Maybe the worst thread of all time? I dunno, it's not over yet...
-
And I also ask the questions of if the Bills are so bad, what have the Jets, Texans, Lions, Packers, Raiders, Titans, 49ers or any other team that didn't make the playoffs do in the offseason that makes them so much better then Buffalo that they are guaranteed a win against them?????
The Raiders beat the Bills last year, so did the Jets. They don't play the Titans or 49ers this year, do they?
The Lions have a talented roster and finally added a coach who will likely motivate them.
The Jets added the two best offensive linemen in the draft. The Texans added a coach who is a solid X's and O's guy, a Peppers-like defensive end and a strong number two WR to take the pressure off of the most underrated WR in the game (Andre Johnson).
You're right, we might beat the Packers. Then again, Favre is pretty good at embarassing young secondaries...

Good post. The guy definitely has a philosophy, which is more than can be said for many GMs. Time will tell whether it will succeed or not.
It does explain why this year's draft was so defense-heavy...

Good post Krazykat. You strongly encapsulate the way I feel. This team was absolutely horrid last year - as you point out, they weren't even competitive in many of their games. The coaching change to Jauron is a big question mark due to his inconsistent and somewhat unimpressive resume. Although I actually grade the Bills a bit higher than most in terms of their draft and free agency pickups, I still think their roster is at least 2 years away from actually being competitive with New England and Miami. This team has shown NO ability or character to go on the road and win against a halfway decent (or at least disciplined or motivated) team, which I think Baltimore, Detroit, and Houston certainly were or will be this year.
I love the Bills and devote a significant amount of time to watching, analyzing and reading about them. I want nothing more than for the Bills to climb out of the sess pool of embarassment they have been wading in for the last decade. But I am nearly positive that is not gonna happen this year. This team, with its glaring holes on offense (QB and o-line), and defense (straight up the gut) is not going to win more than 2-4 games. I'm sorry.

The problem is that the Bears are (and were) in the NFC Central.

I would love nothing more than to eat my crow with Frank's hot sauce.
I thought we'd go 4-12 last year, I guess I was pleasantly surprised...
The last time I predicted a winning season was two years ago, lo and behold...
Of course I hope PTR is correct. That would be amazing.

You do realize that every other team on the schedule is sure that they're gonna beat the Bills, don't you? And by the way, we're not gonna beat Houston, Baltimore, Green Bay, Detroit, Minnesota, or San Diego.
This team will be lucky to win 3 games. I'm sorry, go ahead and call me a horrible fan (Why even watch the games then, Coach Tuesday?), I don't care - there is almost no talent on this team. They are completely rebuilding and heading in the right direction, but this year is going to be brutal.

Let's hope he can block for himself, and tackle the other team's running back in the backfield...

Here is what gets me about this signing. All of the Miami articles talk about how Anderson is a better fit for Miami's offense than he would be in the new offense Fairchild is installing in Buffalo. But,
MIAMI IS GONNA BE RUNNING BUFFALO'S 2005 OFFENSE.
Hello! Mularkey is the OC. We know what offense he's gonna be installing, and guess what, Bennie SUCKED in it last year, in fact he was pulled during multiple games and single-handedly lost a game when they left him in there (the Pats game in NE). This signing is a fuggin joke.

Brad (NM): Why does Buffalo sign a bunch of scrub QB's when they can at least go through a season with a proven Vet like Collins?
Chris Neubauer: Because Dick Jauron is the head coach. When he was with the Bears he had scrub quarterbacks named Jim MIller, Shane Matthews, Cade McNown. When he was the head coach for a few games in Detroit last year he had scrub QBs named Joey Harrington and Jeff Garcia. Wherever Dick Jauron goes, scrub QBs follow
(I especially like the last line.)

Carwell Gardner is due for a MONSTER year... on the pie-eating circuit.

Graham sucks, awful hands, key drops at key times... the Pats liked him so much they drafted Ben Watson in the first round to replace him.
-
Lelie will be going to the Eagles.
The Bills have no interest in either player, says my source.
My source is my butthole, but he's always right.

Wonder if the Bills were in the mix for Jonathan Sullivan, then pulled the trigger on Watson when the Pats got Sullivan.
Also, sorta unrelated, PFT says Justin Smiley may be available from the 49ers, if the Bills are still in the trading mood...
-
Euhus was a guy Mularkey wanted, to run MM's piece-of-crap five-yard curl-out on-third-and-nine offense. The guy was never a physical blocker and didn't show much on special teams. A one-trick pony who didn't fit this offense that needs blocking tight ends.
Watson should at least provide depth, and I'll bet he turns into an above-average special teams player.
Saban tried to trade for Watson last month, didn't he?

....but we even used a 1st rounder this year on the D line.
We are doomed to never be able to stop the run.
Not only did we take a 1st rounder but brought in a FA.
What does that do to the philosophy????
With such an incoherent philosophy the players on the D line are bound to be totally confused, lose faith, slack off & generally not be any good.
If only the new management had some sort of consistency in their approach to the team.
Well, I'm not blaming THIS front office for the lack of talent along the lines, sorry if my post implied that. I most certainly blame Donahoe's regime for that. Levy and Jauron appear to understand the problem, but they are a couple of years away from being able to fix it. In the meantime, a new offense AND defense is being installed, with a ton of holes on both sides. Also, in the meantime, what I'll call "character rebuilding" is gonna be taking place - i.e., jettisoning the turds on this roster who just don't care too much about winning. (Cya, Lawyer). It's gonna take awhile to rebuild this roster, and the results will be ugly at first. I'd love to be optimistic, and I think overall this organization now is heading (or at least pointing) in the proper direction, but next year is gonna suck ass.

Krusty: So he's proactive, huh?
Lady: Oh, God, yes. We're talking about a totally outrageous paradigm.
Writer: Excuse me, but 'proactive' and 'paradigm'? Aren't these just buzzwords that dumb people use to sound important? Not that I'm accusing you of anything like that. .....[pause]..... I'm fired, aren't I?
Myers: Oh, yes! - The rest of you writers start thinking up a name for this funky dog; I dunno, something along the line of say... Poochie, only more proactive.
