I case you missed my meaning, many hear were screaming that the Bills didn't try to trade for Cutler and were predicting the Bears got their ticket to the SB with Cutler. Turns out not only were they dead wrong, but the Bears mortgaged their future on a QB that they are benching one year after making that blockbuster trade. If the Bills did that people would be jumping off the Skyway.
Lovie may have gotten to one SB but he ain't going back with Todd flippin' Collins at QB. Meanwhile at least the Bills are on track and we didn't piss away our draft picks like some teams.

No they didn't.
and
No they aren't.

I agree 100%. Even last year watching the Jets he had allowed a handful of catches with huge cushions. A shiit ton of ESPN ballwashing later and and he wants 10 years 160 million.
McGee is just as good.
He didn't get what he wanted.

Whatever. I listen to Sirius NFL Radio nearly every day on my commute to work every day. I have not heard him say that "about 25 other teams" or even close to that. I am not defending him per se. I am just reporting what I heard. Whoever you think the guy may secretly be a fan of, he certainly does not appear to anti Bills as some in the media seem to be.
Let the boys have a good cry, Peter.

gee whiz, sorry if i dont stay here on two bills drive and geek out all day everyday.....
and actually a friend who works on a cruise line sent me an email that had just read it.
and what disturbs me is not what he said about the bills, they all say that crap, i was stating that i dont like to be called a felonious jerk because my team didnt do well again this year, saying you or i would purposefully suckerpunch a jets fan because of his jersey choice. please dont comment until you have read the OP. and if my posts disturb you so much, dont read them.
also never called him a football expert, just an "expert", so if i called him a "sportswriter" would you STFU?
You can stop now.

You gotta read this excerpt from a recent Bill Simmons article on ESPN.
First of all, we did--about 4 days ago, right here on TBD. http://forums.twobillsdrive.com/topic/118447-espns-bill-simmons-on-trent-edwards/
Second, Simmons doesn't offer himself as a football expert, just a commentator.
Third, if reading the popular press's accounts of the Bills disturbs you so easily, I suggest you stop reading.

Too many were in too big a hurry to spin this as a mistake by the front office (one TE! Dooooomed!) to wait and see what would happen next.
Foschi out Martin in. This is the law of conservation of TE talent at work.
Newtonian FO.

Aaron Schobel = Brett Farve, Jr.
Comparing Schobel to Favre is a joke.
Hamlet Schobel has played nine seasons and 128 games----at DE.
Favre has played for 19 years and 285 games (none missed in 17 years) and has taken a million more big hits than Schobel has ever dished out.
They couldn't be more dissimilar in their value. Far better DEs than Schobel have played longer and showed up to preseason every year.

What people are really saying is "sign someone I've heard of or at least with a high Madden score."
PTR
Actually, no, I don't think they are. They want a better O-line.
After the first preseason game, many here were saying "it will be much better once they get their starters (Wood, Green, Bell) back". As it turns out, Wood was the only one worth having back.
Now what?
And what about tight end? This will haunt us.
-
Before the second or third preseason game I figured Roscoe was a goner. And how they have kept McCargo is dumbfounding.
I posted that there was no way they would cut Fitz after the first saturday of practice. Also noted that Brown looked slow and out of shape. Knew he wouldn't make it.
-
They decided to carry two QBs.
He completed 64% of his passes and had a 93.9 rating in preseason. I think it makes a lot of sense to bring him in.
Yet they simply cut him. Why did that make sense?
-
Why and when did everyone north of the Mason-Dixon agree to refer to a college, always, by its nickname? What other school is treated to this?
And how many more southern universities' mascots are named for chicken fights?
-
Who the hell is D. Harris? was he flying under the radar the whole time? I dont even recall his name in training camp reports.
Youboty has been flying under the radar for years now.
He's the luckiest man in the NFL, now that Sorgi's out.

The general consensus of which you speak (which did certainly exist) was utterly disconnected from reality, and it would make less than no sense to have both Brown and Brohm on the PS. It is very normal for a 7th round draft choice to end up on the practice squad, and that makes perfect sense here. There is the risk that someone snatches Brown from waivers, but that is unlikely. It looks as though it will be Edwards, Fitz, and Brohm as 3rd QB, with Brown on the PS.
This is the least surprising development of the preseason.
An easy call, actually.
-
LMAO. That horrid visual made me shoot a chunk of apple outta my nose.
Sorry--it's just that we have entered the realm of what the Fed (Greenspan) once called "irrational exuberance". He was referring to the market just before the bubble burst in '99.
Why can't we just be reasonably hopeful without being desperate? Why does CG have to be a potential COTY? Why even talk like this? We've been this way before. GW started a season 5-3, DJ started one 5-1. Both were going to turn everything around after the last guy. It didn't work out.
Can't we wait a little while?
-
In my humble opinion, they DO keep them both. Ging back to what Gailey himself said a few days in as coach, he likes big, tall, fast receivers...our WR depth chart should look like this:
Evans
Johnson
Parrish
Jackson
Nelson
Hardy
I even think Roosevelt has an outside chance to make the roster as he proved he can get open and catch everything, plus his contributions on ST.
If CG likes 'em tall and fast, Roscoe and Hardy don't make the team.
-
Probably not, but that's because even though it's the same underlying message, it doesn't have the same cache.
True!
-
i dont consider those punks fans.
You may be right, but there were a lot more of them at the first week practice I went to. And they weren't kids. I'm sure it went on at every practice and I don't think they were there just to break balls.
Anyway, that wasn't exactly a Rex Ryan-us against the world (2009 version) moment. I understand he was supporting his team.
Why not just make shirts that say "stop making fun of your Buffalo Bills"? Would you wear that one?
-
I'd be very surprised if we don't pick up at least one Tight End. There's a reason Foschii and that other guy weren't on anyone's 80 man roster as of last week.
A waived TE may be better?
-
Does anyone really want to commemorate the Bills HC berating its own fansfor mocking the team?
-
Aside from everything everyone else has said so far, Marshawn Lynch has had two 1,000 yard years in only three career seasons. He might not be playing well right now, but it is impossible to "imagine him as a undrafted guy" or whatever, because he's already shown NFL potential to be a good running back.
He could be the next Larry Johnson!
-
Coming off an ankle injury, playing in his 2nd preseason game and 1st in three weeks and he wasn't sharp. Duh!
Really. Give the guy a break. It takes time to get up to 3.8 yds per carry speed.
-
Oh I agree with you on this. Just correcting the poster who stated OU hasn't won a bowl game in 10 years. All in all Stoops has done a helluva job at OU. I'd love to see him coach in the pros as I'm certain he would be a success. Perhaps one day he can be lured to Buffalo. We can only hope. LOL. Enjoy your day.
Not what I said.
Stoops isn't fool enough to look for a job in the pros. As it is now, he has his pick of the top athletes in the country, takes them frequently to the championship game, gets his ass beat---and STILL gets a contract extension.
None of those things would happen for him in the NFL.

Halftime review last night ...Sapp on the Int TD.
Not a great play by Drayton... well that's because the Bill's have nothing to lose, so he jumped the route.. or something very close to that.
Many other critique, when they all stand around and joke about how bad we are,with no upside.
One would think we've been 0-16 for ten years when in fact we've been more a .500 team.... don't get the hate.
When are these posts going to end?

You should definitely stay away from his column in that case....
