Lucia’s in Hamburg has great recent rep. Left Bank is very good and cool atmosphere. Hutch’s is good, too.

Any list that does not have Robert James as the primo CB is not informed.
He wasn't just a shut down CB, he was a shut out CB.
Teams simply did not throw his way.
In my view, here are the musts:
Robert James
OJ Simpson
Mike Stratton
Bruce Smith
Tom Sestak
Thurman Thomas
Kelly, Josh Allen
Cookie Gilchrist
Joe DeLamielleure
Kent Hull
Billy Shaw
Andre Reed
Steve Christie
Special consideration Steve Tasker
Guys who have been mentioned that should not be:
Stew Barber
Don Beebe
Yeah there were entire games teams didn’t throw one pass Robert James’ way. Fans around the league didn’t even know much about him because you would watch a Bills game and never hear his name mentioned. He was that good. Sucks injuries cut his career in half.

Wasn’t Gilchrist a FB?
Yep. In general, in 1963 Ed Rutkowski of all people, then a rookie, was the main RB. In 64, it was Bobby Smith. Gilchrist was the fullback but the main ball carrier and threat. Just a great player.

1980 against the Dolphins. The Bills did not beat the Dolphins once in the entire decade of the 1970s. OJ never beat the Dolphins once in his Bills career. The Bills played great in 1980, one of their very best teams ever, and won the game 17-7. Joe Ferguson threw 5 interceptions but the defense came up big time after time, and the goalposts came down after the game.
The New England - Lawyer Milloy 31-0 shutout game is tough to beat for best played game but the Dolphins was most emotional.

Frankly, I don’t like when the national guys are high on the Bills and I don’t like when the national guys aren’t high on the Bills.

Maybe, but could he do it while also being a coke fiend like LT? I don’t think so.

You have to be pretty old to know how great he was, but Robert James was the best CB to ever play on the Bills and one of their very best players ever.

Was Milton Gabe Davis’s QB a year or two?

Amazing game. So many huge plays. Couldn’t get better.

Catcher
If Catchers had 300 pound superfreaks running full speed at them and trying to rip their heads off or crack their ribs every pitch, it still wouldn't be harder.

I agree with this, but I don't think I said anything that disagreed with it. I agree Kelce and Hill are better than Diggs and whoever, although Davis may turn out to be Robin to Diggs's Batman. And I agree that I would rather have Diggs and a great tight end than Diggs and a great #2. That's all true, but it's different from what I was saying, and what Logic said.
In the offense that the Bills have and the offense that the Bills run, a great tight end would not add that much production. Yes, Kelce would catch more balls than Knox, but Beasley and Sanders would catch fewer. Would the net be better? Probably. Would the difference be meaningful, particularly given who it would cost to get a Kelce. Probably not. As someone said, when you have the best passing offense in the league, how much better can you expect it get by adding a player?
It's nice to have a great tight end. It's nice to have a great QB. It's nice to have a great wideout. It's nice to have a great player at every position. It's nice, but it's unrealistic. You can't have it all. You have to make choices. In the Bills' case, investing in tight end talent is likely to offer a smaller return than investing in other positions. So, I can see why Beane hasn't chased after a tight end. Just like, by the way, Polian, who didn't see the need to chase after a top tight end when he had Reed, Lofton, and Beebe.
It’s not as though The Bills, Daboll, or any team or coordinator doesn’t like to use tight ends. It’s just that there are so few of great ones. If the Bills had Kittle or Kelce their offense would be built around Diggs and the TE, and the TE would get the second most targets.

The QB who threw 10 of them is a transfer from Michigan
First game throws TEN touchdowns. That's hilarious. This game is easy! He was, of course, the QB for Kelley in high school.

I think we collectively got a head start on week one.

Kevin Kelley, the high school coach famous for never punting, coached his first college game. They scored 84 points, including 12 passing TDs, 10 by one guy.
He also onside kicks after most scores but they were only 1-7.
Gotta love it.

If he continues his strong play like he has in preseason, in 4 years, that next car for mom will be a Porsche.
Yep. Can’t wait for that.
And it will be awesome when she hates it and wants a Lamborghini.

Yeah, I couldn’t swallow that sentence while he was with NE. Out of conference, it is easier to say. He’s hands down the best player in NFL history and it’s not close.
Everything about Brady is a good Buffalo story…if he played here. On and off starter in college. 6th round pick. Tells the owner on day one he’s going to be the best decision he ever made. Unseats Bledsoe. Wins a Super Bowl. Takes team friendly deals on the regular.
Buffalo hates Brady because he tortured us for a decade. But the boogyman is gone now guys. We don’t have to be scarred.
Buffalo hates Brady because he tortured us, he cheats, and he's a huge whiner and crybaby who always gets his way and still ***** about not getting his way.

Counting the yards running sideways, I’d agree.

It could be finding a white cornerback. WFT kept Troy Apke, the first white CB since Jason Sehorn in 2002.

I know Bills fans love to make it a competition between White and Bruce but White was that good.
”oh but he was and LDE and Bruce was a RDE in a 3-4 defense.”
Don't care.
Bruce at 20th of the all time players is perfectly fine with me. That’s damn impressive.
Bruce was a much better player against the run IMO and runs were half the plays in that era. He was as good or better than White all around.

The Bills actually have serious, often contentious pre-game discussions about certain fans’ neuroses, not wanting any competitive disadvantage or jinx during the games.

My favorite part about football is that questions like this have no meaningful answers. Apart from Left Guard vs. Right Guard, how many positions are really comparable? Which is harder, left tackle or slot receiver? It's like comparing insurance adjusters to veterinarians.
Excluding QB.

Considering that in any given year there are less than ten people out of 7.8 billion on Earth who are consistently great at it, I would hazard a guess that it is quarterback.
