I just want to make sure you don't forget what I have been saying. In case you do, I'll remind you around mid season.

Have we ever thought maybe he hasn't named a starter is becuase he doesn't have a clue on who the starter is going to be. Heck he might even be having regrets about not picking up J. Campbell, J.Clausen, D. Anderson, D. McNab, T. Tebow. C. McCoy, D. Culpepper, J.P. Loseman, J. Delhomme, etc.... Oh wait, I get it he's waiting to unite with Tyler Thigpen...He has out smarted all of us......

Thanks, I would like to thank you and most everyone else for being thoughtful, professional, and curtious listeners. Just wanted to have most all my thoughts on one posting. After about week 8, I will refer this Special Posting" to so many of my fans here. Another favorite quote of mine " He who laughs last laughs the loudest."

I usually like your post so I decided to read it in it's entirety. Wow, was that long. Your point is well taken about our past Qb situation. The only thing that struck me as a little odd was "Actually the likely real deal is that the Bills will want to trade one of their two potential best QBs for a quality player to fill one of our other many holes( an OL player or a #2 WR. Do you really think any of those guys have trade value?

Why shouldn't we have our separate little forum? Offense (1) No new QB - this core is one of the worst in the NFL. Front office response draft Levi Jones and stick with what we have..... No Clausen, No Mcnabb, No Tebow, No McCoy, No Campbell. Clearly, the opportunites were there to "upgrade" the position. (2) Weak offensive line with a medicore center, unproven and inexperienced left tackle, and a medicore RT. Front office response Draft Wang and stick with who we have. Basically, we are starting the same OL we had as last year with the exception of RT. Which by the way Butler was/is better than Green. The OL wasn't good last year and I don't think it will be much better this year. Perhaps, slightly better but that's still not very good. (3) Very weak wide recievers. Besides Lee Evans who else do we have? A bunch of let's hope and see. I'll be watching... Front office response draft Easley a "raw" one year wonder out of UCONN. (4) Not a believer that Coach Galiey is some magican who can wave his magic wand and make this offense productive. A coach still needs to have the players.... (5) Will we ever have a receiving TE who can split the seam of the defense downfield? I was hoping Nelson could be that guy but who knows...All the other TE are big bodied guys with no vertical threat. Offensive Summary How the hell are the Bills going to win games with that many offensive holes, issues and lack of personell? Teams will "stack the box" and squat on the short routes thus taking away our running game. Force the Bills to beat them deep which hasn't happened in years and I don't see it happening anytime soon. Defense (1) I love the switch to the 3-4. Coach Edwards has his hands full. Lots and lots of adjustments and learning to do. NFL facts show that this transition takes time and we will be no different. Good front office move with growing pains.. (2) Who is going to rush the QB? Schobel is gone and he is our best pass rusher. Even with him, our pass rush sucked. I don't know how we are going to pressure the QB. I am not sold on Maybin or anyone else on our roster? Front office response ??????? (3) How are we going to stop the run? We haven't been able to stop the run for years. One of the wrost in the NFL for the last 2-3 years and counting. Front office response draft Troup with the second pick. What were they thinking?????They could have drafted this guys in the 4th, 5th or 6th round. This guy is light in the ass (315) and will take time to develop. Fills a need but he will do little this year and we reached for him. Mt Cody and Cam Thomas were still on the board too. Defensive Summary Teams will continue to run on us because the pieces still aren't in place to stop the run. A work in progress Teams will be able to pass on us due to the lack of pass rush. Our Linebackers will face passing mismatches that teams will exploit. Our secondary is very good but they can't hold of the recievers forever. Overall summary This year is going to be ugly. At best 6 wins but more likely 4-5 wins. At worst 3 wins. Of course there will be key injuries to players that make us less effective. It is just part of football and many fans don't take this into consideration. JUST ONE GUYS SUBJECTIVE BREAKDOWN....... NEVERTHELES, A BILLS FAN FOR LIFE!

Guys don't underestimate the "Gailey factor."

Perhaps a reading lesson is needed? Can you comprehed (means make heads or tails out of what's written) that.

I can feel your enthusiasm and it gave me gooseBumps. Go Bills

Good post.

Very good honest post and I appreciate that.

That is really funny and I am being serious. LOL you got me there. I don't have a cum back for that one.

Doc, maybe to need to reread what they wrote. It is "crystal clear" to me.

Thanks for your post Mr "T" it was absolutely uninspiring and downright boring at best. To top it off, you come accross "holy than thou." I don't have any expectation for this team - I just hope they will be competitive and give us a memorable win or two. Anything more than that and I'll be an even happier camper. Sorry, I think this philosophy or viewpoint is "lame," boring, uninspiring, etc...When you go to a game do you even cheer? Wake up guy and have some spunk, gonads, and hope the Bills can have more then a memorable win or two....With this kinda attitude I suppose you must have been a huge Dick Juaron fan. Sorry to be so blunt...Not my intentions to insult anyone but you have to be kidding me with your message. OH I almost forgot "Think before you speak!"

I have to say I think Wildrabit's and Albany's messages are realistic and forthcoming.

Thanks for the good laugh. Otherwise no comment.

Great post, I am laughing my butt off....

Jin, good point about the line but I am not concerned with the OL after reading all the comments here. (sarcastic comment) According to many our OL is more than adequate and we have coach Gailey who is an "offensive magician." West coast offense, zone blocking schemes, and Spiller who only needs a crack to break free. No worries dude.

Any comparison to TO isn't just. Hardy and TO shouldn't even be mentioned in the same sentence. Hardy has done NOTHING and I mean NOTHING for this team except one nice TD catch. He looked lost and dumbfounded on the field when he was healthy. He couldn't shed any blocks and he looked as "dumb as a rock." A better comparison is to compare him to a rock not TO.

To compare Hardy to TO is absurd. Wake up dude!!!!!!

Well, I must say that was well said. Perhaps, you should consider getting a PR position with the Bills front office. I don't share your optimistic view but I respect it. I sure hope your right?

I am on the record saying I dodn't like the pick but that is a moot point. He is on our roster and I hope he can be productive because last year he was the most unproductive disappointing player on the team. I always thought that top ten (11th pick i know) were supposed to be immediate impact players? (exception qb) Dead point too! Let's give the guy a chance. Too early to run him outta town. He does look to be leaning towards being a bust though. I remember the so called experts saying he is a boom or bust. He is very young and who knows maybe he can turn into a solid player.

Come on! Culpepper is done in the NFL. He had his moments but he is done now. Let's keep it real.

Easy reply, the Buffalo Bills have hurt me for the last ten years. Nevertheless, I still keep coming back for more...

Since when does Bill Cowher become an authority on hiring head coaches? Just because he think highly of hime doesn't mean he will be successful in Buffalo or anywhere else. Besides, maybe he is just recommending a friend?

Dean well said.
