we were 2-3 (.400) without him
we were 4-6 (.400) with him
the difference between Byrd and any combination of A. Williams/Searcy/Leonard is NOT woth his $9 mil / yr asking price.
fyi....the 2013 Fitzpatrick(on a new team) is playing better than the 2013 EJ Manuel (so sad).
2013 Passer rating:
#40- Ryan Fitzpatrick
#50 - Thad Lewis
#51 - EJ Manuel
EJ MANUEL will be lucky to crack the Top 20. he will NEVER be a Franchise QB.
Vick's days as a starter in this league are OVER.
2013 Passer rating:
#32- Michael Vick
#40- Ryan Fitzpatrick

#51 - EJ Manuel
our QB situation is laughable. we need a FRANCHISE QB
the bills are only noticeably better on defense (Pro Bowlers kyle williams, mario & byrd. with Dareus and kiko likely alternates).
on offense the passing game got worse (which is hard to do). 2012 Fitzpatrick played BETTER than 2013 EJ Manuel (that is sad).
the Bills are still in need of a Franchise QB in 2014. waiting til 2015 is a mistake.

keep the current divisions.
play everyone in your division twice (6 games)
play everyone else in your conference once (12 games).
8 teams per conference make the playoffs (4 division winners and the next 4 best records).
first round of Playoffs all games vs other conference ( #1 AFC vs #8 NFC, #2 AFC vs #7 NFC, #3 AFC vs #6 NFC, etc......)
i love it except for one big twist......
once you get to the playoffs.....in the first round, the top seed in one conference plays the lowest seed in the other conference.
i would prefer 8 teams from each conference make the playoffs.
GET RID OF DIVISIONS : i hate playing mia, nyj & ne twice
keep 2 conferences, play everyone in your conference ONCE. (i know, thats only 15 games, i'm still thinking)
how about expand the season to 31 weeks and play everybody ONCE !!
