Saw his brother David on the VT bowl game the other day, he is a Senior, I hope we draft him . . . imagine, two WANGS on the same team

It's the annual Bill Cowher season: Fan bases around the NFL annually speculate and dream of bringing the the chin in as their next head coach. But, like the Grinch that he is, he teases, he wines and dines, and he goes back to the desk job where he gets work about 20 days year and collect millions. While fans are left holding the keyboard and dreaming of maybe next year. When the entire process will start all over again.

So our first pick will be the 48th?

Well, there will now be an ad nauseam string of threads and posts about the need for a better QB. But look at the teams listed, at least 10 are probably in worse QB shape than the Bills, and all 10—and a few more—will be working hard to improve their QB situation as well. My Thoughts: Yes! If we can make a move to get better there, please do. But the likelihood of that is not high (for numbers sake, I would say less than a 10% chance we add an improvement at QB in the off-season). We'll probably draft some kind of project, we'll take a look at some veteran also-rans, and in the end decide the Kyle Orton is still the best we can do for now. But, there is one place where some real work can be done to improve the this team for 9 to 11 wins, and yes, you guest it, get two more decent interior offensive lineman (guards or center, Wood can move if needed). Even one really good new person might due, if Richardson, Kujo, or C. Williams actually come along and can really contribute next year. But in the end, improvement there will make your running game better, which in turn can make your passing game better, etc., etc. TBD will be littered with posters suffering from QB agnosia, but as long as the real executives at the real TBD don't suffer from that, this team can vault over everyone on that list. Happy New Year , and "may the odds be ever in your our favor" for next years play-off run.

SAM in 2015! Get it done Doug & Doug.

I am totally convinced Spiller has a vision problem. How many times did it seem like he had no ability to see to the left or right, where a big hole was, and just keep running right straight ahead into the back of one of his inept lineman? Nice kid, but I think his vision and football IQ will always limit him. Then again, Chan somehow found a way to use him in both the running and passing game. Something the current regime couldn't figure out how to do. I wish him well on a team other than any AFC east team.

Spiller . . . was he really here this year? I for one, will officially label him a bust of a top 10 draft pick Spikes . . . like him, but will not make economic sense with Kiko coming back C Williams . . . Didn't do much, and hopefully the rookies from this year develop. Hopefully! And probably a free agent or draft pick will be added. Hopefully!

I HAVE A BETTER TRADE OPTION FOR CLEVELAND: We'll take Johnny Football off your hands, and you give us back that first round pick, and we'll call it even.

In the end, it was wash . . . there are also at least two games we could have (should have) lost: Detroit, Minnesota. Yes, certainly a better QB would help; but really, the achilles heel of this team the entire season was the Offensive Line. Everything else being the same, and just average play from the online, and this team is in the play-offs.

and how the $%$#@#$ does Derek Carr score 27 points against this team ???????

Really? I don't think they needed Orton's help, they were doing just fine at sucking long before he took over. The one thing that EJ could do that Orton can;t is run and escape the constant pressure he was getting, "Obviously" Orton is terrible at that.

So does Fitz, I say we go back to him!

The article just confirms the eye-ball test we have seen all year. But I still can't getaway from the fact this was a decent group in previous years, and that not one of the new people has truly been an upgrade. So what does that tell us? Either the coaching or scheme isn't good, period. Yes, keep looking for better players via the draft or free agency. But more importantly, new coaching.

Yeah, Flutie was overhyped. All he did was win, and you know how we hate that around here. Wow, get a clue.

Disappointed. I would really like to see EJ again.

Those were evenly matched teams . . . especially after the worst coaching decision in the history of professional football! Moreover, it started a curse that still hovers over this franchise. Actually, as bad as the offense was, I find this argument does't line up with the facts: Only 13 of the 32 NFL team scored more points than the Bills this past weekend, it was 3 points higher than the season average, and They scores less than 24 points in 9 of their 15 games this year. As frustrating as it is, the offense did what it has done all year = just enough to give us a chance to win. If you want to place the blame somewhere, how about on a Defense that was lack-luster, and allowed one of the worst teams in the league to out up one of its highest point totals of the year? How about a defense that couldn't make the plays when it was most needed? Let's be honest here, it was the Defense, not the Offense, that lost this game for the Bills!

Urban on offense and Rex coaching up the D !!!

Didn Didn't they try to address it with three lineman in the last draft?

The curse of Flutie lives on

wow, that was just ugly ….. remember Pittsburgh, what year was it? 2003? …. the curse of Flutie lives on.

Why are we paying a guy to kickoff that can't consistently get it through the endzone?
