Outstanding find, thanks!!!!

Couple points. --- You are just noticing this (re: Ice) --- We seen many poor performances from Edwards, yet only one from Brohm, in which he operated behind a makeshift O-line, and had only a third of the playbook available to him? Sorry, but that single game we saw Brohm play in (against Atlanta) isn't anywhere enough to make a legitimate evaluation of him.

Folks, you all might wish to visit ESPN.COM and/or Twitter as Adam Schefter has stated that Crowder is not out for the season....

If you're going to rebut a poster opinion of the biggest Bills bust, then give something to back that up. How about Al Cowlings, Perry Tuttle, Erik Flowers, Phil Dokes, etc., all were far worse......

Wow, I can't believe how many have chimed in with "he's not that bad", with respect to his accuracy. I give you all that he can make a nice throw here and here, but sandwiched in between the good throws are some really poor ones (sometimes wide, often short and in the ground, etc). The poor throws outnumbered the good ones. ....and he does force passes and no excuses for poor protection, etc. For far too long we've made excuses for our QB's. Perform to the caliber required, or find a new job. Fitz is a semi-capable backup at best.

Let's not get carried away here. Fitz does bring a some desired intangibles to the table, but he also made quite a few poor decisions on his throws last year. I recall him getting lucky and not being picked off more than I cared for. Also, when a QB makes one good throw, followed by two poor ones, he's shown he cannot be the guy. Consistency is very important and Fitz is anything but.

Revis should be told, "your under contract and we expect you here. If you decide not to show, you will be fined." I haven't any issue with players negotiating new contracts or extensions when they have only a year left on their contracts, but if they have two or more years, the owners MUST have to fortitude to not pacify and over pay these overgrown children, such as Revis.

That was the norm in 1973 (Fergie's rookie year). I believe he only averaged around 14 passes a game. It was OJ right, OJ left, Braxton up the middle, OJ out of the I, pitch to the right............

While Jauron was a bad HC, yet we did have worse. Some that come to mind were Harvey Johnson, Hank Bullough, and I'm sure a few others may add one or more to this.

I vote for the best possible candidate, whether that is Brohm or Edwards. Part of me would like to see what Brohm can do given the full offense package, which he did not get against Atlanta last year. I did not mention Fitz because his scatter shot accuracy drove me nuts last year. One good throw, two poor throws, one mediocre one, etc. I liiked his intangibles, but his arm, not at all. In watching Brohm in the preseason when he was with GB, and in our game against Atlanta last year, I do worry he may be an interception machine. While he appears to have touch, his out route throws do seem to lack the strength desired also. May the best QB win......AND be successful. We deserve it after all these years since JK.

Character can be divided into segments, such as personal and profession (in this case football). Levy himself spoke of character but he did add he was speaking more of professional/football character than personal. In some cases, some of these scumbags (Rothlisberger, etc) actually put forth tremendous effort in their profession only to be complete turds personally (off the field). Their profession is what gives them their direction. Most of these guys have been stars (high school, college) and have been fairly well pampered and unfortunately, for the sake of their talent, a blind eye was given to their digressions. This is the one area of Goodell's reign that I like, and that's that there's finally a standard of conduct being applied to these guys. In some ways, Goodell could be much tougher, but it's start.

While Butler may have some supporters here, he too was a problem. Just look at the Bills team Polian had assembled, and Butler only oversaw it's demise. He never came close to reloading the Bills to continue to be a quality team. Once Bruce, Andre, and Thurman moved on, we've basically been a train wreck since.

Maybe I was lucky, but I have had four mortgages with Wells Fargo. Two were for new home purchases, and two re-fi's. Not a single one took more than a month to close on.

A matter of pessimism? I thought it's a pragmatic evaluation of the state of the Bills and not having a playoff team since the 1999 season ended.

Led Zeppelin - Physical Grafftti Alice In Chains - Dirt Metallica - Black Beatles - Abbey Road Gerry Rafferty - Baker Street I guess I'm somewhat stuck in a time warp...... Yet, this is impossible, I'd be changing them all the Time.

Turns lemons into lemonade? Just makes plays? I guess I've missed them. 12 catches over two years, with only two of them last year. How many "plays" could he have made?

Actually, the Bills began their slide during Levy's last few years. Our once dominate offensive line was rendered impotent with the likes of Fina (adequate), Crofts (horrible), Ziegler (poor), Ostroski (barely adequate Guard, poor tackle), etc....... Our stars were aging (Kelly, Smith, Thomas, Reed) and frankly, the cupboard ran bare trying to find others able to step in and play. I used to curse Levy for not giving the O-Line the attention it needed. This characteristic unfortunately cared over into the next regimes and to this very day. Last years pick of Wood and Levitre was actually a good step in the right direction though.

There will always be the exception. Good to hear old Jack is still sharp, although I haven't followed the NBA in a long long time now. Say, is John Hummer still playing? (Good that bum was pitiful ...)

Ronnie Jones? He also hired some bum from UB (Bowman) to coach the TE's who was (I'm told) a neighbor of his at the time. Wade wasn't thinking to brightly, and that surely didn;t surprise me. He was a good DC who never should have been a HC. The Cowboys can have old humpty dumpty....Jones runs the show anyway.

Sure did, you missed Gailey's/Nix's comments when he was drafted. He's someone to develop.

Stuck, what the hell are you talking about, or better, "what you talking bout Willis?" I grew up in Kenmore, and while I also lived in Cheektowaga, Depew, Tonawanda, etc., Kenmore was my town/village of residence during most of my 30 years in Buffalo. Enlighten me..... Their DWI (DUI for non-Buffalonians) record may be impressive but no more so than most places. Heck, one of the biggest drunks in Kenmore back in the mid-80's was a Kenmore Cop. His name was "Kir..." never mind. If you know Kenmore, you know who I just started to mention. Care to look at Ohio with the same skeptical eye? I also lived in Dayton, OH, where DUI road blocks were darned near a weekly thing.

Gary Anderson.......drafted by the Bills and cut before the season began....

I have a son sho had leukemnia a the age of two. He is now 11 years old and I do hug him many tines a day. He is doing well.

That's exactly what I saw far too often last year from Mr. TO "Superstar".....

Nice guy, but the team was on a downward trend under him. I can't forget him telling the team we're out of it before that 2000 Indianapolis game when both Indy and Buffalo were still alive (we were both at 7-6). Of course, Indy beat us handily and they made the playoffs. Wade may have been better than what we've had the past decade, but that still doesn't say much for him.
