They are trying to find something Mallet does well.

I doubt the Bills evaluate talent by reading random articles on the internet.

I would expect people in Chicago to underestimate the Bills since they have nothing to base their opinion on and clearly think highly of their team. I, on the other hand, am not a Cutler fan. It is just as likely, if not more so, that Cutler throws three picks in the face of six sacks. This would not be an unusual performance from him, and the Bills have a very good defense despite your concerns. I am more concerned about the offense, but in any case, this is a very winnable game.

It should not be a surprise to anyone that this group has no long term plan for Buffalo. No matter how they weasel word or play nice right now, the Toronto investors are not planning to put up $750m or more for their share to have football team in Buffalo. They, and the greedy tools of the NFL like Jerry Jones, have their eyes on a much bigger pie in Toronto. If they win control, the Bills are as good as gone once the current lease expires.

I know. Where is the local media when you need them. No gross overreactions to talk about today. Did he not miss a pass? Did he not seem upset, or too upset, or not upset enough? Did he not say something positive when he clearly should have been negative? How about his bowel movements? Is everything OK there? (I think Tim Graham should be assigned to get the scoop on that one)

And that was the point I lost most of the respect I had developed for Wawrow

The penalty is not an obstacle because this is a game that is played for the long term, not the short term. Any ownership group with determination to move the team could easily manipulate the situation toward relocation over the next 6 or 7 years. As for the owners, I would guess there is a fairly large contingent who would be willing to be led to the conclusion that Bills are not viable in WNY in the long term, and that much more money could be made in Toronto. The Bon Jovi Group is the major threat to the long term future of the Bills in WNY at this point and people should not be fooled by the current propaganda they are putting out.

Thanks for posting this CBF. I am sure many of us here share the same types of bonds with the Bills and you have represented us well.

I don't know if he is the bet coach ever, but you are probably right that if Belichick and Brady were Buffalo Bills, we would all love them. That, however, is not the case. They are hated rivals who have laughed at and disrespected our city and team, not to mention beaten us like drums. I for one do not respect Belichick even a little bit. I think he is an arrogant jerk, and a serial cheater. I may be jealous of New England's success, but that is far different from liking or respecting those two turds.

ESPN are clearly the kings of useless information. The self loathing of Bills fans knows no bounds.

Meaningless drivel, as usual, from PFT.

Always has been a legend in his own mind.

There is. You have an ignore feature in your settings which will block a tagged poster's rambling from displaying.

I think your memory may be eluding you. Lynch was never "great" on the bills. He was below average in fact, and in his last year here Jackson was clearly the better back. His production over the past three years in Seattle has been far better than any year he spent in Buffalo. When on the Bills lynch was an unmotivated, unhappy, underperforming player.

Logic and common sense will get you nowhere young man.

It's a player option which Spiller will no doubt void.

Mario Williams will make Cutler his b***h in that game.

It would be illogical to assume the Trust must take the highest bid. Ultimately the NFL must approve the sale and their criteria will encompass more than price. There will be many factors in evaluating the bids including both price and intention on eventual location of the team.

He is playing exactly the same position as he did last year.

This will not be run like a government bid. The trust will be free to negotiate with any or all the bidders trying to get the max value and best terms.

Don't kid yourself - Goodell will be a key player. Whatever owner/group is to get the green light from the owners, Goodell's role will be to line up the support, lobby the owners, work with the buyer to tweak proposals, etc. He plays a key role. I am not going to panic by his out of process meeting with one potential owner, but he can certainly steer this process, and I would not discount back room maneuvering and helping one or another group in the process that he thinks might best represent the needs and desires of the NFL. And no, I do not trust him, to answer the original poster's question.

Absolutely.

All of a sudden, I am very excited about the sale process.

I would not expect any formal announcements until the results of the bids and recommendations have been presented to the other owners. However, there will be lots of informal discussions happening with the league and key owners during the process so I would expect information to leak out over the course of the summer.

He had his best year ever last year. The talent around him certainly helps, but still, he was a disruptive force.
