Most likely Sammy will be gone. If so I hope he goes too the Packers. And achieves his potential.
Sammy in that Pack offense...... wowzers.

£140 for the International Game Pass. Best £140 I spend every year. Every game live (except those being shown live on UK tv) all the Football Life archives, Undrafted, Hard Knocks, full access to NFL Network all year round..... absolute bargain.
I do feel your annual "negotiation" game pain though. I have to do it every year with SKY Sports (which shows some NFL but also shows all the soccer). You have to say you want to cancel, get a cancellation date, wait for the retention team to ring you back and offer you a deal £15 a month better than the one you are on..... they know you aren't really going to quit, you know you aren't really going to quit... it is a total charade, but their business model relies on a certain % of people just seeing their bill go up year by year by year and doing nothing about it.

Oh Lord.... here we go again. It's like that game at the fairground.... bash one thread containing a circular Tyrod argument on the head and another one pops up just as quickly.

Haven't we had about 7 or 8 2006 first rounders on our team at one time or another?
- Whitner
- Mario
- Young
- Bush
- Leinart
- Lawson
Sure I am missing one....EDIT: McCargo.... of course..... I have tried very hard to blank him from my memory.
-
I can't disagree with number 1. That was a great feeling. I'd have the sack safety of Rodgers at #2.
-
...so then why does he end up as Ravens' TE Coach and Assistant HC?......
He is basically in charge of the run game and he will, no doubt, improve it.
-
This should be shut down.
-
Kinda odd how you only attack him because he doesn't share the same views as you.
Dr Phil has room for you too. Lol.
On TBD attacking pro-Taylor fans is not allowed. Attacking anti-Taylor, or even people who are not anti-him but see no evidence he is a possible long term solution is fine.
I think the mods here generally do a fantastic job. But the Taylor thing has not been moderated fairly IMO.

Don't let Big Cats heat maps fool you.
They were actually good at staying on the field and reducing the 3 and outs after Roman was fired.
No it's 3 and outs in bunches you need to look at.... errr... no.... it's 3 and outs when the game is within 7 points...... errr... no.... it's 3 and outs on days when the wind is blowing south westerly......
The problem with the defense was the defense.

My fellow dudes, I think someone broke Bryan.

