  1. Over the years i have found my fandom isn't nearly as fanatical as it once was along with a lot of other things ! Some will remember this phrase which will tell you all how long i've been a Bills fan . "Miami's got the oranges but we got the Juice" With that A lot of the changes that Goodell, owners, & players have made has in some ways seemed to take some of the greatness away from the game we all love & it continues to invade the Super Bowl. It use to be that every part of the Super Bowl was exciting, every one was on the edge of their seats not only to watch the games but to watch the advertisements that would be on in the game . During commercial breaks you wouldn't want to get up so not to miss a great commercial ! I'm sure each of us can remember one certain commercial from the SB that you love !! Well now with all the hype of the SB, the sponsors or the NFL who ever is in charge of playing the commercials are ruining that as well ! I was watching some SB hype on the NFL network or ESPN last night & now they are showing what commercials will be ran during the game ?? I guess as a tease but it ruins it for me !! One of the things that was intriguing about those adds were that you waited with anticipation to see how much thought went into the making of those adds . It was like a Micheal Jackson concert i saw once years back, he kept you on the edge of your seat waiting & anticipating what he was going to do next ! That was part of the intrigue of the SB along with the game there were the commercials !! Who ever now has taken that SB experience completely out of the game by showing them before the game !! Talk about deflate gate !! I will say I have not truly been into a SB since our Bills have been out of them & maybe that has some to do with why my enthusiasm has been much less than it use to be but giving away these small pieces or jewels of the show before it airs is just one more thing that has been taken away from the over all experience of the SB !! I don't know if any of you have these same thoughts about it (but i'm sure as Bills fans you will let me know one way or the other) but why do they always try to improve perfection !! 5 or so years ago the game was at it's peak more viewers than ever, more fans than ever, & they are trying to improve perfection !! They are moving games to other countries, taking games away from the loyal fan base, along with outrageous player behavior (see Richard Sherman) contracts (see Dareus/Gilmore & what they think they are worth) it;s all part of it's ratings going down !! Now chiseling away a little more of the anticipation of the SB by giving away these adds before the game is played just takes that much more away from us as fans which maybe is part of my growing lack of enthusiasm for the NFL . I know that things have to change, but certain changes aren't always good for the game !! Could that be part of why viewership is down this year ?? Along with the prima donna athletes such as Pac Man Jones, Richard Sherman, & Cam ?? Thank god for players like Kyle Williams !! Go Bills !! Next thing you know there will be 20 games a year, London, Mexico, Canada & other countries will have NFL teams & they will still be trying to figure out why the ratings aren't what they use to be !!!
  2. After playing in Rex D for so long coaching the average D is a piece of cake to figure out so it's a lock that he would be a good D coordinator !
  3. In a recent interview at the Pro Bowl Gilmore said "i want to be wanted where ever it is i go" I'm taking that in the same respect that Dareus proclaimed that he didn't think the Bills wanted him when they only offered him a pitiful $90 mil. But when they upped it to $100 mil then he felt wanted. So i guess if the offer is the amount that Gilmore thinks he's worth he will want to be here if not hen who ever offers what he wants then he will feel wanted ... Although he's not worth what HE thinks he's worth !!!
  4. With now 2 invites to the pro bowl even though it be as the second or alternate with what his contract price is at they need to keep Tyrod, but that being said they need to draft a QB they think worthy to develop. They need to take a page out of the winningest team in the AFC the Pats & draft them (while they have Tyrod) , develop them incase Tyrod doesn't progress, & that way if he does & a team like the Browns need a QB they have trade bait for more picks . That way they always insure that they have a NFL QB in the wings or at least a possible QB .. Or they just need to go try to get the Bengals back up & be done with it !!
  5. It sounded like he was a bit tanked during his speech ...
  6. Write another post on how much our QB sucks in true Bills fan fashion & go about your day, continue to complain about it even if we keep T.T. & second guess the GM/front office/coaching staff & all will be right in Bills fandom !!
  7. But it's hard for a Bills fan to digest all of what you wrote, they just blame it all on the QB for the most part !! If you don't win in 2 years your GONE !! Then we all watch players like Hogan go to the SB & go why didn't he do that while he was here ? The Bills haven't had a decent QB in so long that we as fans don't understand what a decent QB looks like any more & have a tendency to think a good one (once found) isn't any good ! Like we do about T.T. The Bills need to keep T.T. because his contract is decent for a QB that has went to or been asked to the Pro bowl 2 seasons in a row. Let him be the gap until "That Guy" is found to take the future roll as the Bills QB ! He's a lot better than Fitz & not a interception magnet either !! Good post by the way !!
  8. It would be totally incompetent for the Bills to do away with Tyrod seeing as this is the second year he has made it to the pro bowl. That would be a typical Bills type move !! They need to keep T.T. & continue to develop Jones & draft another QB like other pro teams do !!
  9. Trade Dareus to the 49ers for 2 draft choices a #1 & a #2 ...
  10. How did no one know that he had a drinking problem in college ? Were the coaches just blind ?? This guy is the second coming of Flutie his game reminds me so much of Flutie & no matter what any Bills fan says now about Doug you can bet your A** when he was running around winning games for the Bills they (Flutie hating fans) were jumping on the couch watching him . It would be a low risk signing but Manziel would have to be watched like a hawk & kept away from Bruce & Jim because of there past drinking history . I hope he can get over it with the amount of money he can make i would think that could be a huge motivating factor !! Good Luck Johnny football !!
