They're just going to play the quick release, short throw underneath, slant game that Brady played and Eli is going to play Sunday, until we can stop it. Once we show we can make teams pay for throwing short all the time, the Bills defense will be truly feared by every team in the league.

We can't hold them accountable, we have to just "ignore" them. The idea that we are all just powerless actors who can only ignore something (which is a pathetically small-time move on a macro-scale of millions of viewers) bugs me. Every time somebody posts a thread trying to start a boycott gets responses like "this is insane", "check your mental health", "Haha you're only giving them publicity". Then a moderator closes the thread. When you get down to it, what those responses are are people telling you that you are powerless to do anything. Of course, this is very far from the truth. One determined person can get the attention of social media, authority figures with an agenda, or local media and start a grassroots campaign to make change at some pretty high levels. It happens everyday for things much larger that sports reporters on local radio stations or marginal beat reporters on ESPN.

I know some people are being cautious, but it's looking like Whaley might be one of the best GMs in the league already in finding personnel. Last night I was thinking about how we're going to resign all our players once Tyrod Taylor is due for an extension and I had trouble falling asleep. Harvin, Incognito, Preston Brown, Bradham, Gilmore, etc. All great players who need extensions. What great problems to have.

Really proud of him to overcome the negativity going into the season. What a steal in the 2nd round! If Miller becomes the guard we hoped he would be, this becomes an amazing draft.

Is this like the motion camera/stats that the NBA has now?

Interesting. I figured they were doing really well. What will they replace the live Sportscenter with? As for Rodak, he'll be gone eventually. Bills fans hate him and we are his biggest readership. People love to say "but he gets clicks blah blah", well true, but reputations take a hit. I'm sure the Buffalo News has lost plenty of readers with Sullivan and Bucky's negativity, eventually more than they gained. I know I'm one of them. They say negative karma comes back with interest. As soon as ESPN does their yearly check-up, they'll want to know why such a small-time NFL beat writer is so hated by the fanbase. It's abnormal and frankly I'm curious if he has a higher readership than James Walker before him.

I watched the Giants All-22. Their running game is meh. Shut down Eli and they're toast. Win the turnover battle, avoid dumb penalties, we win this game almost every time. Bills 31 Giants 17

He still threw a couple passes high on Sunday. Is that a mechanical issue? Height issue? Anybody know?

I agree. Once he started trusting his line, the field opened up for him. He's going to be a top 10-15 QB for a long time.

What did Lawson do?

EVERYONE had that opinion this offseason. The QB position was a laughing stock up until the preseason games. If you blame Rodak for that, you can have a field day with the world class experts at WGR.

What's the NFL's logic there?

We're really good. Definitely a playoff team. Just watch the All-22. But you know what, the Giants have beaten us the last 3 times they played us. And there's something about Eli Manning that even when they are 2-14, they might wake up and beat you on a last second TD. They're dangerous in a weird way, the same weird way they went on two unexpected Super Bowl runs after poor starts to the season. Never count out the Giants. I only watched a little of the Giants All-22 and so far the defense is beatable, but not awful. We should win, but we can't look past them.

To be fair, we don't get paid to read articles nor do we spend at least 8 hours a day reading them.

Everyone wears Heat hats here, but when you start talking basketball with them they look at you with a blank face. I learned my lesson my first few weeks here. I don't talk sports with random people anymore. And I'm talking athletic 20 somethings. People who if you saw someone like that in Buffalo decked in sports gear would 100% know about sports. It's embarrassing.

I live in Miami and they treat the Dolphins the same way we treat the Bandits. Some die-hard fans, lots of casuals, and many more wearing a Dolphins jersey as a fashion accessory. And not just girls, most of the macho guys are fake fans.

What is this? Why are we shaming someone for thinking outside the box? I don't agree with the OP either but it's not an insane theory that Rex didn't want to show all his cards with a 2nd matchup later in the season. Making fun of someone who had the courage to speak his mind discourages others from doing the same. To the OP, ignore everybody who is making fun of you. Never be ashamed to say what you're thinking. Judge for yourself if an idea is dumb, don't let others judge it for you. Imagine the responses if somebody on a forum accused the Pats of videotaping signals in 2003 or if somebody had a suspicion the Saints were putting bounties on player's heads. You would've gotten the same responses. So don't let it get to you.

Watch the video I posted. Clear as day both of them were telling Duke where to go.

Technically, but he's one man and he's got 53 guys. It's difficult for him to monitor every player for every contingency. It's as much Thurman and the DB coach's fault.

Watch the play again:http://www.nfl.com/gamecenter/2015092001/2015/REG2/patriots@bills#menu=gameinfo%7CcontentId%3A0ap3000000534130&tab=videos Pats motioned Gronk and Amendola outside. Duke thinks Bradham is supposed to double Gronk with Gilmore. but Bradham and Gilmore yell at him to help double Gronk. While they're yelling the play is snapped, Bradham bumps Amendola and Gronk runs in untouched and gets an easy reception. Meanwhile Duke ended up helping to double Amendola. Total blown play by Duke. Can't blame Rex on this one.

Why don't you take a breath and think about how dumb your post was.

I always liked Thad. Undersized but a tough competitor.

Some guys just don't have it. Better to bring in a veteran leader instead of trying to turn someone into one.

Do you think that has anything to do with his height?

There is no stat for "penalties at crucial times". IF games are fixed, that's the way they would do it. I'm just saying.
