He gets suspended for a year for having a bounty system and Belicheat gets no time off for cheating. There could be a good argument made that what Belicheat did was far worse for the integrity of the game then what Williams did

We have two quarterbacks every year..whats your point? He was saying to draft two, not to just have two. None of your examples were drafted in the same draft class, as was the point in his post.

If Levitre does indeed walk, this team takes a step backwards..again

Why is this thread still going?

Stevie Johnson was drafted in the seventh round...just saying

That was exactly my thougt when I read it.

Is Orakpo on the block?

He would restructure because he knows no other team will pay him what he's getting paid now. And he likes it here. His best bet would be to restructure as opposed to being cut. Even you admit he got way more here than he would have gotten anywhere else. I don't know who he would back up. Maybe Alex Smith, maybe a rookie. I just know he's not going to be the starter here.

The only way Fitz stays with the Bills is if he agrees to restructure his contract and accepts a backup role if need be.

http://bleacherrepor...ounds-shake-out look who the Bills are selecting

You have a red #68 at left guard. Are You assuming that Levitre is definately going to leave? Also, You have yellow for all the linebackers...they should be red. Seriously, only 3 red areas on this roster? You're much to kind.

Ray Lewis was not tried or convicted of " a lot worse". The Pats were not just accused of cheating, they were convicted of cheating. They were actually caught cheating. Big difference.

please people, forgive Tom...look at what he has to put up with.

I did see that article, and while he makes some good points, it smacks of a bitter SU alumni who is upset that Marrone is leaving. And of course he has his work cut out for him. Is there a hire that wouldn't have had his work cut out for him with this organization? This guy seems to be biased in his opinion. He feels Marrone should have stayed and finished what he started.

" Man this was easier when I knew the other team's plays"

How many superbowls have they won since they were caught cheating?

Yet you renewed when Gailey was hired?

You would write a sarcastic response no matter what

What does apples have to do with oranges?

Then the conspiracy must run pretty wide since many different football people really liked this hire. I don't think the Bills would spend so much time trying to convince everyone that they made a good hire. They would let the proof be in the pudding as one might say. If Marrone is a good hire or not, it will become readily apparent soon enough. I could see some of the media trying to undermine the hire because the Bills are not being as forthcoming as they might like.So, yes, there may be a conflict of interest. But the conflict might be with various media people.

You really believe that this hire was nothing more than a marketing ploy? From my view, I see Marrone as a hard working coach, who has paid his dues and turned an absolutely horrible situation in Syracuse into a very respectable program. He has NFL experience. He has a solid repuation and has actually played the game too. Who would have been a better hire? Lovie Smith, who was fired because his offenses in Chicago have absolutley stunk? Maybe they just hired the guy who was most impressive. Maybe they hired the guy who was not a retread, who was not fired, who seems ready to take the next step in a promising career. How extensive a search should the Bills have made? When they found the right man, should they have said, 'we'll get back to you" so that they couldn't be accused as not being extensive enough in their search? Take the chance that some other team would scoop him up? it woud be stupid to find the guy who you think is right, to then wastes time on a fruitless search just for the sake of appearances.Time will tell if this was a good hire or not. I for one am giving them the benefit of doubt based on Marrome's resume.

Why couldn't Hackett take on Bill B? It's not Bill B who beats us most of the time . It's Tom Brady. So I'm more concerned with how Pettine will handle Tom Brady. Look what Bill B was before Tom Brady came along. Not much of a head coach from what I can remember. How did it go in Cleveland? I suspect the same is true for Hackett. If he ends up with a franchise quarterback, he will be considered a very good coach. Also, why would I want Norv Turner as my offensive coordinator? He 's a retread if there ever was one. He did a horrible job in San Diego even with a franchise quarterback. I do admit that Horton is a good defensive coordinator, but why would I be jealous when we got one that may actually be better in Pettine.
