If you are going to be snarky and chastise people for asking the question, please at least get your facts straight. Last years Bills game in Toronto was a sell out. So I suppose that last year you didn't have to tell all of the dummies what was what.

Nobody really cares about any of that off the field stuff. Murderers, women-batterers, dog killers - people just don't care as long as they play well on Sundays. Yawn.

Do you honestly think that is anywhere close to what the Bills are doing? Here are two major differences to consider: 1) Milwaukee is full of absolutely ravenous fans and is home to the majority of Packers ticket buyers. 2) The cash monies. But sure, this is absolutely the same thing. Heck, the Bears played games in Urbana while they built their stadium. OMG SEE????!!!!

Tell that to the lackies here that claim other motives. But lining Ralph's pockets helps keep the Bills in New York. Lol city.

If the Bills move, they are going to move because of Ralph's succession plan, not because of a bunch of games played in Toronto. Don't be blinded by Wilson and Brandon's spin machine - the reason for the Bills playing their games in Toronto is because of the CASH MONEY they received to sell their home games (and the associated competitive advantage therein). The Bills have long cultivated relationships with nearby communities. You won't see a Bills game played at the Carrier Dome in Syracuse to build regional interest in the team. But you would see it if someone flashed Ralph another pile of money. "But selling our home games for cash and having them played on the moon is better than them taking the Bills from us! THEY CANT TAKE THE BILLS FROM US!" Competitive advantage in actual meaningful games (not just for us, but we're playing actual decent teams here) sold for cash money. Selling a free field goal to the Patriots in December isn't really much of a stretch from here. You should feel sick about this. Yet nobody really does, because everyone has the "we don't deserve the Bills in Buffalo because we suck so bad please don't take them we'll do anything" defeatist attitude.

I mean hey, if we need to spot every team we play a touchdown, at least the Bills will stay in Buffalo! This garbage is the biggest slap in the face that Bills fans have ever seen. A thousand times worse than a terrible product on the field, incompetent front office personnel, or mind bogglingly bad drafts. Your owner is literally selling home field advantage in actual regular season games that COUNT to determine championships, an advantage that is historically worth about the same amount as our margin of defeat in each of the last two games. He is selling a roughly three point advantage for cash. Call him cheap or senile or whatever you want, but understand that Ralph Wilson's biggest fleecing of Bills fans happens yet again on Sunday. I feel sorry for you if you feel that this dispicable garbage is somehow ok, that we should accept having points taken off the board by our owner because Buffalo stinks so much and we need to accept this fleecing because we don't deserve a team and are lucky to have one. Because we need to market to Toronto! Funny that other teams can market their franchises regionally without selling their home games. Go figure. I hope Ralph doesn't find a way to sell ACTUAL touchdowns for cash in his pocket. We would have absolutely zero reason to believe he wouldn't.

The Buffalo Bills: Selling competitive advantage for cash money. Let us not forget how dispicable this Toronto garbage is.

The message delivered by this thread should be the thing that scares Bills fans the most. We have faced tough opponents, and it'll be difficult to maintain our losing pace enough to secure the #1 pick in the draft. Arrgh.

I think your draft is smoking drugs, but boy would that be sweet. Edit: Can not be overstated, that would literally turn our team from an irrelevant piece of trash into an instantly relevant team on the rise.

Dear The Wang From Sang, Please tell us which teams are bad teams, that is, the teams that are worse than the Bills, who you say is a good team. Thanks, -Reality

No.

We didn't run the ball because our running backs are not playing "NFL-caliber" football. Jackson is #33 in the NFL. Spiller might not even dress for games, as much as you see him touch the ball. Gailey went with what he considered his best chance to win - let your quarterback, who might be the 24th best in the league - handle the ball, as opposed to handing it to a relatively worse player.

I'm not even sure what you are arguing - you used Chris Johnson's rookie season to compare with C.J. Spiller's rookie season in order to defend Spiller. My rookie NFL rushing performance is much closer to C.J. Spiller's than Spiller's is close to Johnson's. But I guess if they have the same "frame", he'll end up being as good?

Are you on drugs? The Bills are literally the worst team in the NFL. They aren't a good team, they aren't even a bad team. They are the worst. When you can't really find anyone outside this board that would rank the Bills higher than the Carolina Panthers, it is hard to call yourself a "GOOD TEAM", no? Out of curiosity, if the Bills are a "GOOD TEAM", can you name some bad teams? Or are all teams in the NFL good, because they could win most of the time against UFL teams?

That is all fair enough - but I don't think anyone is really throwing him under the bus. He isn't the reason we are losing these games, but he also is part of the reason that we aren't winning ANY games. He continues to make the critical gaffe that blunders away a would-be win. That is fine though, a slightly below-average quarterback is fine until our QB of the future is groomed and ready to step in. It really won't take long for a highly-touted QB prospect to play at his level though, so I'd expect that to happen about this time next year.

Their "frames" are about the only thing that C.J. Spiller and Chris Johnson have in common. The numbers don't lie.

He has a pretty significant body of work as an NFL quarterback across his many stops as a journeyman QB. Neither of us can predict the future, but I'd be willing to bet that he'll perform more along the lines of his career average than have a statistical aberration. Guess we'll see, but either way, he just makes too many blunders that lose games to be an elite-level QB. Please don't cut him though. He is useful.

Kyle Williams is a great player. He has a real chance at making the Pro Bowl, as DT is one of the "reputation" positions, and he's already been selected.

LOL @comparing Spiller to Chris Johnson. In Johnson's rookie year (splitting carries), he rushed 251 times for 1,228 yards with a 4.9 yard per carry average and 9 rushing touchdowns. In Spiller's rookie year, he has rushed 32 times for 130 yards with a 4.1 yard per carry average and 0 rushing touchdowns. Projecting to a full season, that'd put Spiller at 72 carries for 296 yards and 0 touchdowns. Great comparison between Spiller and Johnson

I support Spritzy as the starting QB this year and at least a portion of next year while our #1 pick gains experience in the NFL. He won't end up with a 90 QB rating, it'll probably end up in the mid 70s to lower 80s, as per his career averages. But either way, he'll be holding the clipboard in another year or so. In the meantime, we all support him trying his hardest and keeping the seat warm.

I'll give you Williams and Johnson, but the blind love for "Freddie Jackson" should probably be curtailed a bit. I mean, he is #33 in the league in rushing. Ouch. Guys like Justin Forsett, Chris Ivory, BenJarvus Green-Ellis, and Ryan Torain are crushing him in every statistical category. Jackson is a far below-average starting RB in the NFL - he is the Fitzpatrick equivalent at his position. Great guy, hard worker, just not really quite good enough.

Step one was apparently to lock up your stud OLB Chris Kelsay long-term.

BAM...there he goes.

Spritzy is going to see a statistical correction for his passer rating/TD-INT ratio. He has plenty enough time in this league to know about where he'll end up on balance, and the book is definitely out on him. He is a high-motor journeyman quarterback who'd be a fine back-up for most NFL franchises. He is ~an 75 QB rating guy with a 50/50 TD to INT ratio. He'll make some good throws, and make some epic blunders to give away games. His heart and moxie are frequently betrayed by his inaccurate arm. He will be a great mentor for our #1 draft choice, who, if we are lucky, might turn into the NFL's next elite-level franchise quarterback. If that happens, we'll be a relevant team competing for championships for a decade.

In this thread: A ton of sour grapes from jealous Bills fans.
