  1. We are so loaded on offense right now. It's an impressive group for sure.
  2. Very true but that concerns me more than makes me feel better that he should definitely be chosen over EJ. I'm not saying you disagree with that - just thought I'd comment on the flip side of that inexperience. I also realize that NFL coaches should know much better than me and I'll trust they pick the guy that is deserving or that they see the most potential to run this team in.
  3. I watched the game again last night too. Kujo looked good - but the stand out in run blocking far and away was Miller. Miller should cause every Bills fan to stare out at at nothing with a grin on our face so people are saying "whats he looking at and grinning about"?
  4. You're guaranteeing something that many people already agree with.
  5. I'd say no about the jersey part but I'd think the long hair has to effect your play.
  6. I am an EJ supporter but have had to back off lately and realize he's not the guy. The two bad throws were so bad for two reasons - one they were just miserable throws coming off scrambling out of trouble (the one to Lewis that wasn't close and the one to O'Leary that fell terribly short) and the second reason is it's what he needs to be his strength. He scrambles beautifully rolls out and just isn't close to two wide open receivers. It's so frustrating because if he makes those throws it thrusts him into the conversation - conversely it IMO totally removes him from it. Crucial mistakes to his career.
  7. That would be interesting for sure. What would you give / what do you think it would take to get him?
  8. We are going to embarrass this team I'm watching right now.
  9. I hear similar thoughts on this - maybe not every round - but drafting a QB every year comes up often. How in the world would you propose to evaluate if a QB hits in this scenario?
  10. I know the topic of our QB's and or situation going forward gets discussed constantly - but what is your solution? I'd like the Bills to trade for Zac Dysert in Denver before the start of this season. He's an ERFA which I believe as long as he's tendered a minimum contract offer by Denver he has to sign that deal for the 2016 season. I'd be willing to give up a 4th round draft pick to get him and possibly a player too.
  11. I bet he thinks we'd be real good if we had our QB situation figured out.
  12. Except EJ got us picks when we traded down - we got Kiko and Gragg
  13. Who is the picture of in your avatar? Looks familiar but can't make it out.
  14. It seems appropriate to reward Astro for his efforts and I know many have made mention of it. Would someone familiar with go fund me be willing to set something up? Is this kosher? Astro would you be offended by something like that?
  15. Honestly. He went from doing shows in his home office to a QB whisperer? I like listening to Sal but he confuses commentary with being a football expert.
  16. IMO the local media really doesn't have a clue. They haven't been to other training camps throughout the league to compare how teams without a franchise QB with a great defense - are performing compared to ours. The national media picks up on the local media's vibe and uses that to derive their opinion - so that's hearsay. Another example - Rex said he was "impressed" with EJ after the scrimmage - but Sal on WGR said he wouldn't call it being impressed. Well who the heck is he to not be impressed when the head coach is?
  17. I thought JJ Watt was going to be another Aaron Schobel / Chris Kelsay type player - play hard, high motor, just a decent to good player. Oops
  18. To me "protect the shield" means make sure our customers are happy. The fine line is understanding what that is vs. injecting a power trip. I think we need to always remember that the CBA that gave Goodell this responsibility was fought for by the league and it's owners. It wasn't necessarily Goodell fighting for his own supremacy. I do think the next CBA will look much different - in terms of a more expansive pre-determined chart for fines lined up with specific offenses and anything outside of that chart will be some sort of committee decision.
  19. Except generally those from Syracuse.
  20. Yeah I mostly agree with your post. I couldn't find the highest paid QB in 2000 but I'd guess it's gone up at the same rate as the salary cap. What's really helped the QB's get paid today is the rookie cap and the descent of the cost for RB's - although I think CB's have made up that difference. For example in 2007 Reggie Bush and Larry Johnson were both making over 13 million. Peterson obviously tops that mark but no one from 2 down make over 10 million. 5 of the 7 top earning RB's of all time no longer play.
  21. I can't help but feel bad for this guy.
  22. I respect your opinion and I don't want to aggravate you - but just hear me out to hopefully give you something to think about or at least understand how someone on the other side thinks. God made us in his image - which means perfect and without flaw, so at this time there was no such thing as sin or negatives. The word of God talks about God loving mankind in a very special way in terms of other things he created. It was a perfect time. His love grew and he actually became jealous for our affection - he knew the only reason we loved him back was because we didn't have the option not to. That's when he had to create the most powerful thing he ever created and that was choice. So because he loved us so much in order to know we loved him back he had to invent the option of not choosing him knowing full well this would create massive issues for eternity. Ever since that moment he had to allow things to play out - including all the consequences that not choosing him has caused. If he just intervened when he wasn't asked to he'd be a fraud and I personally understand his position so clearly.
