Exactly.

Very true. Absolutely, but it's not his game. He ranked 18th in 1st downs and receptions, 23rd in YAC, and 24th in yds/gm out of all WR's and TE's in the game last year. It's not elite but coupled with the consistency it's impressive.

Your argument is so well thought out. If you don't have all of the god given physical tools, you're a #2. Guess what makes you a #1 receiver? If your the best receiver on your team. He ranked 17th in yards last year among a list that includes tight ends. If you just say each team has 3 starting WR's and one TE, he ranks 17th out of 128 starters in the NFL. The simple math says if you're in the top 64 you're a number one, but you wouldn't understand that. But you just keep holding on to "physical attributes" as your argument.

I understand what you're saying but you can't limit the system to just heinous crimes.

Make sure you tell us which one you chose.

What if we had 52 players that practiced, studied, and worked out at his level?

You don't listen very well. Probably because you've spent way too much time falling in love with a punter. I never said he wasn't good or that he never did anything. I just think if you're a punter and can't do very much about the effectual "culture" of a team because a punter is so seperated from it, than you should shut your mouth. In other words I think it's BS to give your opinion about culture on a football team when you're a punter.

He's definitely right about about our culture but at the end of the day he's a punter and really needs to shut his trap. They don't practice with the team and are off in their own little world. When's the last time you heard about a punters will to win? Hey Moorman, Buffalo loved you and had almost always great things to say about you. Now how about shut your damn mouth. If he was so worried about our culture of losing why didn't he do more about it? That's because he was a punter.

This is why we need a gay athlete to save the NFL.

I can't wait until Sanchez forces them to go with Geno and then he shows how terrible I believe he's going to be.

Very interesting. Sign Manuel and Byrd then concentrate on veteran free agents. I had also totally forgotten that Byrd was good until that video reminded me.

"Step back from the ledge people"??? I've read every comment and most people are very much ok with his comments.

There's a lot of room between "wait and see" and doing "cartwheels".

What a complete idiot.

How is being a competitor, loving the game of football and being on a football team worse than not being on a football team?

Guess that ends that. Good work.

That does look pretty amazing. Winning will be the catapult to the Bills getting or not getting a stadium.

No one can blame you for your decision to temper your enthusiasm and we all know and understand the reasons why. Like I said before, in reality our emotions have no effect on whether the team moves forward or not. But I want to convince you to get excited. If not for any other reason - E.J. Manuel. We drafted a QB fellow Bills fan and he passes the eye test. This is something very unusual to get excited about unlike the past. The unknown of Edwards was the last time I had the opportunity to fathom a franchise QB. I never thought that guy was Fitz. But we know have a new lease on excitement with Manuel. For me E.J. is the primary reason but here's why I'm particularly ecstatic; All the great QB's in the league seem to have a great relationship with their head coach. Marrone seems like the ideal coach to build relationships with players. I believe he commands respect and the players will fear him a little but will also love him. I also believe E.J. is the relationship type player. Then the secondary reasons for my renewed enthusiasm is Pettine, the new wide receivers along with Stevie, our great running game, and the young Hackett.

We all want them to "show us". I guess it's just a matter of what do you want to do in the meantime and I respect both ways. Optimism doesn't effect anything nor does not getting excited until/if it happens.

Does anyone think he can beat out Da'Rick? Then we would have Stevie, Brad Smith, a 2nd year player , and 3 rookies. Or does Brad Smith get cut? Then we would have Stevie, Graham, and 4 Rookies (including Da'Rick). Tough call right now. Maybe they he could take one of the TE's roster spot, but it would be hard to start the season with only 2 true tight ends.

We are all eagerly anticipating EJ, but let's take it easy a little bit.

I don't think he'll ever get another chance after this. I started to feel sad for the kid but really I'm glad for the hard working young man that is putting the time in that's going to get his roster spot wherever that is.

I do think EJ gets the ball out of his hands quickly but this video appears to be in fast forward mode making everything appear faster. The other thing I really like about EJ's throwing is he's tall and throws tall.

It's the second day of rookie camp. And how do you know he's "not catching on"? Did you see him out there?
