; nothing else would allow the NFL to generate massive live TV audiences. Last week, the NFL renewed a deal with Sky Sports that ensures an enhanced presence of the game on free TV in England, since the NFL realizes that free TV means that more people will watch the games & and in turn that more people will become fans of the sport. http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2014/09/30/fcc-is-expected-to-dump-blackout-rule-today/

Senator Richard Blumenthal (D-Conn.) and U.S. Representative Brian Higgins (D-N.Y.) will conduct a conference call in advance of the vote. Blumental, Higgins, and Senator John McCain (R-Ariz.) introduced legislation in 2013 that would strip the NFL of its broadcast antitrust exemption unless the blackout rule is dumped. At 10:30 a.m. ET on Tuesday, the FCC will vote on scuttling the blackout rule, which prevents games from being televised in the home team’s market if the non-premium tickets aren’t fully sold within 72 hours of kickoff. http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2014/09/30/fcc-is-expected-to-dump-blackout-rule-today/

Marrone's future will be decided after the season.....by the new GM.

If the Playoffs started today..... the Bills are the 4th seed in AFC: http://www.nfl.com/playoffs/playoff-picture

the players spoke volumes when they elected captains.
