  1. I wonder if losing Byrd changes our 9th pick. I was hoping to retain Byrd but if we didn't, franchise tag him then trade him to the browns for their late 1st round pick. Love Byrd but not sure why we can't make a deal with all our cap room
  2. we just have to make sure we bench EJ in place of Thad Lewis when we play the fins
  3. I thought this was a sarcastic post at first, but then quickly realized it was for real. I forget exactly the number but EJ had about 20 yards more passing than matthew Stafford after the first half...and Stafford played in 8 inches of snow. EJ has had one solid game...against the Jets. Luck took a 1-15 team to the playoffs in his first year and lost to the eventual superbowl champs. In 10 years you are going to look at this post and regret saying Luck and the Colts are not going anywhere. They solidify their defense and one more WR, they are set. The Bills have question marks at every position, and the record speaks of that
  4. Watched the Bills game on Sunday and was incredibly impressed with the offensive output, but I was also watching the Lions game with a buddy and remember him saying, "finally, they are putting reggie in the slot". With Freddy J not looking like he is losing a step, why not have some formations where we have CJ in the slot? Guy can catch, juke out anyone, and very few linebackers can keep up with him...if any. Now should we send him down the middle every time for him to get annihilated and injured...absolutely not. Should we have some formations where chandler blocks for more pass protection, EJ checks down and throws a short pass to CJ and sees what he does with it, absolutely. We have some potential playmakers on the outside but lets give the defenses one more thing to think about. Thoughts?
  5. EJ has a cannon of an arm and I think once he shakes off the rookie mistakes he will be the franchise QB, but as I watched the Pitt game, he unfortunately reminded me of Tebow. Looking down receivers and throwing an absolute dart straight to him. As far as leading receivers he did not do a very good job at all, something tebow also struggled with. At least four passes that I remember sailed over the WR heads toward the sideline. However there was one play where he converted a 3rd and 4 to Chris Gragg but the ball was aimed straight at his feet. Since I've never been a QB, is this something our QB coach can fix or we just stuck with the hope he gets better?
  6. James Hardy and Maybin. Thought Hardy was going to be the next James Loftin. Maybin the next 14+ sack man a year even if he was only used in special circumstances. Boy is my face red...
  7. Just like the wildcat...every new "craze" eventually dies with defenses figuring it out. Seattle (not as much), Pats, and NE are all undefeated just throwing or running the ball (conventionally) down the opponents throats. Washington and San Fran are 3-6.
  8. Welcome to the board and thanks for the insight. Both are young teams. I can see the score being 7-6 at half and then each time finds a groove in the second. Our cookie cutter defense should allow Cam to run wild if he chooses, or pass the ball, or jumping jacks...we can't get to him regardless. Wish you the best of luck on Sunday and thanks for the pic. Those girls are fantastic sir Go Bills!
  9. Not at all. Injury prone (already shown at Philly and Arizona), reminds me of check down Edwards, and we only need two QB's. The only reason I would keep him on is for veteran QB leadership. If EJ is in a slump...who does he go to besides a coach? I say see how the preseason goes then make a decision but Tuel looked pretty good yesterday
  10. I could use some help from the natives of Buffalo. This past weekend I bought 4 tickets to the home game vs the bengals. This will be my first trip ever up in the b-low and could use some help. What's a good hotel to stay at that is remotely close to the stadium since I don't know my way around the streets. Preferably a hotel that offers a shuttle service of some kind that could drop us off at the stadium. What's the best place to tailgate? Some directions/street address would be awesome. Go Bills!
  11. Eh...I sure hope so but looking at the schedule I do not see 10 wins... Even if we get three wins between the four games against the Dolphins and Jets...which is a big if. We play the browns who are the browns. Chiefs are usually a check but a completely re-built team. Playing the AFC North and NFC South...who are all very good. By the time we play J-Ville they will have a new QB at the helm so that may be a tossup. I see 5-11...get a playmaker on defense next year then we can talk about 9+ wins. Tough schedule for a rookie QB
  12. http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap1000000213472/article/new-england-patriots-will-add-rob-gronkowski-to-pup-list Starting preseason on pup. Hopefully won't be ready for the first game...hopefully
  13. My memory served me wrong. Thanks for the correction The 2003-2004 Patriots have the longest winning streak over the course of two seasons including playoffs. That is 21 games in a row. - This is what I was referring to http://wiki.answers.com/Q/Which_NFL_team_has_the_record_for_the_longest_winning_streak
  14. last time we beat New England in the opener they went on to win something crazy like 30 games straight with two trips to the superbowl...if memory serves. Love the optimism though. News broke today that Gronk will start the season on the PUP list and hernandez may have been involved in a murder plus the loss of welker, branch...I like our chances IF we can manage to put points on the board which is a big question mark.
  15. I'd love to have this guy on our team. CJ would have an even better year with him leading the way
  16. Had some time at work and was wondering on who we should start at QB. Crunched some numbers and was trying to think of who Kolb reminded me of, and unfortunately it was Trent Edwards... Kevin Kolb Career Games Played: 34 Completions: 449 Attempts: 755 Comp %: 59.5 Yards: 5,206 Avg: 6.9 TD: 28 INT: 25 Fumbles: 16 QB Rating: 78.9 Trent Edwards Career Games Played: 38 Completions: 563 Attempts: 929 Comp %: 60.6 Yards: 6,033 Avg: 6.49 TD: 26 INT: 30 Fumbles: 10 QB Rating: 75.5 Not sure about you all but I am tired of the dink and dunk passes. The avg yards per completion may be at the league average...no idea. I did look up Brees and over his career he has an avg of 7.47 yards per completion so I may be over reacting to the dink and dunk. I'm just hoping EJ turns out to be more like Brees with a career rating of 94.3, light years in front of these guys. With the changes to the offensive line, I feel we have to start either TJ or EJ to have the ability to scramble. With Wood being injury prone and the loss of Levitre, we may be looking at a Steeler type offensive line all year with changing personnel every other game. Thoughts? Go Bills!
  17. If we take it, I'd personally love it. I'm more concerned about the second round some teams just taking a shot at manuel, nassib, glennon, and others. I have a feeling barkley and g smith will be gone after 1. Teams picking before us in the second are Jacksonville (needs QB), Eagles (apparently are looking at QB), Arizona (needs QB), and Jets (if they don't take one in the first). Guess we will see.
  18. Being from Cincinnati I've been to all away games dressed out in Bills stuff. Even one game between the Bungals and Dolphins. I have a "bills" furry hat with horns sticking out that I wore to a Patriots away game. Turned out to be a hit. Never had an issue.
  19. http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap1000000150953/article/top-40-remaining-nfl-free-agents Above is a list of the major free agents left. I personally wouldn't mind getting Brandon Moore (since Levitre is gone) and sign Dasby or another LB. Since we've already shown our hand in the draft, let's fill a few holes now. Thoughts?
