  1. And why not. The last approach definitely did not work. Gailey came in with a bunch of scrubs from his Georgia Tech days.
  2. Agree. The yards/attempt provides a sense on his consistency, something he sorely lacked.
  3. +1. I don't want DeHaven anywhere near OBD. It is time for him to hang it up.
  4. What ? No footage of the Umpire and the Refs ?
  5. Oh. Don't worry. I am sure there will be enough folks who will complain that the Bills are not doing their due diligence and in a hurry to hire people who are unlikely to be hired by others..
  6. We need to build depth on the OL. When Wood went down, Young was just ok and it showed in those losses. When Wood came back, he again had a dominating game. +1. Wilson, Scott, Kelsay and Barnett need to go. In the name of Leaders, we are holding on to piss-poor players (and who free lance).
  7. I am sure CBS is going to charge for it. This would conflict with the programming rights for NFL (Gamepass).
  8. Jackson is a free agent and am not sure why he would want to re-sign with the Bills, if they are not going to provide him an opportunity to compete for a starting job. Fitz may stay back if he is willing to take a pay cut, if Doug gives him an opportunity to compete for a starting job with another veteran FA or rookie selected in the draft.
  9. I hope he does not garner too much attention and vaulting himself into the top 5. The real concern is that a majority of the teams ahead of us are QB Needy.
  10. And the fact that Wisenhunt has not yet been scooped in spite of 5 openings indicates that there are some serious red flags (Mainly in QB evaluation). I am glad we passed on him.
  11. I think the Bills have really surprised many with the way they have approached this whole process. It is lights out different from how it was three seasons ago. To see that the Bills were part of the same search as the Eagles, Chiefs, Browns, Cardinals and for them to come on top with the hire of a candidate that was hotly pursued by these teams gives me hope that the Bills may just have turned the corner.
  12. The thing that hit me the most: "The amazing thing to consider about Marrone is how he was willing to change both the offensive and defensive systems basically in season. That shows a coach who is open minded and willing to listen to the advice of staff. Finding coordinators who he trust but who also bring the same kind of open mindedness is more important than finding a coach who is married to any one system" This was one of the major downfall of Chan Gailey. He refused to experiment. When Fitz is was struggling, he was stubborn and adamant that Fitz gave him the best chance to win. He did not give Jackson a chance. Flexibility is the key in today's NFL and unfortunately Chan did not have that.
  13. The fact that they won those close games making the necessary plays at the end of the game is a testimony to their coaches preparing them to play a full 60 minutes and to the players for going out and actually making those plays. As Bills Parcells always said, your record is who you are.
  14. Should be "Rising Star" like the Sun.
  15. Or if they like him so much as the "gushing" in this article, they may just sit pat and take him at #8. http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap1000000123802/article/doug-marrone-can-solve-buffalo-bills-ryan-fitzpatrick-problem
  16. He also was responsible for the loss to the Titans and possibly
  17. Can that group beat Brady ?
  18. List of current Bills players who can start on any of the other 31 NFL teams. 1. C.J. Spiller. 2. Stevie Johnson 3. Scott Chandler 4. Levitre 5. Wood 6. Cordy Glenn That is 6 out of 11 starters. On Defense: 1. Mario Williams 2. Kyle Williams 3, Dareus Marcel 4. Gilmore 5. Byrd Special Teams: 1. Ryan Lindell 2. McKelvin That is 13 players out of 25 positions. We are about 50% talented roster in the NFL. The good teams are trending probably towards 75-80% and that is the difference. We sorely lack a starting QB, RT, WR on offense and the entire LB crew and a 2nd CB and a Strong Saftey to be successful. Another issue is that our role players have not come through. That is a big difference with the successful teams.
  19. Don't get me wrong. I am not saying that we should not draft these QBs coming out of college. I am just looking at alternate choices if we were not able to get the desired QB in this weak draft. I believe Tannehill, Weeden, Osweiler all were perceived as the "not sure" QBs prior to the draft, but still were taken by QB needy teams.
  20. The roster bonus is 3M for being on the team on March 1st and not 10M. His total salary for the season would be 11M including that 3M
  21. Everyone knew that Mallet is not going to come in and upseat Tom Brady. He was going to be their insurance policy in case Brady got injured (and he did not since the arrival of Mallet). Without real game time experience, you don't really know what you are going to get other than knowing that he is a strong arm QB that made all the throws in college. Since he was drafted in the 3rd round, I am sure Belichek is not going to give him away for anything less than a 3rd rounder. A 2nd rounder could be a possibility if Belichek creates a demand for him by dangling him in the trade block. The key is that in a Weak draft class, Mallet may be worth giving a 2nd or 3rd rounder rather than investing that on a Mike Glennon or other QBs that don't appear to have many weakness in their game.
  22. Flacco is not leaving Baltimore. If the Bills cannot get a franchise QB in FA or Draft, why do you think the Ravens will let him go and look for one in a non-existent vacuum.
  23. Sitting and Rotting on the Patriots Bench behind the Veteran Brady!! May be the Bills can give him a shot to do something different. It can't hurt as he is probably better than the scrubs that we have here.
  24. The Bledsoe and Mallet are two different situations. Mallett also will be a FA after the end of 2013 season. They could get something in return for him.
