Bob in STL

Not quite sure about that John. A swing tackle implies he can play both positions. Not sure how Pears would do at LT? He is not very athletic, footwork and balance could be a problem. He is decent at RT, for most teams he would be solid depth. Re-sign Bell, move Hairston to RT and have him push Pears, and bring in an legitimate talent on LT to challenge Bell. We are $25M below the cap, how hard is this for any decent Front Office?

Did you ever think that maybe, just maybe, Stevie and his agent are the ones waiting?

Makes a lot of sense. I am very disappointed in the recent play calling. Lets not forget that since the first Jets game, EVERY team jams our WRs at the line and we do not have an answer for it. We don't use motion, we don't use a fullback, we no longer have a TE. We go deep on short yardage situations and come off the field too soon. We abandoned the screens. No reverses, no draws, no options, not even a wild cat here and there anymore. I think we will find out Fitz is playing with a rib injury.

Dareus looks like a real NFL DL. Williams looked good too. Hairston can push for a RT spot. Searcy and Rogers are maybes. Just getting three solid starters out of this draft would be great. Not asking much when you look at the rest of the roster.

Easley WR - unproven, not a starter Parish WR - 3rd WR/slot - not a starter Merriman - OLB/DE - starter White LB - Not a starter Wood C - starter Williams DT - starter Jones - WR - starter (but really should not be) Mcgee - CB -starter but career on last legs Jackson -RB - starter Lindell - k -starter Troup - NT - not a starter Technically 7 starters but take away the kicker and McGee and Jones and you have 4 starters that make a really big difference. Jackson, Wood, Williams and Merriman. I think that Jackson, Wood and Williams are the best players on the team. Not sure, is Chandler on IR too?

We were not as good as we thought we were in September, and we are not as bad as we think we are now. This game is 50% mental and the rest is in your head. We lack leadership and players that hate to lose. Dareus has impressed me, being a rookie and giving the team a locker room speech is rare. Draft a few more like him, at any position, and we will get better. I think a better DC will help a lot too.

So Troup can maybe, possibly, be good someday? But never as good as Gronkowski? Right?

Problem 1 - They started with an marginal 4-3 defense and simply did not the right players to switch to 3-4 Problem 2 - The drafted some 3-4 players that are not very good Problem 3 - They don't really play in free agency, that cuts into nap time, so given the recent draft history this could take a long time Problem 4 - they hired a DC with limited NFL credentials Problem 5 - they hired a legit NFL DC and let him coach DE's that try, but cannot, play LB

Why stop at Gronkowski? You could make this statement about every player we ever drafted with the exception of maybe 6. Why not lament equally on all picks? Give us some new stuff to read.

My comments to Bill: 1) Marcel Dareus - looking good 2) Kelsay - one of our better players on defense, and that is a big problem. 3) Hairston - looked lousy. We need a LT. I see you finally agree. Hairston should push Pears at RT. 4) Moorman - the least of our problems 5) Spiller - not big enough 6) Fitz - looks hurt 7) Duprees diamond blues. (The Dead as usual) 8) No flag for pass interference just before the 1st half - pass interference has not been consistently called from game to game all year. 9) Stevie Johnson - very slow. I want to keep him and pay him well as a #2. Still not totally sold on his hands and like I said, he is slow. 10) bad Bufflo Bills football teams - every decade except the 90's have had some horrific Bills teams. Nix/Gailey will win 9 games in two years, making Jauron/ Brandon look like studs. 11) Hang tough people. - just wait till next year 12) GO BILLS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sigh . Fitz ... Ugh

I am sick of this crap. Been following this team since 64. This is worse than I can remember. My confidence in Buddy is low.

Think Buddy will say much about this disaster? I have not heard a peep out of him since week 8.

Ditto and Amen

We don't run in the second half. We are too busy catching up.

Who is the number 80?

Wow. Sad season once again. I am at a loss explain the lack of execution

Wow. Sad season once again. I am at a loss explain the lack of execution

Benched for who?

Pathetic once again. Lucky flag

Three and out. Did our defense adjust?? Spoke too soon.

Nice play by Dareus and Scott. Two guys that are trying.

The drive for 3 tells me two things: 1- sign Stevie for number 2 money. 2 - do not give the LT job to Hairston. Play Bell and bring in a legit LT.

We need a lot. Your point is taken.

All part of the nightmare that is this game. Hard to believe that just happened?
