Shane, Shane, Come back Shane!
I Billieve that Shane Nelson and Shane Conlan (who I don't think I've seen yet) would both be in the hall of fame if it were not for injuries.....sad....
and of course, Howard Cosell's favorite, Jerry Butler.
Derrick Borroughs would have been a pro bowl shut down corner if not for the great Dolphin Killer, Leonard Smith and his extreme zeal.
Speaking of corners, the Bills had a ton of very, very good corners, running backs too...

Bobby Moore, Pat Wiiliams, Antoine Winfield.....Bloody Vikings....

hell...there was a receiver and special teams guy in the 80's, and I was sure someone would name him as he was gutsy as hell and a fan favorite as he had limited talent and played at 150%. To show how unheralded he was even I can't think of his name off the top of my head.
I would also put Ernie Warlick up there as an unheralded Bill. He was an outstanding player in big games and never got the credit he deserved.

I hope I'm wrong, but it feels like 2009 all over again. We went into the season with an unproven rookie at LT and no depth. When we lost our starting tackles to injury we were screwed, scrambling the rest of the year to send out healthy bodies regardless of effectiveness.
Fast forward one year: we have the same problem at LT (unproven-coming off knee surgery) and a Raider cast off at RT, and no experienced depth. The tackle situation is worrisome at best. We may be bitching the entire year why we didnt address the problem more seriously. Green-Wang were the best Nix could do? If this situation blows up in our faces again this year I might fill my BILLS golfbag full of cow crap and send it to Nix's office!
Don't believe the propaganda about Bells' athleticism and we're gonna run it most of the time so it doesn't really matter. If we don't win this year because of our tackles ineptitude I will have made up my mind on Nix. It was our biggest offseason need along with QB. Nix said he didn't agree with the fans that our tackle situation was that bad-I hope he's right!
Are you comfortable with our tackles going into camp or should we have done more to date?
WHERE DID YOU HEAR THIS? ARE YOU SURE? OMGNO!
RUN, EVERYBODY RUN! RUN AWAY, RUN AWAY!
OH DEAR, OH DEAR!

I really like Ritchie. He has the physical skills to be a probowler at his position. Unfortunately the kids a lunatic. Not what Chan and Buddy are looking to build on I suppose.
I think it's a 100% team chemistry reason. the bills are very decisive with what kind of players they want to build with....cognito is simply not good enough to ignore his many blemishes. you gotta do wehat you think is right.....

The Miami Herald confirms that Dolphins DE Phillip Merling will miss the 2010 season after tearing his Achilles' tendon.
Merling reportedly sustained the injury during a football workout, putting the finishing touches on a nightmare offseason. The last pick of the 2008 first round had taken the majority of the first-team reps at right defensive end in spring practices. The Dolphins will now rely on this year's first-rounder Jared Odrick after losing both Merling and NT Jason Ferguson in the past week.
Maybe he will rehab in prison??
the poor, poor fishies, my bosom aches for them....

I agree - McKelvin, Wood, Spiller, and Maybin need to play good. I'd say so too do our draft picks this year. Maybe more important will be Troupe, and guys like Batten and Moats, who'll probably see a lot of playing time at the LB spots. One thing I really like about this team is that it is young. We have youth at most every position, and if we could get these guys clicking this year, then we've got, hopefully, three to five years ahead of us where the core of the team will be intact. The length of these young people's contracts is the most important reason, to me, for them to contribute immediately. In the case of Maybin, for instance - what if he doesn't start producing until year three or four. Really producing. Then he starts tearing it up in year four, say. In that situation we'd be paying him top dollar for a five year contract? and get two good years out of him, and then he'd be off to the highest bidder. We've seen that happen, we know it'll happen to any of our stars except maybe QB. So, with the way the NFL is now, our rookies have to contribute. And Nix knows that. He's mentioned it specifically, and I think he drafted this year with that in mind - that our rookies need to contribute. Lets hope they made the right decisions.
I think buddy was talking about high picks needing to contribute right away, not that it matters. The Bills were a bad team last year, for us to turn it around this year, we are going to need spiller and troup to have very good years, plus a couple surprizes from players like moats, batten, calloway, carrington etc. We need our last year guys to help even more...if wood, maybin and levitre don't impress, it'll probably be another long year. I have very high hopes for mckelvin, I think aside from giving up a few long plays here and there, he will be star this year, jumping routes and bye-bye. kick returning as well....

I heard why Brohm fell in the draft was due to a bad senior bowl week and game.
Having said that, I'm really hoping he wins it outright, and he plays well...that would be intense.
Good QB play in Buffalo! Hot Damn!

Isnt that deep for this time of year?
no, I think that is about right for July...
-
Ha - visiting for the 4th and this morning went with my Dad and son out on a local trout stream and my son caught his first (three) brown trout (
) - and on the way home my Dad kept going on about how he wished we were in town a little longer to go out on the lake after some Walleye....I noticed you forgot to name th stream.....an oversight I'm sure
-
I for one am optimistic that after averaging a whooping 20 catches for 217 yards and 1 TD over the past 5 seasons, that our first pick from the 2005 draft is going to break it open big time this year!!!!
And the people rejoiced. yeahhhhh.....

Never too early for a wet blanket, huh?
I'm just sayin' that's all....it's kinda funny....doncha think?

Ahhh, Buffalo in July! Lake Erie’s temperature is ideal for swimming and footballs, volleyballs and Frisbees fill the air. The walleye are suspended at 80 feet, and sailboats add sublime beauty to our vast inland sea. The beach bars are hoppin’ and the beaches themselves outstanding; just covered with scantily-dressed babes. There are extras now, migrates; ditching that Florida heat.
Everywhere there are colorful festivals. They are all serving some type of sausage, selling some form of art and playing some kind of music. In essence, parties for the public- they are fun.
And Buffalo Bills’ wide-receiver Roscoe Parrish proves once again that no man can cover the diminutive water bug in June. Bills’ fans in droves Billieve he will do it again come this September. When the new, smarter coach devises a brilliant way to use him….
Ahhh, Buffalo in July!
So beautiful…
So plentiful….
So dreamy.

On top of that, the Steelers line has been horrendous for the last two seasons both in run blocking and pass protection.
They did well to draft Maurkice Pouncey this year but with the loss of Colon, I envision difficulties again for their O-line.
With Roethlisberger's issues, I think the Steelers will struggle. On top of all that, they are aging on the D-line (Hampton, Keisel), have lost Santonio Holmes, and are thin behind Mendenhall.
Great linebackers though. But I don't see Pittsburgh as a top power this year. I think they're dropping into a little valley right now.
But they're a great organization and you would expect them to re-gear.
their pro-bowl rt. de is also old and coming off a season-ending injury. they missed him bad last year, it wasn't just troy p. they were missin'
go bills!
-
Perhaps not. The Steelers new OL coach was the Bills OL coach last year. Scott and Kugler just caught the same flight out of Buffalo.
what are you implying, that scott and kugler are good?
-
Perhaps the fact that scott got picked up by the steelers shines an optimistic light on the Bills. If the Bills deemed him not good enough, yet the winning steelers want him, maybe it sez our line isn't as bad as most think...maybe most of our O-lines problems last year were youth and injury related. I sure hope so!
