  1. EJ can manage a game and he doesn't turn the ball over. We were in trouble last year because our Oline was horrible and we didn't have a SINGLE hundred yard rusher ALL YEAR, not just because he wasn't playing well. If you build a strong Oline and run behind them, get some easy YAC with short passes, bubble screens (Sammy can run the crap out of those) etc., we should be just fine. The sky isn't falling. EJ has played 12 games and they have not all been awful; he is serviceable. Too many people want us to somehow feature a team with an Offense like the Greatest Show On Turf and simultaneously a Defense like the 85 Bears, that's not gonna happen.

  2. Not just a PR stunt. I thought he played well enough in preseason to make a team. Rams were deep at DE. He projects better as a strong side LB anyways.

     

    Many more areas to worry about on this team than LB but either Lawson or Rivers are likely to be cut - maybe both.

     

    YOU went about selling the move as "anti-Incognito." That's pretty much the definition of a PR stunt.

  3.  

     

    sounds like an argument Richie might make.. dismissing his critics as over-sensitive, effeminate extremists, who don't know how a 'real man' behaves.

    all i can say is, had that been my daughter in Miami, this 'over-sensitive, effeminate extremist' would be in a Florida prison right now for bashing his fat face in with a 30" piece of sched 80.

    and since your post stinks of homophobia, let me ask the million dollar question.. other than hookers and victims, where's are the women in Richie's life? think about it, Einstein

     

     

    I should point out that in your crusade against a man who has largely been vilified due to the written evidence of his threats, you have threatened him in writing with physical violence yourself.

  4. The one place where Richie excels beyond those reprobates is ripping apart a locker room. I've coached teams with athletes who felt it was their job to bully and harass their teammates. I hated them for it, and their parents for allowing it. To me, Richie is the lowest of the low. It's just my particular hot button.

     

    Understood, but these are grown men Jockstrap. Are YOU gonna let someone bully you IRL? Cause I sure as hell am not. I always had a hard time with the Martin thing. Is Incognito a pathetic man-child? Yes. But the notion that a single person or group of people can still bully ANYONE who is a grown man is incomprehensible to me. I don't see our locker room tolerating his antics, so he should fall in line. If he's not disrupting the locker room I could care less about the person he is as long as he is contributing to a better O-line.

    EJ is going to have to wash out of the league and take up insurance sales before a certain contingent on this board will give up on the EJ crusade.

     

    It's OK though. EJ won't be around the NFL a ton longer.

     

    I don't really see how believing your 1st rd QB who had to learn the game under an incompetent HC (in regards to offense) should get a chance to play, should really be described as a "crusade"

    Most penalized teams in 2014:

     

    1. Seattle

    2. New England

     

    Most penalized players in 2014:

    1. Browner - NE

    2. Bennett - Sea

    Sorry, you were saying something about penalties losing games?

     

    According to this site, Incognito has not led the league in penalties in any year on or after 2009, but it doesn't go any farther back than that. So even if penalties did lose games, which they don't seem to, you're clinging to very old history to claim that Incognito is a league-leader in penalties.

     

    Would you also not accept Browner or Bennett on your team? What about Richard Sherman? Russell Okung? These players on championship teams all have more penalties than Incognito in his last full year, 2012.

     

    Here are Incognito's penalties from 2012, when he was somewhere around 60th in the league in penalties:

    Offensive Holding (4), Unnecessary Roughness (2), False Start (1)

     

    Here's the same for Russell Okung, 2012 pro-bowl LT (a pro-bowler that year):

    False Start (8), Offensive Holding (5)

     

    Clearly, Incognito is history's greatest monster.

     

    Excellent post! Ladies and germs, that's how you drop the mike and walk away.

  7. Hard to believe someone really had inside info if they said "Next time I won't share it"

     

    Inside info if you really have is something you want to get out ASAP so you can be the first. That is the competition of inside info to get it out first. That is why you never believe someone who says they will stop...

     

    Dude, you were one of the harshest posters to the dude even after it came out he was right. The point is-cool it. The rest of us would rather get inside tips than hear your opinion on why someone needs to prove anything to you.

  8. Everyone in the NFL is hyprocrticial. It's hypocritical to call out others' hypocrisy.

     

    Excellent job comparing apples to oranges. "I don't think that word means what you think it means."

    Is Hughes a hypocrite for saying he's never heard of a hometown discount? Nope, he's being honest-he wants money.

     

    You made a terrible point, but I'm beginning to see a trend here. I'm going to stop pointing out all your logic and argument errors because at this point it's a rarer event for you to make a cogent insightful point.

  9. He didn't know that. At the time, it was best for Marrone to opt out for pure financial reasons.

     

    Love him saying that players should shut up. He's on point.

     

    When faced with 2 choices in life you quite literally ALWAYS make the wrong decision don't you? Players should shut up? Why, because your man-crush can do no wrong? A coach who made a point of preaching family and community made an intrinsically selfish decision that hypocritically went against everything he claimed to stand for...players have a right to say whatever the hell they want after that.

  10. I just dislike that they got chump change. When they're not chumps. A homeless bum is a chump.

     

    Who cares what kind of contracts they signed. Contracts can be bent. Not all the jills were high rollers.

     

    Pay them 16 thousand per season each. Do the math. It's not much. 16k times 25 girls is 400k. In the scheme of 100+ million annual salaries. This is not even a half of a percent....

     

    Someone is being cheap.

     

    This post made very little sense logically and grammatically.

     

    ... You know that line between interested and kinda creepy? You're blurring it.

  11. An overgrown kid that's been arrested for running over a lady and driving away, felony gun possession, and DUI on 3 separate occasions during his pro football career. I have a hard time siding with a guy like that. Unless he's a Bill. :D

    With that said I'd love for him to stampede the Patriots and break some Superbowl running records this Sunday.

     

    Written like someone who has heard of the incidents but never bothered to actually look into them. Seems about par for the course here.

  12. Talking up any of our realistic QB targets is kind of like putting a bow-tie on a turd. Barring a miracle trade for someone unexpected (after which people will invariably complain we gave up too much) we will see EJ at QB for the Bills again next year.

  13.  

     

    I would argue Sexton didn't botch this, Marrone did...he went "off the reservation" as soon as he opted out, blowing any chance he had to land another HC job. Sexton has been pumping positive stories through his national contacts and other clients like a madman.

     

    Of course, knowing the egomaniac Marrone is, he probably blames Sexton for all of it, but can't fire him because, you know, he got him that free $4M and all...

     

     

    Agreed. "Let's get you out of Buffalo, I've got everything set up with the Jets" turned into "why the hell did you have to pull that move with Polian and give everyone the impression you're a vindictive loose cannon." Sounds like Marrone had a situation ready to walk into and his ego and petty nature took him out of the running in NY. That and Saint Manish, who made many of my days with the vitriol he directed towards Doug.

     

     

    The "positive stories" have been viewed universally as too little and too late. Marrone absolutely can and should at least consider firing Sexton.

     

    Marrone shot himself in the foot. This comments makes it seem like you're unaware of how the Jets situation played out in the media...except I know you are familiar with it because I've seen you comment on it.
