It's my turn to make predictions for 2006.
First let me say that you cannot underestimate Marv Levy's contribution to this team. He will make many detractors eat their words in a couple of years. Just like a great football team isn't always made up of the best individual players, this coaching staff may not look impressive one-on-one. But it's obvious they work well together, and more importantly, send a clear message to their players.
So the Bills are on their way, but still have far to go. The Bills team that breaks camp won't be anywhere near where they need to be. JP will still be learning the job, the O-line will need time to gel, and our young secondary will get torched a few times.
That's why I think the first half of the season will be like an extension of training camp. The Bills will be learning some hard lessons, and will probably wind up losing 5 or 6 of their first 8 games.
But watch out after the bye...
I predict by midseason, it will all start to click. The Bills schedule after the bye is W-E-A-K!! Of course at this point no one will be paying attention to the Bills, so no one will notice when they start stringing together wins. By week 15 the pundits will be amazed when the Bills will be within striking distance of a wild card. I think 9-7 is doable. That may or may not be good enough for a playoff spot, but by the ned of the year, the Bills will look like a very strong football team.

Disclaimer: My opinion has NOTHING to do with Jerry's comments concerning the Bills' personnel.
Jerry Rice is BRUTAL on the radio. I tried to listen to him a few times and had to turn the channel. He has done NO research on the Bills, I guarantee. Any opinion he gives will be from the standpoint of a primadonna HOFer. He will support veterans (i.e., friends) and talk up those with whom he has had personal relationships.
...and he's a $h!tty dancer!

I think the Bills will start off rough, but will the NFL's surprise team in the second half of the season. 9-7.

I am familiar with Shoutcast, and a number of server companies that would distribute the stream. It wouldn't cost that much. All I need to do is to make the commitment of time. Keep in mind, that this wouldn't sound like ESPN Radio...more like Wayne's World of Sports!

This is an idea that had been tossed about. The problem is how to create an audio program when all the members are scattered around the world. I had toyed with the idea of hosting my own TBD Bills talk show, broadcast online. Since I only have one phone, it would be hard to have more than one guest, much less callers. And of course, who am I to be the spokesperson for TBD?

Absolutely Holcomb, or Nall for that matter, could get cut. The Bills are not going to pay big bucks to a #2 and #3 QB. Expect the loser of the #2 job to be let go, and a cheaper, younger #3 brought in. Probably not Kingsbury.

Well SD did let go of a proven veteran QB in Brees who is still in his prime to hand the job over to an unproven, yet highly-drafted player. That's a big gamble for the Chargers and a lot of pressure on Rivers.

I believe the word is spelled: BREAKTHROUGH

I haven't seen the game yet. I will record the game on my DVR (3am?? Thanks NFL Network!) and watch it later.
But from what I gather , the O-line had another bad night. So I ask: Is the problem that all the Bills linemen stink, or one or two slackers dragging the entire group down? I guess we need to also ask: Is McNally the O-line genius he was touted to be?

People forget that Jim Kelly had a full mastery of the Bills ofense, and had the poise to read a defense at the line of scimmage, then call the appropriate play in an audible. You kind of need those skills to run a No-huddle full time.
So you are saying you want to put even more pressure on Losman? Not only does he have to read the D, he has to pick the right play at the line scrimmage??? Yeah, rrrigghhht!

Even if you are rebuilding, the attitude has to be "win now" for the players. If they believe they can win, they will. I've said it a hundred times...our schedule, especially after the bye is EASY!! If Jauron has this team clicking, we are going surprise people.

Blame it all on some janitor who said "hello" to him in the hall and broke his concentration. Now see what happened!

Borat always says "Jen-koo-yeh" which if you are Polish you know means "thank you." Of course Borat is supposed to be from Khazakstan. I'm not sure if they use the same word. (FYI: "Yak-sheh-mahsh" means "how are you" or "how you doin'" in Polish.)
Sacha Baron Cohan must have balls of pure titanium. He obviously puts himself in situations where people don't know he's kidding. Nice swim suit, by the way.

It's tough to trade a guy when the other team knows you have to cut him for $$$ reasons. That's why walking away from Dumont is all they could do.

I understand the Patriots locker room hosts many "sausage-fests!"

If you do not have your tickets in time for the first pre-season game, call the Bills and have them "e-mail" you your tickets for that game. But make sure they don't charge you the $3.50. They owe it to you for being late.

It's only the Patriots 5th pre-season game. They'll be ready for when the season starts.

From everyone.
Someone write a report on how quick Losman gets the ball out, how fast he is making decisions. I have yet to see that report. All I read about is the 1 or 2 deep passes a practice.
If he is not getting the ball out quick in practice he wont in games.Losman throwing deep or completing a pass does not show anything. He has to start making the quick decisions in practice.
Holcomb is very decisive when he throws. He knows at the start of each play he's going to his outlet receiver 1yd downfield. Bills fans can point to Holcombs stellar completion percentage every week after we lose. "Hey, Kelly went 20 for 24 for 18 yards! Woohoo!"

If Holcomb is named the starter, you might as well cut all of our WR's because we'll be running 98% of the time.

I don't see how a QB with limited throwing range gives you the best chance to win. I'd take my chances with JP or Nall before I start Holcomb.

What year is it?
Sorry. My species perceives time differently then yours.
