  1. I totally agree. This was a GREAT move by TD, not just a good move. Peerless was a free agent. We were going to get ZERO. TD made a calculated gamble that he could get a first rounder for PP and it worked. He got back the 1st rounder he gave up for DB. Now, at that point in the draft I think it was a solid move to pick McGahee. I'd love to hear what other person we should have taken at that pick that is making a big impact with their team right now. Anyone? Bueller? Anyone? RunTheBall
  2. There's a lot of interesting info in there. Thanks. Maybe Tasker will recognize that he doesn't have to be anti-Bills on the air to be objective. RunTheBall
  3. We're going to win 1 or 2 more games and thats it. We are the worst team in the league. Not only record wise, but we have no excuses. We just suck. At least Miami can say their team was decimated by injuries and their star running back quit. Maybe when JP gets in there he can roll out L or R on every play because this offensive line is so god awful We have become the Bungles. This is pathetic. RunTheBall
  4. Can't really blame blew for that last pick, but lets see how many Red Zone plays he's responsible for. 1) #2 pick to Deon was a loss of 3 points at a minimum 2) Missing a wide open Eric Molds was a loss of 4 points So there's 7 points in a 14 point game he's personally responsible for. RunTheBall
  5. Mike Williams can officially be labeled a horrendous draft pick at #4 and 100% BUST. This guy can't even play right tackle when the plan at one point was to move him over to left tackle. What a joke. 6 games in and still getting smoked one on one. BUST. Hopefully he'll be able to play guard adequately so at least we get something out of him. RunTheBall
  6. That was it guys. Not that one throw, but the fact that Drew just killed us with another bone-headed decision. This is the exact type of thing that NE fans have been talking about for years. A killer play at exactly the wrong time. If Lindel makes that field goal (and that's a big if) we're down by 1 TD and 2 point conversion. 10 minutes to go, we've got the ball. I just don't feel like this team has the fortitude to pull it out. I hope I'm wrong. As soon as JP is healthy he needs to be in there getting some practice reps for next season. RunTheBall
  7. Heck, I'd love to land somewhere in a helicopter with Danger Zone blaring in the speakers. Who wouldnt???? It's TOP GUN MAN. Come on. Some things just aren't political, they are iconic! IceMan
  8. I enjoy listening to Bill from time to time but I wouldn't classify myself as a big fan. Bill has based his whole show on being "straight" with the people and having "no spin" discussions. If this is true, how can he even think about settling this sexual harrassment case? I totally think he was set up by a money hungry B word, but why settle? If he settles, his credibility is destroyed in my opinion. I'm sure liberals out there already feel he has no credibility but for moderates on either side of the fence he makes good points from time to time and actually backs them up. If Bill settles this case, the only thing it means is that she has tapes that he doesn't want revealed. If he is on tape saying some nasty stuff, even if he was set up, he's done. You can't walk around acting all sanctimonious and then have vibrator talks with a producer. We'll see. This could get interesting. The only way Bill comes out clean is if he fights it totally and wins in court or it gets dropped. Settlement = guilty for him. RunTheBall
  9. We couldn't trade Travis at the beginning of the year because we did't know what we had in McGahee yet. If you trade Travis and McGahee blows out his knee in the preseason, you know everyone would be pummeling TD. Everyone. We could keep both backs, but Travis has made that difficult by opening up his yapper the day McGahee was drafted and not shutting up and just playing. Then Rosengeek felt it was his place to respond in kind. Now I don't think they can be on the same team after this season. I hope we can get a 3rd rounder for him. The only thing that makes me think its possible is that his salary is low. RunTheBall
  10. The crap continues to pile up on this board. No one was ever going to give up a first round pick for TH. Only blind Buffalo fans think he's anything more than an above average back. You don't give up a 1st rounder for above average. We never would trade him within the division anyway. Sue, I agree great players are needed in Buffalo. Travis Henry is in no sense of the word a great player. Plays with guts, sure. Great, no. It's always easy in retrospect to say we should have done this or that. We didn't know at the beginning of the year, and we STILL don't know what we have in McGahee. He's had ONE good game. One. We'll be lucky to get a 3rd rounder for Travis. RunTheBall
  11. Oh boy. Here we go again. Someone is going to knock this softball out of the park. At least its more interesting than another Cardnals post. RunTheBall
  12. Chris Kelsay. Oh wait, we got him in the second round and he's barely worth that. RunTheBall
  13. Even I have to give the biggest bandwagon fans on the planet a pass when it comes to having a world series game in your backyard. RunTheBall
  14. Of the 4 guys on the line, only 2 (the ends) push into the backfield in this defense. That's what fat Sam is all upset about. So, out of the 3 defensive ends, one of them has tackled the enemy ballcarrier 3.5 times behind the line in FIVE games. WOW! That's production baby. What was I thinking. Between he and Denney we've got 2 serviceable backups. Add Schoebel to that list and now you've got 3 backups and no premier DE. I think he has potential, but there's a lot of potential on that line and not a lot of production. RunTheBall
  15. Steve, Rachel Ray? Come on. She's been eating too many of her 30 minute meals lately. That Maxim shoot was smokin, I agree with you there, but that was a loooooot of donuts ago. See her recently? Big ass, no rack, and a few rolls. If she got herself back together I'd second that opinion quickly. RunTheBall
  16. Cards this, Cards that, YAAWWNN. You sound like a Boston fan. 1 word describes you - Bandwagon. RunTheBall And its obvious you post that crap just to try and rile people up.
