I love this kid. He is going to be great (barring injury). But a RB at the top of the draft just isn’t worth it. If I was nyg or ind, if think differently, but you don’t trade up for this kind of player. Cleveland taking him #1, then following up with a QB at #4 scares me! They might actually break this funk they are in.

I love this kid. Great player. Great guy. I expect him to be the best back in the nfl in short order. But it it’s not what we need. Good backs can be found later. I’d rather we pick up Michel in the 3rd round or something like that.

His guy was not good as a DC at Penn State. He is a Bill O’Brien guy (at Penn State and Houston) and O’Brien finally canned him last year. Im not a fan of this hire, but hopefully it works out.

The interesting thing for me is the disparity betweeen the failing nfl and the thriving college football game. I dont think it’s he on-field product, because the games and officiating issues are pretty similar. Perhaps part of if it is the anthem protest, but I think the nfl was going downhill before that. Perhaps its the the off field violence (aaron Hernandez, ray rice, etc) that appears to permeate the nfl more than college, making the players seem less enticing to root for. perhaps it’s Tom Brady and a it “doesn’t matter what we do he is going to win anyway” attitude. Or perhaps is the fact that if you are a fan of any major cfb team, you can watch your team for free almost every weekend. I can count on one hand how many bills games I have watched live in the past couple years. There are many reasons for the decline. My solutions: 1) get rid of Thursday games 2) award 2 more Sunday networks games. Put 4 1:00 and 4:00 games on national tv (ie TBS, ESPN, heck even YouTube or amazon at this point). 3) get rid of Sunday ticket all together 4) adopt college overtime rules 5) a two strikes and your out policy for drug use, and a one strike and you are out policy for domestic abuse and gun related infractions. 6) Fix the catch rule. We all know a catch when we see it. Fix it. 7) abandon instant replay for most calls. Go back to coaches challenges twice a half and stop all the booth challenges. It is killing the flow of the game. 8) either get rid of the kickoff, or make it fun again by moving the kickoff line back to the 25 to eliminate touchbacks. 9) gotta do something with the holding calls on OL. It’s too random when it’s called. 10) make pass interference a 15 yard penalty vice a spot call (like college)

John McCargo, Aaron Maybin, Mike Williams, Gilbran Hamdan (Cant believe nobody mentioned him yet!)

As a penn stater, I'd say Christian Campbell is an okay prospect, but I dont think he is a round 3 kinda guy. If we are going to take anyone from Penn State this year (not including Barkley), my favorite is TE Mike Gesicki. S Marcus Allen should also get some looks.

The problem with Tyrod is that he is not bad enough to be thrown away. He isnt very good, but he isnt very bad. In some respects he is the perfect QB for the middling bills. I agree we need to move on, but be careful what you wish for. It might just be worse.

Bengals are imploding on their own...but it seems like a bunch of bad calls keep going against them.

I’ll get excited at game time. Especially if he bills or bengals jump out to a huge lead early. I’m not getting my hopes up. I expected this to be one of the worst seasons of bills football ever. I suspect I was not alone with that thought. We were said to be “tanking”. The fact we are 8-7 with a chance at the playoffs seems like a fluke. We have had far better teams than this over the past 18 years. I think this perspective is tainting any joy I should be getting out of week 17. With that said, if there is a glimmer of hope after the games start, I’m sure I’ll snap out of it...only to be disappointed again. #lifeasabillsfan

titans may be without marriotta as well.

We have 3 playoff games. win them and we are in. Next loss eliminates us (practically speaking). We might be able to squeeze in at 9-7, but would need alot of help.

Well...this one is over. We should put in our backup QB to make sure our starter doesnt get hurt...

I am completely clueless when it comes to home audio stuff, but hopefully someone here can help me. Goal: Be able to extend TV sound from living room to kitchen (and other rooms of house) & be able to play music from iphone on remote speakers in house Current Equipment: Tivo Bolt, Fios, HDTV, iPhone Will an amazon Echo/Dot work? Do I need a receiver? What speakers do you recommend? Like I am said, i am clueless here...I dont care about great sound quality, just something for a multi-room experience. I have an existing NuTone intercom system (that doesnt work). I am not planning on using this for a home system, but wanted to throw it out there in case someone sees a good way to re-use the existing wiring/speakers. Thanks in advance!

Come on now...the icky shuffle was awesome!

This is pathetic. Only thing worse than watching this from the bills perspective would be watching it from the Panthers perspective. They are just letting us hang in there. One lucky break and we can take this pathetic thing...

Time of possession: Panthers: 25:05 Bills: 9:40 Ouch.

I guess based on this...Jacksonville should have been pretty good last year...let me check and see how they did... Yep. This is called confirmation bias.

Another good one. Would have been better if Marcia tried to actually tackle him! https://goo.gl/images/orkZdv

Yup. Sounds about right. Not a single player from north of the mason Dixon line. Let's stop drafting SEC players, and focus on Big 10 and other northern schools. Players who might have experience playing in the cold!

O'Brien for OC!

Didnt just go there...also a big booster. He funded the Pegula Ice Arena ( ), which is the best NCAA Hockey arena ive ever been in (and ive been in over a dozen).

All you need to see is how good Hackenberg and McGloin looked when he was HC, and how poor they have done before/since. I've been very critical of OBrien on these boards for the way he left penn state. I thought he was dishonest and disengenuous. I still think he could have handled his exit much much better, but as time has gone on, I appreciate more and more what he did there to keep penn state relavent, and I'd welcome him in Buffalo...but expect some Marrone type behavior if he does. He is definitely not above playing game with Athletic Directors, GMs and Owners that will rub a lot of people the wrong way.

Not just friends....best man at each other's wedding. Pegula and obrien have a relationship too....could be interesting, and I wouldn't bet against obrien pulling a power play against Whaley if he has the leverage.

This. He hated the college game. He hated dealing with boosters, recruiting, and all the rah-rah stuff a college coach needs to do. He just wanted to coach football. I'd be very surprised to see him go the college route again.

'bout time I get some recognition around here!
