Stephen Hill - no takers. Not even the Browns.
billsfan89 replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I think some team will end up picking him up once injuries hit. Surprised the Browns didn't pick him up. Teams will get fooled by his athleticism and think they can be the one to turn it around. -
PB, Kiko, and Brandham might form a good LB core going forward. Spikes is a solid guy to have this year with Kiko out due to injury. But I am excited to see the young LB's in action. Sink or swim season for Brandham.

For whatever reason I am not excited for this upcoming season. I am not really confident in this coaching staff, I am not really confident in EJ, and I am not sure how confident I am in the defense if the offense doesn't put up a lot of points. Maybe its just years of terrible results wearing my optimism down. While I am hoping for the best my mind tells me its not going to be a great season.

If Peyton Were Our Quarterback...
billsfan89 replied to The Voice of Truth's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
You could say that about a lot of teams that have struggled to find QB's. QB is such an important position it impacts every single aspect of the game, and great ones are so hard to find. Even a good one like Tony Romo is kind of hard to find. It sucks the team hasn't found a QB but EJ could be it, EJ is young and QB's do take time to develop sometimes. -
C.J. Spiller's Value in Fantasy Football
billsfan89 replied to johnwalter's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I am keeping an eye on Spiller, but I Would steer clear of him in the first three rounds even in a PPR league. 4th or 5th round would be a good slot to take him if you ask me. I think his value is that of a number 2 running back, but the guy is boom or bust for sure. -
Where did this DT Cohen come from
billsfan89 replied to John from Riverside's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Dude needs to get some snaps with the starters before anyone gets too excited. Still better to play good against the B team than to stink against them. -
If he ends up moving to guard and is really good there, then its a pick well spent still. This pre-season process is in its very early stages.
-
There has to be some progress made, 8-8 should be enough to keep his job. But a 6-10 season puts him on the bubble. It would be hard to retain a coach after back to back 6 win seasons or worse, esp when significant resources were put into the teams.

Nicks released from the Bucs.
billsfan89 replied to mellaman101's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
The dude is retiring isn't he? The guy was guaranteed 6 million from the Bucs this season. But he wasn't able to play, so they settled with him on the money so he could retire. -
CJ Spiller contract (Jamaal charles deal)
billsfan89 replied to switz1610's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
CJ will be gone after this season. As much as I don't want to lose the guy I just think the guy is using this season as a tryout for a bigger contract. Dude will probably end up with a 4 million dollar a year deal with a small guarantee in year one of that deal. -
Here's how we save the Bills if they're sold to JBJ
billsfan89 replied to ThurmasThoman's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
You don't have to get violent or throw things onto the field (You don't think if things got so extreme the NFL wouldn't just buyout the lease) but wearing black to every home game and chants about the team moving things along those lines would work great. Basically you want to have the moral high ground while drawing attention and making the NFL look bad. If you threw things onto the field, had people running onto the field, and other stuff to that degree then you make the town seem like savages and the NFL has the moral high ground. Basically you want to shame the NFL and make it look as bad as possible without it being a violent or volatile situation. -
They are going to suspend him for the year at least. Sucks for the Browns, they really don't have any WR's outside of him. Browns offense isn't going to be very good this year.

Olbermann Bills/Soccer insult
billsfan89 replied to PromoTheRobot's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
In his defense, soccer is terrible. -
Chemistry is rarely instant, let the guys go into training camp and pre-season first.
-
Dixon, I have seen enough of Jeff Tuel to know that he stinks and at best is a training camp practice squad QB type.
-
I really liked the way Chan used CJ. Getting him the ball on screens and out the backfield on passes, and then handing it off to him a lot out of shotgun situations. With CJ you need to get him in space so that his speed is much more effective (Obviously any player is better in space but if you spread the field with him, it makes it more likely you can get him to have those big plays). Trying to run him up the middle will hopefully work better if the O-line and passing game come together more.

Thad was more impressive than I thought last year
billsfan89 replied to FireChan's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Thad deserved to have a good chance to make the roster. Guy played well considering he got thrown into the fire a lot. I still would have liked the team have brought in a veteran to compete for the backup spot. I really don't like seeing Tuel on the roster the guy is garbage. He filled in after not being on the team for the off-season and being hurt after getting a couple of starts. He wasn't good but he was far from tragic which isn't a ringing endorsement but if you look at the circumstances surrounding his play it makes it look better in that context. -

Fitzpatrick named Texans Starting QB
billsfan89 replied to 26CornerBlitz's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
They will probably be 7-9, Fitz is mediocre but you could do a lot worse (Although it would be better to give the playing time to a rookie who could develop). The Texans defense with Clowney and Watt will be good and they have a good running game. Not surprising that they named Fitz the starter after they didn't draft a QB early, basically the only guy on the roster with significant starting experience. -
Bills could use depth in that area, wouldn't mind bringing him in but I doubt he would want to come to Buffalo but stranger things have happened.

Can we trust Roger Goodell?
billsfan89 replied to first_and_ten's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Don't trust Goodell. -
Marshawn considering retirement?
billsfan89 replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Its a ploy to get one last big deal. Granted I think its a really good idea to get out of the game if you saved your money and still have your health. But its also hard to do so when you are 28 and probably have a couple of years left in the tank to make some serious money. I bet Lynch is thinking that he wants to play but only if the price is right. -
Personally I think Soccer stinks, for me its like they took everything cool about hockey and made it suck. But outside of my personal beliefs there are many reasons why Americans will never get into soccer outside of the world cup. The MLS is a third tier league and the top leagues in the world play in Europe or some other country far outside the United States time zones. Americans have access to the best Basketball, Baseball, and Hockey leagues in the world along with the NFL which is Americas past time. Why would you watch a third tier soccer league in the MLS or the best leagues during weird hours, when you have so many other sports that have the best leagues in so many other sports? Even if Americans liked soccer (Which I don't think they would) the conditions to foster that just aren't there.
