A DB can make contact with an offensive player within 5 yards of the LoS. That would be my guess as to why there would be no defensive pass interference.

The early forecast doesn't look good. Let's hope the weathermen continue their reputation of being more wrong than right.

Yes - one big ST play in 4 years - get his bust ready for Canton.
Even a crappy player makes a play once every four years. Before all the hysterical Wire ST-ace stuff starts again - please note that on the NFL.com play-by-play for the first two games this season Wire is not listed as making a single ST tackle.
One play does not suddenly make him a great player.
Stick to your guns. I'm right there with you!

I have assessed the following:
-at the 3:32 mark of the 3rd quarter, I noticed that Angelo Crowell was scratching his leg.....as a result of this I have come to the following conclusion(s):
--he has a serious injury that he is hiding
--there may have been a mosquito that got beneath his leggings (possible west nile virus????)
--he was giving signals to his fellow linebackers on a play
--this was a signal to one of his friends from college
--any thoughts????
Which way were his hips pointing?
Was he standing upright or was he bent at the waist?
Were his feet pointing in or out?

Even better news...the NFTA wants to get out of the waterfront development business(outer harbor parcel) and would like to turn the land over to the Erie Canal Harbor Development Corp.

Very simply stated..

Y My friend (a Leafs fan who lives in Kingston) gave me a call earlier today. He has caught wind of all the griping and was happy to report that Leafs fans couldn't give a rip about the new jerseys (he happened to think they weren't bad) but rather he and his Leaf buddies are far more amused at the fact that the fans are so worked up over them.
I don't remember Flyers fans acting this ridiculous when their team ditched the vintage orange look and adopted the black/3rd jerseys full-time...a legitimate reason to gripe IMO.
Ummmm...of course a Leafs fan wouldn't be upset about the jersey. IT'S NOT THEIR TEAM THAT SWITCHED TO A SLUG LOGO!

I don't have any. The Miami rivalry has been dead for awhile now. If Ralphie didn't stand in the way of realignment a few years back, there was a good chance we would have geographical rivals in Pittsburgh, Cleveland & Cincinnati for decades to come.

It takes all of about 30 seconds to see if there is a thread in the first two pages, that you can add your thoughts to instead of having to put your thoughts into a new thread.
READ MORE, POST LESS!!!

A WHOPPING 4 interceptions and 2 fumble recoveries. He may have led the team, but it doesn't mean that those totals aren't putrid. I could be wrong, but let's see what totals his replacements have at years end.

I disagree totally. Vincent is an amazing teammate. It has been reported a lot that he took Evans aside and worked him after practice all the time and was partly responsible for Lee becoming a good WR so quick. He has already taken the safeties aside and is teaching them how to break down film that coaches don't do. The term "locker room lawyer" is a knock on him and probably shouldn't be used, although not being in the locker room I don't know for sure. The fact that he is head of the players union actually is good reason why he is NOT a locker room lawyer or cancer.
...or Evans has become a very good WR because he is super talented and has a good WR coach in Tyke Tolbert.
Nobody knows for sure, but the Vincent helping Evans story made for good copy at the very least.

A poster named "cweibel" made a mockup of the new uniform based on all the gossip (as well as the hockey pants that have already leaked).
cweibel did a nice job putting all the rumors together so I wouldn't be too surprised if the uniform is close to this. Unfortunately, it's ugly as sin.
MY EYES!!! AAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH!!!!

Locker room lawyer? That's usually used in a pejorative sense (although I'm not sure if that's how you meant it). I have no indication TV was anything but a positive influence in the locker room.
NFLPA bigshot: Again, it seems like you mean that to be a negative (I'm getting that from "bigshot") perhaps I'm mistaken. I think having the President of the NFLPA on the team is, at worst, a neutral thing. More likely, it is a big positive.
Troy didn't end up bringing much to the Bills on the field (mostly due to injury) and he could never match what we lost in Winfield. But, as others have mentioned, the guy is a class act and I wish him well.
pejorative? Sorry, but I'm too lazy to look up the meaning.
This is all I could come up with for Troy's legacy. He's a union big shot who broke JP's leg. I meant locker room lawyer in the sense that he was in there spreading the union gospel, but I could be mixing him up with someone else.
Either way...he has no legacy as a Bill other than this and will not be missed except by the training staff.

I'm forever grateful to him. What a true warrior.
Bottom line...all I care about is what he did(or didn't do) on the field during regular season games. -
The Miami and Malarkey theory
I see Willis as having a banner game (if given the chance) because he's playing in front of his peeps down there in Miami and he's playing against the coach that dogged him in the press and who also didn't believe in his 3rd down abilities. I forsee some big gainers if he has something close to 25 carries. Let's all just hope that nobody is called for blocking in the back this week.
Very simple answer...don't block anyone in the back and you won't get called for it.

I guess this is the end of Vincent's career as a Bill. So let's look at his accomplishments during his tenure...
1. Broke JP's leg
2. Locker room lawyer
3. NFLPA bigshot
That's all I can come up with.
Troy we hardly knew ye. Thanks for the coaching offer, but that's what we have COACHES for.

Nothing wrong with that. Just ask Todd Collins!
