  1. Does anybody realize that EVERY quarterback on our roster was drafted in the seventh round? Ryan Fitzpatrick, Tyler Thigpen, Levi Brown I like the Thigpen signing, but it really shows how the Bills are satisfied to go dumpster diving for the NFL's most important position.

  5. Quit moving teams. LA has failed with 2 franchises in the past. Toronto can't fill the stadium for ONE game a year. If these cities absolutely HAVE to get an NFL team - expand.

  7. Living in St. Louis, Sunday Ticket is the only way I have to watch the Bills every year. I just can't watch the Rams every week...but the prices are getting way out of line. I might have to become a big fan of Sam Bradford.

  9. Wide receiver is one of the only positions I think we are good on, along with running back and defensive back. So I disagree completely. We have a solid veteran quarterback, but we still need someone elite to become a regular Super Bowl contender. That's a huge puzzle piece still missing. We are solid on the interior of our offensive line, but extremely weak at both tackle positions. Another large puzzle piece. Our tight ends could definitely use a major upgrade. There's another one, although it depends on the offense Gailey settles on. Dareus makes the defensive line a lot better, but we could use some better players at the end positions. There's another puzzle piece or two. Linebacker was possibly our weakest spot last year. IF Merriman regains old form, IF Poz is re-signed, IF Sheppard becomes a solid starter, then we are a little closer. But we likely need a few more contributors.
  10. Ha, ha...yeah.

    I actually have a sweatshirt with a picture of a buffalo cooking a dolphin in a boiling pot. People give me dirty looks all the time and my wife hates it, but I think it's hilarious.

  11. How many fans would you turn off in the process? I, for one, would never watch professional football again. To answer your question: We both decide how much he gets paid to mow my lawn. I can offer him $10 to do it. He can accept that or ask for more. That is his decision. If I refuse to pay him what he's worth, I take the risk of having someone else do a crappy job. That's my decision. There is always give and take. The NFL is not just popular because football is a cool sport. If that was true, the NFL wouldn't have any advantage over the CFL, USFL, Arena League, XFL, whatever... One of the reason it's popular is because of the TALENT. We pay to watch Peyton Manning, Drew Brees, Aaron Rogers throw the ball. Not some bum off the street that can't hit the broadside of a barn. We pay to watch Adrien Peterson, Chris Johnson run the ball. Not some guy with half the speed and no moves. Maybe the players are selfish, greedy and don't appreciate what they have. I'm sure quite a few are. But the reason they get paid so much money is because WE are willing to fork out that kind of money to be entertained. It's called supply and demand. Fans need to stop being jealous of what the players have. Having millions of dollars and fame isn't everything. Instead, we need to start appreciating that football players are around to entertain us.
  12. Why is it that a young Bills quarterback (JP Losman, Trent Edwards) can play terrible for 2-3 years, win hardly any games.... and so many Bills fans claim "we just haven't given them enough time." They get all the excuses in the world. Bad coaching, weak play calling, poor offensive line, no weapons, etc. But when another team has a young quarterback like Sanchez, who is still having growing pains... Bills fans talk about how bad the guy is? Sanchez has more talent than any Bills quarterback since Drew Bledsoe. He's won more games than any Bills quarterback since Doug Flutie.
  13. Exactly. If it was a secret, why did they tell the media about it?
  14. If your only wardrobe options are: - A 20 year old Jim Kelly Jersey - A 15 year old Doug Flutie Jersey - A 10 year old Drew Bledsoe Jersey - A 10 year old Takeo Spikes Jersey You might be a Bills fan.
  15. Someone needs to coach him on using punctuation.
  16. The first person that popped into my head was Bo Jackson. But I forgot about Sam Cowart for us. He was becoming an awesome player for us when he got hurt. I've always thought Patrick Willis reminded me of the way Cowart played. I was a kid in Philadelphia when Jerome Brown died. That was a real shame. They even released a song in the area called "Bring It Home For Jerome."
  17. Story link Includes highlights of both players at the bottom of the page.
  18. Yes. Most likely without Ralph, the Bills would have moved long ago. I get it. But I'm so tired of this being shoved down the throats of the people in Buffalo. Why can't Ralph get any blame? He gets to do whatever he wants with the front office, put a crappy product on the field year after year...and if the fans get frustrated and critical, we get the "the Bills are going to move" pulled on us. With the support this city has given the Bills, Ralph owes us. But instead of making WINNING his top effort, he's more interested in profit for his family. Nice for them. But bad for everyone that has been waiting almost 50 years for a Super Bowl. There are other owners in the league with the same "money first" philosophy (Arizona, Cincinnati for example). Fans of those teams are still waiting too. Ralph says we aren't a profitable market, but he really cares about keeping the team in Buffalo. Well, then why hasn't he spent the last few decades pushing for ways to keep the team in town after he dies?
  19. I think Pryor will be a better pro than Cam Newton. Wouldn't mind adding him at all.
  20. - If you get the urge to boo the dolphins when you visit an aquarium, you might be a Bills fan
  21. Ralph deserves credit for keeping the team in Buffalo, but little else. Throughout the Bills franchise history - outside of the 90's team built by Polian - the team has consistently been at the bottom of the league. We've had dozens of coaches, hundreds in the front office and thousands of players. But the only consistent has been Ralph Wilson. Of course, the one time Ralph found success (with Polian), he ended up firing the guy for personal reasons. Polian then went and built the Colts into a powerhouse.
  22. I grew up with the red helmets. But there is just as much history behind the white ones. I'm just excited to see if they are the same as the "leaked" version.
