I just like that we you hear our front office working, instead of why wouldn't we at least consider that player. It's like they do what makes sense. A lot of us were like why are we not going after Orton - then it turns out we were the whole time and did. We should sign Brandon Spikes - we did, we should sign Pepper Johnson, we did. etc etc etc

I still believe in EJ. I sincerely don't think he looked near as bad as most fans and Buffalo media portrayed.

I remember his name coming up quite a bit and I started thinking he could be a nice find. I would absolutely pick him up.

Should be "I just love an English major on a sports blog!!!!"

If it was I think they're wrong.

I really really really love soup.

You've been gone a while. This guy is the only poster I despise. He got hammered and faked getting better for a while. This is the real person.

What the hell are they doing?

My favorite QB the last several years. I'd take him immediately. Edit: Besides Luck. I thought he was the most physically talented QB besides luck to come out in a quite some time.

In, whew

Why do they have to be mutually exclusive?

I like it.

I agree

they are all competent. the only thing that saves this or any organization is a quarterback.

Yet we have a top 8 defense built by the draft as well as several free agents that chose to come here, and several that re-sign ed after their rookie contracts. Total BS!!!

Wait for what? There could be many expected reactions so why don't you just say what you mean?

Sounds like they are contributing to the economy.

I hate it for the young man. He's one that I thought eventually would do well and have a nice career. Unfortunately it never really got started. I'd take him in a minute if he gets cut.

Exactly right.

Exactly. If this theory is true there's no need to thank him or hate him. It's a theory I personally have subscribed to this entire journey.

I completely disagree. I think you're understating how physical the Bills are especially with the addition of Spikes.

Yeah the bottom line for me is we fans don't know what we're talking about by and large. I do respect the fan that is going to training camp and seeing more of the everyday play, but even then that fan isn't privy to the call room. We'd all be surprised at what little we know. To contradict myself it isn't totally out of the realm of possibility that coaches don't see things the fan does from 10,000 feet either.

But can't you see from the coaches perspective how risky that would be giving him those valuable reps when he hasn't deserved them? Then you're essentially taking away reps from the proven (at least to them) better player, and their now not getting better. I know it's easy to say "well they haven't shown anything so throw the other guy in there", well the fact is Thad and Tuel have shown something - that they are better than Dixon to their coaches.

in too

I just watched the latest episode of Real Sports with Bryant Gumbel. The opening segment is on Jon Dorenbos who played for the Bills for a couple seasons. If you get an opportunity DVR the episode as it's a real interesting piece relating to his personal tragedy and how magic helped him through it.
