  1. Saw that. If Trent's brain is currently in Stan Humphries Stage, then we do need a backup option. Could do far worse than Ramsay. Though we could sign Uncle Ric--er, Jeff George. /whitlock'd
  2. If Suh is there when we pick, I'd want him. He's a disturbingly effective force. That said, we could easily go QB in the first round, and I tend to think that Claussen is the best NFL QB in this draft. And I hate ND, so I'm not a Domer homer by any stretch of the imagination.
  3. You gotta love that he didn't take the sticker off the inside of the brim. I don't know what that says about him.
  4. Again, the warm-weather thing isn't entirely determinative of a QB's success; it's a factor, a deficiency that has to be overcome. Favre is a good example of someone who overcame his lack of a background in the cold. McMahon, IIRC, went to BYU, which is mighty cold in winter. But my point was, and is, that a QB who has already learned to play in lousy weather is better suited to the AFC East than someone who was born and raised in the sun. Before Edwards became a shellshocked Kenny O'Brien clone who struggled in all conditions, he was two different players depending on the weather conditions. Sanchez may be in the same boat. Is it possible he'll get over it? Sure. But it's a problem that the Jets need to address. I thought Marino had a good career in Miami, FWIW.
  5. Indeed. Roll that though around in your head for a minute. 319 yards rushing allowed. Good lord.
  6. Kelly is from Western PA, and learned to play ball there. I'd like a better QB than Fergie. I'm not saying that warm-weather QBs can't thrive in the cold. I'm saying that their background is an impediment that has to be overcome, like being short.
  7. Remember a couple years ago, when Edwards looked good till the Giants game when the weather turned nasty? Remember how JP struggled in the winter elements? Well, the USC golden boy looked mighty bad today. And it's not because the Bills D is anything special. It's because fair weather California QBs take a long time to adjust, if they ever do, to cold, rain, and snow. So you know, if we're in the market for a QB this offseason -- and we probably should be -- let's try and pick up a guy with some experience in the northeastern winter.
  8. Sorry. The win just saved his job for the rest of the year.
  9. The Bills don't lose often in Rich Stadium. Alas, we now play in Ralph Wilson Stadium, a cursed field. In all seriousness, it was a bad call.
  10. The Rog called that one in from the NYC offices.
  11. Dick got what he wanted at the toss -- the wind is at Moorman's back
  12. Will Rex Ryan kitty out and settle for a 45 yarder? Are you high? No.
