Just thinking out loud -- but wonder if that long a flight (as opposed to just cross country) aggravates his migraine condition.

Baseball sushi?

Amanda...tell your dad I expect him to be dancing to this tune soon... Prayers and warm thoughts. Keep getting better Bill....

Titans had 2 weeks to prepare. This is the Bills third game in 5 where the opponent had extra time (Giants and Patriots had Thursday games the week before and Titans had a bye). For the rest of the year: The Dolphins have a Thursday night game before a next Sunday game with the Bills, but its off the Bills bye week. The Bills get a mini bye -- playing Thursday night at the Jets (November 12) with a break until Monday November 23rd at the Pats.

Coughlin said after the game that part of their game plan was the Bills beating themselves. It likely included baiting them. I expect stupid behavior at least once a game from Hughes. He's kind of like our version of Jack Lambert -- one Personal Foul a game is a tradition. However, when Preston Brown gets one -- I think something else is up...the kid is a pro, with no history of punk behavior. Something happened Sunday that will either help or crush the Bills moving forward. There is a formula to beat the Bills -- get the ball out quick on O, stack the line on D and bait them into stupid penalties....Its a pretty easy blueprint.

Mario was basically horse-collared on the Dolphins second TD. It was sinful and right in front of a ref...If this keeps up, Rex is going to have problems living up to his goal of cleaning up the language on the sidelines. Mario earns his money in my book...he sets the edge like a Donald Trump wall and gets significant pressure. The front four was great yesterday and yet just 2 sacks to show for it...could have easily been a 5 plus sack game but Tannehill threw picks and throwaways instead...

Maybe just a wall version of a championship banner? Who knows....better save room though -- going to need more

McDole Cookie Lou Saban??

The Bills season opener or Dareus' season opener? Would love to see Brady be the bologna in a Williams/Dareus sandwich...

Bill - great post as usual. I have one question...does John Miller's play make you smile a bit? I think the Bills have struck gold on 2 straight 3rd round picks from Louisville....

I heard it was an Erie County referendum -- have to wait until November... Do the Packers have to put every cut to a shareholder vote?

Go easy on Josina -- great follow on twitter and a former Tarheel Track Athlete who could beat most of us in any length of race....

He said--"he's a little lefty what else do you want me to say." ... The question was what did you think of Kellen Moore..

There is a Bills related aspect of this..Redskins fans are flooding the secondary market with home game tickets -- just picked up 6 for the Skins Bills game on December 20th for about 50% below face....

I had favorite players during the dark days of the late 70's and early 80's -- Bobby Chandler, Sherman White, Haslett, Smerlas -- all got caught in various forms of transition. These were guys that helped me through the dark days with some inspired play. Fred, Brian Moorman and Kyle Williams are the three that made this era of bad Bills football tolerable. Fred -- thank you from the bottom of my heart. You are a man's man. I will miss you and if you choose to extend your career -- I hope you get the playoffs and if the Bills can't win the Lombardi -- I will be cheering my ass off for you to get a ring and to hoist the trophy. If you choose to retire -- I am confident you have a permanent role in Buffalo. God bless!

Bet it was a rest day and also bet they were starting to do some stuff for Indy ....since he is not going to be playing makes sense to keep him out.

Amazes me that folks want to throw away depth...everywhere...oh this guy wins the starting position, cut the loser/now back up. Some folks say having the "loser" of a starter competition on a team is potentially disruptive, but every NFL locker room is filled with 50 or 51 position players who think they should be starting. If the salary cap is not an issue -- keep the depth.. likely will need it at some point during the season. 3rd QBs have started games before and likely will this regular season.

You are making me feel really old. Elizabeth I'm coming to join you Honey!!! (Common line from Fred Sanford from the show Sanford and Son. Usually used when Fred was in a highly stressful situation. Elizabeth was his deceased wife).

Yesterday the judge in the Brady hearing gave them a new excuse. The so-called "general knowledge" standard. The judge chastised the NFL for using a general knowledge standard in suspending Brady saying that it was not good enough. For altering of game equipment or any other competitive advantage the punished individual needed more than a general knowledge but a specific knowledge of the act to be punished. It was interesting.... I can hear Kraft, Belichick and Brady in a meeting with operations staff saying something like -- "Now we all know how much of an advantage it would be for the Patriots to have footballs deflated to Tom's liking, cameras installed at opposing team's walk throughs, eavesdropping devices planted in the opposing team's locker room, jamming devices in the opponent's on field communications gear and Aaron Hernandez shooting tapes piped into the opposing locker room--so we want to make sure none of you partake in any of these activities that would lead to more Super Bowl titles for us..." General knowledge of competitive advantage but no specific knowledge of an act....

Thanks Kelly...

jw--Is Dareus still represented by the agency that Terry Pegula used to own? Are the agents still the same as when Terry owned the firm? Probably not relevant information -- but just curious.

Video and Audio Surveillance Equipment Tampering I can't wait until Tonya Harding becomes special assistant to the head coach...

The best line in a Bills player video in a long time......that was awesome.
