But if you look at NFL.com it looks like he's excelling as he's leading the Vikes in total tackles (tackles + assists). Truth be told is Winfield is a guy who plays it safe CB (ie bend but don't break). As he'd rather see a guy catch the ball and then tackle him afterwards.

I keep reading how Mike is a bust, we blew that pick and we need to fix the offensive line. In hindsight who would you select?
I responded to a post like this awhile ago. I stand by my thoughts then and now. I felt back in 2002 and now that McKinnie would have been the better pick. However in retrospect, one guy that I feel might have been worthy of our selection was DT John Henderson. As he might be as good if not better then Sam Adams is now. Of course it still give us a hole on the O-line unless we took someone like LeCharles Bentley with our 2nd Round pick to play C and could of let Teague play at LT. The question would remain if we would still trade up would we still take Denney or possibly a WR like A. Bryant, A. Randle El, D. Branch? Or possibly not traded up and end up with a WR Cliff Russell in Round 3 and a DE like Alex Brown in Round 4.

Tell me who is the man who has yet to punch it in from the 3, 2 and 1 yard line? Who's the man who let a very catchable ball go through his hands for an interception? Who can't keep his balance to save his life?
Shaft! err I mean Travis.
I'm all for seeing Willis getting more looks specifically near the goal line. He excelled in the role all preseason but I still can't understand why Mularkely and co. haven't put him there yet this regular season.

I am a fan of Josh Reed. I like how he plays but unfortunately teams aren't afraid of him.
The two biggest plays of the game on offense came when Evans was in the game. The first one was where he drew the safety's away by going deep. This lead to a 36 yard pass to moulds. The 2nd play was the 60 yard bomb at the end of the game.
Evans can go over the middle, make the short passes and is a threat deep. Every team we faced probably scouted this guy this past draft. So they know what he can do.
The offense is struggling it is time for a change. Smash mouth football won't win you a championship.
Didn't the Giants beat us in Super Bowl XXV playing smash mouth football?
The truth is that Bledsoe has to find a reliable target outside of Moulds whether it be Reed or Evans or even Bobby Shaw.

Is that one of those fake helmets that someone earlier this year saw on e-bay?

I was listening to the pregame show last weekend and Brad Riter mentioned something to Jerry just before the name the player game and the contestants being from Two Bills Drive and everyone here hating him. I had a good chuckle out of it but Sullivan seemed unphased as don't think he replyed.

Another error missed, Beebe spent one season with the Carolina Panthers.

I don't think it's fair comparing Lindell to Vanderjagt or Andersen as both have played a majority of their careers in domes. (I think Lindell played in a dome as a rookie hence his great % but can't remember for sure when the Seahakws moved out of the dome). In terms of Vinitairi he's one of the best kickers in the league. While I am concerned with Lindell's accuracy, it's too easy to make him a scape goat for yesterday's loss. The offense and defense made quite a few mistakes yesterday that also lead to the defeat.

I'm sick and tired of talking about the Jax game, it makes me sick to my stomach. There is no one scapegoat no matter how you slice and dice it. Clements error wouldn't have been a big deal had Moulds not fumbled or if the offense converted from the 3 yard line.
The real question is: Can this team regroup and beat Oakland? How do you think we match up against them???
I'll be at the game.
Holla
As said in the preseason, if the offense can manage to score 17 points a game there's no reason we can't win every game this season. Oakland has two good cover CBs in Woodson and Buchannon and with BIG TED in the middle might have a good rushing defense which could spell troubles for the offense. If we're going to win Bledsoe needs to gain some faith with throwing to guys other then Eric Moulds or else it could be a long season.

Same thing happened in the Texans game last year, remember? D held the Texans all game, one long pass to Andre Johnson in the 4th Quarter, Clemens goes for the pick, GAME OVER.
I'll tell you something, folks - it's not about show-boating, or about me-firstness - I think it's even worse than that:
INCENTIVES.
Everyone in the entire stadium knew it was fourth-and-forever. You don't forget that kind of thing. Clemens saw an opportunity to get a pick, maybe a TD, and pad his stats and his contract. It infuriates me. I'M SICK OF IT.
Let's not forget if Clements doesn't go after the ball earlier in the game and get the pick we most likley not had the lead at the point in the game either. oYu can't have it two ways, everyone I am sure applauds Nate for his INT in the first half that lead to the Moulds TD but will then dump on him for doing the same thing later in the game. Now there's no telling for sure what Winfield would have done if he were in that situation but I have a feeling that Winfield would have been behind Smith and then just try to wrap him up with a tackle.
I know people will point to Winfield's two fumble recoveries yesterday but look at the play by play. The Vikings were up by 11 and 18 in the 4th Quarter which definately helps Winfield's situation where Clements was in a close game where any mistake will be greatly magnified (as seen by this posts and others).
I stand by that Clements is far and away a better CB then Winfield because he is a playmaker.

