I agree with this. It's hard once you get among the elite teams for that particular year and they're seemingly at the height of their chemistry, etc. What should be easy is beating the Jaguars when you're insanely more talented.

Gosh you're taller than I remember.

Um Seattle vs Denver 2 years ago. 43-8

Sorry, I have already ruled it doesn't count.

We don't have the cap room to get players to fit the system and we're losing a very good pass rusher and probably Bradham. I think the defense could get better if the Ryan's implement their system and with a few low level signings - but we won't confuse better with the 2014 defense. I think the only chance this team breaks through is if the offense plays significantly better.

Doesn't count. Has to be in a Tyrod thread.

Just ok

Bolder than bold? With more marketing degrees than this country can ever use - that's what they come up with.

Forgive me if I believe Terry Pegula when he said ""We all just bought a team, our team, the Buffalo Bills. And the name of our team will not change; it will stay the Buffalo Bills." - over some hack writer.

I live in Charlotte and the fan base is definitively not as extreme as say Philly. I'd say they are worse in some cities over others - if worse means the harshness.

I hope the same thing - but I think you and I both know it's not likely he lasts much longer.

Reminds me of the Jackson Whaley situation. The Bills won both.

Well played. I do hope he helps in some way though - problem is we'll really never know either way. I guess he'll get some credit if we play good defense and get killed if we don't.

I like the first part of what you said because I do think it's possible owners did not like that he took money from another owner - even if he had the right to do so within his contract. But the spirit of his contract was that he could opt out if ownership changed during his contract - to protect him in the event they moved and he didn't want to be a part of that. He would never get that kind of contract again - so owners wouldn't fear that. If he quit again he wouldn't get paid.

I liked Whaley's response today on WGR. He said something to the effect - we didn't hire her for the attention it would bring, everything we do is because we think it makes us better.

That running style against these current day monsters on defense has to have significant effect on the body. Awareness is at an all time high and I think we'll see more and more players leave the game sooner than we anticipated.

From the root word Misoge often used for physical therapy.

Yeah that's what I said. You're right.

Here's another angle. In 2015 he missed the last 12 games - 2014 the last game - 2013 the last 5 games (although returned for the super bowl) - 2012 the last 3 games. If you have any hopes of making the playoffs there's a good chance Percy won't be there at the end for you. Again, the risk to me is getting dependent on him then he leaves so you're right back to having to work in other guys anyway. I'd rather start the year off working the other guys in.

You're point is very clear and has definite merit. The only thing that I'd add to the argument is that Harvin became so critical to our offense that when he left we were reeling. I'd argue he was too good. I'm not saying I wouldn't want him but I'd prefer Sammy be the focal point and the other WR's playing roles.

Happy Birthday young man. Your health is the most important thing.

We absolutely have to move on. For the simple fact that he was being depended on within our offense and he's not reliable. You can't put yourself in a position to have a guy be important and then not be there. It's just not worth it even though his skills when healthy are very very good.

I was chuckling. Yeah it really is. Hey if you're smart and can do the job - lets go.

I sure hope they hire a male as the new administrative assistant.

I would too. I have a gut feeling this kid will figure it out and he'll stay out of trouble.
