Keep Buddy Nix, Chan Gailey, & Ryan Fitzpatrick.
We need Tony Dungy, Raheem Morris, & Geno Smith in place of these fing losers!

Soooo people on facebook are bandwagon fans... got it
Hey I thought it was interesting just to see how our popularity pales in comparison to the top tier NFL teams. It's not about market size, see Green Bay. Maybe if we were good we could get a 1/2 million likes from Southern Ontario. 422,000 likes is a joke for a franchise that claims it owns Western NY population 3,500,000 million & southern Ontario 7,000,000.

New England WEEI radio stream on pats.com is totally busting our balls & Carroll's.
They are laughing at us in New England.
New England sports radio is killing the Bills. They are simply laughing at us. Didn't they lose yesterday?
-
Sullivan can smell a rat.
Our organization Org Chart reeks of second rate talent.

Regular Season Record (all-time) : 369-425-8 via profootball reference
I'd put Ralph in the bottom 3rd. His lone saving grace being the mid 1960s, early to mid 1970s, & the golden era 1988-1999.
-
The Pats lost coz old man Brady is losing his edge. Bet he is wearing down. 62 passes is too many for a 35 year old.
-
Buddy needs to take out his trash first; Chan & Fitzmagic. Then he can go throw himself over the falls for all I care.
-
A real coach might make better of this group. I say fire Nix & Gailey, promote Whaley.
As for possible head coaches I'm all for bringing in Raheem Morris as Head Coach & AVP as our OC. Bring in a guy like Brendan Daly to be our DC.
-
He should have stayed in track because he has no hands. Maybe we can bring back Jauron to convert him to corner.
-
Buddy will blow the pick. Too stupid / conservative.
-
I'd rather steal a euro feed or use my dads rather than pay what I did this year 200 plus 60 for mobile anywhere.
The Bills steal from us by sucking hard the past 13 years.
I won't pay for another year of Fitz & Gailey.
-
Gailey is a bad coach.
15-31 is a terrible. At what point does he step down? He should do us all a favor & resign saying he's been a failure.
-
The only way you beat the Pats is by pounding Brady all game & controlling the clock & playing for 7 not 3.
-
Is that why he drafted Lawrence Maroney in the 1st round, Stevan Ridley in the 2nd, and Shane Vereen in the 3rd? (Ridley & Vereen in the same draft, no less.)
When you constantly trade players, trade back in the draft, & accumulate draft picks you can spend a 2nd or 3rd on a running back. It's pretty obvious Belichick learned his lesson on Maroney. Ridley & Vereen are one-cut & a cloud of dust kind of backs, they are strong with low centers of gravity.
Don't even try and challenge me that Ridley & Vereen are high draft picks. Ridley was a 3rd round pick #73 by the way, Vereen was their 2nd round pick #56 in 2011.
Belichick drafted Maroney in 2006 and didn't draft another back until 2011.
For their careers Vereen has 69 carries & Ridley 330. Seems to me Belichick was hedging his bets taking running backs with back-to-back picks.

If only Kelsay, Merriman, Moore, & Anderson were holding up their end of the bargain. I believe Mario is out-sacking them combine.
-
There would be 3 wild card games: #2 vs #7, #3 vs #6, and #4 vs #5. #1 would get a bye. I also proposed adding a 2nd bye week BUT having teams coming out of a bye play a Tue or Wed Night game, adding yet another national TV game while also adding an 18th week to the NFL season, but still playing only 16 games. This is better than adding two regular season games. I'd also favor reducing the pre-season to just two games.
PTR
I agree on this playoff expansion, Allowing 7 of 16 teams in from the conference would ensure a less watered-down product.
IMO, the NFL season should start the final Sunday of August/first of September with the goal of getting the playoffs underway right after Xmas & New Year.
To accomplish this you don't need 4 preseason games, lowering the preseason to 3 games would allow the earlier start & allow for a second bye week. There would essentially be 3 bye weeks including the preseason. The week before the regular season begins & 2 bye weeks during the regular season.
With so many blackout games across the NFL eliminating a preseason game allows for teams to charge more during the regular season & the earlier ensures another early game with high attendance.
-
If you've ever read my sure-fire plan to improve the NFL, one idea was to add a 3rd wild card team and give only the #1 seed a bye week. Someone at the NFL obviously reads my posts.
PTR
PTR a 3rd wild card game? Or 7th seed to play #2 seed?
Last as bad as we've been the last 13 seasons what years would we have made the playoffs of it were expanded to 8 teams?
Outside of 2004, does one of Jauron's perennial 7-9 teams make it? That's sad probably 1 team would make the playoffs in 13 years with 2 extra teams!

