  1. Does anyone have stats on special teams effect on win-loss outcome? If we had one of our top 5 special teams units, would that have added another win or two?

     

    The defense was clearly better than in years past and the offense was about on par, but the special teams significantly dropped, where our record was about the same. I gotta think this held us back from taking a step up.

  2. This draft is actually going to line up perfect for the Bills needs. There's top QB, WR, OL and OLBs that should be sitting there.

     

    Possibly available at 9:

     

    QB - Carr, Bortles

    WR - Watkins

    OLB - Mack, possibly Carr

    OT - Lewan

     

    Agree on Benjamin - that kid from FSU is a stud. I think he goes 1st round.

  3. remember these recent comments from Chris Brown:

     

    CB: As I said on the radio earlier this week, there are roster changes on every NFL team every year, but I foresee changes here in Buffalo that will surprise some people in the offseason. This first year, Marrone has been very thorough in making assessments of the players on this roster and whether he can win with them his way.

    If he feels he cannot they will not be here long term. And let me be clear in saying what can earn a player a ticket out of here sooner rather than later goes far beyond athletic ability. Work ethic, commitment to team and professionalism are all qualities that are coveted by Marrone and his staff too.

    In fact in some cases lacking in one of those three areas might lead to a player dismissal (cut or traded) even if said player has the ability to help them win.

    Da’Rick Rogers should’ve served as a prime example at the beginning of the season. A ton of ability, but no professionalism or commitment to team.

    If players on this roster didn’t get that message then, they may end up learning the hard way.

    I'm leaning towards the Bills using this marketing strategy for 2014... They have already tee-d it up. We cut/traded _____ player because he wasn't a "team" guy. Gives us an excuse to shed some big contracts and not re-sign guys.

     

    I think our fanbase will buy it for one year, but I will not be one of them.

  4. That 6-3 cleveland game was farrrrrr worse. Trust me I was there.

     

    I was there too - the backward punt, muffed returns - yuk but mostly just 3 and outs. But the game last night was 15 yard overthrows, nobody knew where to go, bad penalities, ugly turnovers. It was like watching both teams practice for the first time as a unit. Both were terrible no doubt.

  5. Pick this kid up - let him run the scout team and make him our #2 at the end of the year. This offense is built on a mobile QB, and Tuel isn't that. Tuel would be over his head if thrown into an NFL game right now. He looked good in some of the preseason but he's not ready. For Freeman it's not a bad landing spot - young and up-incoming team, unproven QB, offense built for his strength, opportunity to slide into a starting role upon injury or EJ failure.
