  1. Honestly at this point unless we are in the midst of a "playoff run" and could really use him I don't care if he plays. Let the Coaches and Whaley see what the other safeties on the roster can do, let them get experience that way they can figure out how they want to proceed in the offseason. I believe the ship on Byrd signing long term has sailed.....
  2. It was fun watching brady get so pissed out there last night
  3. According to Chris Brown Leonhard is in the bldg. taking a physical and is expected to sign
  4. Anyone out there in NYC heading to McFaddens? My Wife and I are heading there to watch....
  5. I agree with everyone else to see him play a full season, look like an NFL starter and improve by seasons end. I'd also like to see him step up in clutch situations and win a game or two when the games on the line......
  6. Cant wait to see Manuel in some live action in the preseason games even if its only a series or two....
  7. He sounded like a F**king moron in his phone interview withr Buffalo media
  8. I loved the bit when Jim said he'd only spent an hour or hour and a half with Marrone a couple months ago. He said after speaking with him "I wanted to put my pads back on." He said that his enthusiasm was pretty amazing (my words his inference) and that he'd spoken with current players and they feel the same. He also mentioned Hackett and his enthusiasm and how he said "he never imagined he'd ever be back sitting in his office again as OC." Who knows how it will play out. I have always liked the selection of Marrone as HC. Maybe Gailey was so beaten last year (remembering his demeanor and the look on his face in postgame/weekly pressers) that Marrone just seems 180. But I think its more than just buzz I think there's something to it. Anyway listening to Jim and Steve has been pretty cool thus far.......
  9. Larry will be sorely missed. I loved his columns. Prayers to his Family and friends.
  10. I think it would be a great pickup if they can get it done. It certainly would lend credence to their wait and see approach. He had a great season last year, seems like he'd be a good fit for what Pettine wants to do. And he has knowledge of the other division opponents to boot.....
  11. Just wondering if anyone caught Coach Marrone on the NFL network tonight. I missed it and was wondering if he had anything to say that is of interest or that we might not have heard before. Thank you!
  12. I agree. I was Awful at doing this 10 years ago. Perhaps I grew up or perhaps I've just come to accept that we've become perrenial losers. However, I remain (guardedly) optmistic at the beginning of each season. I look forward to the games on Sunday. I dont get nuts like I used to when we lose and it doesnt ruin my week like it used to. Its 3 hours a week I watch and enjoy being surrounded by good friends drinking beer and hopefully the "movie" ends the way I hope. Sometimes its a horror show (like the pats/49ers beat downs this lastseason). Sometimes its a feel good movie (pats and raiders wins 2011). I was so/so on Marrone's hiring. The more I thought about it I love it. Its different than anything we've done in the last 20 years. Things have changed since the Glory years and it looks like the Bills are finally changing too. If it doesnt work out at least its not a repeat of the same exact 12 years (up and coming Coordinator or retread) at least they tried something different.
  13. I agree. Out of all the names floated that we are looking at he'd be my first choice.
  14. Its not the team mario seems like a real jackass
  15. I was in Dublin, Ireland the last two wins and back at my usual Bills Backers bar yesterday.....Oh and I parked my car in a spot I dont normally park in. I can park my car in its usual spot but going back to Dublin isnt an option right now LOl....
  16. That's so awful. If I remember correctly from interviews etc pre and post draft Marcell is very very close and protective of his siblings. I hope he takes the time he needs to spend with his family and deal with this tragedy.
  17. I agree w PTR- the media - espn nfl etc were all saying how great our D was going to be and how great the Mario signing was and now they feel like idiots. It was one game. I was there I saw the ugliness first hand and granted Mario did nothing against a UDFA rookie but Im not ready to call his signing a "bust" yet. And even if he ends up doing nothing I dont fault the front office for signing him. We had no pass rush. They go out and sign the absolute best pass rusher available. If we hadnt signed him we'd all be complaining that the Bills are cheap and didnt sign the guy we needed. As far as Fitz goes....I want to like him but if he keeps playing like he has the last 9 games (not counting preseason) we arent going to win many games with him behind the center......
  18. I stopped going to the Bills jets game at the Meadowlands 7 years ago after ending up in a fight w a guy I attempted to walk away from and then breaking up fights in the parking lot between NYCBBB members and jets fans. Went to the Bills Giants game last year (Giants fans are totally different than jets fans) and had a great time. Decided to go to the jets game this year because it was the opener. I was skeptical but fortunately had no problems. We parked in lot 26 by the Bills tailgate and it was a lot of fun......well that is till the Bills took the field......
  19. GQ: What's the one thing that pisses you off the most? What sets you off? Mario Williams: Fans get me going. The worst thing to do is talk junk to me before I'm about to go against your quarterback. Whenever I get trash talked by fans at an away game, that's the best motivation. Because I know if I get the opportunity to get to the quarterback, it's going to be even worse now. If there's a fan telling me I'm garbage and my team sucks, you're talking directly to me. And I'm going to take it out directly on your quarterback. I LOVE IT!
  20. I wish I could tell you what I know about him. Great Ref, scumbag otherwise.
