    Kyle Williams .... this guy needs a nickname

    I thought tugboat was pretty good. All of the suggestions make for an interesting thread :thumbsup:

     

    I'm very surprised K-Dub is actually supported by a few people. It sounds like a kid named Kevin wants to make a hip-hop song, to me anyway.

     

    However, it's possible I could be missing the point. Is there some meaning behind "Dub?" Or is it just some random syllable added after the first letter of his first name?

    Chargers to L.A.? Concerns Really Mounting in SD

    LA and SD are both bad sports towns. The chargers moving would be the least painful, after jacksonville. While I'd rather everyone just remain at their current locations, it wouldn't be a big deal for the chargers to move. While there would be an initial outcry from the sd fans, I doubt half of SD's citizens would notice/care, and the chargers would ultimately retain their fans even in LA.

     

    Lived out here in southern california for almost 20 years. Just to reiterate I'd prefer all 32 teams to stay put.

    with the #2 pick in the 2011 draft the buffalo bills pick?

    1. Adrian Clayborn, DE

     

    Have you watched him play? I don't have faith in this guy at all. He seems like he's high on draft boards, but from all the film i've seen on him I don't understand it. That being said, if we take him and he plays well, I'll happily eat crow

     

    Truth is, I think we're looking at a #5 or 6 pick. We're likely to win at least a 2-3 more games. We need to spend all of our picks on BIG guys, linemen and linebackers ONLY. Stock the cupboards and lets get some beef in town.

    Give Fitzpatrick an entire offseason as the starter and he will flourish.

     

    I'm not advocating for any draft strategy, just claiming that with an offseason free of a QB competition, fitzy would play even better imo. Maybe he would even focus on improving his accuracy. Who knows.

    So splain' this to me.

    It isn't just the 0-8 record, but even Ray Charles can see this team is worse on the field.

     

    Interesting. I was just going to say the team actually looks better than any bills team over the last few years, and it's funny how the team in 0-8. Fitzpatrick is the primary reason we have an offense. I can only imagine how miserable we would look with Edwards :sick: .

     

    These last 4 losses have been tough, but we are knocking on the door consistently. We play tough game in and game out, that's the difference I see. I'm more optimistic now than I was at any point during the Jauron era, yet here we are at 0 and 8.

     

    EDIT:

    I see an 0-8 record with pretty much the same team for the last 3 years.

     

    Really? The same team of the last three years? I haven't seen an offense like this in Buffalo in who knows how long

    The first paragraph of that article sums up what I've seen every time I've had the chance to see him play:

     

    "Pass Rush/Closing ability/Moves and counter moves: A good college pass rusher, Clayborn would struggle as a right defensive end in the NFL. He lacks the speed, secondary moves and agility to make it as a pass rusher. As a 3-4 defensive end, Clayborn will be asked to stop the run and, depending on the scheme, create pressure on the pocket. Does not show an ability to dip his shoulder or roll his hips to turn the corner- this must be learned. Has yet to develop a secondary move and relies purely on strength as a college player. As a college defensive end he is stronger than most tackles- this will not be the case in the NFL."

     

    I worry about this guy. Man I want an impact player in this year's draft, I really like what I'm seeing from Nick Fairley

    Looking ahead to next year, now that the season is shot

    Anyone who thinks that George Edwards has a clue, doesn't.

    There is no game plan for opponents. He does the same thing week after week. He never puts eight in the box to force teams to pass. The LB's are always well off the line of scrimmage.

    He'll never send seven on the pass rush. I mean NEVER. You have to mix it up in this league. He won't take chances to force a big play.

    One interception from a team that had 29 last year? And you think that's all on the players? C'mon.

    The fastest way to improve this team in the offseason and I 'll say it everyday.is bring in a quality def. coordinator (John Fox is my boy). If we don't, we can look forward to a bottom 3 defense again next year.
