Butch Byrd is the only Bill defender on the pro football reference all 60's team 3x first team all pro. Billy Shaw is in the HOF deservedly, And Ron McDole was also on that team.

I think it was a quagmire or mudhole back in those days. But you get the picture. The other thing that was amazing was that Lamonica [who was the QB that day, Kemp was hurt] was also the PUNTER, and kicked for a 46 yard average. Cookie had 5TD's that day.

Original Bills Fan, I was 11 when the team was born. Used to remember going to Saturday night games on a school bus at the Rock Pile, School kids got in for a buck. Proud to have been there when Cookie set the pro football rushing record in a "mosh pit" in 1963. Field was a quagmire, and he would hit the line and carry defenders 5 yards until they brought him down by gang tackling.

Stratton wasn't even the best defensive player on the Bills, they had guys named Sestak, McDole, and Dunaway that made it possible for Stratton to operate the way he did. Sestak is the second best defensive player in Bills history after Bruce, Injuries have kept him out of the HOF.

His sixty time is 6.67, same as goodwin, who no one says is slow off the line. 6.67 would have been 5th in this year's indoor nationals.

6th round #199. And the Bills helped by taking on Bledsoe's salary.

And if the ball gets to Kolby in stride, I doubt he will be caught from behind like Sammy was last year on the 84 yarder. Could this mean Woods goes to the slot, where I think he would be very effective?

At least from all-athletics, Listenbee is faster than Goodwin. Same 60 m indoor time 6.67, Listenbee has run a 10.03 wind aided 100 + a 20.6 200. Goodwin's best times are 100 m 10.24 wa, 200 21.24 wa. In college the rub was he had to wait for the ball, not sure that will be the case with TT. Sounds like he's very fast when he gets to top speed, his 60 to 100 time is close to Justin Gatlin, currently world #1.

In 2014 he was rated the second fastest player in CFB by the NFL. In 2015 he was rated #1. His standing long jump was 129 inches vs. Goodwin at 132, but Listenbee is 200#. Could be an interesting option on ST with that kind of size and speed.

Best in the City

If he thinks Gronk and Martellus Bennett are tough, it appears Megatron is now joining the Pats in search of a ring.

Jim Brown 6-2 Eric Dickerson 6-3 OJ SImpson 6-1 John Riggins 6-2 Karlos WIlliams 6-1

Jaws is from Lackawanna, what do you expect...

Plus no blimp coverage at that location

The arches at AT&T Stadium are 292 feet above the playing field. If LA has a similar design, that's a pretty big object to be in a flight path if a heavily loaded plane were to lose an engine on takeoff.

Gerry Philbin was the anchor of the defense that held Baltimore and Unitas to 7 points, and made Joe Willie Namath famous.

Patricia has been trained as an engineer, this would fit right into hiring DePodesta and going to an Analytics approach.

Leo - showing he can play safety.

Spurs [my folks retired in San Antonio], fortunate to have been there for Bills in '64 & '65, SUNY Potsdam [D-III] '81 & '86 [undefeated].

I like Spikes too, but I think he may have to serve a suspension once he's signed under the conduct policy. He also doesn't play ST so that could factor into it.

Grego still has Nashville ties I think.

RIP - Always loved the way he played the game. Saw him at my HS sports banquet.

What's really scary is that the second 20 of his 40 [1.82 seconds] is faster than Goodwin [1.86 secs], so once he gets a head of steam, that train is going 22.5mph. e=mc^2, and this 243M has great c^2.

The 21.52 mph is also what Watkins ran for the last 20 of his 40 at the combine. Goodwin [if healthy] did the last 20 at the combine in 23.52 mph. Goodwin [2.53] & Watkins [2.52] had the same 20 time, but Goodwin would be 5 feet ahead at the end of 40. Unfortunately right now they are both in the training room.

Has anyone noticed that except for height, Tyrod has better Combine measurables than Mariota in every category, faster, more explosive, and faster times in the agility drills. He's also built a little more solidly.
