From a consumers perspective, I agree. I like to defend Ralph because Fan(atics) don't seem to get that it is a business first. For you young guys, check the history of nfl teams and you'll see most if not all have their cycles of being good and bad. Alot of them were bad for long periods of time as well. If you are a fan long enough, you'll see it's cyclical and the nfl's system makes it hard to sustain a dynasty. All of this leads to my point that Ralph has been a hell of a CEO and owner. Hell, what has Washington or Dallas gotten with all that $ their wonderful CEO's have spent.

How do Paul Miller, Jim Racalto, or Joe B know any more than you or I do. Well, unless you write/report on the nfl or certain teams like these guys do, it's their job to know more than you or I. They have access to more info than we do. Let's fix this question: How do you or I Paul Miller, Jim Racalto, or Joe B know any more than you or I doPaul Miller, Jim Racalto, or Joe B?

Calling Ralph cheap doesn't really do justice to how bad of a CEO he's been Depends on who's perspective you are looking at. As CEO of the Bills he has maintained a franchise that has turned a profit almost every year, if not every year. He owns the team outright. Sounds like a hell of a CEO to me. Hell of a deal with Toronto he made a few years ago too. Worked hard at regionalizing the franchise(see Rochester and Toronto).Every once in a while I try to remind folks that this is a business he's running. The business has to be healthy/profitable to be a stable business. He cares about winning but it is a business first.IMO he's been a hell of a CEO. Especially in a City with a national reputation as a dump(see Brady). He also was one of 2 owners who balked at the previous aggreement between the owners and the NFL. Turned out he was right because they tried to fix it last year. Again, great CEO.

I think we have a guy named Carrington who can fit the bill. Having Mario opposite of him will help him alot. I see Carrington making plenty of plays this season. Come on, Kyle and Marcel in the middle and Mario on the other side drawing a TE/RB chip?!? Carrington will see plenty of 1 0n 1's. Don't forget Kelsay excells with his hand on the ground, not as an OLB. He's gonna produce when he's in there also. Man, I can't wait for the season to start!

Hey now, we're not all guilty by association.

What wall?!?!?!?

Yes. I get why you ask. He had trouble locating the ball when thrown his way, but he was always in position to make the play. If you notice, the throws were pretty much placed where only the receiver had a chance. With enough time a QB can make a throw like that. With pressure, these throws will not be perfectly placed and McKelvin will have a better shot at an errant throw(low/wide/hurried) than a perfectly thrown ball. IMO

Once they got Jonathan JosephWade Phillips, things changed.

Guys, correct me if I'm wrong, but his whole contract is gauranteed. We gain nothing by cutting him. I've seen this posted here a few times. If correct, stop bringing this up. If he gets cut, it's cuz he can't play. Not for the money.

My vote is J. Byrd for the Pro Bowl with a better pass rush.

I've been saying all along that our DB's aren't bad, they just have no pass rush to help. Lets's see what happens this season. I think with a healthy D, we can duplicate the turnovers we had early last year. We have ball hawks and now hopefully some chances to show it. Thoughts?

IMO Bell has played better than average when he is in. Injuries happen and cannot be predicted.If he is a good player, and I think he is, sign him. I said good, not great. If you can find a better option right now get him, but if not we sure could use him. Keep our good players and add from there.

Funny how being able to type an opinion makes people feel they are so much of an expert that they feel the need to resort to name-calling. Just like all those bloggers who think they know it all. Only a truly ignorant person would try to act like he/she knows it all. I mean really, where do you get off calling someone ignorant? We need a receiver, don't we? (AKA LAME REPLY) (GO TO THE JETS SITE OR SOMEWHERE ELSE) Damn, I'm so defensive today!!

I like my women like I like my coffee.

DREAM TEAM !!!!!!

You know, there is such a thing as beating a dead horse. Give it a break. Unless you're 13 yrs old. loser Pretty strong statement. I suppose you are the best at what you do for a living.I assume you got an award for being the best at it. If not, does that make you a loser? I live in Fl, but was born and raised in Buff. I take exception to people calling US(Bills)LOSERS.If you don't like it, find another team. And instead of loser , you can be a winner. Make me

What else can they do?!? Get him drunk and get him to sign. :beer: :beer: :beer: :beer: :beer:

Pssst hiiisss, Sounds like a cat fight to me.Maybe this will help:

I have an idea. Why don't you start your own thread " Why the Bills are NOT moving in the right direction." ?

Special Team players are important too.

with tears rolling down, that was funny!!!
