He and Tally are into it pretty good!
@DarrellTalley: ". @DonteWhitner funny thing. If I saw u I wouldn't know u to fall over u. 25 years later people still recognize me."
And, um, wow:
@DarrellTalley: "@DonteWhitner I'll have a grip around ur mother f** throat. U have no idea how far my reach will reach. B**." (and that wasn't censored).
Now they're going to box - Amazing

If we're hoping, wouldn't it just be easier to hope that a light goes off and Manuel looks like a future HoFer? Hoping for the worst season in franchise history in hope that some "fix" is on the way is beyond idiotic.
For real - not sure why some have to hope for the worst vs hoping for the best.
I get it, the OP doesn't think that the current situation will work out, ok, but is that really a reason to HOPE FOR THE WORST? Hope for the best, but know that whatever is going to happen is going to happen, and you'll stay much less stressed and be much happier.
I mean, the season's coming you might as well get on board and at least try to enjoy it regardless of how it all plays out...

Dear everyone, put down the crazy pills and step away from the keyboard...

Kiko's game and value are all about quickness and speed. The Kiko who will return next year won't be the Kiko of 2013. Think of the very dfferent Merriman that emerged from surgery. I wish him the best but I think he's done, at least as the Kiko we know.
Yes, because Merriman and Kiko's injuries were close to the same O_o
Is everyone here on crazy pills?
-
Did Kiko heal himself yet? Please?
-
What a bummer - I can't believe that Kiko gets hurt, before the season, working out. Stunned.
He's definitely one of my favorite young Bills! Get well soon Kiko...

They should go with the really long ago throwbacks, the blue and silver of the original 1960 Bills...
Great link - I love the current look, the white helmet makes the whole uni feel clean and classic. The Red's, while fun in the 90's, stick out in the overall look too much IMO. I do like the silver's though Jack!
Look at those 2002 - 2010s, no wonder we sucked for so long. O_o

What if someone buys the team and keeps it in Buffalo, but a meteor hits the stadium because god hates the Bills? How do you react as a Bills fan?
My reaction - move Sammy Watkins to QB.

Sounds like even a dumbed down offense was a struggle for EJ. Hope a full offseason gets him better mentally prepared this year. Sounds like from OTAs they are giving him the full playbook.
Yes, yes it is. I thought it was obvious, but maybe not.
That's not really what I got from the interview - he never implied that EJ struggled, or wasn't mentally prepared. Keep in mind this was just me recapping, it's not word for word.
He never said that EJ didn't know the playbook, reads or hit the right guys, just those are the things he needs to do to be a franchise guy. "Further knowing the playbook", was about going deeper into it this year - EJs been studying and is ready to really get into the full playbook with all options, calls, etc. He even said that EJ has done a good job of learning the playbook this year.
The "better at knowing the game" quote (not sure that was Freddy's exact words), was more about EJ having more experience and knowing what to expect in games now that its year two.
The last one was what everyone has talked about, even EJ, learning to get out of bounds. Had nothing to do with the playbook.
Regardless, you can't help but get fired up listening to Freddy. Buffalo Bill at heart - he'd win every game alone, if he could...
-
Loose transcript of his interview - good stuff, you GOTTA love Freddy!
How is the O shaping up:
- We added dynamic weapons - brought in a couple good RBs, Sammy (who lit it up in college), Woods, Goodwin. We have speed. Want to put up a lot of points this year.
Where does EJ have to get better, what did you learn about him last year:
- Last year we learned that EJ is the guy, great teammate, works hard. He's athletic, has the tools, just needs to know the playbook and reads and hit the right guys. He's been working on further learning the playbook in the offseason. Just needs to continue to work in TC to put it all together.
What is EJ like on a day to day basis:
- What you expect from a QB. First guy in, last guy out. Works with coaches, breaks down film, takes it home to study. Tremendous teammate. Doesn't want to the reason that the team doesn't get to where they want to be. He has the tools and traits, just needs to get better at knowing the game - he has the drive to do so.
You've been there 8 years trying to find a QB. But last year was crazy with all the QBs. How challenging was that for the O?
- Was tough to get the consistency that you need at the QB spot. But in the RB room, we want to take the pressure off those guys. Want to be the best RBs in the game and have the best attached in the league. It was tough without that one franchise guy all year. Hopes EJ learned and stays healthy.
RB by committee, you're great at that. How did you embrace it?
- Blessed to have great teammates (Willis, Marshawn, CJ), guys are not selfish and just want to win gams. when that's your goal you'll do whatever it takes. With RB by committee you stay fresh, don't get beat up, it extends careers. As long as guys want to believe that they want to win games at any cost, then you do whatever it takes.
You're an old RB, hows the body for 8th season at 33:
- Excellent. no complaints. Took some shots last year that beat me up, but feel best I have in a long time. The Bills have to do big things this year and looking forward to being a part of that. Wants to be a big part of the reason we turn this thing around and get us into the playoffs.
Marshawn Lynch, take us back on the early days of his career:
- We would have contest within the game - who can break the most tackles, or get the most stiff arms. We competed. he was willing to put the team on his back. After that he became Beast Mode - that punishing type RB. His mentality was they're going to hit me, so I'm going to hit them so they feel as bad as I do the next day. Freddy always watches Marshawn's game, he's like a brother.
How does the fraternity of runners take the criticism that running backs don't matter as much in this "QB driven league?
- You have to have a guy you can hand the ball to 25 times in our weather. Sometime passing game doesn't work and you need the RB to lean on. Notion that RB isn't important is nonsense, and we take it as a slap in the face, but we'll keep doing our thing.
New ownership for the Bills and long term viability in Buffalo:
- You try no to get too involved, but you pay attention. I've been here for so long you hope and pray nothing happens to this team. It would be bad for the area and fans. Me, Jim, Thurman, guys that have been here for a while, we want the team in buffalo. When I retire I want to walk back it the stadium and say this is where i played. It means a ton to the community, fans and the players. We have to do our part and win some championships!
Do you think about life after football yet?
- I'm all about football, I feel like i Have 3 - 4 more years in me. Just need to keep going out and showing and proving. That's my job. Play with the best and keep doing it at a high level. Lets hope I do and get an extension with Buffalo.

