there is a difference between scoring 20 points in the whole game as opposed to scoring 20 in the first 17 minutes....My God...
Teams don't average their final average on every carry. Hence the reason the Raiders couldn't score on every possession by running for almost 5 yards on every play (they failed to score on 6 of their 11 possessions, not counting the Ford fumble or the last clock-killing drive). And this was against a weak Denver defense who had as bad a rushing defense as the Bills did last year and did NOTHING to upgrade it in that area, and were the worst defense in terms of scoring, again with little to upgrade it.
Your team has no real receiving threats, which means a lot of attention will be paid to McFadden (Bush averaged just 3 YPC so he's no major concern), which means he'll be shut down. Again at least the Chefs have a great WR in Bowe, along with a good one in Breaston, and they were at home. And my point was that the anemic Denver offense scored 20 points against your team.
-
Who, other than John Clayton and some delusional Bills fans, rates Lee Evans or Terrance McGee highly?
Everyone, hence the reason getting rid of both would be "obvious."
-
What makes you think the Raiders won't abandon the run as well? The Broncos put up 20 points on your team.
-
For someone so willing to moisturize the Cryptkeeper's wrinkly behind, you give him too little credit. If he were to dump highly rated and experienced veterans like Evans, and McGee in the same offseason, wouldn't that be a little too obvious?
I am offended! I have nothing for John Clayton.
-
If the Bills truly wanted to save money, they'd have cut McGee outright. They'd have saved $3.2M this year outright, plus $8.2M over the next 2 years. But I suppose next year when he's cut, the "Ralph is cheap" people will surface.
-
Ya think?

Tatooine? Crap, L. Ron Hubbard was right!
-
The Raiders' passing game is anemic, which means the Bills will load-up on the running game and shut it down. Crowd noise will make it even worse for them. At least with the Chefs, they had to worry about Dwayne Bowe.
-
You mean we ain't the Broncos.
-
Probably a good idea to let Parrish walk after the season. He's missed 13 games the past 3 seasons and will be on the wrong side of 30 next year.
-
Rumor has it the Chefs rotated all of their coverage over to Parrish, leaving the other Bills' receivers open to make all the plays.
It's unconfirmed whether Roscoe wore #83 last week.
Beat me to it.
-
I still don't buy that they were really targeting Chandler when they tried to sign Rucker. But who cares?
And he'll certainly garner extra attention. When a guy catches 5 passes for 63 yards and 2 TD's, you take notice, especially when he's 6'7" and 263#.
-
Just a figure of speech. In this case, all a player has to do for some people is put a Bills helmet on and he is GOD, doesn't have to accomplish anything, could have been a hated enemy prior to this, but automatically he is great and it is a crime that the rest of the free world doesn't think so.
Conversely, all a player has to do is leave the Bills and he's GOD. And he was let-go because of money. Even though he at best was the 2nd leading WR on the team, is still being used as a decoy by his new team, and oh yes, his old team won without him.

i'm not sure which party has the highest incidence of genital warts but this issue is really becoming a problem for perry. of course, i agree with mandatory hpv immunization just as i do for other common, serious infectious diseases. seems like a rather obscure reason to vote or not vote for a presidential candidate, however.
Certainly more embarrassing than, say, Solyndra.

Of course financial considerations are factored in player transactions for all teams. But the difference is that with Evans and Hangartner, both players from a salary standpoint, fit under the Bills more stringent cap/cash payroll. The players replacing Evans are less talented. Releasing Hangartner hurt the OL from a depth standpoint. My point regarding these two players is simply that their departures were primarily due to financial and not football considerations.
As I have already stated Evans is in a much better situation for himself because he is now with a better run organization. He is now on a team that will probably be in the playoffs and have serious SB aspirations.
My point is that your point would be wrong. And looking at the Chefs game, the Bills didn't miss Evans. So it was a win-win for both teams, at least in the short-term. Whether Evans is the key to get the Ravens (back) to the SB (they've made the playoffs the past few years without him) and the Bills' passing game can continue to not miss him, remain to be seen.
-
As others have suggested, just put Spiller out at WR. He's the same size as Evans (5'11" 197#), is a good receiver, and has much better speed than Evans (4.27 vs. 4.39). He could be the decoy.
-
Evans is in a walking boot again today, and didn't practice, which may have had a little to do with lack of production on Sunday.
Again, Ralph is cheap, but smart.

That is a horrible picture of her, not that I am condoning her actions by any means, but, she is much better looking in other photos
If not for the reason for her notoriety......yes, in a heartbeat
She was a former beauty pageant contestant: Safe for work

Both players were traded for salary reasons. The organization couldn't trade Evans sooner because there was a lockout, precluding player transactions in general.
Anyone who believes that the player or players replacing Evans on the field is better is way off the mark. Hangartner was making starter money. Even as a backup the versatile player could have been a valuable utility lineman who can play both the center and guard positions. Anyone who has followed the Bills recognizes that a number of player transactions are dictateded by the financial side of the business rather than the football side.
Neither Evans nor Hangman were in the Bills' long-term plans. So they traded Evans and cut Hangman. The money savings was a side benefit but not the major driving force behind moving them.
-
Yes but it was clear on Sunday that he doesn't have the speed to maintain separation once he gets off of the line. CBs can catch up to him. You watch: they're going to burn a high pick on a WR.
You don't need only speed. You need good routes.
-
Apparently everyone scattered, because the police are trying to contact these "heroes." More likely, they don't want to be found, lest as DC Tom alluded to, they're sued for saving him but him being paralyzed (even though the crash probably would have been the culprit).

I'm pretty sure it won't be 83 degrees with 73% humidity in Buffalo that afternoon.

But the whole velociraptor story...that they could disclose, right?
The velociraptor might have a problem with it.

Greer gets injured as much as McGee.
