I wore my "MAYBENEXTYR" shirt for the first time this year (it was a gift from my son a few years ago). Next week I break out my Maybe Next Year engraved mug for the beers.
Oh and I live in Dallas area.

Act like you have been there before, son.

Offense : Left guard (and arguably one of the best in the league) playing left tackle, back up guard playing what was one of the stronger positions Center now hurt.
Defense: The only pro-bowler on the team other than punter out for the year.......
Lack of depth is problematic for sure. But two left tackles down and your stud nose tackle out is difficult to overcome.
BTW. Hairston was dressed today.

I always said I would not give Jerry one stinking penny. With free tickets and parking pass I can keep that promise (mostly). Just might have to spring for a round or two
Really exciting to be that close to my beloved Bills. I just hope Chan has his head out of his butt this week. Dallas secondary is suspect along with their run defense so I am hoping for big day from Freddy and Fitz. Speaking of Fitz. My cousin's son runs a print shop in Buffalo. He created a T-shirt and sent me one. It will be worn to the game tomorrow.

I tell you, not all in-laws are a problem......... My brother-in-law gave me his 4 tickets + parking pass for the game tomorrow. I will be going with my two sons (28/26) who are life long Bills fans (thanks to me). Also, as luck would have it, a life long friend from Amherst happens to be in town for the birth of his grandson will be going with us. Go Buffalo!!!!!!!

I am not convinced he is first round material but certainly worthy of consideration for 2nd or 3rd. He IS a gamer and is very intelligent. He has a great group of receivers and the Aggies are a threat to run every play. Sherman is running a pro style multiple wide receiver offense very similar to what we run. Tannehill does a pretty good job in it. I would be on board drafting him in round 2or 3.
As for Von Miller, you my friend are spot on my opinion. I watched Von every game. He is quick and quite often was involved in a game changing play. But his size scared me for the NFL. After seeing Maybin as an under sized Speed rushing DE, I was scared the Bills might select after the hype right before draft day. Yes, thank you very much Denver. Darius is truly what we needed to fix the run.
And yes I am an Aggies fan. They took a good chunk of my retirement savings to educate my son. But the investment netted me an awesome Aggie daughter in-law. Gig 'em.

And a extremely well educated grown man.

I don't think they really knew what a gem Freddy really was. They did pick the best player available i.e. Spiller. It is comforting to know he is in the backup role should Freddy need a week or two off. Running backs are historically injury prone. You just cannot have enough of them. I think we will see the fruits of Spiller, albeit not as soon as a 1st round pick would normally be expected to contribute. But that day will come. Although I wish Freddy could continue to perform at his current level for another 3 or 4 years............... It is unlikely to happen. Enjoy the Freddy show now and prepare for the Spiller show in the future.

I think that this game will very much be the test we expected last week, momentum can be a deciding factor. It looked like our rush D has greatly improved, yet we got burned on the edge 4 times again. Only one of those was due to à missed tackle. The big danger with mcfadden is edge. Contain the edge is going to be à huge factor.
Also our oline will be put to the test for real. Fitz does seem to be decent in situations like that though.
Homefield, timezone advantage and normal prep time gives us the bookie advantage, still this has tight game written allover.
Kelsay = REAL edge liability!!!!

Amen to number 1.

Poz was a huge fan favorite but the reality of the situation was just as you described. He can't cover TEs and RBs. To many times he was on the wrong end of a highlight clip. I'm trying to remember exactly but Buffalo gave up TDs to opposing TEs for 5, 6, 7 or more weeks straight at one point last season. Poz was got burned by every one.
Poz and 'lil Donte got burned a multitude of times. Both are gone now. Bigger really is better.

And to know we took this guy from one of the greediest SOBs in the league makes it even sweeter. Every time he caught a ball I said thanks Jerry.

I thought Trent Edwards was a failure as a quarterback too.
But I tend to think that it's a tad unfair to blame him for all of the problems we're having on defense almost three months after we waived him.
Granted his suckitude infected the entire roster but at some point, we have to stop pointing fingers at the glove-wearing Mary and direct our wrath elsewhere.
wrong Edwards.............

Not having to listen to a coach, the leader of the team, describe how it is hard to win in the NFL

Sorry but can't let this go. You are an idiot. I am guessing you have not completed high school (although you should have 20 years ago). Being a tough guy gets you far in life..............
It's the parents fault for putting him in a bad situation.
OF COURSE HE GOT HARASSED, HE WAS WEARING THE OPPOSING TEAMS JERSEY!
Maybe for their next trick, they can dress him up as a KKK member and drop him off in the ghetto and see what happens.
To be clear I'm not saying the kid deserved it.
I am saying it is so 100% completely predictable that he would get harassed that the parents should never have dressed him up as a Jet and taken him there in the first place.
What terrible parents. Worst parents ever. You've got a crybaby mom who makes a huge deal out of it and writes a letter to the paper just so she can get a moment in the spotlight. Now all the other kids at school know he is a crybaby and his mom is a crybaby and his dad is a wuss and he will get ridiculed badly over this. That is certain. His dad is a spineless wimp who lets strangers physically abuse his son right in front of him in the parking lot and doesn't do anything about it.
This poor kid has no chance.

I still remember the classic statement from Trent "We didn't prepare for the 3-4 like we should have". Probably paraphrasing a bit. So please do not flame me...... ah go ahead

One thing that was missing from our usual NE* debacle was the lack of Wilfork blowing up nearly every play and creating his "take it to the bank" turn over. Did our interior line play improve that much, did the coaching staff intentionally keep plays away from him? Or has he declined that much. I did not pay particular attention to this detail but would love to hear specifics or theories.

On the bright side. They sure did help the economy by dumping this wad!

Born in Lockport in 1956.
Raised in Clarence and graduated in 1974.
Went away to college and left Buffalo area after graduation (due to employment).
I have never been able to move back to Buffalo but my heart will always remain there.
I have never (lived in Bradford, PA. Cleveland, Detroit and Toledo, OH) been able to find subs, pizza or wings that compare to Buffalo.
Will go to my grave as a proud Buffalonian that supports the city and its sports teams.
Hey Toledo Bill. I too graduated from Clarence in 1974. Does your last name start with a M?

Received a #12 long sleeve shirt with a customized name on the back............... MAYBENEXTYR

"Maybe next year" has become a joke in my family.
Last year I received, from my two sons, a very nice Bills Beer Stein customized with an inscription that reads "Maybe Next Year".
This year I received for my birthday a really nice Bills (NFL) long sleeve shirt. Apparently now you can have your own name or what ever put on it. Mine reads MAYBENXTYR
Three options exist, cry, laugh, drop 'em like a hot rock.............. I choose, yet another year, to laugh. Having to put out the kind of cash for NFL Sunday ticket is really starting to sting..... never mind the 3 hours of watching a hopeless team and the countless hours afterward grieving for yet another ugly game and loss. I must admit the grieving is becoming very short lived. Expectations are so low, it does not hurt so much any longer.
Merry Christmas everyone and MAYBE NEXT YEAR!

I'm thinking maybe they brought him in to hurt that dirty SOB Wilfork

By golly that makes sense. Ralph would not normally be in the "team" photo would he? I think we have a winner. Very simple they put Ralph's head on Jauron's body.
Ya Jarius Byrd's one arm is way smaller than the other. Ralph looks photoshopped in place of Jauron. -
But you have to admit it was nice to hear a coach say he was going to chew someone's ear off for their mistake...... Not just it's hard to win in the NFL.............................

Before laying the blame on Perry, I would bet my paycheck that Perry is following "no balls" dick's directive.
