  1. Very solid on defense as well. Have to perform at high level and not make any mistakes.
  2. Hodgins is tough loss. Giles Harris will play defensive snaps in the league this year. And Josh Thomas probably won't make it through waivers.
  3. I am not surprised by Powell. He had a poor camp, according to most of the media reports that I followed. I did not believe his returner status would save him.
  4. I found Fields to be inconsistent in college. Great one game and then sub-par the next. I think Watson was a much better prospect coming out. Fields is going to put up stinkers, and then come back and upset someone the next week. That is how I see it unfolding.
  5. The Chicago Twitter Feed says it is a mix of 1 and 2s. They are bringing them in and out.
  6. I have held from the beginning that the Aaron Rodgers sideshow was a diversion by the League to keep the press off Deshaun and help it go away
  7. Beane really upgraded the LB depth this off-season. We may get a look at some of those guys. 58 and 49 are usually out a game or two.
  8. I think that I was very hopeful for JOK at 30. As I was in the TBD Draft Thread that evening, I wasn't alone in that hope. A part of me, a part that I try to suppress, wonders if this wasn't an EJ Manuel type of draft. A situation where the Bills FO decided on a position and not a player. Even though that position group was very thin that particular year. "McBeane" seemed to decide they wanted to "impact the passer". But to me, an undeniably non-expert, this year's pass rushing group was thin. And thus they may have reached for a concept, rather than putting the BPA on the roster. On the other hand I could not help but notice that the two teams behind us in the draft, the SB teams, also drafted pass rushers immediately after the Bills took #50GR. And also that as I reviewed the highlights and video clips of young MR. Rousseau that I thought he looked pretty darn good. So that is what I think about this subject.
  9. I think Hughes got after it in the Playoffs, big time. He was in on Rivers and Jackson at some key moments.
  10. The difference in ownership attitude goes well beyond the HC. The Pegulas have an elite FO and Scouting Department. Beane's assistants are all top notch. Dollars are not spared there. Then there is the upgrade to the "facilities". The OBD facilities were pathetic prior to Mr. Terry and that made it harder to attract talent. Ralph wasn't just cheap at HC and free agency, but top to bottom systemically.
  11. It is that time of year. You pray one of your guys doesn't get arrested or go on drama filled hissy fit on social media about a subject the team had decided to keep "in house". Silly season
  12. The Bills had a 3rd rounder shot about this time of year once. 3/4 outside backer from VT. Fella only played 1/2 of a season in the League.
  13. There are next day appointments available throughout Upstate NY. Even same day. State income tax is a bother, but not 90% - Good Schools for the most part.
  14. IMO Cole is a good man. He is a great Bill and I hope he will be on the team this year and active. I disagree with his stance but can mostly respect a guy who comes from that place. But I totally disagree with the histrionic melt down on social media and think it is a mistake.
  15. JH55 was immense against Indy in the Playoffs. Played well in the post season but rocked the Colts
  16. I think Lebetard translates to "The Ba^tard". Which while being a matter of family origin (see "Snow" in GOT) is also somewhat descriptive in this instance.
  17. Great video. I can't fathom Terry using the "How is the weather up there?" line on Spencer Brown. And then having it make the spliced and edited video. Cool inside look though.
  18. I love NOLA but will be off to the newly rescheduled fall Jazzfest in October. So I won't make the Bills game. Great food, jazz breakfasts, LaFayette Cemetery, Jackson Square, cool music spots everywhere.. They love their Saints down there.