  11. 8 & 8 really the Pats game was a throw away game just like the first Pats game this past year !! There were none of the high powered starters in the game when Marrone was coaching same as when Rex coached them this past year & seeing as once again with Brady the Pats are in the AFC championship game both of those games were throw aways !! I know a win is a win but not sure just how much weight either of those carry !! But i did like Hacket & think he could be good if Marrone leaves him to his job & let's him do what he thinks best for the offense !!
  12. Marrone being hired as the Jags next HC is looking for redemption. He is hiring mostly the same coaches that he had in place while he was in B/lo, i think before it is over he will have basically that same staff . I believe he will do a decent job with the Jags & if he has a winning season will break out the Toby Keith mantra from a few years ago (How Do You Like Me Now) & point it directly at the Bills organization & it's fans. I'm not sure why he bolted the way he did here but something must have made him think prior to his hire as the Bills HC that he could (& did) need that get out of jail pass that he put in his contract . I wonder if he has the same clause in this contract ? This will be the job that cements his legacy in the NFL, if he does the same in a couple of years & QUITS like he did here he will probably never get another HC job unless he wins every year that he is there because winning is the cure to all ills in the NFL . But if he is mediocre as i hope he is the Bills will be able to say, See he is that guy, but if he is a winner there with mostly the same staff then the Bills as usual will look like the Bills once again ...
  13. I hope we take the top safety prospect ! Or the WR from Clemson !! Arron Williams is talking about coming back which for the kind of player & person he is i would love to see it but the Bills can't afford another season with him taking a hit in the second game & our starter being on the bench or IR for the rest of the season !! R.Woods will probably get a lot more $ than the Bills are willing to offer so we will need another #2 WR which this kid projects as a #1 so that would have to #1 WR's & both would be from Clemson ... Time to move on from A. Williams even though i wish he could stay healthy !!!
  14. Please don't let them hire this guy mediocre is his history, & the Bills have had enough of that !! Onward & upward !!
  15. Ask any other child of a star or any other relation to a huge star that chooses the same career path how hard it is to follow a icon, that is a huge amount of pressure just being there not even counting when they finally do make it to the field ...
  16. PLEEEEEASE NOT OLSON !!!! We've had enough second rate coaches !! Especially with guys like Musgrave, Childress,& others out there, these are 2 guys that have proven that they can win in the NFL Olson has only had 1 count them ONE season in the top ten. I think i might almost rather have C Kelly than Olson at least we know when Kelly had Shady he had a great offense !!
  17. It is definitely a coach to take your time about !! Taking a chance on the wrong one could be devastating as we all know !! This Olson cat i hope they look around him simply because of his history I would rather have a proven coach as OC . The guy from the Raiders (Musgrave) is my choice but if not him then i would wait & ask to talk to Childress . What he has done in KC added to his record in Minn. which is a winning record is worth the wait when you are a Bills fan !!!
  18. Thats a brilliant idea I hope this was a sarcastic post !!
  19. Well L.A. finally has what they want 2 NFL teams in a city that could never support them before & this will be the 3rd such experiment ??? I hope it fails miserably ... I for one hope they follow the history that has already been laid down . L.A. want s to be all that & a bag of chips but they ain't !! I for one am so glad the Pegula's bought the Bills this could be our fan base being all pissed of as the San Diego fans are & should be !! But as we know in the NFL its all about the money !!! My viewer ship has went down this year compared to others & the biggest reasons are because of what the league has become . It is mostly a bunch of spoiled athletes that have forgotten where they came from in actions & another bunch of rich/greedy owners that could give a S**T less about the fans ! As long as they make more money thats all that matters !! Screw it that the fans have went out of there way to make Spanos & others very rich & that the city has went above & beyond trying to do whats right to keep the team . But when push comes to shove the owners will take their toys & go some where else to play with them it sucks for the fans !! Maybe this is just a master plan for expansion in the NFL ...
  20. I hope they bring in the guy from Oakland, his name is Musgrave he has done a great job with Carr in just 2 years . We need some one like him to work on Tyrod . He may be able to turn him into a great QB !!
  21. Well he ain't no J. Norman or what Revis use to be even though he may think so. I think another team will think he is & he will follow the money but will wind up like Byrd just another over paid average CB !! Sure he has his good games but he also has those games too !!
  22. I agree !! We need to have Lynn as HC , bring in the Raiders OC Musgrave he is leaving because his contract is up & he's not going to resign with them . Then have Whaley break the bank on getting Watson & the Bills can be the next big thing !! Whaley needs to show his brass & make it happen !!
  23. The Bills have had a long history with the Raiders, we beat them quite a bit back in the day . I hope that Mr. Whaley is watching the sports wire today because a Raider came available & he should get on inviting him to town for dinner ! The Raiders OC that has taken Derrick Carr in 2 years & made him & their offense number one in a lot of ways . He was up for & still could be MVP this year . If Carr wouldn't have gotten hurt there was talk of them being a SB contender, but with out him it was short lived . The man responsible name is Musgrave, he is the one behind all that offense & the Raiders are letting him walk because his contract is up & Delrio is all right with it ???? Mr. Whaley please for goodness sake at least call the guy !!! http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000772568/article/raiders-oc-bill-musgrave-not-expected-to-return It hit the wire today that he will NOT resign with the Raiders who knows what thats all about but if it can benefit the Bills who cares !! This guy as it looks can develop a QB so if Whaley brings him in & spends the farm to get The kid from Clemson Watson ----- WOW just imagine what this team could look like ! I know Sammy Watkins would be digging it for sure !! So thats my vote hire Lynn for the HC, Musgrave for OC, & Lovie Smith for DC ---- WHAT !!
  24. If that decision is already made then we can use a favorite quote from another coach but it will be used towards the Bills front office . "They are who we thought they are" and we let them keep us on the hook !! Thanks D.G.