  17. Miami has a suspect run D? Only because it helps your point. It's obvious you don't know what you're watching. Willis is a patient runner who waits for his blocks to set up. What, you think all of a sudden this horrible O-line was opening up holes?? What are you smoking?? The reason Willis had yards after contact was not because he missed the hole, it was because there WAS NO HOLE. He made his yards on his own. Wake up. I agree. Willis is not 100%, and yet he still is performing better than Henry. This isn't the first time we've heard comments from the uninformed. RunTheBall
  18. Two wasted second round picks so far. RunTheBall
  19. Wilson will eventually get in. Thurman, Smith are first ballot HOFers Tasker and Hull will get in, not first ballot. Reed is going to have a tough time getting in. RunTheBall
  20. She'll spend her life explaining to people that her first name is Marie. Every time she gets called on by someone who doesn't know her she'll be called Marie. Stick with Paige, ditch Marie and find another middle name. RunTheBall
  21. It is a testament to how horrible this O-line is that an average performance is rated as awesome. They definitely played a solid game on Sunday. Inexplicably, the Miami D did not blitz much. In previous games, this O-line could not block 4 rushers with 6 blockers. Sunday they were able to do that. There were not many holes for Willis to run through. All of his yards were after he got hit by at least one tackler. Willis refused to go down, and made the O-line look like they were actaully doing something. The only thing I was impressed with was that the over-rated Jason Taylor didn't do a thing. That was solid. This line still has not demonstrated the ability to 1) Open a hole on 3rd and 1 2) Handle pressure and blitzing up the middle 3) Handle stunts and other plays designed to screw up the protection I hope they continue to improve but the #1 reason this team has been mediocre and worse for the last 10 years (save 1 playoff appearance) has been the unwillingness of our GMs to address the O-line seriously.

  22. The UN is a fuggin joke, just look at how good they're doing in Sudan. All those resolutions sure are doing a good job at keeping people from being slaughtered. Oh wait, some of the countries have economic ties to the Sudan that they don't want disrupted?? How surprising. One of the biggest cover-ups going on right now is in the UN oil for food program. Look closely at who was absolutely raping this system and the look at who most actively opposed the Iraq war. It's disgusting. Why isn't the New York Times screaming about this? Oh ya, Kerry supports working through the UN and this will throw a wrench in their convenient world view of one big happy family working together to solve the world's problems. We played the UN game with Iraq. We allowed kitty countries like France and Germany have some influence on our foreign policy through this body. When it came time to put some muscle behind the resolutions that THEY VOTED FOR, they balked. We didn't. Let's see how good the UN does in Sudan without the threat of AMERICAN troops heading there. I'm sure France and Germany will be really pushing to halt this atrocity. Oh wait, they've got economic ties......hmm.... RunTheBall
  23. Did you refer him to the Coy Wire Sucks thread? It'll give him a little perspective on what he's done for the team so far. Another great guy who can't play football. RunTheBall
  24. They're raving about Dick Lebeau over in Pittsburgh. I'm not real big on this move. I don't think there was going to be a mad scramble for other teams to sign Jerry Gray away from us. This D is not as dominant as it was last year, although part of that is not having Lawyer and Vincent on the field. Consistantly giving up 3rd and long, 4th and long etc. is not the mark of a good D. Hopefully this will continue to improve as they did well against Miami. Is it really the job of a D coordinator to develop players? I think that's the position coach's responsibility. The D coordinator should take the players he has and put them in a scheme that gives them the best chance to win. RunTheBall
  25. Follow the Ducats gentlemen. There are a lot more benjamins for Paul if he is the gold medal winner. No one gives a **** about the silver or bronze. If I was Paul, I'd tell the Koreans to either fork over some cashola or shove it. What's Hamm going to do after the Olympics? Professional gymnastics? Geeks on ice? Please, he wants to cash in some endorsements that will not come around ever again. Follow the cash, the Olympic "ideal" of sportsmanship died when they allowed professional athletes to compete.
