Well said.

The only place the potential trade of CJ Spiller exists is in the mind of some ESPN talking head who concluded that since the Bills have 4 Running backs they might look to trade Spiller. There is absolutely nothing behind it. Spiller is going nowhere, at least this year.

Perhaps not. I have not been to the practices so I cannot really measure what he says. It just seems to me that his reporting on Manuel has taken on the characteristics of a "drumbeat". It has been clear for quite a while that he does not think highly of EJ and I think it clouds his observations. I do enjoy his reports by in large and like his All 22 breakdowns in season, but I think he is looking for negatives on Manuel as a rule. Just my impression. That said, perhaps EJ really did suck today, but I will wait for reporting other than Joe B and Rodak to come to that conclusion.

I am not sure I take Joe B seriously anymore on his reporting of Manuel. He seems on a mission. Maybe not, but it seems that way. I have never taken Rodak seriously.

JFF for Tuel straight up - done!

Exactly. Hoyer is not going anywhere. Grossman is insurance and mentoring.

He has not played in two years and I am sure the Browns are hoping he does not have to play there either.

I live in the DC area as well and would concur with your assessment. Snyder has kept his hands off for a while now. The most recent problems to me have been all Shanahan(s).

He may well have come down with that ball in the HOF game if the DB did not have a hold of his right arm. He just could not quite get a second hand on it.

But didn't Millner just proclaim himself to be the best CB in the league?

I believe the first run against the Panthers the other night was between the tackles and went for a significant gain. The knock that he cannot run between the tackles is a bit of misnomer, although he is certainly not a power back. He (and anyone else) does need at least some blocking to occur. That was the major problem last year.

The Redskins and Patriots did the same thing last week. No one died.

Disappointing coming from a team leader I would hope he would deal with this with Marrone directly rather than through the press.

It is preseason. Not sue which game you watched last night.

That would be a conservative estimate. Ditto for Denver.

Bills fans are filled with self loathing and misguided envy of other team's mediocre players.

This is the right idea, but probably doomed as envisioned. Too difficult politically and too expensive.

There were always numbskulls calling for Frank Reich to start when Kelly was the QB. Not a small number either.

I predict you will feel better when you are sober.

You are bad.

He is in an especially PMS mood today because the Coach would not answer his questions. Wahhhh.

Amen.

I disagree with your take bolded above. It is not Marrone's job to calm down the media and the fans. It his job to motivate his players and teach them how to win. Whatever his motivations for playing Hogan ahead of Woods in the slot, and I am sure he has his reasons, he is certainly not obligated to explain them nor make any comment on this outside of internal team discussions. Yes, we are left to speculate, but so what? I applaud him for keeping his player management decisions out of the media frenzy. People should remember that Woods moving to the slot is a new position for him. Perhaps they don't like his approach to it, or don't think he is quite there in technique yet and are trying to enhance his motivation to do so? Who knows. I would be surprised if he is not the starting slot receiver on opening day in any case.

Gundlach ownership would not really be a good thing IMO, although a fallback of Golisano/Gundlach is probably better than the alternatives. However, I think the Trust and the NFL would much prefer a single owner with all the cash than any group offer. Much cleaner. This is Pegula's to lose I believe.

I heard this as well and thought this was the right take. I really do not care what he says anymore - it is about results on the field. He was equally short and snippy in the PC after the game. Good for him. Just teach them how to win, and all will be right with the world.
