I'm going to do what I do every year. I'll read what you guys do and think I should do that. Then I'll never bother calling them and end up paying full price. It's been working.
You are right. I knew the guy who was the Comissioner of the long defunct North American Soccer League. He once told me that it takes three generations of people playing the sport to popularize it as a spectator sport. We are just now reaching that point.
I think that all of the Bills decisions should be based on polls on this site. No scouting dept. No analytics, think of the savings.
That being said, to paraphrase, I don't care what you post just post something. I get bored at this time of year.
I'm optimistic about Schwartz, but while reading that article, the first thing that came to mind was, fumbles may be random, but only the Bills fumble twice on game winning drives in the same game.
I felt that Hackett was limiting Manuel not the other way around. Manuel appeared to me to be so worried about turn overs that he would check down, so worried about ball placement that he would aim the ball. Manuel's best drives came in crunch time. He would stop thinking and play instictivly, way less checking down no more aiming the ball. This tendency started in the first preseason game.
In this day and age I find it depressing that you can't watch games. You can't even watch replays of games online? I can't imagine going back to the days when I would watch a game I didn't care about just to see what the score was in the Bills game, or driving all over the place to find a bar showing the Bills.
To answer your question last years offense was pretty predictable. I'm not sure what the plan was last year. Why not get young guys like Hackett and Manual all the help you can? Did they want to limit the number of voices in a Manuals ear? They have rogognized that what they were doing wasn't working. I think they knew it last year, which is why Hackett was down on the field for the last part of the season. If this offense does not produce this year Hackett will be gone.
What exactly are the five chances Sullivan is referring too?
1) Late for meeting.
2) Late for meeting.
3) Arrested for possession of illegal substance.
4) Arrested for drag racing.
What's number five? Mourning the loss of his brother?
Dareus' behavior smacks of immaturity not a pattern of criminal behavior. So for this they should cut him?
