Here is a thought. Why don't we let this season get a few games in and see what Trent can do in Gailey's offense before we try naming next years "star" QB. I'm all for keeping an eye on the future, but all of this Locker and Luck crap is getting to be ridiculous.

Yeah but did you see this http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/news;_ylt=AhS15vcDDrxoznDLNyYlGB_.uLYF?slug=teamreports-2010-nfl-buf Looks like someone might actually be paying attention to what the Bills might have this year, as opposed to what they had last year.

Running back is by far the easiest position to step into the starting line up at in the NFL. My point is give him this year to play and see what he's got. Lets not be so quick judge a guy. Its not like he has played 30+ games and done jack @#$t

Jauron took a 5-11 team and went 7-9 his first season. His worst record as a Bills coach was 7-9 (full season) In comes Chan Gailey. A guy who thus far has proven to be everything Jauron was not. A guy that demands hard work, attention to detail, can game plan, has an offensive mind, and expects his players to win as opposed to telling them "it's hard to win in the NFL". Other than T.O., what has significantly changed for the worse? -Defense switching to 3-4 will take some time, but the idea is that it will help shore up our horrid run D from last year. At some point in the season, this switch will be a positive. -Special teams do look suspect, but we need to wait till the starting line-up is in for the regular season -Offense now has a real OC. We added Spiller. Roscoe will be more involved. The O-line is more experienced and for the time being, is healthy. They have shown signs of life thus far in the pre-season and are actually exciting to watch. How can people (fans and "analysts") predict this team to only win 3 games? I would like to think that overall our team has improved on paper from the last few years, or at least stayed the same. So the question is this: Who wins more games given the same team, Gailey coached Bills or Jauron coached Bills? I say Gailey, hands down. That’s why I say we go at least 8-8 this season and make a push for a Wild Card spot.

The guy is only 22, played one full season at the college level, and saw little playing time his first season due to his holdout. Lets take a step back for a second and look at it like this: If we drafted Maybin this year (same spot) and this was his rookie season, given his preseason play thus far as a "rookie", how does he look? I would say he looks pretty good for a "rookie" and has some potential. Even if a bulk of his time isn't against starters. Give the KID some time!!

1-15 would mean two things: 1) We got significantly worse than the Dick days 2) Its really gonna be a while before we can contend I will take 7-9. If next years draft comes and we are middle of the pack, we can always trade up to get the guy we want.

I am pretty sure that misdirection in still working pretty well for Miami with the Wildcat. Granted, not like it did when first unvailed. Start to worry when our offense is full of nothing but gimmic plays and misdirections. Until then, strategy and misdirection every once in a while is breathe of fresh air from playing Dick Ball (which clearly worked! )

Yeah, we practiced against a 4-3 defense, pretending to be a 3-4. Big difference between practicing against last years mock 3-4 and this years real 3-4. I admit, we are not a polished 3-4 D by any means. But the reps the offense gets in practice this year against our 3-4 will be a huge benefit when we face a 3-4 in the regular season.

Why would you draft players from all three AFC East teams? How can you possibly root for those guys to do well? My number one rule is to never draft a player from a rival team.

In regards to our backs... FJ is questionable/doubtful for the opener, but they made it sound like Lynch could be back by the Lions game and shouldn't be an issue for opener. However, Lynch has yet to practice and there has been little to no update on his ankle. Am I missing something? To me it would seem he needs to get practicing in the next couple days if he is to at full speed and effective come the 12th.
