  1. If the Bills had picked Decastro most of you guys would be screaming that it was a horrible pick because he is obviously "injury-prone." But because he was picked by the Steelers, it was likely the fieldturf at the Ralph and it is so sad and unfortunate. WTF?????

     

    :lol: Did you read any of this thread prior to posting this? Folks are saying that DeCastro was injured because he got dominated by Dareus, and the center rolled up onto his leg. Big Ben blaming the field turf is just ridiculous.

  2. Assuming Aaron Williams is the starter opposite Gilmore come week 1, and Ron Brooks has been playing such good football, why wouldn't he start in the nickle over McLovin? Seems like an awful waste of talent to have Brooks only playing in dime packages, especially since he has seemingly out-performed McFumbles thusfar in this pre-season. The only glimpse of good football I have seen from McKelvin was that forced-fumble against the Vikings, and that was after he was torched by his WR for a large gain.

  3. I don't know about fantasy football helmets, but I have found some hilarious fantasy avatars searching through Google images. For instance, in one of my leagues my team name is Brady Gaga. I found a hilarious side profile pic of Marsha Brady with a photo-shopped Justin Bieber haircut. Instant hilarity! I just cut and paste the image location URL into my team profile page.

  4. Nothing about this article implies that they are looking to replace Sheppard in the middle. It only says Morrison will be getting rep's in the middle versus Pittsburgh. I think this is more of an indication that they are not entirely happy with McKillop and/or Carder (I suspect McKillop), and want to get Morrison some experience in case of an injury to Shepp.

  5. dont we think its time to retire the shout song/ its been like 100 years its been around...

     

    I really came to appreciate this song when I went to a Bills-Panthers game in Charlotte a few years ago. Every time Buffalo scored points, the masses of Bills fans in the stadium began singing the shout song. It was almost as if it was being played on the stadium's speakers. Carolina fans looked pissed and puzzled at the same time :lol: It was pretty freakin awesome.

  6. Isn't the greatest olympian in all of history also know to blaze a lil'?

    Bolt has admitted to smoking pot, adding almost every kid growing up in Jamaica has smoked ganja at least once.

    “When you’re a child in Jamaica, you learn how to roll a joint,” he told Germany’s Bild newspaper. “Everyone tried marijuana, including me, but I was really young.”

    Uhhhhhh......not sure but I think 20 years was referring to our own Michael Phelps. He's been known to enjoy an occasional bong ripper here and there.

  7. Why does everyone think Troup is going to the IR? At best and uninjured he is only a depth player. With his nagging injuries and under performance he is low man on the totem pole, so why would the Bills waste a spot, PS, roster, IR, etc on him?

     

    IR buys him training camp next year, what is he going to do next year? He's not going to beat out Dareus or K Williams, so again he is just a depth player at best. So again, why would the Bills waste time, team spot and salary on somebody who can be easily replaced from the FA market. I don't understand the IR logic, makes no sense.

     

    Fair point...

     

    Because he was a recent high draft pick I think many Bills fans think that the organization will give the guy every opportunity to demonstrate his potential. Flawed logic it seems. In a similar situation, the Bengals recently waived WR Jordan Shipley. I was surprised when it happened, but when I looked at their roster it made perfect sense to me.

  8. His lack of fluidity is concerning. He doesn't seem to have cornerback hips, nor quick twitch muscle movement. Safety might be his future, but if so, he'd be depth right now (rather than a starter at CB)...

     

    I recall hearing reports (when he was drafted) about the perceived lack of fluidity in his hips, but they hasn't been glaringly obvious to me (again I do not claim to be an expert). With regard to his lack of "quick twitch muscle movement," I think you just pulled that out of your a**. He is a big, fast, physical cornerback who has pretty good closing speed when his receiver does get a step on him. I could see him eventually converting to safety, but for now I think he has the potential to be a very good cornerback in this league. Only time will tell.

     

    Mckelvin rules you'll be with me by week 6 on this. Real pass rush means cb's can finally make plays. I like the Gilmore brooks mckelvin package. Sub in Williams some. It's a long game.

     

    I highly doubt it Ryan, but I commend your loyalty to Mumbles McLovin.