Are people here and elsewhere really hating on fred jackson? I still think he's one of the most beloved on the roster (for good reason.) He's just not the best RB on the team anymore. Not a big deal really. A much younger, top 10 draft pick should be outperforming fred at this point.
My point is for the money Jackson is finished. He's been paid plenty of dollars. A cut throat GM or any reasonable GM would realize Fred is breaking down like all running backs past 30.
He has had 4 major injuries in his past 11 games, or 1 in every 2.75 games. A competent GM could get a late round, or undrafted rookie free agent that can do what Jackson did this season. And to make the argument that somehow he'll get healthier at 32 is ridiculous.
Gailey's insistence on a 50/50 or 60/40 share shows yet again failed logic. Had Spiller been given an 70/30 80/20 Fred would likely be producing & maybe we'd have 1-2 more wins.
-
I agree with you that Brady is 60% of it. It will be interesting to see how soon Bellicheat cuts him loose because he thinks its all his system and Brady is too old/immobile/diva/expensive.
Brady will be around another 5 seasons barring injury. With the moden advances in health, medicine & the NFL rules, I think we'll see a lot more big armed durable Brady types play well into their 30s & possibly early 40s.
That said there's nothing more that I'd like to see than Dareus or Mario crushing Brady & knocking him out cleanly from a game.
-
I was thinking this:
Hurt RB round 1 2013 just like 2003
Fast WR round 1 2014 just like 2004
Bad QB round 1 2014 trade up like 2004
Wait a minute!
Can it really be that we are now approaching a 14th & possible 15th year with no playoffs?
-
Could Wannstedt's easiest defense be they were playing a 100 million dollar man with one arm?
-
so Bill is a great GM? You mean because of the Seymour trade that he did that his defense never recovered from or all the crappy drafts they've had.
They are great because of ONE player, not the head coach/gm.
Bill took a calculated risk when trading Seymour in 2009, but he got a 1st round pick in 2011 that yielded Nate Solder who is a great starting left tackle. He got a solid starter who is 9 years younger and has a bright future a gave up a guy who was on the wrong side of 30.
If you look at the Pats defense they are extremely stout against the run and have a better front 7 than we do. Furthermore the secondary is much improved with Talib & Dennard & McCourty.

How do you know which ones arent guaranteed?
I believe McGee's contract expires after this season, & I think Spencer Johnson does as well.
The major point of contention being you don't pay a big bucks for guys who can be replaced.
Fred Jackson was once a great back. Unfortunately he appears finished, broken leg, LCL, concussion, MCL in his past 11 games played. That's 4 different injuries in 11 games or 1 every 2.75 games.
Barnett is a warrior but a step slow. George Wilson appears to have lost his play making capability & is always a step slow or allowing his assignment to get separation.

Maybe if we had an actual owner with competent front office we'd be past the 1/2 million mark. I mean I will grant Jacksonville & St. Louis a pass as they've only been around for 15 years. We've been around 53 seasons and have a limited national fan base. I'd make the argument many of our fan base is baby boomers, and demographically we will be the lowest "liked" Facebook team if we have to endure another 13 years of this.
In another post today I noticed the NFL will move a team if the fan base falls apart. Out of the bottom 3 teams, I'd put Buffalo as the team most likely to leave town accounting for: an aging shrinking population.
