After year 30x, game 100x of raging on Mondays, I have chosen to use my positive attitude in life and finally apply it to the Bills. Here goes, and hopefully this helps someone else! 1) All of the good franchises have success because of coach/system tenure and stability, solid QB play, timely defensive play down the stretch 2) Rex has a defensive system that works, however he does not have the players necessary to run it yet (really he runs a 3-4, and we don't have the personnel) He and the GM need time to assemble the pieces. 3) Roman is a competent OC, with the ability to get plenty out of average QBs. He needs another year to work with Tyrod, (who may or may not be the answer) and another year of assembling players for his system 4) We are not going to the playoffs this year. Too sloppy, too messy- not happening. Lets look forward and hope that year 2 in the system, with 2 drafts and free agent classes to assemble the proper talent, proves to be the difference. In short- give us time! You saw the Browns game last night and those graphics- (how many coaches, GMs and coordinators they have been through in the last few years) we don't want that! There is no guarantee Rex will take us to the promised land, but this regime needs some time, as in years, to try and I am looking forward to seeing it work!

I watched this fight- Fury looks like a goof in the ring. He had some bizarre antics and a weird fighting style (no power) that may have frustrated Klitchko, but the champ looked worn down and out of it and fought a terrible fight. Sadly, still nothing to see in the Heavyweight division:(

I expect a big fat load of multiple TE and Blount tonight- set us up for the Brady pick passes

Tried to call, but I heard some odd noises on the other end and had the odd feeling that maybe the call was being recorded....

I am thinking doing so would dramatically reduce the game package pricing they get from the Networks. Football is the top show everyone watches and the Networks need those Playoff Sundays (and Saturdays!)

This is silly. All the comments out of OBD this week are about how Johnson has mastered the playbook. We aren't going to outright cut Manuel for Weeden. Move along nothing to see here

No thanks- we have a punchers chance to win. We have huge games coming up against 3 teams right behind us (KC, Hou NYJ) Every game counts huge

I am having a hard time thinking of successful QBs drafted in the 20s, beside Rogers. You either have to go up top 10 or get lucky and hit on an Andy Dalton or Carr type guy in a later round

Sorry to say, but that was for sure a sack. Suh had 2 hands on Taylor and he wasn't going anywhere- that little flip shouldn't have counted and the whistle should have blown. For Pete's sake, Suh was looking at the ref to blow the whistle while he had him- he didn't want to slam him down and risk a penalty.

I remember Preston Brown saying on the Murph show that they keep adding new defenses and lineups to learn each week. He wasn't complaining mind, you. It just seems to reinforce a lot of the missed assignments and confused play we are watching. Hopefully in a few weeks the defense is mastered and our players execute it. Otherwise it may have to be simplified like last year- it is possible that the rest of the league has caught up with Rex's system and he need to change it

I still can't figure it out! Sat in my chair, same Watkins Jersey. Wife daughter and son in their spots. Had my same drink. Hung the Bills flags. Had my yellow ref flag and red challenge flags in my pockets.

Save the weird and funny chants until the game is in hand please! I am already having nightmares about Dion Lewis saying "you know my name now Rex?" after the game

Heath did perfectly pick the Cardinals every game last year, and this year picked the Bills to be 11-5

I don't understand the question of why TT is ranked so much lower than the two rookie first rounders. In lieu of actually NFL game experience, the main criteria to evaluate them is probably their college careers and physical skills (i.e. height). In this case, TT, a former late round pick gets slotted behind the first rounders until he proves otherwise. Also, it's certainly more desirable to have a first round rookie aged 21/22 than a 5th year backup aged 26, as your unknown starter all things being equal. Just more potential upside.

This is what good teams do- they move vets at the end of their careers out and bring in younger, cheaper draft picks to take their spots. It sucks because it's the most popular Bill (and one less Jersey of a current player I own) but hopefully we are getting on track

Just watched the first 10 minutes of Inside the NFL and it was all about this crap with the Patriots. Turn on the NFL network and it's Willie Mcginnist defending them. Turn on ESPN and it's Bruschi walking on water. Every damn Total Access all summer had a reporter in New York yacking about this. Every. Single. Show. I am tired of hearing about these cheating punks and hope we beat them silly this year

If Karlos can perform as a rookie +/- 15% if what Fred could have done this year than we will be set. Lots of money tied up at the RB position- way more than most teams so the depth needs to work.

All I know is I won't be able to sleep Saturday night!

I've been telling all my Arizona homies that I think Rex is resting our studs and that he has zero interest in the preseason. Not sure if it's true or I'm choking on the koolaid! (again)

The negatives- (bad press, questions for everyone, possible lawsuit, front page bs) far outweigh the positives of signing a special teams player. Love me some Rex, but a grownup should have stepped in and not allowed him to buy this toy.

Thanks for the update! Should sticky these daily update threads to the top every day to skip over the junk threads!

I have a whole section of shame in my closet,including: Lawyer Milloy Willis Mcgahee Travis Henry and the #21 Spliller Jersey-- all in the ugly blue

Preach Brother!

Must mean that Manning told them he is done, and maybe Foxey doesn't want to rebuild. Can't blame the Broncos- they had a window and took a shot

Agreed- not sure Russ wouldn't want a better one to
