I actually won a Fantasy League with Cassel as my QB when he replaced Brady, who I had used my 1st round pick on. LOL!

Well, I look at it this way: After getting benched last season, EJ says when he gets another chance he's just going to air it out EJ works with a well-known QB guru in the off-season Whaley states that new head coach must be willing to give EJ a chance to start Rex Ryan announces a 3 QB competition One week into training camp, the reports from Rex Ryan and others are that EJ is still slow to release the ball and being indecisive so he is not "letting it rip" I hope that EJ develops into a viable starter sometime soon but right now it looks like "he is who he is"

If none of them look good enough, I wonder what the chances are that Orton could be talked out of retirement at the end of training camp?

The garbage cans aren't moving and nobody is covering them.

It was on ESPN on TV. He apparently does 1 QB each day. I didn't catch the last QB he did but saw the list.

At 1st I thought he was too high but the only QB ranked below him I might not agree with is Derek Carr. At this point he also had Winston & Mariota at 31 & 32. I would expect by the end of the season they'll have moved up to the middle of the pack.

That it's currently not working?

I turned on NFL Network and just caught the end of a ticker item that said Kyle Williams had a torn achilles and was out for the season. The magic of the DVR allowed me to rewind where I saw that the team was Denver. Panic attack averted.

Damn, this has been a sad couple of weeks. First Van, then Bob Kauffman, now Curtis Brown. All parts of my youth as a Buffalo sports fan.

Awesome recap, Astro. Almost felt like I was there.

Analytics have their place when used properly. For example, the Bills previous coaching staff should've used analytics to understand that running CJ Spiller up the middle hardly ever worked and usually ended up losing yardage when he tried to kick it outside. But they did not so they continued to run that play multiple times a game throughout the season.

A fond memory of my youth listening to Van broacasting Bills & Braves games. Unfortunately, I only got to hear him for a few years doing Bills games because of the 7-year switch to WKBW and then I moved away. RIP Van!

You have just entered into...The Twilight Zone.

Only Bill I ever met in public was Mike Kadish at Pierce Arrow. I guess I was the jerk then when I said "Look, it's Fred Smerlas!!" since he didn't laugh. He was cool though for the few mins we talked to him.

Yeah, I see they've adopted some of the NFL rules with the over 5-yard illegal contact, coach challenges, etc. but I do like their allowing of motion. There were frequently plays with 3 receivers running towards the line of scrimmage. I've never cared for the NFL rules regarding motion or lack thereof.

Just finished watching the CFL game between Winnipeg & Hamilton from Thursday night, which was broadcast on ESPN2. I had paid enough attention to the CFL to know that Drew Willy was the starting QB for Winnipeg, backed up by Brian Brohm, and Steve Tasker's kid played for Hamilton so I recorded the game. It turns out, young Tasker didn't play due to injury but Willy started and had a good 1st quarter before getting knocked out of the game with a concussion. In came our old friend Brohm, who tossed 2 pick sixes as Hamilton won the game easily.

Thanks! Being a Warriors fan for the last 35 years has been similar to being a Bills fan. Poor management. Poor coaching. Many losing seasons, many of which had the team win enough games that they ended up picking later in the draft lottery and missing out on the better players. Poor head-scratching draft choices. Not able to attract top free agents.

With my Golden State Warriors winning the NBA Championship, I can check that off of my sports wish list. With the UB basketball team making the NCAA Tourney for the 1st time, just a few years after their football team played in their 1st bowl game, all that's left is the Bills winning a Super Bowl and the Sabres winning the Stanley Cup.

Me, too! I don't think I'd want to open it at this point. Who knows what's living in there.

Don't forget, the Pats also have Hoomanawanui, you know like the fish in the Hawaiian song.

Why don't they just go ahead and cut Chris Williams already?

I'm not optomistic. Yahoo has been horrible about fixing things that aren't real time and pretty unsuccessful with some areas that are. For example, go to Yahoo Sports and click on the box score for a baseball game in progress. Note that the score and inning you saw before clicking on the box. When the box opens it is usually for an earlier inning. It eventually refreshes to be current but somtimes is unstable. This has been an issue for a couple years. It's not as bad as it was initially where you could watch it constantly changing from current time to earlier part of the game but still annoying. I guess they can stream a preseason game to evaluate and correct some issues but there's no way to simulate what this London game will really be like. I hope they can figure it out but I'm not looking forward to a pleasant experience. Being on the West coast, I will also have to get up at 6 to watch.
