Just in Atlanta

They should've called the person in question and asked him what he thought of our trading a first-round draft pick for Watkins. This is clearly Pulitzer material nonetheless. Which reminds me, I need to give the Buffalo News a call. I saw some toothless guy behind a liquor store in downtown Atlanta selling VHSs. One was "Almost a Dynasty." That dude would make a killer profile. Our team is so famous!

Wow, I thought that was an urban myth. Holy cow. Alanis Morrisette should include this one in a song someday.

True story: Last night I had a dream John Rocker bought the Bills.

We need to change the name of this thread to reflect drag racing. Every time I see it pop up, I think he's been arrested ... again.

This is a hoax, a pretty elaborate one. http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2014/06/13/evan-mathis-strikes-again/

To the people saying ST wasn't a significantly bad unit last season: http://www.footballoutsiders.com/stats/teamst 30th worst, according to this. Anecdotally, I remember this unit putting the team in bad positions time and time again, and taking a big step backward from the previous season.

I prefer Super Bowl Fiddy.

I'd be surprised if Vick ended up on second string despite what the jets say.

Two times in one offseason is two too many. But I am relieved he was not arrested ... again! ... after just getting arrested (again).

No alleged damage? WTF? Smacks of a greed play. Marino and his ilk will slowly kill this game. Litigation always wins in the end. There will be a time when threats of never-ending lawsuits will force the NFL to make radical changes to the violence of the game we love. When that happens, it's virtual flag football. I think the analogy I've seen is apropos: A solider suing the federal government for getting shot. What makes it worse is that Marino is a millionaire and the soldier/marine makes $20K a year if that.

Guy can't even hold on to his cell phone connection. And this is OUR franchise QB? Doomed.

Illogical to think this team would have a 100 percent worse record with the relative stability we've had season to season (sans Byrd) and draft / FA additions, which most pundits seem to think will contribute positively ASAP. So, a new defensive scheme (not really) and stud receiver will have us losing three more games next season? Nate Davis can suck it.

Can we leave it at I personally think 6.9 percent is decent considering the QB situation and injuries, and that I personally think he's a good WR, and that I personally will miss him as a fan?

Dude -- his drop percentage is 6.9 percent -- significantly better than Wes Welker, Brandon Marshall and many others. You are slicing and dicing. Regardless, he's gone. My viewpoint is he's a solid No. 2 asset. I personally will miss him as a fan.

You can slice and dice data. You think SJ sucks, so be it. The data I'm looking at shows a decent figure, despite having three different QBs and injuries.

In the oft chance your question is sincere :-0 the first two are Manuel and the third one is SJ.

One analyst called it "slow eyes." Apropos. That, and of course his penchant for busting his knees on nondescript plays. I look forward to seeing where he can take his game come September. I don't know. All I know is I loved his hustle (never stopped, even when he wasn't the designated target) and route running ability, and he seemed to love playing for the team and living in Buffalo.

My point: He's not as bad as some fans here think. There are others with higher drop rates on this team. He's right in the middle of NFL receivers. Which isn't bad considering he's had to play with more QBs than I can even count.

SJ's completion percentage is average. Some fans have a selective memory due to high profile drops. And there are other players on the Bills (Choice, Graham) with higher drop rates. Losing SJ is going to hurt. http://www.sportingcharts.com/nfl/stats/drops/2013/

Is he cheap?

Because this is clearly a Congressional issue.

The Goat Island Bills. Nice ring to it. Would have to do something with the Tesla monument though. And then there's this :"The western end of the island is slowly being eroded by the falls and the entire island will eventually disappear as the falls erode further upstream." An analogy to the Bills? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goat_Island_(New_York)

And with the first pick of the 2015 draft, the Buffalo Bill select ... A Pair of Healthy Knees.

OK. But what does Hostetler Jr. think?

I'm all in, but I'll say it again -- those story lines are for Bills fans. Now if Cyrus Kujo would come out of the closet or something, then we'd have something.
