New Orleans really went downhill the year after he left.

The Bills never should have "fired" him.

I am glad she put him in his place. He always finds the cloud in the silver lining.

This all begs the question - is there a QB coming out that is worth the 8th pick in the draft (or picks 1-8 for that matter)?

I may be in the minority on the board (at least of those who post), but I want the Bills to keep Buddy.

As I am sure many of you know, Gruden's wife is from Tennessee. If we are competing with them, that would be something we would have to overcome.

Merry Christmas

You are much smarter than I am. What a waste of time. It is hard to believe that it has been so long since we were good. I should give up the season tickets (especially since I am way down here in Miami), but I know that I probably will not.

Don't feel bad, I got carried away as well. That is why it hurts even more. I also thought that our defense was going to dominate. It has gotten so bad, I did something I never do - I turned the game off after they scored the first TD in the second half. I figured that I had better things to do than torture myself.

For some reason, this list reminded me of the following scene from Ted: Ted: White trash name, guess. John: Mandi? Ted: No. John: Marilyn? Ted: No. John: Brittany? Ted: No. John: Tiffany? Ted: No. John: Candice? Ted: No. John: Don’t !@#$ with me on this, I know this ****. Ted: Do you see me !@#$ing with you? I’m completely serious. John: OK, speed round, I’m gonna rattle off some names and when I hit it, !@#$ing buzz it. Ted: You do it, I will tell you. John: You got me? Ted: Yeah. John: Alright Brandi, Heather, Channing, Briana, Amber, Sabrina, Melody, Dakota, Sierra, Vandi, Crystal, Samantha, Autumn, Ruby, Taylor, Tara, Tammy, Laura, Shelly and Shantelle? Courtney, Misty, Jenny, Christa, Mindy, Noel, Shelby, Trina, Reba, Cassandra, Nicki, Kelsy, Shaunna, Jolene, Earlie, Claudia, Savannah, Cassie, Dolly, Kendra, Callie, Khloe, Devon, Emmylou, !@#$ing Becky? Ted: Nope. John: Wait, was it any one of those names with a Lyn after it? Ted: YES! John: OK, Brandy Lyn, Heather Lyn… Ted: Tammy Lyn. John: !@#$!

I ended up getting a Lexus RX450h after many months of thinking about what to get. We have two boys. I had been driving an SUV, a Honda Pilot, and loved that for its versatility and that it was the most reliable car I have ever had. It had almost 99k miles on it so I thought that it would be a good idea to get a new car given the rates and the fact that dealers seem to be fairly motivated in general and at this time of year. I have had the car for 8 days now. It drives great, has plenty of bells and whistles, and gets great mileage for a SUV (one day last week, I got 30 mpg). The only thing to keep in mind is that it does not have the load or towing capacity as a typical SUV. Other than that, it is a great car. Consumer Reports rates it very highly.

Slightly off topic - I just got a new car and financed with PenFed. They are offering 1.49% financing. If you are thinking of getting a car, you may want to consider them or at least use their rates to get a better rate with the dealer.

About the same odds . . . .

I like George, but he has not had a good year. In addition to the dropped INTs, he has been poor in coverage. I wonder if he will be on the team next year. If he is, he probably will end up being a back up.

Did Buddy draft Maybin? Is Buddy responsible for what happened before him? It may not show in the record yet, but I do believe the roster is stronger than it was before he arrived. We still have some spots to fill, but I never expected that he would be able to complete the job yet.

As someone else posted, Byrd is a football player pure and simple and has a knack for the ball. We need more Byrds on this team not fewer. We need to re-sign this guy. There is no question about that.

Reid needs a break from both coaching and Philadelphia sports fans and media.

It should be more a place for kids and families than for drunken idiots.

Great work. Thank you.

Well said. Fitz probably had even less time than that. This amply illustrates just how difficult it is to be an NFL QB. Regardless of the analysis (and the constant bitching and moaning of the keyboard jockeys on WGR and the News), I really wanted that one. I am beginning to hate the freaking Patriots as much as I hated the Dolphins in the 1970's, 80's, and 90's.

I am not ready to give up on Chan. If there were an opening, I would love Wade as HC. The Bills never should have fired him.

Good post.

The refs probably would have flagged us for pass interference before we kicked off.

I agree but it is funny how so many (especially on GR) were bitching and moaning that we did not throw to the end zone last week.

. . . and the refs would have penalized them by ordering an immediate execution. . . . But no less true.
