  1. Well said. Do not ask about McCargo, you won't find any insights here. I wrote here a few days ago that I was concerned about his lack of hustle in practice (as reported in the media) and folks here tried to lecture me that he was "raw". As if being raw has something to do with a lack of hustle.
  2. That is a very cool website!
  3. I'm not worried that McCargo lacks ability. I know he does. I'm not expecting immediate domination. I know it takes time. I'm not trying to stir the pot about Marv's picks. We all know the man can do no wrong. My point was simply that it would be reassuring to hear DJ say something more positive about his 1st round pick. And hearing that he got yelled at by PF for a lack of hustle IS a concern that nobody else seems to be bothered by. ??? Most of you seem to be happy to have a 1st round pick work in as a rotation guy on the DL. That's good news for McCargo, but I have to disagree with that. I think we need more than just a rotation guy out of a 1st round pick.
  4. OK, correction - it was Denney and Kelsay that were switched from the left side to the right, not Denney and Anderson.
  5. Am I the only one who is getting the sense that McCargo is not wowwing the coaches so far? Recent comments by Jauron seem to be very tentative in their praise for him. DJ obviously didn't want to be negative but wasn't overly positive either - something to the effect that "he's coming along". I also read today that he's getting yelled at a lot by Kollar, just yesterday for watching the end of a play and not diving on a lose ball. Yesterday DJ was discussing the sliding of Denney and Tim Anderson over to the right side and praised them by saying (paraphrasing here) "you will not find harder workers than those two". Maybe a backhanded slap at McCargo? Some of my perception also may be based on all the early praise for Kyle Williams, who was drafted 4 ropunds later than McCargo. But much of that comes from his performance against the Panthers - which reminds me that we didn't hear much from McCargo in the game. Anyone else picking up the same vibes about McCargo?
  6. I agree. Especially the part about so on and so forth.
  7. My signature line says it all. And has for a year now...
  8. You don't really think Clayton or, God forbid, Salisbury, have any insight into this situation, do you? It's called filling airtime.
  9. Are you gunning for Murph's job?
  10. I'm trying to follow by radio but any word on McCargo?
  11. I guess I'm the only one who finds video of Marv working out, laugh-out-loud funny.
  12. I agree. I would also submit that the coaching staff may be protecting their real starter by starting Holcomb. If you were, for the first time, rolling out your brand new offense with a rebuilt line against one of the league's top defenses (and DL's), you might consider saving your "A" player by playing him second, especially in the first preseason game. By almost all accounts JP has outplayed Holcomb in camp, so to read into this decision that Holcomb is the starter is just wrong.
  13. You live in Northern NJ and you can't pay $30 for an NFL Field Pass subscription?
  14. What cracked me up about Marv's role in the Whitner negotiations was that he called Whitner two times (at least) to say "gee, you really should get in here", like he was a neutral third party. It's like buying a new car and the owner of the dealership comes in and tells you that, gee, the salesman is giving you a good deal and you really should take it. Of course Whitner says "when Marv talks, you listen" because he has to now that he's signed, but when Whitner hung up the phone with Marv and called his agent, I'm sure they had some good laughs about that.
  15. Ah Ha!!!!! NOW I know who wrote the collective bargaining agreement!!
  16. So this was from a guy who sells ties to JMac? Seriously, what does "ties" mean? We've been down this road before.
  17. Do we have any confirmation that this is in fact the case?
  18. Several years ago I lived in the NYC area. I recall emailing Larry Felser to see if he could tell me where I could find a Bills bar in town. He never wrote back. Guess that shows how out of touch he was with the fans, even way back then (either he didn't know, or didn't care enough to answer). Thank God we now have Sunday Ticket!
  19. Sorry man but I couldn't make it through the whole thing. Was looking for more game replays and less bar talk. It's really about Bills fans and the McFadden's experience than about the Bills. But that part was OK I guess, just some misleading advertising about what the subject was.
  20. Any pix available of what they look like?
  21. OK, I forget. Just how many games has Fairchild actually called plays in?
  22. I actually liked the black and red evil goathead. The blue and gold is ugly IMO.
  23. I liked the last play where he sacks the QB, who was looking back at his own end zone. Yeah, that was realistic.
  24. Incredible! The body of Bennie Anderson and the hands of Josh Reed.
  25. Ticket Sales Coordinator - isn't that what Donahoe used to do?
