Age and to get jason worilds more playing time

70 tackles 6 sacks and 2 ff in 13 games. When's the last time a Bills lb had those kind of stats? Had more tackles this year than last but 3 less sacks. Stop making it out like he had awful numbers lol

huh? Care to explain that? An undrafted player who came on in his 4th year in the league and has averaged 10 sacks a year since 07. I like to know how a guy who gets sacks and forces fumbles is a "bad player"? What you define as "dirty unsafe hitting" was perfectally clean up until the rule changes. I swear it's like people forget football isnt a pleasant sport. It's a collision sport

how is he a thug? Does he sell drugs? Is he in a gang? Does he break the law? What classifies him as a thug? If you mean he plays defense with a mean streak the way defensive players should play football than yeah sign me up for 11 players who have the tenacity of James Harrison, but I suggest learning what a "thug" actually is before spouting off that nonsense

It's because They want to save money on haircuts. Fewell wasn't hired because he was part of the Jauron regime and our defense was pretty awful not because he's black

Yeah I was gonna say I dont know about the teacher but the newswoman most definitely

you win the thread lmao

Ne year after year is so ridiculously good with running after the catch turning 3-5 yard dumpoffs and screens into 10+ yard receptions routinely.

Flacco isnt going anywhere hes a raven lifer

Whether or not anyone in the jets organization believes they can do anything to fix Sanchez they're stuck with his contract so he's not going anywhere

Denver over Balt. Peyton has pretty much torched the Ravens defense his entire career I dont see that changing. I get the emotional high the Ravens may be on for Ray Lewis but it will be fleeting. Denver wins going away. Gb over SF The Packers offense is humming Aaron Rodgers hasn't thrown a int since week 13. The Niners best bet will be to hit gb with a heavy dose of their run game and control the clock. Close until GB pulls away late. Seattle over Atlanta- I'm not a believer in Atlanta. I see the Sehawks defense giving Matt Ryan and the falcons inability to run the ball a lot of problems. Seattle wont have a great game offensively but they'll force Ryan into mistakes that costs the game for the Falcons setting up the "Revenge Game" NFC Championship between the Packers and Sehawks Houston at NE- I don't put any stock into how bad NE beat Houston the first time around. If Houston plays their game meaning they give the ball to Arian Foster and don't shoot themselves in the foot they keep it close. If I was betting no way Ne covers the spread. The problem for the Texans is their secondary is exploitable and will have problems dealing with the spread offense the Pats run. Brady was pinpoint the first game and avoided the Texans dline's penchant for knocking around passes he's going to have to be just as accurate again. I've been flip flopping on this game, as I feel it's going to be a lot closer than people think. I picked Houston to win the SB before the season starterd so I'll stick with that. Houston wins late.

Byrd is gonna get paid regardless. Hopefully the Bills are the ones who pay him

Summed it up CJ Spiller is amazing! Hopefully he gets the carries he deserves under hackett's playcalling

Not just that game but everytime I watch the Bledsoe era Bills I get kinda mad at what Eric Moulds career could've been had he had a real quarterback. Imo the best receiver the Bills ever had including Reed.

I dont agree with cutting Brad Smith I think he has value that wasn't maximized and he's shown it when he is used.

Denver/GB

THIS JUST NO!!

The reason he resigned at USC was because he wanted to pursue opportunities in the NFL. From Nov 29th http://www.nfl.com/n...l-opportunities

There's been enough examples over the years in multiple sports that brain damage has to be looked at as a real issue when it comes to violent/suicidal behavoir. There was also a serious look into how traumatic brain injury could trigger the onset of ALS (Lou Gehrig's disease) Once a real link is recognized by the NFL hopefully they'll do more to financially support the medical care of retired players.

What he said.

I hear ya, but honestly I'd rather deal with this than the constant "OMG WE NEED A QB....OMG THERES NO QB.....OMG FITZ SUCKS..." threads that seem to dominate pretty much everything else There's quite a bit of talented players at de/olb that will go high. I've always been a big proponent of the "you don't draft lb's high unless they're pass rushers" mantra. Granted there are exceptions to the rule on occasion. Doesn't look like that's the case in this draft. The Bills could use help at all linebacker spots regardless of the scheme they ultimately end up playing although someone like Bradham I think would be a monster in a 3-4 defense as a rush backer. Can never have enough quality linebackers either way.

Honestly I dont care what scheme we play as I feel in order to really be a good defense you have to be versatile. 3-4/4-3 all that is is a base alighnment. You can run so many different coverage schemes/blitzes then you get into your nickle/dime defenses. in a base 3-4 you can run more blitz packages, however you can also run similiar blitz schemes in a 4-3. Honestly my favorite defense is the 4-3 defense that was coached by Jim Johnson (for more modern variations Spags 07 Giants defense a Johnson disiciple Ron Rivera uses elements of it as well) when it comes down to it there where no better d coordinators over the last 20 years than Johnson and Lebeau. I like any kind of attacking defense that while you may sacrifice yards on the ground if ran right you're going to dictate play from multiple alignments and blitz schemes. It's the most fun thing to watch in football. I believe in order to be a successful defense today you have to be versatile. So much of todays game is played with defenses having to line up in the nickle and other coverage alighnments you can't throw around simplistic terms like 3-4 vs 4-3. You should have players that can adapt to both. However for the sake of your question, I'm going to say I would prefer a 4-3 base alignment.

Cowher is waiting for either the Giants to fire Coughlin or Coughlin to step down. Either too much time will pass and he'll retire or he'll be coaching the giants next year

Get this done It's been far to long since we had a defense that dictated play!!! LET'S GO
