  1. Our family knows Milano's family. He is a great kid and an absolute student of the game. Completely dedicated. He won't make the same mistakes. And he can fly, should be great in coverage and running sideline-to-sideline. The problem is that while he runs like a safety, he is also about the size of a large safety at 225 listed. I have been watching him closely given the connection (which also makes him my fave), and i think he could be really good, but right now he seems to lack the power to get off NFL blocks. If he had more time to build up his body I believe he would fix that, but it could be tough against the run right now. With his speed, however, he is capable of a lot of splash plays (picks, tackles behind line when he shoots the gap). If you watch his BC highlights you will see that. Good luck Matty!

  2. Gilmore getting killed in Boston Globe. Nice! Washington Post also has a pretty in-depth article saying the big problem with Cheats defense is that teams have figured out how to beat the hooded one's scheme (Google "Patriots Defense" and hit the news drop down). Not even the great Belichek is immune from press attack. What a day.

  3. I hope he keeps leaving plays on the field in favor of avoiding turnovers. We have a strong D that can be overcome if we turn it over and - I HATE turnovers. I have no problem with picking a QB if they are a good value when we pick. But we sure don't have to EJ again. And if TT fights him off we trade him for two picks. But TT is not merely a placeholder for some savior and it would be very naive to think that. Rooks with the best creds are a 50/50 crap shoot.

  4. I also know, without even looking, that Taylor is one of the winningest Bills quarterbacks in 55+ years of mostly suck. Without even looking I will guess he is 3rd in lifetime winning percentage among those with 20+ starts after Kelly and Kemp. Then who? Maybe Flutie is ahead? Can't think of who else would be (as much as I loved Fergie, I am sure he was sub-.500).

  5. We have a top 5 NFL quarterback in development before our very eyes. Well, maybe top 10 someday. But GOOD ENOUGH! Those picks are going to do a wonderful job solidifying the roster. Sorry haters. But you will enjoy a true #1 receiver, a couple LBs, a couple linemen. We will be BEAST!

     

    It is never too early to be happy about 3-1 and first place at the quarter pole!

  6. This is almost too good to be true! When I read the bit above about the Pats fan suggesting they "shoot Gilmore into the sun" I had to spit my coffee back in my cup to keep from choking. Can someone post that picture of Gilmore as a giant piece of burnt toast again? It was on Worthy's twitter - my daughter could not stop laughing.

     

    Family and friends - watch me, watch me ! Blahhhhha!

  7. Taylor is "serviceable" at best as a QB.

     

    His great strength is he doesn't turn the ball over. He is eminently upgradable and he will be upgraded after this season.

     

    Not sure why people don't get that.

     

    He was told to find another team to pay for last year by the Bills, effectively, and the NFL said "no thanks".

     

    So he can back on a discount.

     

    Not sure why people need to build him up into something he is not.

     

     

    This is so silly the TT supporters should not even get mad at anymore. He is the leader of this team. Absent a major reversal you will be seeing him again next year - with a vastly superior supporting cast.
