remember when flutie got us to the playoffs and we played a meaningless week 17 against the colts and rob johnson lit them up and then wade phillips decided to start johnson in the wild card game instead of flutie? yeah let's not repeat ourselves here.

"He's telling me he's ready to go but he's not. But that's his mentality." EJ taking mental reps as if he'll start Thursday.
"He's progressing well, he's 100 miles an hour" & has been rehabbing with team trainers daily since surgery.

The pantywad brigade has been stifled by the good Bills news this camp. One bad game and a couple injuries and the cages have flung open. A lot of pent up bile is flowing now.

someone just started a thread "is this the worst 48 hours in bills history". This is where we're at in the off season. these boards shouldn't even open up to opening day kickoff.

It's just our starting QB injured without a timetable, our second string QB with a career-threatening concussion, our three string undrafted rookie starting at QB, our number one DB out for 8 weeks, our new second string QB having never played a full season, both kickers being rookies and our franchise-tagged safety wanting a trade. It's actually not that bad.

I cannot believe that it is august 26th and i'm having to root on Jeff Tuel for week 1 vs the new england patriots. i just spent 3 months enjoying the fact that the patriots were going to be depleted and beatable, now i'm hoping our undrafted QB can make clean hand-offs. what the hell just happened?

I love preseason. we're amazing! we're horrible! 11 wins, possibly playoffs! 5 wins tops. Kiko and EJ defensive and offensive rookies of the year!
-
Can we just forfeit the 4th preseason game. we literally can't afford to lose anyone else.

The more a timetable isn't presented for EJ's return, the more I think it's a bigger issue. We're looking at less than two weeks until the opener and we just picked up two more QBs who have mediocre "careers", don't know the offense, and haven't taken a snap with our first team yet. Tuel looked really poor vs WASH. Don't you think this would be the perfect time to allay any fears and put EJ's time table out there to the public? I honestly don't think Marrone is smoke screening New England by not providing a time table. There is a reason he hasn't released exactly what's wrong with him, and that reason is that if he did, medical professionals would weigh in on a time table that doesn't have EJ starting week 1, which is probably the case.

Very cool, wish I could be there too. Me and jboyst will have to host one in Carolina.
Where are you in carolina?

good teams win on the road plain and simple. Also we chose to play in Toronto. We also do not know if the bye week will come at a good time or not so lets all just relax and enjoy some football.
Yeah you're right. I mean look at the Pats, open up away against a division foe and then play four days later against a divisional foe. That sucks!

I'm only counting 4 weeks of vacancy.
11/17 - Home
11/24 - BYE
12/1 - TO
12/8 - Road
12/15 - Road
12/22 - Home
17-24 (1)
24-1 (2)
1-8 (3)
8-15 (4)
15-22 (5)
I guess I meant five literal weeks as opposed to five matchups.

The thing is, you can't control the weather so the NFL is probably trying to do its best to not get guys hurt or have 6-3 games (remember the game Bflo played in Cleveland circa 2007 that was an absolute blizzard.. couldn't see anything or do anything). But remember, we don't want to play in a snowstorm anymore than our opponent does.. although I do think we are built to do so with CJ/Freddy and EJ at QB (one of the reasons they drafted him so high was his abaility to show that he could throw downfield in a driving rainstorm).

Because we always look for things to cry about. Seriously, I remember people saying we got hosed last season having 3 December games at home. So which is it?
PTR
I think it's don't let 5 weeks go by without an actual home game. I don't need 3 dec games and i dont need 5 straight "away" games. Just a balance.
-
Just taking a closer look at the schedule and realized that with a late bye week, a game in Toronto and a road trip, we wont be in front of our home crowd for five weeks. Why does it always feel like we get the short of the scheduling stick.

I love that all of our coaches go on to other teams but in more limited roles: wade, greggg, wanny, mularkey,

Week 1. I have night terrors of Kolb dropping back to pass and the center stepping on his foot and him falling backwards and thinking 'oh god, no. I need to show these fans I'm confident" so he desperately throws the ball straight up in the air and the Pats intercepting for a TD. and that's only the first play of the game. By that time it's like 1:08PM.

They have an interesting evaluation of Tuel before the draft, too:
In a draft that lacks a lock stud QB, we’d rather draft Jeff Tuel in round five than any other QB in round one or two. The more we watch this year's group of QBs, the more we think the way to win this draft is to wait and get great value. It’s going to be very interesting to see where Tuel lands. The Patriots have had him in for a visit. He’d be a very good fit for their offense.

My sister's boyfriend's dad knows a guy who knows Marrone and we're starting out with a draw to Spiller.

Its 1 in 4 any given year that we play them. Given they are a good team and we are a bad team the odds of that actually being a loss are pretty good.
if you are an AFC east team, the way the nfc has rotated exactly along the way we rotate which division we play means that all 4 AFCE squads have atleast played the NFC representative all those years.
yea really the odd part is that the NFC representative has followed North, East, West, South, North, East, West.... and this year very well could be south (atlanta has good odds, and saints wouldnt be crazy though i dont think they have the defense and injuries hit hard)
I mean it's not JUST the 1 in 4 aspect. It's getting the division where the superbowl team HAPPENS to be in and then losing to that team. And then that happening SEVEN years in a row.

What are the sheer odds of losing to the eventual NFC Superbowl team for the past seven years?!
2006 — Loss @ Chicago, 40-7
2007 — Loss v. NY Giants, 38-21
2008 — Loss @ Arizona, 41-17
2009 — Loss v. New Orleans, 27-7
2010 — Loss @ Green Bay, 34-7
2011 — Loss @ NY Giants, 27-24
2012 — Loss @ San Fran 45-3

There should be a montage of Cam Newton throwing a bad ball and then laughing. He did it constantly yesterday.

It just so happens that fluke TDs still count for six AND they happen in the regular season too