You could always Google a site for Lassie and use Photoshop and use Lassie's eyes as your dog's eyes
(see fake celebrity boob photos as example). -
I'd go with Watts, as I think he beat out Lelie as the Broncos #2 WR (you might want to check this to confirm though). Not to mention Plummer seemed to favor going to him against us in the preseason which could mean he could have a big year. Evans and Clayton seem to be stuck behind veterans and might get a catch or two at most per game unless someone goes down with an injury.

As one who's been touting St Pierre since the Brown injury, I'd stick with Matthews as my 2nd string QB. I wouldn't mind St Pierre as a 3rd string or practice squad QB though.

Any chance Spoon was cut with Chris DISHman?

I have not lived in Buffalo since 1988, but I do remember Susan Banks was quite the looker in her day. Is she still on in Buffalo. I think last time I was home, I saw her on the tele, and she looked as fetching as ever. Classy, beautiful, and a good reporter. Down here in Austin, the local news personalities are horrible. Lots of hotties, but terrible anchors/reporters...
Banks is still around. see her Channel 7 profile here.

The Giants released a Center/Guard by the name of Omar Smith that might draw the Bills interest and I would welcome over Pucillo. Another name that caught my eye was DE Mark Word of the Browns, who's collected 12 sacks over the past two seasons.

Most Rochesterians should know who I am talking about. She does the weekend newscasts for NBC in Rochester. I think she is one hell of a cute girl. Depressing news stories are not as depressing when she is on.
My wife always knows when she is on. I turn on the news and if it's her, I give a big Ohh yeahhhh!!! Then I get the look, even though my wife agrees with me and says she is pretty.
Just once, that's all.
Buffalo's got a cute female reporter or two. My personal favorite is Jodi Johnston, who ironically enough also works for the NBC affiliate. You'll need to scroll down to find her http://www.wgrz.com/bios/default.aspx

Hell Evans didn't show to be better then Sam Aiken. I definately start Reed and put Evans in on 3 WR sets but give Bobby Shaw a nod too. As to me that first drive against Detroit showed what this offense should be. A slow methodical move the chains offense.Yes, it's nice to have someone like Evans who could take it to the house if gets in the open field but until he can prove to be a guy that get seperation and catch the ball consistantly I say meet the benc Lee. I was also mildly surprised we didn't see Evans used in the return game. I know he wasn't much of a returner at Wisconsin but this is the NFL, if you're not starting you should be on special teams IMHO.

I'd have to redig up his combine numbers but he might not have the strength to play tackle. Not to mention he has to learn the position. I'm sure another team might give him another look but I have a feeling Peters will never have much of an NFL career as he is a man without a position.
(OT) How did you find this board?

I honestly can not remember yet I've been online since 1996/1997. Like many have said I started out posting for the longest time at Hyper Bills at the Rochester D&C website. I usually ended up fighting with John P and Neeraj on who the Bills should draft or sign in free agency.
Of course I also ran the infamous Flutie Haters (under the name Buffmaniac) website and put up the message board over there soon after (the site was made hours after Doug signed with the Bills in 1998). Yet our message board came sometime later. I'm pretty sure it was still in 1998 but I could be wrong. All I remember from that board was telling people the (I think they were all Flutie Flakes minus one or two haters) what an egocentric P.O.S Doug was but at the time no one seemed to care or thought I was nuts.
Yet I remember posting here and at the Sabres board under Trader Jack for I don't know how long. The first post I can remember posting at the Wall was predicting the Bills would sign Travis Brown after he was cut by Seattle though I know I've been on The Wall for more then 3 years. Maybe it's just I remember that post as I especially remember giving out detailed info on Brown when no one else had a clue on who he was and then someone complimenting my prediction.