I wish Hitner was our QB! %SWAG! %in

So this is the annual preseason thread saying how great we will be and who we will beat. The Buffalo Bills continue to be the best off-season team in history.
Did you read the thread, or just post randomly? o_O
Lots of talk in Sirius this afternoon about the Vick / Geno competition with Rich Gannon and Bruce Murray. Gannon feels the Jets should start Vick, then bring in Geno if he struggles; feels it'll be tough (and will be bad for Geno) if he gets the start and is pulled in a few games for Vick.
They also talked about the pre-season and how fans are going to see Vick playing against 2s and 3s, but Geno against 1s - which could lead to fans screaming about how much better Vick is than Geno (despite the competition) and could make for a less than ideal situation for Geno...
Definitely going to be fun to watch this one play out!

Was it confirmed that it was Dareus and DMX on those bikes? Or have I said too much?

A promotional products company is sponsoring the field house?
What Adpro Sports needs to do is work on their logo - who decided on that "A"? Also, the kerning on Adpro vs Sports makes the entire thing feel off...
Whatever, guess we'll take the sponsorship bucks where we can get 'em.

6 years until a Super Bowl?? Terry is cheap.
Obviously.
I just liked the 2020 symbolism, maybe it'll be like the movie 2012...
-
Ha ha, I am just waiting for the "What if an asteroid hits" thread from Tasker's Ghost.
That'll only happen when we're about to win the Super Bowl.
Probably the 2020 Super Bowl played on the brand new Ralph Wilson Field at Gieco Stadium in Downtown Buffalo.

Imagine logging into your bank account and seeing a 1.75 billion dollar balance. Seems like that would be fun - a whole different level of possibilities.
And just like everyone else I would LOVE to see this go down! Stayin.

This place is gonna be real interesting week 4 after the Amish Rifle does the ole Fitz Magic to us (not sure if "doing the ole Fitz Magic" is good or bad)
A late pick to ice the game for the Bills? Yeah, we'll take it...
-
Maybe they can work on the smoking law next... Maybe deem certain places "outside" of the structure, therefore making it possible for people to smoke there
Whats the point - I think the tore down Hooter Hill for the new store / entrance
I definitely remember forgetting beer a few times and trying to by it at the 7E near Sullys lot only to be turned away with sober, teary eyes...

Loved the Uncle Jim line! Can't wait to see what this kid brings to the Bills and Buffalo.
-
Thanks for playing.
Edit: I was chastised for my tone, so I'll answer seriously. How can you come up with that sort of opinion when you admit you don't even watch the games? I tire of this stuff.
Your snark was well deserved in this case, IMO, especially when we've seen this question posed a million times in other threads.
FWIW, many of the former NFL players and FO types on Sirius have had nothing by praise for both Hackett and Marrone saying things like "they're the guys", etc.
I'll take the opinion of the experts (and, even more importantly will see what the guy can do with healthy players, a full off-season, etc) before passing judgment...
-
You sir are correct. Wanny had blitzes installed as well
I think I remember both times during the season that he used them!
-
I am starting to get a little giddy about the prospects of Sammy Watkins. I know that I was all about him coming in so that clouds my judgement for sure but he just seems different. He does not feel like a nice piece being added; he feels like he will be one of THE pieces. His game is just so polished and his natural ability is up there with just about any skill player that will enter the league. I am really excited.
Don't worry, TakersGhost will be here soon enough to tell you the 15 reasons you're enthusiasm is misguided...
Let's Go Sammy! Let's Go Buffalo!
Whitner calls out Sammy, Bills fans,Tim Graham,Talley...
