  1. Seems like they're getting experienced, depth guys with some turnover ability.
  2. One of the funniest comments I've read in a while...and I agree 100%.
  3. I'm sorry. I realize I don't post much here. But I've been visiting this site for more than 10 years. I love reading Bills related conversation. But why do people like you even start topics like this? Constructive criticism is one thing, but nagging, whining, and b!t@hing before the game is even played? Is negativity and pessimism so fused to your core that you can't even look forward to a Bills game? Be honest, you're not looking forward to the game, you're looking forward to the Bills losing so that you can come back here and take some kind of pride in predicting the disaster of a loss. Because after two games into the season, you've already decided you don't like this failure of a team. There are so many great, intelligent posters here at twobillsdrive. Even when they disagree they usually speak with intelligence and the debate is terrific. You're not at their level. My rant is over, the mic has been dropped.
  4. Colts fans went from Peyton Manning to Andrew Luck. The football Gods have revoked their rights to gripe about any personnel related issues for the next 15 years.
  5. Patriots fans are acting like this is a conspiracy between the NFL, ESPN, and SI. They are pretending that the story is filled with made up stories. Consider this for a moment. The cameramen, allegedly, were in disguise (hiding the fact that they worked for the Patriots). I think this bothered me the most. First, this shows that the Pats knew that it was against the rules. Why hide what you're doing if everything is copacetic? There is no need to hide who you are if you're following the rules. Second, if this were false information the Pats could lose revenue due to negative publicity and would seem to have grounds to sue for libel. If this is all false, the Pats would sue. Do you think Kraft wouldn't sue (or at least threaten to sue)? They cheated. They know they cheated. Their fans know they cheated.
  6. I always enjoy reading Bill from NY's "10 things" posts. But you've done a good job this preseason. No reason we can't have two lists. Just stay away from the Grateful Dead lyrics.
  7. Funny, over the past several years during the preseason I would say to myself, "The offense looks fit for the morgue...but it's just preseason so keep your head up." After today's preseason game I'm saying, "Hey the offense looked alive...but it's a preseason game so keep things on an even keel." After years of being disappointed I want to keep myself emotionally balanced, but I'd be lying if I said I wasn't encouraged after today's game. Did they light it up? No, but they looked like an NFL offense for a change. With our defense that's enough.
  8. I hate to get off topic from the original post, but did you guys see the Daily Show clip? But my god; Gronk is just a big, dumb, meathead.
  9. Has a school ever had 3 prospects go in the first 5 picks? You go Ole Miss.
  10. I enjoy these videos with prospective NFL QBs. I remember watching the clip of Mariucci sitting down with Matt Barkley. Prior to this video, I liked Barkley's game and thought it translated well to the NFL. After watching the video, I wanted the Bills to have nothing to do with him. To me, he clearly didn't have the mental capability to QB in the pros. Mariucci gave him a simple mental QB task that I was able to complete...and I'm no QB. It seems like a small thing, but to me it revealed so much. NFL quarterbacks must have football smarts. He didn't have it. http://www.nfl.com/videos/nfl-combine/0ap2000000145244/Barkley-gets-put-to-the-test
  11. How many times over the last 15 years have the rules changed because of something that happened with the patriots?
  12. If he's related to Linda Lovelace we can be sure he won't choke in the big game.
  13. This team is stacked with talent all over the field. Just imagine if we had a decent quarterback. In my opinion, the season will hinge on Greg Roman. Our OC is the key to this season. Our D will be good/great. Our special teams will be bringing back our aces (Easley, Dixon, Graham, and Money Carpenter). Can Roman get decent QB play? Can he get production out of McCoy, Watkins, Harvin, Clay, and Woods? Yes our QB will be holding our team back; it's up to Roman to find a way to put up points.
  14. I don't think the Dolphins want Clay taking up $7 million on their salary cap. I think this is Whaley's belief as well. In my opinion, Whaley is betting that the Dolphins will remove the transition tag leaving Clay unrestricted.
  15. Not his best game. He looks slow, clumsy, and stiff here; like his knees were bothering him. His size jumps out at you. He looks huge, but he isn't using his size well.
  16. The word on Roman is that he is a very intelligent, innovative football mind. Now take a look at the talent we're accumulating on offense. It seems that Roman, who likes a running game, has a lot of options. Maybe he has something new in mind. We have a great running back in McCoy. A WR who excels at the end-around and reverse (Harvin). Bubble screen master Watkins. And two quarterbacks who have wheels in EJ and Tyrod. I'm not a brilliant football mind, but I can see potential here to keep a defense off balance.
  17. Free agency started on Tuesday. Another round of cuts come will happen after June 1st. And we have the draft. The Bills' roster has changed a lot already, and it will change a lot more before the season starts.
  18. Watching Mariota, I always felt that he was accurate, but didn't have much zip on the ball. It would take forever to reach the receivers; since they were so wide open it wouldn't matter. In the NFL those get picked off. I'm not a scout but I've stayed next door to a Holiday Inn Express.
  19. I hear that Revis is already planning to hold out for more money this training camp. He calls it the home town mark-up.
  20. According to John Clayton, the Redskins will take Mariota if he falls to #5. I know how many of you here wanted RGIII and/or Cousins. I'm guessing one of these two QBs might be available after the draft. http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/dc-sports-bog/wp/2015/03/11/john-clayton-says-the-redskins-would-draft-marcus-mariota-if-hes-available/ I'm not saying I'd want either of the two, but I'm intrigued by Cousins.
  21. No love for Jeff George? I hear he can throw a pigskin a quarter mile.
