They are surprised that Bills fans have held out this long. The big market teams are tired of sending Millions from profit sharing to a small market team like the Bills. Once the fans give up on the team, they can move it. What are the odds of 14 years without making the playoffs, soon to be 15? it is beyond coincidence.The NFL is fixed

Did I miss something? Improving at what? Holding a clipboard? What have you seen that would lead you to believe that EJ has improved as a quarterback?Lots of people saw it.
Do you have reading comprehension issues? It was about RT

There is no way in hell Marrone goes anywhere. He gets this team ready on Sundays. Every week, their opponents have player after player limping off the field. The Bills may have lost Sunday. But, you can bet your ass the Broncos offence wants nothing to do with them again. Marrone toughened up this team in camp. remember when everyone was crying because Marrone had them in pads too long? This is the toughest team the Bills have had in years. How many starters are usually on IR at this point of the season? Half the starting lineup? yes, they have to fix the Offence and i believe Marrone will. Just like he said he would fix special teams. just like he said he needed to fix his challenges last year. Just like he said he had to fix the Run D last year. just like he fixed having so many players on IR last year. Maybe Hackett goes but that's it.

I was all for starting Orton after the Houston game because I want results now. I may have been wrong. Miami stuck with Tannehill last year when all the fans wanted him benched. Many of the things being said about EJ now, were said about Tannehill. Their patience is starting to pay off, he is starting to look like an NFL QB. He has a ways to go but he is improving. If Orton is not the future, start EJ

The Bills play Denver tough, putting a lot of pressure on Manning all day. The refs feel bad for Manning, he is well liked and respected. Under 2 minutes to play,the Bills lead 24 to 20. Denver is driving. On a critical 4th down, there is a mysterious holding call on Gilmore. It is a cheap call in the sense that the Broncos secondary have been getting away with the same crap all day. The Broncos score a TD with seconds left. The Broncos win 27 to 24. Since he is at Mile high, Orton is caught on camera rolling a doobie. The NFL is happy, Peyton does it again. Vegas is happy, the Bills covered the spread. TBD blows up with "fire everyone threads". Onto Green Bay. Go Bills!!!!

This defense has benched three QB's. If they bring their "A" Game, anything is possible. Anything less than that, it could get ugly.

and orton would puking his guts out
I agree, i don't think an IV of JD at half time would get him through a game.
-
I still remember when Hackett wanted to run a fast paced Offense. He had to slow it down because EJ was not ready to run it at that pace.
-
makes sense. a guy with huge injury question marks faked an injury, and sat out 2 months to get to seattle 8 games earlier than his anticipated free agency.
Exactly! Makes as much sense as this thread. Bottom line, Smith earned the spot on the roster because Moaeki could not take it from him. It reminds me of last years Da' Rick Rogers thread.
-
I think Moeaki played the Bills. He used Buffalo for a paycheck until he was ready to play again. Made sure he was cut, and signed with the team he wanted. Just like Blount played Pittsburgh to get to NE, and Martin played Miami to get to SF. Just my opinion.

It will be played so much, the Browns will be humming the "Shout" song on the way home. Like a bad song you cant get out of your mind.

James Lofton and Andre Reed were fun to watch. The defense could not double both, they had to pick their poison. We have a rookie, and a 2nd year receiver that are better than any #1 receiver we have had in a long time. The future is bright. Quit bellyaching on who got the yards, Sammy will get his share. Go Bills!!!!

Bill Cowher shaking hands with Pegula last night was trending online. make it happen Terry and Kim!
Cower also said on the pregame that its crazy to keep changing coaches every couple years and that Marrone needs to be given a chance. Its difficult for the players to keep learning new systems. They never become experts at the system. I honestly don't think hardly any of the coaches on the list would even come to Buffalo. Hell, Chip Kelly wouldn't come here. He basically said he would go back to Oregon before he came here.

