Albany,n.y.

January 2006, that's what it will take

What you talkin' 'bout Willis? The cap hit is exactly the same for Henry whether you trade or cut him. Here are some rules: Cut a player before 6/1 : Entire remaining cap bonus $ accelerated to the season's cap Cut a player after 6/1: That year's portion of the remaining cap bonus $ to the season's cap. Remaining portion to next season's cap. Trade a player -doesn't matter when: Entire remaining cap bonus $ accelerated to the season's cap-same as cut before 6/1. Trade or cut a player in the last year of his contract (Henry is in the last year): Entire remaining cap bonus $ accelerated to the season's cap-same as cut before 6/1, same as trade.

Until you put placekicker on the list, it's worthless.

He can't go back to Georgia, it would violate all NCAA rules.

I remember when Minnesota went to Culpepper in his 2nd season & everyone was shocked that Denny Greene, who saw Culpepper practice the entire year before, made him the starter. He made it all the way to the NFC title game. No indication that JP's ready. How about Eric Moulds saying on WGR that JP kept improving & was lighting things up against our defense in some practices. Insider ha!, WGR's listeners had more inside info on the Bills just listening to Moulds than Lenny P could dig up from his "sources" for the next decade.

Jordan will never sign with the Bills to be a backup. He's willing to re-sign with the Jets as long as he gets starter's pay, otherwise he'll go to a team where he's starting in 2005. Any team looking to add a starting RB should consider Jordan 1st, rather than giving up a pick for Henry.

One of the guys at work has Patriots season tickets & went to the Indy game. At the end of the game the fans were all chanting "Cut That Meat!"

Stevens is a thug that you don't want on your team. I was amazed that Seattle was stupid enough to draft this guy in the 1st round with all hisa off the field stuff. I didn't like him on draft day 3 years ago & want nothing to do with him now. My opinion 3 years ago : My bust board includes the player most likely to be in jail within the next 3 years, Jerramy Stevens. Any team spending a draft choice on him based on his football talents shouldn't expect him to be with the team too long unless they have a large supply of get out of jail free cards. He's nothing but a criminal who has some talent on the football field.

For whatever reason, the Jets have Roethlisberger figured out & can make him look pretty bad. It happened during the regular season & again last night. Sometimes one team just has a matchup advantage against an opposing team or player. It's foolish to say that the Jets results against Pittsburgh means whoever wins in NE today should bury Pittsburgh next week. Unless the NE game winner can get the Jets defense & their staff to play for them next week, one week's performance has nothing to do with the next. I expect to see Roethlisberger holding the Lombardi trophy even with the Cower post season monkey on his back. Although Roethlisberger may not be the reason Pittsburgh wins the Super Bowl, it's easier to deify a 22 year old QB than a 67 year old DC. The Jets scored 3 points on offense yesterday.

Since the Dolphins 3rd is near the top of the round, if nobody is willing to give us a 2, take the Dolphins 3rd & run. Travis will be chasing 13 year old Cuban girls & be Cecil Collins' roomate by mid-season.

No reason to expect anything less than 16-0, we're better than all those teams

Not at all, we're no GOING backwards!

Who could they have drafted? 2 QBs (Carr & Harrington) were picked before we drafted. The other QBs in that draft were Ramsey (1) -picked before we picked in 2nd & still a ?, Josh McCown (3), David Garrard (4), Rohan Davey (4), Randy Fasani (5)-he spent a few weeks on our practice squad, Kurt Kittner (5), Brandon Doman (5)-see Fasani, Craig Nail (5), JT O'Sullivan (6), Seth Burford (7), Jeff Kelly(7), Ronald Curry (7), Wes Pate (7), Lots of pro bowlers in this group.

If JP beats out Drew in camp QB is solved, otherwise we're still playing with a QB who won 6 out of his last 7 games. Draft Nugent & send Lindell out of town, Solidify left tackle by either resigning Jonas or getting someone of equal talent-the OL was better. I didn't see too many times when Mularchy threw 3 yards behind the LOS on 3&1, he mixes things up very well & you can't hang him for 1 play call. They already went 9-7, we're not goiung backwards-Gregg is no longer head coach.

The Jets-Steelers game is more evidence that the Bills must draft Nugent if they want to be a championship team. Making the playoffs & relying on a shaky kicker like Doug (2 missed extra points against us in Minny) Brien -OR RIAN LINDELL - is a disservice to the other 52 players on your roster. Kickers obviously decide games. If we don't pick Nugent in round 2, the Jets will.

You must have finished your second six pack by now to think we'll be no better than 8-8 next year. When you sober up you'll see 12-4 or better.

I'm taping them.

I need Pittsburgh to win the Super Bowl, but only if Indy beats NE. If Indy beats NE & loses to Pitt I win $134 if either Pitt wins SB. Go Indy this week, go Steelers next week. If it's Pit-Phil I lose if Phil wins.

Zero on smoking & drinking. About $5-10 a month on gambling if you count lottery & office pools. If Indy wins on Sunday & Pittsburgh wins the Super Bowl I'll probably win around $130 in an office pool & I won't spend a cent on gambling this year. I used to blow about $1,000-$1,500 a month at OTB/track but gave that up in 1998.

TD has said they'll be addressing the TE situation in the offseason because both TEs had knee surgery & although the prognosis on both is good, they can't afford wait until next July if they don't both recover sufficiently. Euhus could be a great TE down the road but we need a #1 right now if we want to win it for Ralph in Detroit next year.

These 2 were driving me nuts last night. They weren't paying much attention to what was going on on the field, just talking as if they were more interested in hearing themselves instead of commenting on the game. Several times they were talking hypotheticals without realizing something like a flag or a different result than what they thought had happened took place. The only time they said something that made sense was when Madden was bagging on Marty for not trying at least once to score before relying on Kaeding to kick a 40 yarder.

Stephen A. Smith is bagging on Marty, says he never liked him as a head coach (no problem so far), then he loses all credibility by saying that Marty should have kicked on 3rd down because if you miss it you get another shot. Don't these guys know the rules? I was just as dissapointed that Ryan, Saunders & Lupica just sat there & didn't tell him if you miss the kick the other team gets the ball. If MM had that luxury of 4 kicks after a new 1st down, I might actually understand keeping Lindell.

Herm makes a lot of questionable game decisions. He goes for 2 way too early (he's done it before last weeks game), he's been involved in some clock mgt. meltdowns (see Baltimore game) and I hope he coaches another decade in our division, because in the AFC East, he's the weakest link.

If Bledsoe retires at the end of preseason, we get whatever his actual 2005 salary is as cap relief (since he won't get paid). We are charged the one year amortization of his bonus with the rest on the 2006 cap. If we trade him at any time, because the post June 1st split amortization does not apply to trades-regardless of the date, his full remaining bonus $ is our 2005 cap hit.

I do. Tell me when Kaeding played in big games like Nugent did. Nugent played on the college champion. A wild card game would not make him nervous. Did you see Kaeding on the sidelines when dumbass Marty was making no effort to get the field goal closer, he was tight minutes before the kick.
