Talk about a contradiction.

How are we doing this?

You can in NC.

I think it's Nassib too.

It's not his fault all he did was answer the phone? What about the part that he accepted the job and didn't do it?

Good god man stop being so overly dramatic. It's a fact we are playing more teams this year coming off bye's and Thursday night games.

Games in the NFL now are won by your ability pass and stop the pass.

Wow, then the OP brings up a legitimate gripe. I thought 6 would be high but guessed there would be a lot of teams with like 4. I'm not sure if it's done on purpose though.

How does this compare to every other team? Can you make a list of how many times each team plays a team coming off a mini or full bye? I bet it's higher than you think.

That's basically what I meant by "could you imagine someone picking our guy that we assumed would be there by trading down". I just didn't break it down like you did, which you did very well. If we have a QB rated at the top of our list, which I suspect we do, and he's there at 8 you have to pick him even if your gut tells you he'll likely still be there if you trade back.

Ok, I should have asked, are the majority of 5 years olds you know going around insulting people?

I agree. The Browns are so bad that they'll bring down the overall quality of play to an unwatchable level.

What 5 year old child do you know that goes around insulting people?

Trading up to get QB's has been happening. Can you imagine if someone did trade up in front of us and picked a QB that went on to have a great 12 year NFL career? Of course speculation would always be would that have been the guy the Bills would have picked anyway, but my point is the Bills can no longer be scared to be wrong. Pick a damn QB at 8 and lets go.

We are agreeing. Even if there was an RG3 and a Luck in this years draft at pick #8 with that many teams ahead of us that need a QB or would most assuredly take one to get a guy like them, we wouldn't have a shot. Unless we were willing to mortgage any opportunity to build other positions through the draft for several years. So we would be in a position to choose from the real good QB's anyway.

I think the Bills would entertain trading back but not as far back as some folks suggest. They won't risk losing Nassib who I believe they will take with their 1st round pick. If I'm wrong on Nassib it's only the player not the position, I believe they take a QB with their first pick. They need every pick they have so I don't think they will pick say a LB with their first pick to either have to trade picks to get back up or roll the dice that the QB of choice is there in the second. I can't remember who posted yesterday something to the effect "They can't continue worrying about being wrong on a QB. It's time to pick one and let's run with it"

I have no issues at all and I'm using IE.

Did you not capitalize Sir on purpose?

Nah. IMO we have among the best uniforms in the league now.

And it's exactly why I agreed with you. I'ts pretty clear to me that a culture change is happening quickly. I'm not saying this is something totally unique to Marrone, just simply saying it's going on. Heck our two free agent signees didn't even know about our playoff drought. I'm not trying to make too big of a deal about it but there's a positive buzz and I'm happy with it. Of course to sustain it we have to play well and win.

His wildcard might be Kevin Elliott.

I agree totally which is why I'll never loathe Gailey. Yes that wildcat at the most unopportune times drove me nuts but that defense was historically terrible. Gailey at least gave us a watchable offense which we hadn't had in years. Under Jauron I was doubting we'd get two first downs in a row. And lastly I agree that there is a lot of talent on this team and most certainly on that side of the ball.

I'll take Carolina

And you have Manuel going in the 3rd. How reasonable of you.
