I just pulled away from the gate departing Houston airport (ironically!). Haha f'ers Hope they announce before I lose signal!!!

No need to get hysterical and call me silly, foolish and insane. Think I only made one comparison in both posts. The fact each had the INT lead in the last two seasons. Nothing else...you seem to be taking it to much greater lengths than what I actually had in my posts. I did not claim Fitz is elite or nearly as good or proven as Eli. Fitz still has a lot to prove next season, as far as I am concerned. Especially when he has a real complement of offensive weapons next season (crossing my fingers that between fewer injuries and some good front office moves that will happen). The other point I made, which was my primary point was questioning your statement about Eli being elite and how that can't be questioned. Many people question Eli being elite...especially last year when NY was ready to run him out of town. He was up and down the last few season and hardly considered elite. Really good and maybe great at times , but not elite. With that being said, he had a great run in the playoffs again this year and is now in elite company with 2 SB wins. BUT, both SB wins were team wins and not just Eli.

I really don't care about whatever argument you are trying to prove or disprove. I was just pointing out that your quote was silly...you didn't question Eli as an elite QB after he was tops in the league in INTs and overall performance last season? I sure did. What exact excuses do you apply and accept for his performance last year or is he just elite some years? Oh, and I think the only comparison I made between Manning and Fitz is how Manning was tops in the league last year and Fitz was this year. That is not a silly comparison given that it is a factual stat they share.

OK, so please explain last year when Elie led the league in INTs at a similar clip to Fitz this year. Does your quote "Anyone who thinks Eli isn't an elite QB hasn't been paying attention to the NFL" still apply? - or do you just pick and choose when to apply it?

I'm more surprised than anything, but actually did not express any opinion in my post...just pointed out what Brady said. Seems a bit out of context given he said this at a super bowl press conference that has nothing to do with Buffalo.

I was just watching NFL network live coverage of the Wednesday press conference. Brady was talking about how his parents were very supportive and how they traveled to his games in college and then when he became a starter in the pros. He then said "my (dad) even traveled to Buffalo. I don't know if you guys have ever been to Buffalo, but the hotels in Buffalo are not the nicest places in the world." Anyone else hear this?

What a flawed point of view on this....sorry bud...I buy very little of what you are saying

So did San Diego that year dipshit. How'd that work for them. Don't make it overly simplistic or anything....geeezus

Wtf are you talking about? None of this makes sense...am I missing something...can someone translate?

...and I'm convinced that Damien Covington is going to come back from that devastating leg injury

From reading many of your posts over the years, are you a product of said atmosphere/culture or did you create it?

...and where does Schefter fall on the reliability meter....#10 with the rest of the ESPN Insiders? If it is #10, should we care what he says?

Anyone care to translate? I don't speak TWITTERese

Let's apply some logical reasoning to this. Did you ever think about the fact that he DIDN'T want to sign a contract to play for the Bills when he became a free agent in the offseason?? Should the Bills have held a gun to his head and made him stay or stick with the players that are interested.....?

Plus...who better to learn from than Jackson....much better mentor than Blunt Lynch

I thought Ray Lewis said something like the Bills had better look out because the Ravens were going to crush them....or something to that effect?

Maybe I shouldn't be, but I'm shocked it took until the 4th page for someone to mention this. Forget all of the other rational reasons why trading Spiller is dumb, this is, first and foremost, the main reason why this would never be done! Yo OP / FITZ, you think your a great GM in your own mind, but maybe you should take a course in Salary Cap 101. They have this thing called a "salary cap" in the NFL....learn it, understand it before you take that GM job!

....and it takes a real fair weather friend jackass to start an f'd-up thread like this early in a game. Hope you shut the game off and did not get to see that comeback! There was a hell of a lot of talent and heart on the Bills. The Bengals have a serious chemistry imbalance...

Fascinating! Thanks for the post. Interested to see how this develops....

Great idea! What a great fit they'd be!!

Have fun! Hope the Bills kick ass and WIN!!

Prove it. He did little last year after taking over for Jim johnson (RIP). He is doing little with the defense this year to distinguish himself...the Titans game being only the most recent example.

Exactly! Has Wade's lawsuit against Ralph been settled? Even if it has, Wade would likely NEVER work for Ralpha again.....

I think someone needs to beat you into using paragraphs....unless a light spanking will do the trick. Oh, and using spanking children as an approach to teaching them as a comparison to violent hits that lead to knocking someone out is just nonsense. A more appropriate comparison would be to old school coal miners....they used to deal with workplace conditions that led to a significantly reduced life expectancy including terrible diseases like black lung disease. This is only the start. With all of the recent findings on the severity of head trauma and the medical condition of ex-players, the legal and medical costs of the current NFL model are a huge risk and must be changed quickly. Sorry, but your nostalgic view of the joys of big hits will take a back seat to the financial realities of life in a non-third world nation. With that being said, there is always the ufc...

I was at the game. Peters had 2 key holding calls (that I remember). 1 flat out killed a drive. He was beat a few other times and missed a block on a run. Of course there were a few plays where he dominated when he put his mind to it....typical Peter game...flashes of brilliance and flashes of apathy.
