  1. I believe the overall sentiment on Gailey was very negative when a poster on here leaked it before the media. Most of the people thought the guy was nuts when he posted it. The fact that he lost his first 8 games in a row did not help either.

     

    I think you are correct. I had to convince myself into liking the hire. After interviewing Cower, etc. getting a no-name in Galley was a disappointment. A good OC, not a good HC. Also, I think it was "Nevergiveup" who leaked it. Anyone know what happened to the most mysterious and accurate poster in TBD history?!?!

  2. I hear people like the Rock Pile seats. They sold out pretty quick as I recall. I've sat in quite a few areas, I try to get as close to the field as possible for the money I'm willing to spend, or up higher if further from the middle of the field. (better view).

     

    I'm in Section 137 , Row 39 and it is right in front of the luxury boxes so there is no one behind us dropping beers, etc and I think the seats in front of me are for owned by the Bills and given out to friends of players, etc. We are at the end of the row next to the Handicapped platform so there is plenty of legroom to get out quick if you want to beat the crowd to the bathroom, etc. Although it is on the 10 yd line, the jumbotron is right to the left and you can easily see any of the plays toward the far end of the stadium. All in all - Price was $1700 for the three seats, season tix. I know the Club Seats are much more but I only get to three games a year and either give the rest of mine to friends as business expense or sell them on StubHub.

     

    Sounds like some pretty sweet seats. !

  3. Appreciate you but i had read the information wrong & over looked some things . Hey it ain't the first time & it sure won't be the last !!! But it has generated a bunch of conversation . After our spat i went back & read over every thing & dude was right i was talking out the wrong side of my face. Lesson learned ...

     

    you said you might be talking out of the side of your face. So what, its a blog, it got conversation started, no reason for someone to attack you like that. People found some more correct numbers. Don't be afraid to post again. Haters need a hobby, some of them unfortuniatly end up here.

  4. But you saw what Fitz is. he will not take you to the next level. he just wont. He has had more than enough time to prove it.

    And bringing him back is not a good idea either because guys in the locker room will still see him as the starter. You are putting your new QB in a bad spot. No thanks. I want to cut Fitz because he is not the answer. i do not care if it saves .50. It is time to move on for the Bills and for him

     

    I agree. We don't need the potential drama of having Fitz around. Not that he would cause any, but if we bring in a starter and he has a bad game, some players will grumble about putting Fitz back in. Until he has a bad game, then they'll want the other guy again, etc.

  5.  

     

    Why don't you confirm your facts before posting nonsense? That's something of a rhetorical question, but take the time to do basic research before posting b.s.

     

    do you have anything valid to add, or just trolling around. He admitted he was not sure about the Fitz situation, which is complex, which is why teams have "salary cap" experts. Calm down.

     

    If the website is accurate, these are the cap moves that you make that don't really affect the team on the field:

     

    Player Cap Savings

    Kelsay $4.1 Million

    McGee 2.1

    G. Wilson 3.37

    Brad Smith 2.75

     

    Total: $12.3 million

     

    That gives you $32+ million to work with. Draft choices will probably be net $6-77 million.

     

    Fitz is only $450k but probably is done too.

     

    Re-signing Levitre and Byrd will probably cost $12-14 million against the cap, so that leaves you about $12-14 million for free agents, enough to bring in 3 solid players, probably no superstars.

     

    a solid OLB would be nice. or perhaps urlacker for one year. Also need a solid DB. Seems like they are in decent shape if they resign Byrd and Levitre and pickup a QB, LB, and CB in the draft that can start on day one. A daunting draft task, but they got a day one starter on OL and CB last year.

  6. "The Offseason-Our season starts now!" Lol!

     

    I'm not even joking. I have enjoyed the offseason much more than the regular season for quite some time now.

     

    I can't wait until the regular season is more enjoyable. We're way overdue.

     

    Very true. Speculating about coaching hires, FA acquisitions etc. have, unfortuniatly, all been better than the regular season. Signing Mario Williams was the most excited I was during last offseason/season.

  7. If we take Nassib because he's "comfortable" with the system and the coaches worked with him in college, that is a PISS poor reason for taking him. I want no part of any QBs coming out of this year's draft.

     

    so we should draft no QB's. Nassib will be a good-great pro.

     

    What is this based on? Why don't we see how he grades out before we make stupid and thoughtless assumptions. I've yet to hear about this guy going in the first round. Do you really think we would take him just because the coach is familiar with him. Come on man. Weak thread.

     

    What else is there to do at this time of year besides making thoughtless assumptions. Really, none of us know how any player drafted will turn out. I wanted Wilson last year=win. I wanted Colt McCoy also=bad. Speculation, guessing, it's all fun.

     

    The thought of a new coach being so "comfortable" he is hiring his best buddy and the qb he coached in college is scary. This is a Buffalo weakness in that we hire coaches who are given free rein to stumble and bumble for years without pressure and then we fire them to get another stumbler and bumbler. The coach should know that there is an EXPECTATION that he will turn the team around starting in year 1 and will be expected to be in the playoffs on year 2. That will dissuade him from taking on a flier on personal comfort selections in hiring or in drafting.

     

    I think Marrone himself expects to make the Playoffs in year one with this team, even if Fitz is the QB. Running CJ more, and better D play and its possible we make it last year. Next years schedule is brutal though.

  8. I want a coach with intensity that will play an aggressive non standard defense with lots of movement presnap and stunts and different looks to confuse the presnap read

     

    I'm pretty sure Marrone wants the same thing. That's what the D at Syracuse did, and shut down L-Ville and W.VU in the process. I'm thinking we'll get a great DC hire.

     

    Just read Pettine is officially hired per rotoworld?

     

    This would be awesome. (1) good DC. (2) make Rex angry. (3) make Jets fans angry. Win, win, win.

  9. The number of DC openings is limited. I would eliminate teams that hire a first time head coach due to Ryans strong personality. He was percieved in Dallas of overshadowing Jason Garrett. That leaves a handful of jobs and those available veteran coaches are putting together possible staffs. I can be wrong but I think Ryan will not be a DC this season.

     

    Do they have a DC in KC yet. That can be the only place I can think of, or the Redskins as it appears there is a disconnect between Dr. Shanhanan and the DC there.

  10. considering so many teams in front of us need a QB, i doubt that he will be there when we pick at #8. that being said, if he is there at #8, it would be a complete no-brainer to draft him. i'm not absolutely in love with Geno, but he's the best QB available imo in this draft.

     

    What if he and the DE are there at #8 (no way possible, but crazier things have happend I suppose)
