Just your claim that they still have video. No video is safe in NFL hands.

Does a long history of injury necessarily predict future injury? I seem to recall a great many people here doubting Eric Wood the same way, and he's now gone two straight full seasons, and has only missed two games in the last three years. The one exception I would say is for concussions, but I don't think that's Bradford's problem.

"LG: Step with the inside foot, and drive the second knee through the crotch." Whoa.

Mythbusters. Put it on there, special edition. Case closed.

Now there's a shocker.

From the interview, this is what Whaley had to say: It's not like Whaley has no idea or intention to address the issue. Just relax and let it play out.

A team wouldn't be held responsible if all balls on both sides were equally affected by the weather. Nor would a team be held responsible if a single ball developed a slow leak. Neither of which applies to this situation.

Linky When I asked, it said: "It is decidedly so."

Ian Rapoport @RapSheet Based on my knowledge of how investigations often go, it makes sense Tom Brady hasn’t been spoken to yet. He would be last.

Even George RR Martin, of Game of Thrones fame, is chiming in:

I'm having trouble remembering which thread this is.

Chris Mortensen @mortreport NFL has found that 11 of the Patriots footballs used in Sunday’s AFC title game were under-inflated by 2 lbs each, per league sources.

Jeez, I dunno...Jerry Hughes cost us $4 million last year, and I'd say he played above his pay grade. Why not count that?

Even with Rex, the Bills are still considered irrelevant on the national TV stage. They won't have a non-playoff team open the season.

I am just grateful it wasn't Green Bay vs. the Pats**, which is my nightmare for reasons previously stated. At this point, I can freely root against the Pats** without worry. I don't mind Seattle as much as other people seem to. I'm hoping for a beat down.

Ah, I see. I was thinking of "weighing" in the usual manner.

Weighed it? What could they have done to it?

So much handwringing over a QB coach and an OL coach. Unreal.

If nothing else, that's one hell of a nice pamphlet.

It was time several years ago, actually. Right about the time he was introduced.

Rand Getlin @Rand_Getlin #Bills QB EJ Manuel has hired agent Eugene Parker of @RelativitySport for representation. Yay!

This. CJ has been in the league for several years, and has never even slightly improved at pass blocking. While it's not the #1 responsibility of a RB in the league, it's still an important one, and CJ is just not very good at all at blocking. One of the worst plays of this past season, don't remember who it was against but it was later in the season: CJ blew a block on a pass-rushing defender, who came free at Orton but managed to miss him and fall to the ground. Orton danced around long enough for the defender to get back up and sack him from behind. After missing his block on the defender, CJ merely stood around and watched the defender get back up and make the play. Didn't even make a half-hearted attempt to stop him. I lost any remaining desire to keep CJ on the team at that point. He can be a home run hitter, but he has no interest or ability to become even average at his other responsibilities.

I've always thought this as well.

I've never been able to hook up with a Bills Backers group here, not sure where they've been. I heard of one near Park City, but that's not exactly convenient. Is there one in the Salt Lake area these days?

As I've mentioned in the past, my worst possible Super Bowl is Green Bay-New England*. I can't believe how close both of those teams were to losing last week. It makes me sick. If somehow we get an Indy-Seattle game, I'd be ecstatic. Please make it happen.