I would not be surprised if by February we are hearing "there might only be 1 or 2 first round talents in this class".
-
True.
Also true, but doesn't take into account the Fitz turnovers at the worst time.
And we all remember those, for sure, and I was ready to move on from Fitzy this is not some unreconstituted Fitz homage but give him a better D and he wins more games. I think he was capable of the kind of 9-7 / 10-6 years he has had in Houston and New York since leaving. Not every year... but he had that in him if you gave him a D, the same as TT does.
I think TT is the best Quarterback we have had in the drought save for those first 10 or 12 games of Bledsoe. I just think Fitz isn't that far behind and he is certainly better than Orton.
-
And for the 100 millionth time, TT is better than Fitz. How many times does this nonsense have to go back and forth. Again TT is a better QB than the Fitz. The defense was the main problem last season, not the offense. the last two seasons with TT as QB,, the Bills offense is one of the higher scoring offenses in the NFL.
Whilst I agree TT > Fitz... the defense was also the biggest reason Fitz's ceiling here was 6-10. We fielded some atrocious defenses in those years.
-
There's a chance that he's a bit of a problem child. Got benched by the ****ty 49ers for violation of team rules.
Honestly, with his play last year, I thought he'd sign long-term somewhere.
I'd have a problem listening to Chip Kelly too. In fact I'd have a problem not punching his smug face repeatedly whilst laughing.
-
He was a very good rotational back... And I hope you are right, but when McCoy goes down Tolbert and JW are our RBs. Cringe worthy.
I still think either Banyard or O'Neal end up making he team. Our best hope is one of them is an undiscovered gem like TD Mike was.
-
Like the Colts game. Cassel gets the first snap. Taylor plays the whole game and Cassel gets the W.
Yea it is stupid.
-
Many sites list wins with the QB. I don't mind either way. But 14-14/ 15-14 when he plays, is far from terrible. Bledsoe, Orton, Taylor-only QBs so far worth discussing since 2001.
Like the Colts game. Cassel gets the first snap. Taylor plays the whole game and Cassel gets the W.
Think that is a bit harsh on Fitzy. I think give Fitzy the defense Orton had and he would have got us to 9-7 at least once.
-
Love that Mohammed Sanu gets a stat haha. The NFL really have to apply some common sense to the "who starts at QB" thing beyond just "who is standing there for the first offensive snap?"
-
Top 10 in offensive touchdowns.
I agree we need a better passing game, but not to the extent Bills fans think.
If the run game stays the same. If the run game drops from say 1st to say 10th or 12th (just for reference Denver were 17th (13th in ypa) and 27th (28th in ypa) in Rico's two years there as OC) then the improvement we need from Tyrod to pick up the slack as well as a better collective effort defensively will be greater than it would have been simply adding a small improvement from Tyrod and a big step from the D to Roman's run game.
-
Declare? Isn't he a senior?
I think he is a 4th year junior because he redshirted a year didn't he?
-
That should be no surprise to anyone. Greg Roman is the best coordinator of a running game in the National Football League. He is as creative in the run game as any of the more well known "offensive innovators" who focus on the passing game. Take this to the bank - The Ravens running game which was moribund last year will be top 10 this year. Greg Roman is just that darn good.
Now his passing game on the other hand.... might kindly be described as "basic" and where the Shanahan / Kubiak / Rico scheme is much better than Roman is using the run to set up the pass. Roman's offenses lack that philosophical cohesion.
I do fear we will become a bit more one dimensional in the run game though. Roman could beat your every way in the running game. When he was calling the plays they focused on trying to get Shady outside. Lynn's calling of the plays from the same playbook focused on getting Shady north and south more quickly.... both styles of run game topped the league in rushing offense. Rico said they have looked at elements and will try and incorporate some of what Roman did, but I think you can expect us to be 90% a zone stretch run game which takes away a little bit of the back's ability to "freelance" on plays because there will, simply by nature of the scheme, be unblocked defenders coming from the open side. Now we know Shady can still make a defender miss in the open field, but for him to have a big year he will need to stay nice and disciplined in the scheme and hit the holes that it creates.

And from Joe B, today:
1) Tyrod Taylor has his sharpest day yet
- Through six workouts that the media has been able to view during the spring offseason sessions, the best day weve seen from starting quarterback Tyrod Taylor was saved for the last day of school, so to speak. Taylor started off slowly with an interception, but after that, he was as sharp as could be. He was hitting his receivers in stride, sensing the pressure of the defense to find the bust in coverage, and firing the ball into his targets. This was a good sign for Taylor, especially considering that the other five workouts weve seen has featured him really playing at an average to below average level and that can be attributed to a number of different things, too. Hes working in a brand new offense, hes working with receivers he hadnt met before a couple of months ago, and a host of other issues, too. Now, he can pocket a great performance on the final day of minicamp and will look to continue that into the start of training camp. For the Bills to be at all competitive this year, theyll need Taylor healthy and to be playing at a similar level to last year at least.
Maybe things have changed, he's just gotta readjust to a new offense, again.

Actually this will be the first time in Buffalo he is being asked to adjust to a new offense. Lynn did not run his own offense he ran Roman's thought he did make some changes to the rhythm of the play calling.
I hope yesterday is a sign of things to come for Taylor. To do what I think we need him to do this season he is almost certainly going to have to throw a few more picks... but he simply has to stop waiting for things to be college open before he lets go of the football. Camp is going to be really important for him.

take that back!
Brax a beast. Give the man a real QB ffs! 
They are both what they are. Running QBs with no place in the NFL at any position.

5. JT Barrett
. Not draftable. -
cap room?
Yea. Or less wouldn't have room but wouldn't want to pay two running backs that high a cap %.

So....Eric Decker? Signs w/ Titans

I think he is because looking at that he seems to have been a Geno fan and I think I remember enlightner being a Geno guy..... (might be misremembering but I think he was)
