Tough loss i was really begining to think he was such a nice guy
-
people on the board last year complained about how he couldn't handle adverse weather. Do people fel differently now?
Well i was one of those people who said that and this year i am much more confident in Trent and feel as long as he is on the field we have a chnce to win. That being siad the cold weather thing is still a concern for me but not as much. I hope he can be effective in the cold and not seeing it last year and beginining to realize he was gonna be our quarterback of the future.... in Buffalo, worried me. It the same thing with getting respect from people on ESPN until he proves otherwise its gonna worry me. But i do feel pretty confident it wont be a concern

Dogfighting is acceptable when mindless mutts like Skooby are involved.
I hope is picked up by Cleveland - the Dog Pound would be so appropriate.

OC, your arguement is not focused correctly. If you want to argue that the player Whitener is NOW, was worth the 8th overall pick, I dont think there is a bills fan here that will argue with you. However, you need to take into account the draft, Whitners percieved value in the draft, and the percieved value of the other players. For whatever reason, Whitner was seen as a late 1st, top of the 2nd round safety. Ngata was seen as a top 15 player. In the end, the bills got Whitner and a DT, McCargo (bust).
I LOVE Whitner, but I am also a firm believer that we could have taken Ngata at 8, then traded up and taken Whitner in the same manner we did for McCargo. Hell he could have still been on the board at 26. That is the reason some fans will never feel that the Bills took the correct player. No fan thinks Whitner was not worth the 8th pick, just as no fan would take Whitner McCargo over Ngata Whitner...

We're in great shape but we aren't even at mid season. Lot's can go wrong ... some things we can control, some we can't.
Here are my concerns roughly in order:
1. Trent Edwards goes down to injury: Anyone that saw one-dimensional Losman against Cards vs game manager Edwards against Bolts, knows what I mean. If this happens we're toast;
2. Continued injuries in the secondary: We have little depth there and it will become a major weakness. Our #1 pick may not be ready for prime time this year;
3. Complacency: We're not that much better than anyone else in the league. We got whipped by Cards and all our victories but one have been close;
4. Loss to Jets 2 weeks from now: Forget about Favre, the real story there is an improving Jets defense;
5. Pats aren't as bad as everyone here thinks: I agree last night was mostly about a terrible Broncos team, but still ....
6. Distracted by Toronto talk: now that we're good, I hope the game against Miami in Toronto doesn't distract the players about team's status;
7. Jim Hardy isn't a factor this year: without Hardy our WR team is essentially what it was last year: a bunch of smurfs. We need Hardy to get us over the hump and win some games with size advantage to thwart opposing defenses good game plans (e.g. winning TD catch against Jags.)
8. The Ralph: that place is falling apart and will put more pressure on moving the team as building a new stadium is unaffordable;
9. More Injuries to linebackers: see #2 above;
10. Tennessee's Schedule: it's one of the weakest in the league and if face them in the playoffs I'd much rather have it be here than the site of "Music City Miracle."
The Ralph is in pretty good shape IMO and the toronto talk is a bunch of BS IMO this team is to focused on the ultimate goal and DJ is good at keeping them focused

.... no longer be a fan of this team. Not for a long time anyway. And yes that means I will no longer post on this board (not for a long time anyway.) I hate Pennington and Dolphins aren't even a quality team this year. And if Bills embarress me with a blowout loss to them next week(like two weeks's ago's debacle against can't beat the Ariz Cards), I am no longer a fan of this team. They would not represent me. I'm sorry, but that's how I feel and that's the deal.
From the pats* board?

