  1. Actually we have question marks at all the three coordinator position. If anything I will give Hackett a pass as he had pretty much an empty tank to work with last year with the QB door constantly revolving and zero production from the WR position. Schwartz needs to show that he can plug the Running holes. Spikes and Preston are going to be key here. Crossman had one of the worst units. Even the recent news that our KR were asked to kneel down if 1/2 way into the endzone is a POOOR scheme. You will never win if you don't even try!!! Are you assuming that last year EJ struggled with his accuracy because he was not getting the protection upfront. I thought the line gave him enough protection; he simply overthrew the long ball consistently.
  2. It also shows that this team has the talent. With right coaching and a above average offense, this team can make the playoffs.
  3. But we still finished #28 against the Run.,..DTs are supposed to stop the Ball Carrier !
  4. And I hope this scouting also know that they have their Franchise QB in EJ. This year is going to be on EJ to put it all together. He doesn't have to do it all by himself; just needs to be able to execute. Go Bills!
  5. TV > Stadium as Technology continues to improve... All Pros (When watching on a big screen in your basement with wonderful surround sound) - Get to watch with your best friends and family without paying for each one of them - Beer costs 20% of what you pay at the stadium (and that too for very limited crap) - Anything else that you would buy would cost 10% at your local grocery store. - Go out and play with your kids once the game is done, instead of sitting in a parking lot or thruway or beltway for the next two hours. The "Whole field view" is way over rated. The actual play is on for 2-3 seconds and very few people usually spot "holes" and open WRs. You can hardly see where the ball is, especially when you sitting way up in the upper decks. - Cold Weather. Horrible! Horrible! What you get for being at the stadium: - A chance to meet players as they enter/leave stadium and get autographs - To be part of (always emotional) renderings of National Anthems. - To be able to watch the half-time shows by Celebrities.
  6. Nope. Matt Cassell had a pretty average to poor career at KC. Who else has gone on to be a starting QB in the NFL from that stable....ZERO.
  7. You never know. Even in NE, Brady was buried behind Drew Bledsoe on the depth chart. Brady was determined to be successful and wrest the starting position. If Drew never gets hurt, NE would have found it hard to replace him a 6th Rd draft pick. Same way, considering that RJ was getting injured all the time, it might have opened the way for Brady to take charge and keep the position. Remember that at that time we still had an awesome defense and we could have won with Mr. Clutch.
  8. Disagree. If you have a fierce pass rush, the QB is not planting his feet and throwing, but running for their lives. You can win balls games with a great front 7. Just ask Tom Brady./
  9. The NFL is more likely to put a team in London first before Tornoto.
  10. He did get injured and was out for most of the season opening the door for Hughes to have a career year.
  11. I doubt it. There are two WRs in front of him who are going to get a lot more touches. My vote is for EJ Manuel. This team needs him to step up. He is the most important cog in this wheel for us to be successful.
  12. I am sad the Bills are not opening the position for competition. I think with Vick behind him, Geno is going to become a better QB. The fear of losing your job will pay dividends for Geno.
  13. TBC, I thought Marrone had repeatedly told us that every player practices with the mindset that he is the starter and he will be ready if he gets the call....If Marrone had coached them that way,then we should not have missed a beat
  14. But given that he was a rookie undrafted QB, the coach made a gutsy call to let his QB wing it instead of running the ball as the defense would have expected it. Also, it was a fluke play from KC side as the defensive player was actually beat and lucked out.
  15. The drafting of Spiller signaled the end of Lynch. The Bills just couldn't find the partner on draft day. They eventually had to hang on to him for months before Seattle plucked him
  16. There is no "gimme" win in the NFL. Every opponent has an equal chance of winning against us and yes we should be worried about all the 13 opponents that we will face.
  17. We did have a owner who grew up in Detroit and lived in Florida (partially)....Not far fetched!! and kept the team in Buffalo.
  18. Why. And if the player has not signed sufficient waivers, HIPAA would definitely prevent the Bills from disclosing anything!
  19. And three stumps with two bails on each side of the wicket. I do agree that it hinders learning when you know something close too well. When I started watching baseball, I would do the same....try to relate it to something in cricket and it just never worked... One of the interesting one was: In Baseball, when a hitter hits the ball, he throws his bat and runs...In Cricket, the player actually uses the bat to stretch himself to complete the run. When I played office softball, I would always run with the bat and get laughed at!
  20. Only 66 days to the HOF pre-season game where our Beloved Bills will honor Andre Reed to the Hall.
  21. Like how MLB was confusing to me about 25 years ago!
  22. +1, especially the IPL. Cricket after a century of playing 5 day games and over 30 years of 1-day cricket have figured out the formula that a 3hour game sells on TV. The IPL plays the T20 version of the game that runs for about 3 hours. It is far more exciting and action packed than baseball (for the T20) and some brilliant hitting and catching occurs. If you haven't seen IPL highlights you can check it out on YouTube.
  23. Unless EJ can beat by throwing over the top accurately, the safeties are going to cheat by putting 8 or 9 in the box and stop the run.
