Well we do have other linebackers and safeties. Is Benett your best player? I thought Gronk was?

See #5 above. Any given Sunday. Rex's locker room talks this week will concentrate on "next man up" and "we are being underestimated again". The whole "No respect" thing works and helps the Bills play inspired football. You won't hear any bragging from the coaches or players this week. The Miami game hurt them physically and they took it personal. The real bullies will play this Sunday. Yes...borrowing a play from BB's coaching textbook...take their best player and make him a nonfactor. A healthy Gronk has not played against a healthy Z Brown

The reason I didn't mention Gronk or Bennett is because they will be non-factors.

That loss to Miami really boiled my blood. I think ALynn tried to out maneuver the Fish by attempting a passing attack rather than sticking to our bread and butter (run and stop the run). That's why this Sunday we will beat the Patriots by 10 points....as follows: 1) Run and stop the run: Our O Line is relatively healthy. They have been solid all year (mostly). They felt embarrassed by the Miami game. The O Line will get together and assure this does not happen again (especially at home). We have a healthy Gilislee and J Williams. TD Mike can score on long runs up the middle. 1b) Stop the Run - Rex will look to stop the run first. Blount and White will have to be contained by our LB's. If the Miami game has a silver lining it is this: You have to stop the run first and foremost. Rex took a 200 yd rusher against his D personally...as he should. This won't happen to the Bills D this week. 2) Pressure on Brady - Shaq Lawson popped his cherry. Lorax and Brown are playing lights out. KW and Washington are also healthy. KW will inspire the troops. Dareus may play. 3) Our CB's played their second worse game of the year (after Jets). Ed Reed and Rob Ryan will have a gameplan for our secondary that will limit Brady while he feels pressure. TWO INTS. this game. 4) Special Teams - our punting game and kicking unit are playing well. Edelman has slippery fingers as a return man. We are gonna hit NE hard. 5) The X Factor: Patriots have won games they shouldn't have won this year (without Brady) and are due for a loss they should win. The entire National Media will be singing the praises of T Brady all week...until after the game when the Bills walk away with the win. 6) Tyrod - ALynn will call a manageable game for TT. Passes to the TE's Clay and O'Leary, Hunter for red zone calls and designed runs for TT. He will return to normal form. 7) The Bills are Home team dogs by 6 pts. 'Nuff said. Go Bills!!!

Thanks guys...had a great day with the family yesterday...then the Bills lost. *smh*

Frank Lewis is drawing Social Security but, hell...call him.

Welcome to the party. This discussion has been going on for three to four weeks. Selfish prick.

....and has 4th string WR's on the field because "tender foot" can't play.

Who the hell is Andre Rogers??

Bad flight. Warm cocktails on plane. Guys decide to play Risk all night. Dareus takes over Siberia and Tyrod gets upset. Goes to bed at 4am. Bad breakfast at the hotel because the "do it yourself" waffle iron is out of order. Richie is upset and calls management. There's a scuffle. Team is late to the field. Shaq slips on a puddle of orange juice. Not a good day. Fish 31 Bills 10

Pretty sure there's a waiting period of three weeks before that decision has to be made.

I know the exemption had to do with the population and demographics of Buffalo vs. other big cities. I recall news stories about how he was trying to decide if he would sell the Sabres at the time and Jacobs was a suitor for buying the Sabres (once again, because his ownership of the Bruins fell outside the population and demographics exemption)

Jacobs doesn't own the Patriots...Bob Kraft does.

Yes!!!

I think you were right the first time. It's an anti trust issue (federal regulation) that has trickled down into the NFL By Laws as I recall.

Jacobs couldn't buy the Bills because he didn't have the backing of the City of Hamilton, ONT. Once Pegula made his pitch to Hamilton, the league approved T Pegs offer. A backroom deal was made that permitted his ownership of both the Sabres and Bills even though they are within a 200 mile radius of Toronto.

..and the water boy in the red shirt. Shoot...everyone is healthy.

So is Felton it appears.

Seriously...if we have a surplus in one game, put them in a lockbox.

The oil well has to be 100 yds from the lake as per DEC regs.

Last time I checked a "drop kick" is still allowed in the NFL. The OP is suggesting just that.

Great article. Kind of surprised the reporter didn't ask him how he got around the ban on owning two professional franchises in the same city.

Sammy's injury and placement on IR was attributable to pain tolerance (it was confirmed that he couldn't do any more damage to the foot). So he was unable to cope with the pain. The OP may have a point (unlike Rothlisburger who has a torn meniscus, Hoyer with broken arm, etc. more serious injuries). Dareus is...well, he's Dareus. He can't play because he needs to get himself back into game shape (did you seriously expect him to workout over those 4 weeks?) I think Shady is taking it easy...he had himself a career game (3 TD's)...he's relaxing the legs for the week.

Zzzzzzzzzzzz

How the hell will you know if someone is a Whaley hater or supporter?? Do you have a Composition Notebook with ledgers, checkmarks and dates of "mean posts"??
