  1. Yes, but inconsistent beyond belief. Still- his teammates respect him which is a big component. Sanchise on the other hand...this should be fun to watch this week if the back up sparks a three way QB controversy: Tebow, Sanchise or McElroy (or whatever his name is)

     

    Jets drama=never gets old!!! Wonder who is cut at the end of the year. I'm guessing Sanchez, but really do that want a QB tandem of Tebow and McElroy?!?!?!

  2. Sobering to see the schedule for next season besides the AFC East. Home - Atlanta, Baltimore, Cincinnati, Carolina AFC West equal standing (Oakland as of today). Away - Cleveland, Pittsburgh, New Orleans, Tampa Bay, AFC South (Tennessee as of today). At best I can see 8-8 season without substantial infussion of talent at QB, WR and ILB. Depending how the games are scheduled we can be out of playoff talk by midseason.,,,again.

     

    Thanks for posting. Brutal schedule. Quick question: Anyone know if the Bills box office sells tickets to away games. I'm thinking of hitting the ones in CLE and PIT, and perhaps TPA as well.

  3. Trade up for Gino Smith. Then LB, LB, Center somewhere, LB.

     

    Romo and luck are far above average IMO. Qb's not defenses win in today's nfl Brady to the bowl w no defense, Brees, Rogers, Peyton, none of these guys need a d. Rogers sure doesn't

     

    Buffalo has whiffed on many attainable qb options in draft over the years. No interest in McCoy, claussen, kaepernick, wilson,dalton. All of these guys fell and were attainable, not saying any of them necessarily is the answer. (cue colt McCoy jokes) But its time to grab one

     

    You are correct. And as I see none in this draft other than Smith worth taking in the 1st, I think we draft Smith. Perhaps Nassib a bit later. In between, LB's.

  4. I think its time to draft a new Center and switch Wood to another spot on the line. Perhaps he will be less injury prone if he is not in the middle of every play. The problem is, are there any good centers available in the 3rd round? We still need a OLB (Jones) a QB (another Jones!) and then a Center as we still have Wood while he is healthy, we do not have appropriate OLB or QB play even when those guys are healthy.

  5. Note that he said Fitz and Chan are "as safe as they ever were." He never says exactly how safe that is.

     

    PTR

     

    An interesting point. Hopefully that is not safe at all. In San Fran they are upgrading over Smith with a second year QB, in Buffalo, we may ​be stuck with the worst HC/QB combo in the league.

     

    They gave up a 7th.

     

    Whatever they gave up it is too much. Fitz has PROVEN he cannot get the job done. Time to try something else. What do we have to loose: spot in the playoffs: nope. Draft position: not really. If Jackson plays well, we can take a QB later and get OLB in RD1. If Jackson sucks, we know we need a QB first.

  6. Good points. It's particularly frustrating watching teams like the Falcons, Colts, etc. turn things around in such quick order, and watching the Bills spin their wheels. Wilson must find a GM who will hold people accountable. If Chanpatrick is back next year that is a signal that Nix is fine with being mediocre

  7. Well...Not to nitpick your post...But that statement makes it tough...

     

    Smith is a decent athlete, but he's a QB 1st and foremost...QB's who complete 70% of their passes in their final College Season usually do pretty well in the NFL...Smith is at 70.2% so far this year...His worst completion % was in 2010 when he completed 64.8% of his passes...He's thrown 93 TD Passes to only 20 INT's in his WV Career...That is pretty amazing...The Kid can sling it...I'd LOVE to have him in Buffalo... B-)

     

    I'd take Smith, but Landry Jones would be my second choice, esp. if he is available in the 2nd round, allowing us to take Jones, the OLB from GA in the first.

  8. There's been a lot of talk about McClain being lazy and not much of a team player. I google searched his arrest photo and found this http://cdn.bleacherr....jpg?1353114457

     

    Doesn't seem too bothered about being being cuffed and looks like a moron. No thanks

     

    What's he supposed to do, flick off the camera?! He is wearing a nice brooks brothers shirt. Not to many poorly behaved people do that--just an observation. Perhaps he's lazy and not a team player because the RAIDERS are a terrible organization and he wants out!

  9. Thats easy to say that, but having seen how he calls plays, he clearly believes every word he just said as he hangs his hat on Fitz every game and under uses the true talent on this team...the RB's.

     

    Exactly. The proof is his actions. He not only thinks Fitz is the starter, but the "star" of the offense. He is a game manager at best. The RB's need to see the ball more. Everyone but Chan gets this. If the Bills want to sell any tickets this year for the rest of the games they should fire Chan, start the search for next season, and start TJ.

     

    I posted this elsewhere, but said it somewhat different. A "stud" QB isn't going to solve anything. As long as Gailey is calling in the plays from the sideline and the QB isn't allowed to audible to change them, we're going to see the same result. As long as you give one of the best runners in the NFL only 10-15 carries a game (Spiller) in favor of throwing the ball 40 times, we're going to see the same result. It's easy to blame the player, but sometimes you have to dig deeper to see the real problem.

     

    It's not mutually exclusive. They are both the problem. Also, if the Bills had a QB like Ben Rothlesburger or Peyton Manning that would mask a good deal of Chan's terrible 3rd and 1 pass calls as they could scramble or hit an open receiver instead of over/underthrowing them.

  10. .

     

     

     

    He didn't have to say anything.

     

    If they asked him about Fitz he should have said that Fitz needs to improve and is working on hard on at getting better.

     

    Fitz is a big boy he can take it but don't feed us a line of BS. If he really does believe it then we are sunk until these guys are out of here.

     

    You hit it 100%. Plus, Chan is not helping himself retain his job or look good to a future team by making such idiotic comments.

  11. Lindell was hitting from that distance in pre-game warmups. There is no reason to think he can't make it from that distance. Chan, like Jauron, has no balls. Contrast that to Bill O' Brien, who went for it on a 4th and 6 vs. Wisconsin and ended up with a TD. You need to take caculated risks. Either go for it or kick a FG, but don't punt it. WEAk.

  12. He runs the ball less and throws more than Gailey. You guys would hate him here like you hate Gailey. Here in Philly they can't wait until he gets fired and Vick is released.

     

    As I recall a lot of his passes are screens to RB's. I think Spiller would be used much more, perhaps in the way Westbrook was...and Spiller is more talented.

  13. Yes. If the price is right pick him up. He is better than the other DE we have opposite Mario. He could rotate with Moore. He is still a very productive player and has 5.5 sacks so far this season. Get a new DC and this D line could be serious trouble with him, Mario, Anderson coming back, and Moore at the ends, with Kelsay and Dearus in the middle. With the right scheme someone should be free. Draft Jones from GA or Mingo from LSU in RD1, Jones in RD2, and that's a good start to fixing the QB, LB problem. Then draft another LB/QB in round 3 and 4.
