  1. I said this before Marcell was re-signed and was told by everyone here, "you keep your best players, no matter what." Nevermind the fact that Marcel played 63% of the snaps under Schwartz, If I was GM, he would've walked before I forked out $100M. He plays a non-premium position, one that doesn't consistently affect the outcome of a game; therefore, no team needs to invest that much capital for that particular position... Unless the player is Warren Sapp reincarnate, disruptive damn near every single snap.
  2. If it was the NFL, they'd convert the 3rd and 93 by penalty. "Prior to the pass, holding on the defense, number 58. Five yard penalty, automatic first down."
  3. I've always liked the Pack, wanted nothing more than to see them dust the Cowboys in the 90s playoffs. As for recently, I still believe had they won against Seattle (keep running the INT back!), they would've handled the Cheatriots in the SB. Go Pack go! Unless you're playing the Bills of course And Aaron Rodgers is our gift to you. You're welcome.
  4. It's not really fair to post a picture of Doug's wife after seeing Jordan's girlfriend, but here's Steph Whaley!
  5. Let's say you've been struggling with a subject: Mathematics. If I were your teacher and diligently worked with you to bring your understanding to a level equal to your peers, do you think you'd benefit more from the instruction if you went home and studied the concepts? Or do you think you'd be a better student if you went home and played Madden? Let's say you left the lessons at school and went home to do whatever you want - If you continued to fail in the classroom, would it be your teacher's fault?
  6. Whaley has a wife and a kid. She's not bad looking either. I remember them from a feature BB did awhile ago.
  7. Whenever life gets you down, just watch this video...
  8. Must say, Rande and the gang are outstanding people! I went to my first ever Bills game against the Cardinals and he made me and my guest feel right at home. Very hospitable. Can't thank you all enough for such a positive experience. Go Bills!
  9. He made a gargantuan mistake by returning to OSU. I'm sure he thought he'd beat out Braxton Miller and JT Barrett fresh off a National Championship win, but the chance he wouldn't was still a possibility. He costs himself millions, some team likely would've taken him in the first. I'd be surprised if he goes any higher than the 3rd, he's the very definition of raw and probably won't be able to help a team and decipher NFL defenses for at least two to three years. Take him in the 4th if there's not another prospect there that you love, but not before that round. I'm not convinced he'll grow into a productive NFL starter.
  10. Three players come to mind when reading these comments: Jerry Hughes, Aaron Williams, and Corey Graham. These three have never been shy about voicing their opinion and all have a certain status on the team that warrants inclusion of their thoughts. For my money, I think it's Jerry Hughes. He lines up opposite Mario, so Mario's lack of effort would also hinder his production. I've also heard him use the term "bell cow" in an earlier interview. If I was a betting man (which I am, haha), I'd put my money on Hughes.
  11. Take Cardel Jones in the 5th and develop him.
  12. Apologies to \GoBillsInDallas/ for infringing upon his area of expertise, but I thought I'd share some lovely sex offenders with you all. There are quite a few cuties on this list, but my absolute favorites are: 1, 8, 31, 39, & 42 http://www.cbsnews.com/pictures/notorious-teacher-sex-scandals/1/
  13. For anyone who missed Buscaglia's photo, that's Mario Williams being blocked by Darren Sproles. I repeat, Darren Sproles, one of the smallest RBs in the league. Mario, pick that little dude up and throw him into the QB!
  14. Wouldn't work, guys. Brady would just throw to the held WR anyway and immediately complain if a flag wasn't thrown. No way he'd hold the ball just because his WRs were being mugged.
  15. The Bills haven't been lucky at QB since taking a flyer on an aging one from the Canadian Football League. Also - luckily for the Bills - Tyrod and his agent have been eyeing the team for awhile now, stretching back to the 2011 NFL Draft.
  16. With his size and speed combination, I'm surprised no one has mentioned Adrian Peterson. Karlos runs just as angry.
  17. I'd like to see Karlos WIlliams moved back to the defensive side of the ball. Groom him as an OLB - he has the size/athleticism combination to be a beastly one.
  18. It's funny, Marshawn didn't have a problem giving interviews early in his Buffalo career. He would always speak and answer questions. Some people (mostly those outside of Buffalo) trace his malcontent behavior back to Cal, but it simply isn't true. Marshawn's hatred towards the media was born in Buffalo, when those reporters were grilling him about off the field issues; he got tired of dealing with those questions. I remember when the switched flipped and his attitude was "I don't want to be here." He carried that attitude and hatred with him to Seattle. Fred Jackson says he laughs every time he sees Marshawn do an interview nowadays. It has now become a part of him, an alternate personality so to speak. And he enjoys it.
  19. What I would like to see going forward: whenever a Buffalo QB is in the midst of a sack, just have him rooster his arm back and hit the defensive player on the crown of the helmet with the football. Incomplete pass every time.
  20. I wonder why Urbik wasn't moved to RG, his old position, and Erik Pears moved to the left. Traditionally, the right side of the line is run blocking (power) while the left is pass blocking (blindside protectors). Pears has the feet/build of a tackle. He should be moved to the LG position, playing between Glenn and Wood. Glenn - Pears - Wood - Urbik - Henderson
  21. We need some Buffalo Bills love in the movies. I'll tell you guys this: there's a script that made this year's Blacklist called, "Make A Wish" by Zach Frankel. It's about a cancerous boy's dying wish to get laid. Oh, and this 14 year old is the most annoying J-E-T-S fan ever. There's so much Buffalo bashing it's not funny. The Patriots (and Tom Brady/Belichek) also take more than a few licks, but the story made it quite clear that playing in Buffalo is the worse thing that can happen to one's playing career. Obviously this story was written by a Jets fan. Strangely, not a single mention of the Dolphins anywhere in the script. Anyway, we must root AGAINST this screenplay seeing the light of day! It wasn't that impressive anyway.
  22. Moatsie! Good luck in the arm Pitt.
  23. I was just saying in the shout box how this team doesn't have another starting quality 4-3 DE on the roster. If the Bills trot out Stevie and Woods in a 2 WR package, I'm not worrying. Our DEs are a weaker group than WR and could stand to upgrade there before any other position group.
  24. I typically don't have trouble making the distinction between a knowledgeable fan and a "fanboy." Agreement with one's position does not equate to "knowledgeable" fan. There are plenty of educated and knowledgeable fans who are part of this community, who often have disagreements. You can dismiss the opinion of the Ram fans, that's your prerogative, but when every comment comes back negative about a said player's departure, I have to invest a level of belief in what they're saying (Aaron Maybin). An opinion is just that - an opinion; but when all of those opinions come in on one side of the coin, I don't see how you (or anyone else) can dismiss those thoughts, or belittle the sources. Probably not much, as he barely saw the field. I'm sure they were calling him a bust. The distinction here is that Chris Williams has been a regular starter, hence, his play can be evaluated fully. Aaron Maybin didn't see the field much and was called a bust as well, but when he did step on the field, unlike Jerry Hughes, he was so out of his element, a RB put him flat on his back.
  25. I'd argue a fan forum is a more reliable source of information than an ESPN reporter; these are the people who watch 16 games per year. The ones who have a true pulse of the team and its players. Educated (and knowledgeable) fans are a resource and should be treated as such.
