The Bills sincerely want to keep Lynch- He is the only RB that can block- Jackson cannot. Even if McIntyre could block, his presence on the field would tip the defense because he is not considered an actual offensive running threat. The reason the Bills need a blocking RB is that the "Pistol" formation (which Gailey pioneered and employed at KC because his QB was a third stringer) shows a HB and FB in the formation just in front of the QB. The FB is a designated pass blocker. Lynch is the only back on the team that could fulfill the blocking assignments of the Pistol.

It helps to picture sports broadcaster Dick Enberg making a play call referring to the Bill's line- "Lots of penetration by the Bill's "Concrete Pythons" on that play!" "The Bill's "Stone Ponies" have kept Edwards off the ground all day!"

Absolutely agree. Another example is poor roster management. If this article about Parrish is any indication, the sky is the limit for this team under Gailey. http://www.buffalobills.com/news/article-3...19-187e704d88ff

This article about Roscoe Parrish offers a fair amount of insight about how Gailey will bring out the best in his players. It is quite an encouraging peek at the future. http://www.buffalobills.com/news/article-3...19-187e704d88ff

I'm not so sure it's about how many games Gailey and George "Superman" Edwards will add to the win column as much as it is about how many Jauron and his staff LOST for the team. Subtract at least (3) wins because of their poor teaching, game planning and game management. A halfway competent staff, (yes, Gailey and Edwards) gains +3 just by being competent vs. previous years. Of course this is considering all else being equal, e.g. strength of schedule, etc, which are in fact not equal.

negative nancy? where have i heard that before...hmmmm

Ask the Patriot's fans if they give a rat's hide about their NFL team having a regional location and name. The Niagara Falls move makes sense on many levels including enhancing the regional efforts. There is a spot west of the Lewiston hydro reservoir that would be perfect- at an intersection of three highways- one leading to Buffalo, one leading to Ontario and one leading to Rochester. The Niagara Buffalo Bills, not bad.

check it out, George Edwards is superman. Not really, but the article sounds good anyway! Edwards could well be "the man" for the Bills D http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/bills/14856

Getting back to the article- the end results and impact is that Demetrius Bell was thrown to the wolves as starting LT with only two years playing experience as an offensive lineman! On a team where the starting QB has injury and concussion issues! That is complete mind blowing absurdity! The author (and so do I) really wants Bell to succeed in spite of the circumstances.

Agreed. Not a rip on Brandon at all. Just that without a GM with knowledge and authority, the Bills seemed to protect self interests and create conflicts of interest rather than field the best players

I read an article that said brandon did not have any authority about players and that john guy pushed his influence on the coaches, like dick jauron. this example from an article: http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/bills/14777 said that guy pushed players to play that he signed to cover his back. because when brandon was "GM" he had no pull and was like a bad substitute teacher a real gm with football knowledge and power would have stoipped that kind of garbage

dude i read that brandon wimped out and that guy forced walker on jauron.

There's a different article about him at RF365. To bad the writer is stoned if he thinks Bell will ever be any good. http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/bills/14777

Frazier is the real deal. Tony Dungee would hire him in a heartbeat. My only concern is who do the Bills pick for OC?

If the Jets beat the Colts I may have to give up watching football for a while.

The Cowboys were totally out matched by the talent of the Vikings on both sides of the ball, especially defense. If Jones fires Wade he is a bigger *** than he already was.

Rusty's track record for preventing injury in camp is not that great- the Bears were plagued with one thing or another the past three years. Last year it was hamstrings. His strength is nutrition and proper strength and body size / proportions for a given position. Rusty is great at that.

Aha! That's Dick's plan for next year! He's sick of going 0 for in the division against the 3-4 defense and might as well "join them". PS Maybin is awesome off the line, the quickest burst in the draft. He's a keeper.

Tonight's game has three Bear's defensive secondary starters missing in action as well as all pro DT Tommie Harris. This is a chance to take some risks and develop the passing offense. Oh yeah, winning the game might not be so bad either.

AT this rate OJ would not have missed a single game because he was found not guilty. The robbery thing, maybe a 2 gamer at best...

Focusing on the Patriots is very keen. After all, if a team doesn't target the best in class, who do they target, and why- when the goal has less value? Although it's impossible to predict the future with absolute certainty, the odds favor high consideration of past results. As a Bills fan, I will be pleasantly surprised for an improved showing over the final matchup of last year, and a truly competititive game December 20th.

Steely- I don't agree man. Sometimes teams in a rut need a spark. I agree with the author- they should go for it just this one time- not with recklessness, but play the game like it was meant to be played!
