Bad weather is a great equalizer for bad teams.

Some "expert" picks are in: CBS (all picks in): With spread (TB -2.5) as well as without the spread: 7 pick the Bucs and 1 (Katzowitz who happens to have the best season record ) for the Bills ESPN (not all picks are in yet): 6 pick the Bucs and 1 (Schefter) for the Bills

Personally I like it when players stick up for each other. Did Choice have any incentives in his contract he was getting close to I wonder?

Ugggggg. That statement makes me crazy. Everyone on this team, and every NFL main team, knows how to win. Their entire lives they have been winning at football. From pee-wee through college. They clearly already KNOW how to win. What they need is enough talent on the field and on the sidelines (coaching) to win, period. Nothing personal, but the headshrinker horse#$@! drives me a little crazy (a short drive admittedly ).

Maybe there is someone on the practice squad they want to have a look at during this early preseason? Or maybe someone who is currently unemployed? It is surprising though. I would have thought they could have found better deadwood than him.

One of the most interesting things about this place is the diversity of opinions. My opinion of the NFL could not be further from yours. Particularly in recent history with all the TV dead time the games have become almost tedious to me. Watching them on a delay with no commercials makes it very tolerable. But we watched the last game live because it was a 4:00 start and wow did that drag on. The NFL ranks as one of the lowest on my scale. I would miss the Bills if they moved for the first season or so anyway, and I would miss what has become our family "tradition" of dinner-with-the Bills Sundays, but I wouldn't miss anything else about tackle football.

I disagree about laying down. The Bills have players who want contracts with other teams next year or soon, and others who if the Bills cut them their football career is over. So if they have half a brain they won't lay down. "Winning culture" along with "Intangibles" are the two phrases used by losers, fans of losers, and talking heads that need something to say to take up air time. If/when the Bills start to become relevant again those phrases will be used less. Until then I'm afraid we are stuck.

I certainly hope it is.

http://www.firstdownlaser.com/ The only possible reason they have not switched to such a system is it gives the officials one more way they can screw the Bills every week!

If you are really interested use the nice search feature of this forum. This has been discussed ad nauseam. I prefer not to feed the trolls.

If the Bills trade Spiller they will get at least a 2nd for him. There are teams that could make good use of a scat-back.

Dancing With The Stars ... and I applaud you fine sir/madam for not knowing! I can only wish I did not!

What a refreshing new outlook that I have never heard before! DWTS?

Fixed.

He is in a large market that LOVES their team. The court date will be postponed until after their season ends and/or he will be given some kind of community service slap on the wrist.

This is true, but also helped by the situation he is in. I mean Seattle actually has a NFL caliber team after all. Blind homerism just makes people hate.

I don't know what to think about this game. At least it is a 1:00 start so i can record it and watch in 75 minutes instead of 3 hours.

You were right the first time as bolded above. I don't fall into that trap for the Bills for some reason, but I do sometimes for the Sabres. Seems to happen more to me if I am at the game versus watching on TV. Maybe because on TV you can see multiple slow motion replays instead of getting swept up in the emotion of the homer crowd.

The Bills have sucked for as long as my kids have been alive and they are still Bills fans. Almost certainly because of me. But they expect the Bills to suck every season, and why wouldn't they. One of my sons came home the other day with a 49'ers t-shirt though, so who knows. My oldest has a bit of a foul mouth at times. I call him on it when I hear it, but it emerged during the fumbles yesterday and I could not bring myself to scold him then

I don't think this generally happens right after the hire. Even for Gailey, who had no history at all of being a winner as a HC, most of the talk here was how the Bills did great and how firing Gailey was Jerrahs biggest mistake and so on. If you eliminate #2 I think you are spot on though.

I only watch the Bills now and only because they are my local team. If they moved I would probably all but stop watching football altogether.

That's pretty impressive. Get him on the sideline!

SJ13 is what he is by this point in his career. A decent slot receiver throughout most of the game, but chokes on the big ones. No reason for a point of emphasis on him.

If your argument is that yesterdays game was basically which turd in the toilet bowl floated the longest then OK. But how does that relate to the Bills playing, in your words, an "excellent" game? Essentially, how can you play an excellent game against a 2-9 team and lose?

Buffalo Bills Playoff Chances Lost to Atlanta 31-34, playoff odds down 2.2 to 1.1% 4-8-0 .333 So what you are saying is .. there's a chance!
