  1. The issue is that the quality of the streaming experience varies too wildly from one location to another and from isp to isp. This is not ready for prime time......
  2. They hit Manuel in the haes. You are right. That was a valid call
  3. The swing passes, etc., looked very well thrown. Sad though isn't it that we've had QBs recently that couldn't handle these throws at all. Fitz, Manuel, even Orton looked pitiful on them.
  4. Jon Stewart is a well known for his political satirie and general humor.....don't even pretend this most obvious of facts escapes you. E
  5. Isn't Browner a league leader in penalties?
  6. It's a business and having such a short shelf life, players feel compelled to maximize the contracts. Also the vermin who call themselves agents are also into maximizing their take even more than their clients are. What is lost here how good a fit a player is within the defensive scheme utilized. Others mentioned this as well but maybe the Bills change back to a base 3-4 isn't Hughes strong suit (Colts used the 3-4 and he did zip there). I see Hughes getting a big contract but only collecting a couple years of it. I too do not see Hughes as "the man" but only a complimentary piece.....
  7. A 12 mil cap hit? Way too much for a RB. This guy better light it up for the next 3 years or so. This will cost us at least two good players that we could have had, either resigned or picked up. The price is just too high.
  8. Surely old bug eyes Sapp wont be missed and to make it a perfect off season for fhe NFL Network, get rid of the babbling idiot Michael Irvin.
  9. You bring up gun control without acknowledging that more Americans favor stronger controls than not.
  10. For whatever reason, Ruben Brown will never get a fair shake around here. His peers thought very highly of him, but hey..... what the heck do they know?
  11. I'm in the here we go again camp. a coach who refuses to use rhe players and their strengths. A 4-3 is well suited for our front four. I am so suck of egomaniacs sticking square pegs into round holes. The D takes a step back and bye bye to Jerry Hughes....
  12. Orton looked at the numbers and found that retiring with 10 years rather than 9 was a much better proposition under the NFL retirement system.
  13. Scopes isnt just a poster at another board. Control of the Buffalo Range has been transferred to him from Billsman. He's already made some major improvements to the board, especially in speed. He has however dropped sipport for tapatalk which is a big mistake in my book....
  14. I agree to an extent. Unless you have watched Gary Marangi, you haven't seen the worst. As for Mallet, he was consistently throwing behind his receivers. Unable to lead his receivers at all. It was not a pretty sight...... I forgot to add it was very much like Manuel's throws.
  15. I will only add that Orton the past two weeks, and especially against KC has looked less than pedestrian. KC loss should be credited to him and last nights loss to Miami and Orton's play made me sick.
  16. The phrase that caught my attention was, "...usual criminal coercive cut". From those who pull the "how are you going to pay for it" objection everytime a program to help the poor is propsed for example, seem to think their military is free or should only be paid for by working class folks. Never mind that a business could lead to a need for more fire and police services, or roads to support their businesses. Nah, they shouldn't contribute at least that's what the far right thinks. Tax breaks are fine when thoughtfully implemented. Yet to generallly call taxes the " usual criminal coercive cut" is sadly misguided at best.......
  17. So, Behgazi was a tragedy of poor leadership, then what about the 9-11 attack on our own soil? You make the call.
  18. On board 100% with keeping Lee Smith off the field, but why stop there. How about off the team and out of Buffalo? As for Hogan, I disagree as strongly. He's the type of player every team needs. Selfless, hardworking, willing and able to do some dirty work on ST, pretty good hands, good routes.......and he has decent size. He's the kind of player who only gets better the more he's used. Woods is being mis-used terribly by Hacket and Marone. Watkins and then Woods are our best receivers. Give Woods a route instead of two yard slants and dumps that may get him killed. One back and run him to death? What about his conditioning. For crying out loud, what did Dixon have but 12-13 carries? Sorry but Dixon claims he wants to be the guy, well being dead on your feet after 10 carries isn't going to get the job done. I like Dixon, but......
  19. Not sure I will go that far. My point was only that Williams does have ability too. I also recall an 80 yarder for a score in a game that cost Manuel his job, a job I don't believe he will get back barring injury (with our O-line that's a distinct possibility though).
  20. Ok, I'm as happy as anyone with the great catch Hogan made yesterday to set up the winning TD, but to say without any doubt that Mike Williams would not have is an opinion only. I seem to remember Williams making a pretty spectacular catch against the Bears to contribute to that win.
  21. To those who sing the praises of Icognito, it should be noted that he played against the Bills with Miami and Tannehill took a pounding. Icognito is more effective run blocking than pass blocking. In reality, he sucks as a pass blocker. Pass on Icognito as his apparent fame around here dwarfs his actual ability...
  22. Praying that all will be well for ya Ron
  23. He deserves a ton of love today. He played great!!!
  24. As stated, Pears has been horrible at Guard. Marine claims he can't use Urbik at RG because he's the backup center. Crap....find another center dippy.
  25. Manuel needs to step back and recoup. He has been horrible. He has missed receivers badly that were wide open, not to mention throws at the WR's knees, behind the WR's, or so far over the WR's head that the WR's had no chance. Goodwin darned near got killed because of Manuel. Yet as bad as this is, what the neck was Hackett and Marone thinking? If Marone had any balls at all, he would have left Hackett in Houston. Hackett has to be the worst OC in the NFL today.
