Bills won't play EJ this year - it will destroy their plan to resign him and sell him as the hope for 2017. Romo or anyone decent will never sign here, so the Bills will be dancing without a partner. EJ and Cardale will be sold as the latest hope. Brandon is genius at this stuff.

All the Twin Fair stores have closed. You might have to look online.

Marv Levy says hello

My fiancé cannot handle it when she talks to me and I, being already deeply engaged in important matters - like reading OTW - patronize her with "uh-huh" and "um-humm". She flips out. I don't get it. That's what guys do, amirite?

I learn a lot here. Like new words. My current new favorite word is "bloviating". It sounds just like what it means - blowing smoke like a V-8. Post words you first found out about here on TSW.

In 1968, the New York Jets were the only team to lose to a really, really, REALLY crappy Bills team, giving the Bills their only win of the season. Then the Jets went on to win the Super Bowl - so there's that.

This is beautiful! Love it.

Wonder if any player has had to choose between playing in the Super Bowl and attending their child's birth.

Puleeze - not another Mike Williams! The last two haven't worked out so well. Same for first round Clemson guys, save for Sammy. Perry Tuttle, I'm looking at you!

I was thinking the same exact thing......about next week's game.

It's easy to second guess now, but when the play unfolded, I was (unhappily) shocked they were throwing. The odds favor keeping the clock moving at that point, and Tyrod wasn't inspiring any confidence throughout the game (or his career really) that he could make a clutch play there. But it was a well designed play for that situation if they were going to pass, so even though they didn't make it, it was a sensible play design. I was also shocked when Rex had Carp kick that long FG. Couldn't believe he had confidence in him and he nailed it. Good for him. I am glad to see more aggressive calls and if they continue (or start) to have success, confidence will snowball through the rest of this year's schedule. They are going to have to play to win the next 6 weeks.

Spoken like a long-time listener, first time caller

To the OP, if the Bills make it to 10-6, i will likely consider that a very positive step in the right direction, and a good indication of resiliency in overcoming injury adversity. To make it to 10-6 means either the defense really stepped up, or Tyrod, or both. So, playoffs or not, I'll be encouraged.

I don't feel like we have beaten a team that has played decently. Seems like our wins are all against teams that played like crap. Whenever we come up against a team playing decently, we cannot match them, and one or more elements of the team fails epically. Seattle might be only game where we slugged it out evenly, yet still lost. Until that changes, the chances of making the playoffs come down to playing 6 teams that are off their game - in other words, slim and none. Bills gotta start beating teams that are playing at their best.

Throwing to a spot? It was a 4 yard pass and Harvin was right in his line of sight! And no offense averages 10 years a play, yet the Bills give up 3rd and 10+ yards waaaay too often.

I think the impression of Patulski being a huge bust comes from his status as a consensus great college player and No 1 overall pick in only the seventh combined draft (starting with AFL-NFL in 1966). He had a decent career, but not one worthy of a No 1 overall pick. I thought comparing him to others in his draft class, etc was kind of meaningless. His performance and career stands in its own and the performance of others in his draft class isn't relevant. I thought the stats about sacks and fewer pass attempts was helpful in framing Patulski's performance as measured by sacks. I thought the biggest takeaway was his persona and game day demeanor as opposed to Saban's preferences. Saban sounds like he was a pretty difficult guy to play for if you weren't of his mindset. Saban had some great ends during his earlier Bills stint (Day, McDole) and he probably expected even more out of Patulski given those other guys weren't high draft picks. McDole was 4th round and Day was 20th round. Also interesting how that aborted punt block still stings. Just a very revealing look at a guy who has always been a bit of a mystery.

Nice bit of Bills history about a guy considered by many as one of the league's biggest draft busts. Tim Graham sheds some light on the career of the "bust" from Walt's perspective. I gained an appreciation of a man I remember playing during a fun time to be a Bills fan. http://buffalonews.com/2016/11/19/busting-40-years-nfl-darkness-walt-patulski-explains-went-wrong/

Johnny Cash's version of "Hurt" "I will let you down I will make you hurt"

What the hell??? When did we go from bashing our best player to talking movies? If I want to talk about random stuff unrelated to football, I'll listen to Schopp and Bulldogge.

U 96 Undrey Wash ???? Sounds like a category title on Pornhub. Or so I'm told..... ....or perhaps a technique used in massage parlors.

hangnail could shut him down for the year at this point

Isn't that more or less an average game for Green?

Once Trump builds the wall on January 20, 2017, will NFL teams be able to get over it to play future games in Mexico? We might need a crane to get Dareus over it, with his bad groin and all.

Put me down for turf toe in this weeks Dareus injury pool

I've seen enough.....BUST!
