But was it more of an insurance policy? IF JP doesn't work out, here's our fall back position. And maybe they felt there was a good chance the fall back position might work out better than JP, though I'd be real shocked if anyone thought he'd develop as fast as he has. What's happened with him kind of reminds me of how things started with Brady, except he played entire year, but not many other options as Bledsoe was still out. And he had a much better team around him.

I was listening on the radio tonight to Michael somebody (couldn't catch the last name) from SI. He was asked who his surprise teams are. He named BILL'S, Eagles, and Arizona. He then put Denver right behind them.

I don't disagree, but to the point of being worth top 5 money?? He doesn't have the "pedigree" for it YET.

At that point, JP still looked like he was developing, so taking a QB with 1st round, you have to plan to make him the starter, which I don't think the Bills felt they needed to do. So they took Edwards as a backup. It would be interesting to know if at the time and one in the Bills front office really thought within a year Edwards would be the starter over JP AND look as polished as he does. My gut tells me to some extent, they got lucky, but luck likely makes up over 50% of all the draft picks.

No way. Greers not that good. If the Bills were dumb enough to offer to pay Greer what is it, the top 5% of all CB's in the league, I'd sign that offer sheet before the ink ever dried. That only works if the guy you're tagging is worth top dollar. On the Bill's right now, the only one's I'd tag are JP (and not of the QB kind) and Mormann, maybe Evans and and probaby Edwards. Not that Edwards is worth it today, but QB's are hard to find. In Edwards case, he likely has at least two more years left, so you'll know way before his contract expires whether he's wort htop $$. My gut feel is, he will be. In a couple years you may add POZ, Lynch, and maybe Donte to that list.

Yeah, but because they did stop the clock to review, there was the possibility that Jax could have run another play. If the refs originally ruled down by contact with three seconds to go, Jax never would have had time to line up and run another play since the clock was running. However because the clock was stopped for trhe review then they set the ball down and wind down the clock. Tasker was implying that it would have been possible for Jax to snap the ball in that three seconds. Still would have been tough, but possible.

Yeah I was looking for a flag on that too

Seems to have died. Is it working for anyone else?

Well got to see a replay of their TD, greta hopefully it will hold out Thanks!

True, but I guess I don't feel like it makes alot of sense tp invest in the DVR for DTV whe nI still need to use an antenna. Plus CBS (which coincedently would be the feed of AFC games) is known in my area to have a very poor feed. So now I use an antenna and get snow, etc.

Not in HD. I'm in Wilmington NC, and no locals in HD so yeah I could get DTV, which I use ot have before I hada HD TV, watch the games on Sunday Ticket, biut for example last months Olympics, I either watch in Stand def through DTV signal or I use an antenna

So what is the "zone referred to a couple posts above?

Looking at the map. it looks like you'll be seeing the Bills, as Cocoa Beach is about due east/ slightly south of Orlando. Distibution map

I'm gettign the Indy Minn game here too in NC. I was afraid of that.

Gee, I wonder if Stroud may be a little bit fired up next week going back to Jax? Chambers looks like a solid backup lineman. Again have to give Bills FO credit for developing starters last year (can't think of his name the guard from Virgina??), now Chambers looks real solid too. Plus guys like Ellison. Granted only one game, but going up against pro bowler, for first start, he looked very good. That was what made Bills real good in early 90's all the late rounders who became significant players.

Yeah, this is working for me too. Actually I think the picture is a little better than the rack link, less buffering

I lost it too, infact when I click to restart, it redirects to rack111 home page. It drops the xsports part of the link everytime. Someone must have figured this out??

Yes the official may be looking at the QB, but the QB still needs to find where the offical is. So if they added two seconds, then they have 1st down at the 20 with 7 seconds to go. Do they chance running a play and something bad happning and no time for a FG, or do you still kick it, then have to kick off to Seattle with two seconds left?

So what does the Yahoo/NFL Gamepass give you. This is a tough year for me as mopved down to NC this past spring, so no TV games for me on local

Yeah same happening here. I've restarted it a few times

I'm watching on the internet, seen the 3rd down stop by Donte, then it freezes up, next thing I see is Roscoe in the endzone. Finaley did see the replay.

I think he's recoved from the injury, but I'm afraid his rehab may have mostly consisted of 12 oz curls and maybe some Nathan's hot dog eating contests to stay competitive. And maybe instead of playing cup cakes, he was eating them. That is my fear.

At the time I believe the reason the Bills went to Schobel was it was in their best interest as they wanted to immediate cap relief. In Peters case that isn't needed. Peters contract over paid him at the time he signed it, now he's underpaid, so it evens out. Once he signs his new contract he likely will be over paid the next couple of years, then will again become underpaid. You keep stating that the Bills have said all along they will not give him any money at all in 2008. Since you are always digging up articles to show your point, can you produce some articles from Feb, March, or even as recent as May or June that state in no uncertain terms that is their absolute position? I know the Bills have allegedly stated that in the past couple of weeks, which personally if I were running the team, at this point makes perfect sense. I state “allegedly” because even that is subject to interpretation, yes there articles that state that, but unless you were in the room when Brandon told that to Parker, who knows what that really means and also just means that is the Bills position today. It could change once he reports and plays some. After missing some much of camp, sessions in June, etc, Peters is likely to be behind somewhat anyway so it's unlikely he will have a year that benefits the Bills more than he's being paid anyway. There also is a large history of players who miss camp finally show up and quickly have a season ending injury. So makes sense not to pay him more right now. But I never heard the Bills state that had he come into camp in June for the mandatory sessions like Schobel had, they still weren't going to give him more money in 2008. It seems your taking the Bills recent statement and assuming that meant their position was the same back in May. It's very likely there has been talk between Parker and the Bills, but from the Bills side may have been asking when is Peters showing up cause until he does there is no need for further discussion. Now it's to the point that all discussions are about next year. My OPINION is if Peters had come to camp and he showed up in shape, there would have been discussions about a new contract. Would it be worked out by now, probably not. I'd imagine the Bill's would want to see him play some real games first to make sure he is fully removed and maybe by October or November, there would have been a new deal. But that strictly is my OPINION, based on no real facts, and no inside information. I however recognize it as an opinion. Your problem is you think what you're stating is fact. That's what annoys people to no end and causes you and others to call each other morons because you both think your opinion is based on fact. (and you certainly aren't the only one on this board to do this) And if you do a history of my posts you likely will find sometimes where I certainly have traded insults too with others. You as others, show articles to support your position but conveniently forget to post the other side of the article (as you were blasted for yesterday) This is a discussion board where people can post their opinions. And granted there are a few people here that do have some inside info, but ultimately even those with inside info are forming an opinion based on that, but nowhere is it absolutely factual!
