  1. Should've kept Scott and Incognito. I remember when Raiders fans were laughing that we signed Green, while many on this board were saying, "he's a veteran stop gap. He'll be ok, much better than what we had last season." Sadly, the Raider fans were correct in their assessment. This OL: LT-Bell/LG-Levitre/C-Wood/RG-Incognito/RT-Scott, looks better than: LT-Bell/LG-Levitre/C-Hangartner/RG-Wood/RT-Green.
  2. Can't really see TrINT talking trash on the field. He isn't that type of player and doesn't carry that sort of arrogant confidence. Now, I could see him asking an opposing DL to sit down and have a cup of tea with him; that's the TrINT Backwards that I know and despise. Maybe he talks about flowers, rainbows, and gumdrops, during the games, and opposing teams hate him for trying to bring their players to his level of "Charmin soft"..
  3. I know you have undying faith in your boy Trent, Dog, but I have to agree with the masses: this is one of the worst Trent defense arguments ever constructed on this board. According to you, Gailey could have told Trent, "Trent, I know we need a TD to win this game, but if you don't see anything open downfield, don't throw it. I would rather you run around in the pocket than risk an interception. People will use that interception against you weeks from now. On this last play, throw another check down to end this game. Let's go home."
  4. Given your choice - and your only choice is between these two - would you rather have a QB who only throws bombs (i.e. 40 yard passes minimum, time after time), or would you rather have a QB who checks down all the time (i.e. 0 - 5 yd passes maximum). Me..? Bombs away!!
  5. F*** NYC!! They'd rather show MIN and MIA, than another team in the same state?! Only time NYC shows the Bills, is when they play the Jets.
  6. I think he had a good work ethic and also the "want to" to become a great receiver, but he failed for the same reason many other athletes fail: instincts and confidence. Some are born with "it", but most don't have "it". Those who do not have "it" have to rely on their confidence. If a player cannot play the game, any game, with an arrogant kind of confidence, then he will NEVER succeed. I myself have wasted away hours upon hours in a basketball gym, practicing, trying to become a great player, but God just did not bless me with the mind to make the game easy. I have all the skills needed to play in the NBA (no joke), but not the mind that it takes to make it. If hard work and determination were the only caveats to play a professional sport, then many who previously failed would succeed. Simple summation: some are blessed, the rest aren't.
  7. Bingo. Gailey even said as much in his press conference. "You have to be able to throw the ball to get them out of that." You can't fault Gailey for not running the ball if every defender is within 5 yards of the LOS. The disrespect for TrINT was so apparent, that the Miami DB didn't even bother following Roscoe down the seam on the TD throw. Why defend players that run down the field if the QB has thrown nothing but 2-5 yd passes ALL game? Nix sees what we see, Gailey sees what we see, and we see what we've seen the previous 3 years: TrINT just doesn't have it. Rest assured, Gailey WILL NOT continue to blame himself for the lack of offensive execution. At some point, if TrINT's ineptitude continues, you will see QB2 step onto the field.
  8. I don't desire to be a beat reporter and as a fan of the Buffalo Bills, couldn't sit in the room during these press conferences. I wouldn't call those questions unprofessional, but rather forced accountability.
  9. They wouldn't want me as a reporter in those press conferences. Someone should've called TrINT Backwards out on that quote. "You said that you 'think' you want to score? What makes you less than certain in your assertion?" "Going back to last year, you seem reluctant to throw the ball up in Hail Mary types of situations. Are you worried about increasing the INT count on your resume?" "Do you have the freedom to audible out of running plays when there are 9 men on the line of scrimmage? If so, why don't you audible to a pass?" These are just some of the questions that I would like to ask if I had the chance..
  10. Are you sure we're capable of scoring 6 in Lambeau? Or do those points come in garbage time?
  11. Let's revisit this post after the season..
  12. If you go back and read that post, I didn't call anyone asinine, nor pathetic, for believing Levi Brown would be in demand. I merely stated what the rest of rational Bills fans observed: Levi Brown wasn't that good and if cut, would be available for the practice squad. If that somehow hurt your feelings, then you need thicker skin. If this is not possible, then buy a pair of "rational" glasses at your local Rx store.
  13. Did you have your milk and cookies today grandma? You seem a bit irritable.
  14. Asinine?! The only thing that was asinine, were your thoughts regarding our 7th round pick. Your assessment of the QB talent around the league led you to believe that Brown was a hot commodity? Better not try to become an NFL scout. The truth hurts.. your feelings.
  15. Sooo many posters here, were under the delusion that the entire league was waiting on hand and foot if/when Levi Brown got cut. "No they won't cut him!" "He is our QB of the future and if he's cut, he'll immediately be signed by someone else!" "They won't risk putting Brown on waivers, he's too valuable." "Bills can't stash him on the practice squad.. The entire league is watching the waiver wire for his name." And so forth, and so on.. I told the Brown fanatics, it was very likely no other team had a hard-on for Levi. Turns out, he hasn't even been named to a PS yet..
  16. No.. God hates the Bills.
  17. Do you remember the "big four"? Malcolm Kelly, James Hardy, Limas Sweed, Devin Thomas. What a weak group that turned out to be.
  18. Maybe it's because he got first downs in 3rd and ... situations and kept the offense on the field..? He also got out of a 1st and 20 situation, something that I don't remember Edwards EVER doing..
  19. Sorry, I just don't think the rest of the league has a woody for Brown like many of you think. If Brohm, a former highly touted 2nd round draft pick, could clear waivers and land on GB's practice squad, I don't think any other team is waiting to add Levi to their roster. He's a 7th round pick that hasn't exactly lit the NFL world on fire. No other team would replace any of their active roster players, with a project QB.
  20. Calling Troy Vincent. Calling Troy Vincent. You're needed at the QB. Thank you.
  21. I think Anthony Gray was a bigger preseason star than Lionel Gates and was dumbfounded when he was released. Then again, no other team ever picked him up and he was never given an option for the practice squad, so maybe they found out he had AIDS or something..
  22. This video has been circulating for awhile now. Anyway, they failed to test TrINT's true reaction time. He should have been hit by a DL/LB/DB/bird/random balloon flying around on the field, before the test was administered. Only then could TrINT's true reaction time be gauged..
  23. Oh, so we don't want him to magically rise and become the 2nd coming of Joe Montana? I'd put away my dislike for him really quick if that were to happen. As of now however, I wouldn't mind turning the page and giving our other QBs a chance to sink/swim - by other QBs, I mean Brohm and Brown.
  24. Has there ever been a player in NFL history, who has received as many opportunities as this guy has, yet continued to fail time and time again? TrINT is going into his 4th season and looks worse than he did as a rookie QB. There has been no progression. I refused to get giddy when all the camp reports were coming back, "TrINT is the man! He's so much more confident out there. He's a leader now." Yes, I realize it was the first preseason game, but I saw in TrINT the same thing I saw in him last year and the year before that and the year before that: Edwards takes the snap, looks immediately for his outlet receiver and throws a pass into his feet. On that third down pass that he threw to Lynch, he had an even better option open further downfield - a WR who would've gotten the first down. TrINT lulls you with his measureables only to disappoint you with his intangibles. I want the guy to succeed as much as anyone else, because I am a Buffalo Bills fan first and foremost, but I think we are in for a deja vu type of season. I hate to bring it up again, but we should've rolled the dice on Clausen at #41. He looked better orchestrating his 1st offensive NFL series, than TrINT looks as a 4th year player..
  25. We have sooo many RBs, that this is not that big of a blow at all.. Lynch is actually the more physically gifted of the two.