If it needs to be changed then go for it but make sure you tell us how to get to it. My life would be very boring without this site some days

Want to see more points..... San Diego's defense is not good. We did a good job of ball control and this was the first game in a while where San Diego turned over the ball, so kudos to the defense.
Listening to Schopp and the Bulldog go on about TE is just way over the top. I too am very excited about him, but can I ask for 300 yards passing and 30 offensive points?
Before you jump on me, check Miami's and Chad Pennington's #'s vs. SD two weeks ago..... 22/29 228 yards and 167 years rushing and almost 37 minutes TOP.
I am thrilled about the team, but not ready to have them deep in the playoffs yet, though I certainly think we can play against and beat Tennessee (easily as their offense is just not good) and Pittsburgh (if we can contain Rothliesburg).....
SD defense is not a bad D. We dominated them for 60 mins. Yards dont matter as much as the score at the end. As long as the Bills come out on top we could have 30 yards of total offense and i wouldnt give two *****

I cant stand the Cowboys. The media focuses so much on the cowboys and most of what they focus on is not about playing football. Its jerry jones, TO overdose, TO crying, Romo dating jessica simpson, pac man being a criminal, etc. I wouldnt mind so much if they talked more about the play and less about the drama.
Thats what i think. ESPN is almost unwatchable sometimes because they focus on the drama. I like to know the players off the field but id rather have a feel good story or something funny like the Mayne event then o what did Romo and Jessica have for dinner. If you care about that go read people

Im sold

The IR thing was changed because teams would stash young players on IR instead of releasing them.
Hmm good point i didnt think about that

With the increased number of serious player injuries (because players are faster and bigger than ever), is it time for the league to review the rules about roster limits? I realize there are financial constraints to increasing roster limits, but what if the concept was packaged with the issue of the ridiculous contracts being given to rookies at the top of the draft? The union might find it more acceptable if much of the overpayment of rookies went into the pockets of backup players providing greater depth on teams. Even a modest increase of two or three additional roster spots would allow teams to have more guys who have been "working within their system" all year to cover for those injuries keeping guys out for a number of weeks. The benefits include allowing teams to keep aging veterans (who can still be good players) longer.
Welcome to the board!
This is a good idea. What i would love to see is a 4 week IR roster exemption. This would have been useful with Crowell and several players last year
-
In the unlikely scenario that happens the Bills would still have the lead regardless of whether they converted a 2 pt conversion or not.
Ya but why risk it?
-
Not to get greedy, but losses from the Jets and Pats* sure would be nice.
Pats might be done by the 2nd quarter tomorrow night as for the Brets a loss to oakland would be fun to watch
-
leon washington just fumbled a punt return oakland ball inside the Brets 20
-
Honestly, I would of kicked another field goal to run up the score, but that's just me. Class is too PC.
Kick is blocked and we get !@#$ed... no thanks
-
McKelvin is getting schooled. Our Offense had better figure out a way to start running the ball, or we will lose this game by virtue of having no secondary.
I thought that last one was decent coverge, good throw IMO
-
I don't understand. Have they ever heard of generators? They have to be able to come up with something.
Your gonna need a huge generator

I've watched every F-in play of every F-in 3-13 season and this happens now!!!!! Somebody should be held accountable for this. This is outrageous.
Its an accident at a bad time thats all
-
F This this is total BS /I,ll bet if this was a political debate it would be restored in seconds. Heads should roll ant the power company
I think it keeps getting over loaded because of all the power needed at the stadium they can fix this that quickly hopefully over halftime they can get this sorted out.
Delay halftime and let them figure it out this is the game of the week we need the highlights later!

Props to the fans who did the shout song at the game!

Post surgical infections are no joke. While its not uncommon in orthopaedic surgeries (lots of soft tissue and joint manipulation, some are longer cases), it would be interesting to know if this was an open surgery or not.
In any case, depending on the infectious etiology, the results can sometimes be bad. If he has MRSA (methicillin resistant S. Aureus), some bugs take long to heal or cause a bit of damage on their way out. A college basketball player (George, the 7'7") guy just had half his foot amputated and ended his basketball career.
I'm sure that Brady was not your typical 65 year old that sits at home and comes in to the doc after a week with pain with a brewing infection and that, rather, this was picked up very quickly. He'll probably clear up and be ok but the situation does warrant close evaluation. The fact that they needed to do a second surgery (probably to debride the infected area) is significant and indicates that the infection did not respond to intravenous antibiotics alone.
Keep a close eye. If I was a Pats fan, I'd be at least a little bit concerned and hope to god its some easily treatable strain of bacteria.
Good thing Cassel has been playing light out
One thing I really want to know?????
