KOKBILLS

I grew up in LA as HUGE Dodgers and Lakers Fan...Baseball was my sport, so I enjoyed seeing my Boys in Blue win it all in 81, and 88...I was a big-time Magic Johnson Fan...So that era was awesome...I'm also a Michigan Football Fan and of course they shared the 97 Title... But saying all that I've had a hell of a dry spell...And I've always been a bigger Bills Fan than any of my other Teams...So it hurts a little more I guess...

Exactly...And they are not very good at SS either... If these Bills were better at the 1st guy bringing the ball carrier down, heck even slowing them down, this Defense would be WAY ahead of where they are now...They make a lot of mistakes on Defense...But to my untrained eye I would say the poor tackling is by far the biggest issue to this point...The yards after initial contact have been massive in the 3 losses especially...Once again we are stuck looking at a Defense that seemingly gets out-physical-ed...And that's mainly due to the fact that they tackle very poorly at times...

Hull will always be one of the greatest Buffalo Bills players on and off the field...No one deserves their spot on the wall more than KH...RIP Sir...

Can't trade picks...Need them all to deal for #1 overall and Geno...

Do you even have any idea how uninformed that post is?

Exactly... Some folks still, somehow, seem have it ass backwards around here. Despite what they have obviously seen with their own two eyes...It never ceases to amaze me...

100% uninformed wishful thinking tells me we will give up the farm for Geno!!! So how's that for hard facts?

Agreed!

I think Fewell might be the #1 Candidate should the Bills dump Gailey...Which I doubt they will... But someone remind me...Why is Perry Fewell not the DC in Buffalo right now? How is that decision looking now? In hindsight I think Nix and Gailey would have (and should have) begged Fewell to stick around...It's not like anyone was going to give Perry a HC job...The Bills could have made him Asst HC at least...He's most definitely a solid up-and-coming Defensive Coach, and he was FAR more qualified than Edwards...I mean WAY more qualified...And we had him...Beautiful!

Easy answer...This is The Buffalo Bills Organization...If there is a wrong decision to be made...Chances are we've done it...

Could not possibly agree more! Great Post...

This I would be thrilled with!!! This may very well end up being the thread that tells me who I would like to hang with on this board, and who I would not... RATM and Audioslave over SG?...No thanks...Don't like Rage much because I like actual singers who sing...Audioslave was cool for a side-project...But Soundgarden is epic...One of the greatest Rock Bands in the past 25 years...And that's not just my opinion...But I'm a grunge guy by way of being a metal head... And I would not listen to anything Jay-Z did if it came with a serious cash bonus...Personally I have an inner battle everyday about what I hate more... Rap, Hip Hop, or New Country...But I hate them all...A lot...A real, real, real, lot...

Seriously? UGH!!! I'm sure she'll roll out Jay-Z too...I'll change the channel thank you very much... They should have asked Soundgarden...hehe

Agreed...The design is set...He plays at WVU currently...GET HIM!!!

The Rivers bashing here is somewhat laughable...Now I will say this...It is possible at this point that Rivers is on the permanent decline...This is his 9th Season...It happens...BUT...We're talking about a QB with a CAREER 95 QB Rating, and a 2:1 TD to INT ratio...He is light years better than what we have now...Even though he would not be my QB of choice from here on out...Still...Rivers has had a hell of a good 8 NFL years..And assuming he would be better than Fitz in Gailey's Offense is like assuming a bear craps in the woods...It's an easy assumption to make....

It's funny because way back after Fitz's first year with Gailey...The Edwards year...There were many here who said they wanted Fitz to be the QB because they believed he was going to be just like Drew Brees...He was only going to get better now that he had all this great Coaching...My argument was simple...The Fitz backers were ignoring the evidence they had right in front of them, Fitz's record and stats to that point...So I asked over and over again...What if he does not continue to get better? What if he continues to be who he has been to this point...Up and down and limited? What then? You know what assuming gets you? Well now it's not what if, it's what now? I don't think anyone needed a crystal ball to know this was going to happen with Fitz...Nix and Gailey should have known...I blame them...

No offense...But if you think most of Fitz mistakes come from play calling I have to question your overall ability to critique the QB position...It's not play calling...It's Fitz...You do realize he's been doing this for a while now don't you?...In the NFL as a Starter...There is evidence...He's Fitz...And he's always going to be Fitz...He will most certainly get hot again...That's what he does...Then he gets cold again...He still can't hit a deep pass...And so on...And so on...

No question...But I'm pretty sure the better QB's in the league do similar things, and still manage to hit a receiver in stride every now and again...

All that is true... But the way they are playing, and being Coached, right now they have zero chance of making the Playoffs...They have a QB who looks awful, a Defense that has tackling problems among other things, injury issues on both lines, and Coaches without a clue at times... Can they turn it around? No question...But based on the way they look right now I'm going to be guarded with ANY optimism...I've learned my lesson...

Positives: The Defense played the run better and got good pressure at times vs a terrible O-Line...Spiller and Freddie look most-of-the-way back...BYRD... Negatives: Fitz, he's awful...Missed freaking tackles, just terrible tackling at times...The QB scrambles allowed, without them Az had almost no Offense...Gailey and his cute play calling again...

IF he comes out...I don't think he'll go in the 2nd or 3rd...Meaning he'll come out if he gets a 1st Round Grade from the Advisory Board... I think it's important to remember that QB's are going to continue to be over-drafted due to the Rookie Salary scale...

Exactly... Hopefully... Not if they play Defense the way they did the last 6 Quarters...

Slow and stiff? Really? Not at Alabama he wasn't...No way... UGH!!! This kills me because the kid is my favorite Bills player...It just kills me...But... Folks...It's pretty much this simple IMHO...Dareus ran a 4.92 and killed it at the Combine in just about every area...He was a stand out player in his last 2 years at Alabama...Quick and strong...Almost a flawless prospect...So what has happened? 20 plus pounds, that's what...Dareus weighed in at 319 at Indy...He admitted to being about 340 at Camp this year...I'm trying to find the interview where he shrugged off the question about his weight...But there is no question it's effecting his play...He's only 6-3...He needs to be at about 315-320...Just look at him...He looks overweight...It's a problem because Dareus combined strength with quickness to become one of the better College DT's coming out in recent years...The extra lbs have killed that quickness...I can't believe the Bills Coaching Staff let him get that big...It tells me a lot about the lack of attention to detail Chan has passed down...It also makes me wonder about Dareus' work ethic and desire to be the best he can be... And it's JMO...But I don't think the death of his brother is the main cause of his down play whatsoever...And I'm not trying to say he's not effected by it either...What I am saying is Bills Fans have just started to notice what was apparent before the death of the kids brother...This is not something new with Dareus...He's showed flashes, but he's rarely played up to his capability since he's been a Buffalo Bill...And he's been terrible vs the run for the majority of his Pro career...Go watch the tape...You'll see...Players who have 1/4 of Marcell's physical ability are FAR better vs the run... Marcell is underachieving it's nothing new, and the Bills passed on not one, not two, not even three, but FIVE Pro-Bowl players in favor of Dareus...You just gotta love this Teams luck... It's not too late for Dareus to turn it around...But he's going to have to drop the weight, grow a killer instinct, and regain that quickness off the ball he lacks all too often now...

Not to mention Julio Jones, JJ Watt, and Aldon Smith were all Drafted after the Top 5...
