LOL well okay

why do you hate Cutler?

check his stats, better than you think

Yea. We need a QB before the window with the defense closes. Can't wait for EJ.

I admit that I am intrigued but not ready to pull the trigger. It does require kicking the tires and due diligence because of our QB situation. Pat Kirwin believes that Cutler is much different than he is portrayed.

He has a QB rating of about 90 this year. Jeez from what Ive heard I thought it would be in the 40s. Me smells something is wrong. Looks like a potential buy low situation.

I thought Cutler handled himself very well. He seems like he has some class. It was much different than i expected and makes me wonder if the media hasn't created a villain. I know old school rah rah types don't like him. But, lets just say at this point I'm surprised and thought he be a jerk.

LMAO

GOOD POINT! Fire Belichick and Carroll immediately. There teams are among the most penalized teams. Especially Carroll for all the false start penalties he can't seem to solve.

clichés...clichés...clichés...they all use them!

Its hard to imagine Rivers not playing in a game of this magnitude. Bigger issue is if the 49ers show up.

Bills 17-13

If only I'd known when I was 25 what I know now! Easy to say at his point in life.

For sure. I remember Peter King telling the story about riding to practice with Parcells early in the am for an article when they were both a lot younger. He said Bill bought every paper and read everything about the team. He then threatened the then young reporter telling him if he told anyone he looked at the stuff it would be his last interview!

I have felt all along that Harbaugh would end up at Michigan in the end. It just makes too much sense with him being a Michigan man, and the program in need of an architect. Oakland is the other option I suppose, for more money and control.

It does seem like Media types don't care for Marrone. He's not an ass-kisser, more like a Parcells/Belichik approach to the media. The media started treating both those guys differently after they won.In Buffalo I wonder if Marrone would get the same treatment.

Its mid week and all the people who are scared because the Bills are winning, but not the way they want, and that Marrone won't get fired, are out in full force after a couple days of licking their wounds. You are completely correct in you assessment. I contend that the Bills have improved both defensively and on special teams enormously since Marrone got here. The notion that he gets little or no credit for that is laughable. The chef doesn't always cook the meal himself. Further, this causation/correlation stuff that was brought up works both ways. You want to say all the offensive problems can be traced back to Marrone via Hackett. Then all the defensive and special teams successes he gets full credit for too. Can't have it both ways boys. I agree correlation doesn't equal causation. Lack of objectivity leads to hypocrisy.

Been away for a few hours. This topic has gone haywire since earlier today. Thanks for providing some reason.

Trestman might be the best thing to happen to EJ-as an OC

EJ Manuel says hello

This is true. Maybe getting Hackett some help is the answer. Tweaking the problem, rather than blowing it up is a better approach.

Bottom line: When a team hires a coach and they go from perennially 6-10 to where we are now in 2 years, he is not fired. Short of beating his wife or something totally illegal.

Look I don't want to be contentious. I just have one word-Objectivity.

Not you again. These last few days must be killing you. As to expectations, ever hear of process? Ups and Downs? Expecting outhouse to the penthouse is a bit much.
