  1. Still goin' with former Bears DT Ian Scott to push Tim Anderson into unemployment.
  2. And a well done to you as well, good to see one person man up.
  3. In reality, neither of those things were actually said. But don't let me interrupt, you had a real head of steam there.
  4. Why in the world would you trade McGahee and then bring in a stop-gap free agent halfback? If you're going to have a vet and a rookie, just let McGahee be the vet.
  5. I'd put OLB on a P6. One of our current OLBs, Angelo Crowell, was a MLB up until a couple of years ago...we have the option of drafting (or signing) an OLB and moving Crowell to the middle, and Priority 6 seems to describe this situation best.
  6. If Jake Scott is good, why didn't they tender him an offer?
  7. About Pennington, isn't 319 a bit light for a 6-7 right tackle? You'd think he could stand to benefit from putting on some more weight as left ends are generally a bit slower off the snap than right ends, and some more muscle could help him in the running game. Additionally, his 6-7 frame should allow for some more weight without losing too much speed/quickness/agility, right?
  8. Sounds like some decent depth at guard. Nothing major, but perhaps something we needed. His versatility is a plus as they say he's able to play all three line positions.
  9. I don't feel I need to address this, other than to say you really have no reason to follow this team until around this time next year, do you? Then you can just watch game film to catch up on the playoffless 2007 that you missed, and you're all set! Giving up on 2007 before free agency starts after going 5-3 in the second half of '06...catching my mistake with words doesn't change the fact that your viewpoint is retarded.
  10. Jamie Dukes was talking about the Bengals need for a playmaking OLB, for what its worth.
  11. This post is laughable. If you really think the Bills are in the same position they were in last offseason or where the Texans are now...
  12. I don't know if you actually saw it, and I know nobody wants to hear this, but Rosenhaus didn't actually say anything terrible. And while the original post in this thread has quotation marks, those aren't the words Rosenhaus used. He was actually very careful with the words he chose...when the anchor made the point that McGahee gets plenty of touches, Rosenhaus kinda sighed, and actually paused a good 3, 4 seconds...then he slowly and carefully brought up the subject of the offensive line, but really tried to do so in a way that wouldn't throw them under the bus. I'm drawing a blank on his wording, I really wish I could remember cause I think some posters would see my point. All I can say is Rosenhaus "calling out" our offensive line is far too harsh of a description of what happened. I know alot of you will call bullsh-- because I can't back it up, but whatever, I thought this post was necessary anyway.
  13. I don't like this thinking. No team should, at a stage in the game as early as we are, submit to the fact that they aren't going to win the SuperBowl. Especially the Bills, a team that won 5 of their last 7 games and has a good, young offense that came together down the stretch last year. Instead of just thinking that we'll fix the offense this year and the defense next year, we should be trying to find a way to maximize our resources to get players at every position at the level this team needs to compete NOW. There's no reason why we can't make the jump into the playoffs in '07. To already give up on this upcoming season is ludicrous.
  14. Just saw this news on NFL Network. I kinda wanted them to keep Spikes around if Fletcher left because it would give us another option other than Keith Ellison...if Spikes goes, Ellison will start in all likelihood, I'm guessing on the weak side. This would also increase the chances that we draft Patrick Willis in the 1st round. Wonder what we could get for TKO?
  15. Perhaps if we were to sign him, Neufeld could compliment him by serving as a situational lead blocker?
  16. Can you tell us a bit about Simmons? You seem to know more about your hometown Bengals than the rest of us.
  17. What makes you say that? We don't even have a starter at LDE, we rotate a couple of guys. Sometimes if you have more than one, you don't have any...and neither Kelsay nor Denney has shown any consistency, so I think thats the case here. Hopefully Kelsay will improve, because as it stands now his pass rushing abilities don't cut it, in my opinion.
  18. I'd expect them to use him on 3rd and longs as a pass rusher at DT, and I'd think he could play that role without putting on much weight. Other than that, he'll probably play end.
  19. Not trying to be an **** to you, but in my opinion the problem is that bolded part right there. There's quite a few defensive ends projected around where the Bills pick depending on what site you look at. The Cover 2 puts an emphasis on generating a pass rush with your front four, to the extent that its as simple as your defense failing if you can't do it. Last year we had one pass rusher, thats great...but I feel our defense needs another one. While improving the run defense is first priority, improving the pass rush should be on our radar as well...and while there are other avenues to improving the run D, the only way to improve the pass rush is to draft a DL early. So in my opinion, we should have let the mediocre rotation player walk instead of overpaying him, and at least kept the door open on going defensive end at #12. EDIT: And what exactly has Chris Kelsay done to be labeled a "bonafide DE"?
  20. I feel like they're doing this just to show that they re-signed someone, thanks to all the clamouring for them to bring back Nate. Kelsay should have been replaced by a real pass rusher.
  21. Why is this board so obsessed with Larry the Cable Guy? I see this post at least twice a day.
  22. It certainly looks that way if you split the stats after the first 7 games. However, one can argue the offensive performance and play calling did not change until week 11, @HOU. Here's the numbers with the line drawn after week 10, @IND: first 9 games 30 sacks....3.3/game 224 attempts.....1 sack every 7.5 attempts averages to 53 sacks in 16 games last 7 games 17 sacks....2.4/game 205 attempts.....1 sack every 12 attempts averages to 39 sacks in 16 games These numbers show a drastic improvement in pass protection from week 11 on.
