EJ; "I think my accuracy is just fine".

What's the over/under on hearing "it's only his 13th game" on the forums this week? I'll say 100 and take the over.

West coast team playing an early game on the east coast + coming off a high from beating the Super Bowl champs last week + a rain forecast that favors our run game = Bills 19 Chargers 14

This country has turned into a bunch of wimps.

The segment on the Bills begins just before the 16 min mark. They didn't predict us to be the worst team at the beginning of the year, but one of the worst with 5 or 6 wins. They go on to say they based that prediction on the loss of Byrd/Pettine/Alonso.

Cadillac Williams? That was like a decade ago though.

I also believe the Bills' coaches and players have faith in him to execute anything that's designed in a particular week. I just don't think they will design a gameplan that has him throwing more than 30 times - nor should they with the way the team is built. Of course, I mentioned that in my initial post.

Did he have more than 30 attempts vs the Jets? No, he did not. Now if you are talking about the 1st Jets game, or the Pit game, or the Tampa game with 4 INTs, then yeah - that's what I meant. EJ throwing the ball is not what we want.

I've been skeptical of EJ since his FSU days, and these last 2 games have done little to diminish that skepticism. I'm thrilled we're 2-0 with a home game next, plus EJ does look more fluid and comfortable running the read option and he's not turning the ball over. If we can limit him to 20-25 attempts we probably have a decent chance to win against anyone. But if he has to put the ball up more than 30 times, it's going to get ugly.

I love beautiful women too Donald, but what's this have to do with the Jills?

Vikings announced they have deactivated RB Adrian Peterson

It's still a great inspirational story, about a great man, on a great week for the franchise! I'm sure RW would be thrilled with the way things turned out.

BadLands, it's a great story, but it reads like a Hollywood script after it's 10th iteration. I heard of a $400M penalty for moving in 2020, but not $800M. This wasn't a story of Ralph vs. the NFL -- the majority of league owners did not want us to relocate. Ralph was always against relocation. He signed a lease that was against relocation. That's it. He didn't plan on dying and "hoodwinking" 31 other owners

A good trade because we got something for essentially nothing. But we didn't get 2 seasons of production out of him yet...

That's not my point. Whaley certainly had input regarding the QB position since the day he arrived, to think otherwise is naive. You don't make someone your right-hand man and then lock them in a closet when making decisions at QB.

I'd agree with this 100%. I don't want to downplay a great road victory on a fantastic week for the franchise, but without a +2 turnover differential we probably don't come out of there with a win.

Maybe they should start by taking over their own stadium first.

I thought the Pegulas ran over his dog or something.

He was Assistant General Manager and Director of Pro Personnel since 2010. People need to stop acting like he was sealed in a glass container, completely unable to give any input and not responsible for any of our moves - until the clock struck one day and he was named GM. It's what you want to believe, but it's not reality. Obviously you can't hang the 14 year albatross around his neck, but he's been a large part of the decision making process for the last 4 years.

As Dorkington said "They still think they are a better team than the Bills". It's mathematically impossible to rank each team solely on head-to-head match-ups. If Oakland were to play and beat Seattle next week (they don't play them next week), nobody in their right mind would think Oak is the better team. Not even the people in Oakland. It's not like we dominated them. They outgained us in yards and the game was a tossup going into OT. We won the game because we won the turnover battle.

Well, I can't say with certainty who will remain. I was commenting that there is certainly no stipulation to keep anyone i.e. you don't fork over a billion with strings attached.

You don't pay over a billion to get told how to run your business. C'mon now.

Irregardless, I am giving you leadway as you have peeked my curiosity.

Seriously. I guess a lot of people here don't follow hockey?
