Once again...get over it. St. Drew is no longer a Bill. Your home page should now be...Drew is not my cousin. He's a guy who played 48 straight games for thisteam and got up off the ground every time he took a lick and took the next
snap without pointing the finger at anybody.
For this he gets insulted and derided daily by a group of guys who think
it's great sport to type things about a guy they'd never have the guts to
say to his face.

Way to use the "Topic Title" field to its full potential.

USA Today
So I'm reading this on the plane yesterday, great big article and all, but look who this reporter is getting quotes from:
WTF???
Who's this "we" he's talking about? 
The kicker was the very FIRST quote in the article was from CW. Did somebody not tell the reporter that not only is he not a starter, but he may not even make the team.

I can tell you how it will go and save you the time. He will start off by saying the Bills look great and should have a fantastic season. Then when they lose their first game, he'll proclaim that the owner sucks, the GM sucks, the QB sucks and nobody at OBD knows what the f*** they are doing.
In other words, he's no different than a poster here, except he convinced somebody to pay him to say it.

I don't like Brady as much as any other Bills fan, but the effort being made to show that he is just another average QB in the right "system" and that NE could have won the Super Bowls with any other QB is bordering on ridiculous.
That being said, no need for a Pats troll to rub it in.

I'm not sure which member of the Bills scouting staff is responsible for us signing Greer and Baker, but I hope they got a little extra at Christmas time!

Isn't Jimmy B. working in Arkansas anymore??

It was a zone blitz. Schobel's job was to cover the back out of the backfield (as it developed), which he did. When Favre started scrambling, however, it was virtually impossible for Schobel to stay with Ahman Green. But if a LB were on him for that long, I doubt the LB would have stayed with him either. The play broke down because Favre scrambled and reversed his field and then lobbed a perfect touch pass on the run, not because of a mismatch or mistake on defense.
I hear what you are saying, but I just don't agree with a scheme that takes your best pass rushing DE and drops him into coverage against a RB. That being said, it's hard to argue with Gray's success the last couple of years.

It doesn't matter how quick and agile your DE's are. They will not be able to cover a RB in any downfield pass coverage scenario.

If I recall, Jason Peters was cut on the first cut down day last year. He then went to the Giants for the last week of training camp and after they cut him, and no one claimed him, did a few teams try to sign him to their practice squad and he chose to sign with the Bills. I recall surmising that the Bills tried to sneak him through the cuts, figuring another team wouldn't pick him up but the Giants did and I thought we lost him.
You could be correct on Peters, but these guys didn't even make it to the first cut down date, which is not until next Tuesday I believe. I guess anything is possible.

I still don't understand. WGR is not allowed to talk about the Bills on the air or they have to be careful what they say?
I'm not trying to be a pain, I just want to know what this lawyer/legal stuff is all about?
-
If he can't make it to the first cut down day, I would find it very surprising to see him end up on the PS. Typically the players who are the last to go are the ones who end up on the PS.

Look for yourself. Go to the WGR website and see if you see "Buffalo Bills" mentioned anywhere other than in a news article. The WGR Bills Report is called "Buffalo Football Report" and it's not like WGR is reporting on UB football. There are no Bills logos anywhere as well.
News articles are the only way WGR can say Buffalo Bills because that's freedom of press.
Now look at every other radio/tv station website that isn't part of the Bills TV/Radio network and you'll see they have much more freedom with the Bills.
You didn't say their website, you said....
"If WGR does anything Bills related, they usually get letters from NFL lawyers saying don't do that again. It's a battle every day for WGR just to be able to say the words Buffalo Bills on air."
I took this to mean that even talking about the Bills on the air is a battle for WGR?

I was puzzled by this when GB scored and then proceeded to forgot about it. I've never understood the part of the zone blitz scheme where you have a 280 pound DE trying to cover a 200 pound RB? It's a matchup that the defense will lose everytime.
...unless it was a blown coverage!

I just confirmed air tickets to Buffalo for the Denver game. FYI- Southwest from BWI $106 roundtrip includes all taxes and surcharges. Anyhow, we usually stay at the Marriot Falls View, nice hotel, etc. So here is the question, should I go ahead and get a Passport for my travel between the US and Canada? And can anyone explain the process, timeline etc.
Thanks!
I believe the proposal that requires a passport to go between the US and Canada, has been tossed in the garbage can. A birth certificate will suffice.

PtR...Welcome to the world of S H I T sports talk. For the out-of-towners who yearn for Buffalo sports talk, you are more than welcome to WGR.
Speaking of Bledsoe supporters...where are JohnInMinn & NJsue when Oneida could really use them?

I'm guessing he is back for the Bills 6th game.
