Just $1 Million dollars....
And the beauty of it is this: it runs on hot air!

Captain Foresight kicks your ass every time.
I mean... he knows when he's going to win.
Willy Wanker for an avatar - how appropriate . . .

My favorites are when someone gets picked up at the police station by their drunk friend who also gets a DUI.
LoL

Hopefully the 5th not that its a huge difference
5th isnt great but at least its another talent we can bring in. Could also be packaged as part of a trade . .

I know there was much talk of a repeat of 2007 that ultimately came to fruition, but before we delve deeper into dispair I want everyone to imagine the following scenario:
Suppose the Monday after we beat the Pats and were all floating on cloud 9, you found out that there had been a car accident and we would be without the services of Fred Jackson, Kyle Williams, Wood, Bell, and Hairston for several weeks, if not the whole season, would you have expected the winning trend to continue? Or would you maybe think that KEY injuries had just cost us what might have been a great season?
Remember, this is after we already endured and overcame the losses of McGee, Easley, Parrish, and Merriman for the season, D. Jones for much of it, and Stevie and Troup playing through significant injuries.
I know injuries are part of the game. They're the part that makes good teams lose. We're closer than a lot of us think. Next year should be fun.*
* Assumes we resign SJ
The Bills need a strong draft, some key FA signings, a good defensive philosophy, and receivers who can freakin' hold on to catchable balls. I EXPECT a winning record next year.

What a tragic end to this....
Very sad and I can't help but think that the scandal took a physical toll on JoePa.
-
He is in the NFC Championship game. We started talking about the offseason and the draft before Thanksgiving.

I'm very underwhelmed by this year's potential class, lots of good names there, but very few great. I would only put Haley and (I guess) Parcells above Andre, and then there is a pretty big gap. So, I think this is his year.
I think Parcells is a shoo-in. Brown has better stats than Andre, but given a choice between the 3 receivers on the ballet this year, Andre Reed is the guy I would want on my team. The only guy from his era that I would have taken over Reed is Jerry Rice.

Everything has a cycle. We will be on top again sometime. Maybe 20 years from now. But it will happen.
I hope it doesn't go that long - I'd like to see the Bills at a playoff game again before I'm too old to drive myself to the games! It's been 15 years since the Bills hosted a playoff game! (and 16 years since they WON a playoff game!)
-
I wish we had all 5 back but if I had to pick one, Id pick Greer because he was good then, good now, and never did us wrong.
Greer - excellent player and a character guy too. Peters - unquestionable talent. But I wonder if he really would have been happy finishing his career in Buffalo.

out, going nowhere, running for the bus, etc, small market team. But NYC large market team, 7 million plus, do not have a sellout for their home playoff game per this mornings new york post, WOW.
Not to mention that the Atlanta metro area in home to 5.2 million people. You would think that at least a few thousand would make the trip to NY to see their team play - except that between plane tix, game tix, hotel, etc - it's probably a $2500.00 weekend for a couple. . .

Part of the reason I hate the NFL right now, I was laid off from teaching in Georgia 2.5 years ago, and have been subbing and getting my masters since. So, I have been making ~$10,000/yr while at this point working 3 jobs. I know I am not the typical demographic for who the NFL would ever try to attract at this point and time, but I couldn't even afford to take off work at job #3 this year to watch a Bills game live. With the NFL's greed, it is no wonder why my generation is resorting to downloading torrents of the blacked out games.
Prices have gotten absolutely ridiculous. I haven't gone to see a Bills game in a few years now; last time I had very good seats and they were $35 a piece - reasonable. The only tickets I would pay $400 for would be a Superbowl, and the Bills would have to be in it!
-
Knowing the NFL, they will somehow try to justify the Bills playing NE in Toronto. There really aren't any other home opponents that guarantee a big crowd.
-
I still think this franchise would be in a better place today, if TD hadn't been canned. I also don't think Mike Mularkey was a bad coach. What happened after TD was fired really set this franchise back.
I seriously can't believe you posted this.

The news isn't that they are taking him, I think the news is that there is a good chance Peyton is on his way out.
Giving the fact he has had 3 NECK surgeries in the past 2 years, I would not be shocked if Peyton retires in the off-season, and I don't think he owes the Colts anything. He will be 36 years old, he has taken the Colts to the SB twice, and has given them 13 great seasons of football. Assuming Andrew Luck lives up to the hype, the Colts are very fortunate that fate somehow smiled on them again and delivered another franchise QB to their doorstep.
The 2-14 record this year also shows just how much the Colts have relied on Manning over the past few years.

Wow - she must still be really pissed!
I hate seeing people blow cash like that.
But compared to the government, she's a light-weight . . .

I agree with Schef coaches need more time to build for the long term. Give your coach a chance.
I'm ok with a 4-year window of opportunity. At the end of a 4-year rebuilding project, a team should have a double-digit (10-6 or better) winning record, and SHOULD be in the playoffs. As we have seen in the past however, even an 11-5 record does not guarantee a playoff appearance.
I hope that the Bills are at least a 9-7 team next year. This is an important off-season. Need to find some new starters, and build depth at key positions.

Houston
Saints
Jints
Steelers
The Bills are out and tackle football bores me in general, so I won't watch or care until the superbowl.
And even then, it's just for the party.
Those are preety much my sentiments.

So it's been 11 years ssince Andre Reed retired. He's been referred to as "Future Hall of Famer" since the mid 90's. Here we are many years later and he still isn't in.
My thoughts: Andre was one of the best receivers of his era, but he will always be over-shadowed by Jerry Rice. There were also a few other terrific receivers in the same timeframe; some with better stats. I think if the Bills had won SB XXV and XXVIII, he would already be in.

Maybin could be a special teams ACE!

The media isn't giving Denver any chance this week and by how their offense mainly Tebow has been playing it's hard to think otherwise, but I think this game will be a tight game with Denver pulling it out in the end. I think Denver's D matches up well to Pittsburgh and Pittsburgh has struggled offensively at times throughout the season putting up points. I think the Denver's defense will have a point to prove and can keep them in this game with the momentum changing with some special teams or a long run by McGahee to spring open the game in the 4th and win by a field goal!
I wouldn't be surprised if this is a very boring game to watch.
I think the Steelers win in a rout.

When the world slips you a Jeffrey, stroke the furry walls.
I think it slipped us more than a Jeffrey this year...
