I have this sick feeling that Clausen will turn out to be a good QB in this league. Then we can all look back and say "WHAT IF?". I always say that every time I look at how well Orakpo is doing in Washington. "WHAT IF we had taken Orakpo instead of Maybin?".

I say we make a trade for Vince Young. Why not? At least he'll run around and make things interesting. The Titans/Jeff Fisher are done with him. Maybe we could make a straight up trade: Maybin for Young.

Simply put Fred Jackson in the wildcat every play. He throws better than Trent, plus he can run when the OLINE lets the defenders through each play.

I have been to a lot of NFL stadiums for games and I can honestly and sadly say that the games I have been to at the Ralph are the most unfriendly I have encountered. For example, I witnessed two fans in their 40's harrassing a 6 year old kid for wearing a Jaguars shirt to a game, etc... There is no way I would bring my child to a Bills game. It's sad when I have to tell people that the most unfriendly atmosphere I have been to is my own team's.

Mike Shanahan simply brought in over-priced veterans into Washington, made his son the OC, and has been involved in a much too publicized exchange with Albert Haynesworth. All that to say, I'm glad we didn't bring him to the B-LO. His veterans won't last the year healthy- see Larry Johnson, nepotism will kill him if the offense doesn't click- never hire someone you can't fire, and the Haynesworth drama has already made Shanahan look like a poor leader. All that being said, I'm glad we hired Gailey.

I'll admit I'm biased against Big Ben. Someone I know is good friends with the girl that was raped by Big Ben. They decided not to go to court due to the extreme publicity that the case would bring. I'm fairly certain that Big Ben did it; however, it never went to trial.

Just heard that Big Ben will probably only miss 4 games this year. HUH? Compare Mike Vick's suspension to Ben R's suspension. When you do the comparison something doesn't add up. Big Ben should have been suspended from the league for at least a year, or maybe more. There is no excuse for rape or killing dogs. Both men should be out of the league. Your thoughts?

I hope you will reconsider. We need your thoughts, suggestions, etc. on this board.

I know it's only a preseason game, but our starters hung in there with the starters from the defending AFC champion Colts. After the game, I realized what I had just witnessed - the beginning of something special. We have a good team this year! Enjoy the ride fellow fans. It's going to be a fun year.

Too bad for Holt. I didn't know Adams had signed. I guess that leaves Snead.

I'd sign Jevan Snead or Flozell Adams. Is Torry Holt still available? Yours??????

We need a QB that can run. Too bad Fred Jackson hurt his hand. I wanted to see him run the WILDCAT formation every play of the game. I still remember the touchdown he threw to Evans last season against Tennessee. We need a running QB that can get the heck out of dodge everytime the OL lets them through.

Looking at your avatar, I hope that Spiller has a chance to shine, for this season and many more to come!

I still have a soft spot in my heart for Tory Woodbury, our practice squad QB from a few years back. That guy had potential and never got the opportunity to shine in the B-LO. Anyone know what he's doing now? I was hoping he'd catch on in the Candadian Football League.

There is plenty of Edwards bashing that goes on daily on this board. However, I go back to Bill Walsh. Walsh drafted some of the greatest players this league has ever known and he endorsed our very own Trent Edwards. In the end, I feel Bill Walsh will be right once again. Go Edwards and Go BILLS!

I keep wondering if this is the last year of Bills football. Our owner could go at any minute, there will be a lockout in 2011, the lease situation regarding our stadium is still hazy, etc... Please convince me that this isn't the last year of Bills football.

I'm going to get blasted for this, but Spiller reminds me of Barry Sanders. Seriously!

I was thrilled that Spielman was inducted into the college hall of fame this past weekend. I am also thankful that he wore our team's uniform during his playing days. He is a class act on and off the field. Before his wife died of cancer, he shaved the hair off of his head because his wife had lost hers. A great husband, a great football player, and a great man. I wish the media would focus more of their attention on athletes like this one, instead of so many others that aren't worth our time. Congrats to Chris Spielman on the college hall of fame!!!! God bless you.

It has been far too long since I've heard any Bills news from NEVERGIVEUP. I need the inside scoop. If you're out there, show us a sign.

I like the cup stacker champion idea. Or the log roll champion.

I was flipping channels a few minutes ago and saw the ESPY's countdown. What a joke!!! The best NBA team goes to the Lakers. The best women's basketball team goes to UCONN. We know the winners already - no need for a show. For years, I have laughed at the fact that ESPN does an awards show. I guess TBS, TNT, or discovery channel need to do award shows. I hope no one on this board watches the ESPY's. The only thing that would make it watchable is if Kobiyashi (from the hot dog eating contest) tried to crash the show. Or, if they did a live interview with OJ from jail. Or, if USC had a session during the show teaching small colleges how to pay its football players.
