Hey, Kelvin Sheppard isn't some food crazed freak! He is a sweet man. (Sheppard drives by in ice cream truck) Oh that's Raspberry!

Just saw this while checking out the transcript(At the bottom of the page) where Kelvin Sheppard says the Bills defense is "almost identical that I ran at at LSU." I am not familiar with college ball but LSU is one of the better defensive teams I do believe. Can the Bills replicate their success? Does LSU have consistent success against pro-style offenses in college? Any LSU fans want to chime in be most appreciated.

While it is nice when you hear about the Bills, so often you hear lines from idiots about the "two great tight ends they have up there: Scott Chandler and David Nelson!" Or something like, "Fred Jackson is over 30 he can't play anymore, Spiller will win the job by week three he is the second coming of speed jesus!" At this point in the season what can you say? The media has a very small amount of tape to work with on each team, they just can't come up with much. No new stats yet, no unheralded team starting 3-0 and knocking off the division's best team for the first time in nearly ten years (see what I did there?). All this equals media time spent on teams that are high profile and with issues outside of playing games. people are following the Jests because they are waiting for them to implode. Brees vs Commissioner? That is a good story, like Luke Skywalker (aren't you a little short to be a storm trooper?) vs Moff Tarkin (Are Star Wars references dated yet?). Give it time, wait till a few preseason games go down, a couple of juicy injuries (RG3, Christain Ponder, Roethlisberger and the other guy) and you'll be hearing new stories in no time.

Spiller Video at 2:30, I love that run against Miami. At that game last year and had an awesome time in Hammer's Lot. Not the best ending for the game but had a lot of fun as I always do at the Ralph. I hadn't seen that Mark Anderson clip before it has me excited to see this d-line in action. Thanks for posting the video for the third time and the Spiller one too.

I am not an expert but in reply I would point out the relative motion of the two players in the play. PT coming out of the backfield with his head turned back towards Brees catches the ball and turns his head less than a second before the hit. You can see PT trying to get low for the hit but he doesn't have enough time. Donte has a much different path to the ball. He moved forward from his position on the goal line and accelerated towards the receiver after the catch was made without having to turn his head or move slowly to receive. That is how I see PT getting hurt whereas Donte does not. It is clear though that PT was knocked out and left the game with a concussion.

It should also be pointed out that for all of donte's and the 49er's bitching about bounties and hurting opposing players it was donte's hit on Pierre Thomas on the Saint's fist drive that knocked PT out of the game and removed the Saint's running game from the equation the rest of the game. I am sure someone can find a clip of the hit, I don't feel like trying but as I recall Donte lowers his helmet into PT's and knocks the dude senseless on the field. This is not to call into question donte's actions, football is an inherently violent sport and the lowered helmet of donte was matched by the lowered helmet of PT, but it is pertinent to tell that scrawny little b-tard to shut his mouth when he complains about the saints. And I found it: Easily could have been a defenseless receiver call as PT had just turned his head around after getting the ball. Again, not that I agree with legislating out the violence but it seems a questionable case.

I agree with Fitz not good. Bring back Losman! I threw up a little as I wrote it.

i am in brooklyn and would love to go and if cheap seats become available i will

Vick is the superior player hands down. I like Fitz, think the team can do well with Fitz, but given the chance to start Vick over Fitz I would go with Vick every time. If it was a question of starting one or the other over a season than Vick's injury history comes into play but in terms of quarterbackiness it is Vick by a solid mile.

definitely a good time for Bills reading and interesting.

I don't, Rochester #1!

You can always try and find people on the boards here. Your best bet is to use friends and family to fill out those extra spots. You will run into the problem of the absent player but the more people you try out the more likely you'll find one who will be a great league member. I don't know how old your kids are but maybe they have friends who'd like to play in the league? That way, trash talk can be had between friends but monitored by an adult.

The O-line depth of the Steelers and the Bears? Is he serious? Didn't the Bears give up the most sacks last year and then add little to the O-line? Doesn't Roethlisberger get sacked all the time and the Steelers Run game is no good anymore? Anyone catch that Jonathan Scott is a part of this depth?

Bennett sounds great! Nick Barnett is one of my favorites; wish he would be there

All the players were part of a tandem or had shortened seasons. Fred was awesome last year and mehopes he is even better this year.

It was a monorail!

Great example of Buffalo small market = less recognition. Matt Forte in the large Chicago market was on pace for a similar season to freddie, in my opinion they are about equal in terms of skill and possible production. MJD led the league in yardage last year but didn't even get a spot. Fan voting is crazy popularity contest. Amazing that Bills got a spot, an example of the increased exposure that came from signing Mario Williams. Side question: With the growth of Fantasy Football is any team really an unknown among many football fans? Freddie was a top scorer in my fantasy leagues as he was in most until his injury, could this have increased his exposure? Is any team a small market team anymore?

Better that one innocent man be jailed than ten guilty men go free. In all seriousness though, way to go Mr. Banks. Good Luck to you in whatever you choose to do next as long as it is in the NFC.

After losing numerous starters to injury as well.

The Bills have been doing this the past two seasons. Bryan Scott, Jarius Byrd and George Wilson all played in this defense for the Bills last year. I assume Kirwan didn't mention the Bills because they typically stink against the Patriots. However, in the win last year, two brady picks came out of this formation I believe with Scott and Wilson snagging one of Brady's throws.

Belicheat called the TO. when fred was ruled down at the one the clock would have restarted. I think belicheat was pissed about the 8 seconds that were burned during the replay. the play was over at 1:51 and the clock was stopped at 1:43. Belicheat had to take that second TO to stop the clock from restarting and try and preserve time. Ganonn was just really confused.

I am not on Madden or have a PS3 but if I did you would be my hero right now uncle flap. I extend much respect to you for helping people find this stuff. A bump earned by helping others is the best kind of bump.

Other than Tebow and Sanchez of course http://www.nfl.com/videos/nfl-network-total-access/09000d5d8292c5c5/Most-intriguing-storyline-in-AFC-East?module=HP11_content_stream

Maybe you want to sit in the shadows forever and have a bunch of lovable losers as a team but I don't. trade the first round picks for the next three years. How often do the Bills sign anyone in the first round who isn't a bust? I mean seriously, cut whomever is necessary and package the draft picks and get this man. Pay him what he wants and we can win. Not just a playoff spot, not a division title, but be legitimate Super bowl contenders. If the Bills did pull this off you can run off and enjoy watching the St. Louis Rams fail repeatedly or some such ****.

I can't believe people wold say no too! They don't want to win or something? I would trade the entire team for Brees and then get a bunch of scrubs. Brees as a me first type player? Are you all crazy?!? He saved a franchise that was desperate to skip town, he won a super bowl for a team that had never played a playoff game in their own stadium! He is an honest to God good person and an ultimate competitor. If there was any chance, any at all to swing this trade Nix should leap at it.