As a Bills fan that now lives in Tampa I must laugh every time I hear someone say that Gruden won the Super Bowl with "Dungy's team". Just a heads up that Dungy never got that team to even win an NFC title let alone a Super Bowl ring. Nor was he ever going to. To drive home my point Gruden brought in 11 of the starters who were on the Super Bowl team (50% of the starters). Including the Quarterback, starting wideouts, starting running back (and guy who shouldve won SB MVP), and many of the defenders even. The only reason Dungy got his ring ring was because of Peyton Manning. Gruden is a FARRRRR superior coach to Tony Dungy and it would be one of the greatest days in Bills history if he came here. He does not settle for mediocrity.
The Quarterback, Brad Johnson, was Tampa Bay's starting QB in 2001. The final year Dungy was coach. Gruden did not bring Johnson to Tampa bay. In 2002 after winning the Super Bowl Tampa Bay had 7 players selected to the Pro Bowl. Derrick Brooks, John Lynch, Shelton Quarles, Simeon Rice, Warren Sapp, Brad Johnson, and Mike Astott. All 7 played in 2001 under Dungy. And that did not include their #1 receiver, Keyshawn Johnson. Not one was brought in by Gruden. The core of the Team was not brought in by Gruden. In fact, Grudens first year was his most successful. As the core group left, so did the success of Tampa Bay.

No way Pegula lets either one go
The question of signing Hughes was asked early in the season. Chris brown gave his opinion, It is question 4. He basically says that the the amount of money Hughes may be asking for, added to what Williams, Williams, and Dareus will be making, would eat up a significant portion of the salary cap just for the defensive line.

this coach gets 2 years ?....this is why bad teams stay bad
Crazy isn't it.

Two thoughts on these..
1. Pepper may have had to use Lawson in some packages that the injured Wynn would normally be in.. can't know for certain if that was the case, but it might account for Manny's inside track to protect against a bounce outside. Shoot, the whole team bought it.. a great call.
2. McKelvin had just helped his intense D unit shut down the Chiefs again, and was still in 'kick ass' mode - someone should have wound him down before the play - reminding him that his #1 job was ball security - not making a play
McKelvin knew better. McKelivin did the same thing in 2009 against the Patriots. We were winning with about 2 minutes left. New England kicks it off after their score. It was about 3 yards deep. What does McKelvin do, he brings it out. The Patriots strip him of the ball. The Patriots score and win the game. At least no one vandalized his yard this time,

It was good to see this young offensive line have a good game. They have another big test on Thursday. If the offensive line can keep improving, the Bills, with that stout D, could finish stronger than many expect. GO BILLS!!!!

Marrone was advertised as as someone who'd be innovative and improve the offense. In addition, given his OL background, we were told he'd help that unit. Yet, after week 2, the offense has become stagnant, save for the gift NYJ gave Buffalo 2 weeks ago.
Marrone hired Nate Hackett, who isn't qualified to be a NFL OC and undoubtedly this move was prompted by the fact that the two wanted to run a similar offense which features little imagination and predictable play-calling.
The team is trending in the wrong direction with Marrone running things. Offensively they've averaging a shade below 20 points per in the last 7 games, which is a far cry from where we figured they'd be with more talent supposedly on the roster.
EDIT: Buffalo is 23rd in the league in both yards per game (331.0) and points per game (21.2). Not the innovation and output you'd expect from how Brandon advertised Marrone.
After 9 games, their record in 2012 was 3-6; 2013 3-6; 2014 5-4; How is that going in the wrong direction?
What if Mike Williams becomes a patriot?

Please explain exactly how Marrone treated him poorly. Were you in the locker room and witnessed this treatment first hand? I am curious because I have never heard any of the coaches say anything derogatory about Williams. I look at it differently. I am pissed at Williams for letting Hogan and others make the 53 man roster ahead of him week after week. I am pissed at Williams for the money he was paid for catching 8 passes for 142 yards, 80 yards of that was on one play. I am pissed at Williams for making a guaranteed 5,2 Million from the Bills in 2015. Treated poorly???? I wish i could be treated so poorly.
