  1. As a regular attendee at Titans game over the past decade, I can tell you that it is a normal occurrence for 50% (or more) of the stadium to be rooting for the away team. Last time we played in Nashville, almost the entire upper deck level was Bills fans. Then we took over downtown after the game. I've seen this when the Titans play Green Bay, Pittsburgh, Minnesota, etc. For whatever reason the locals just don't seem to care much about the Titans. So, I don't think anyone will need to "find" the Bills fans per se!
  2. I agree. The only thing that matters is the price. $2 million for 1 year is chump change in today's NFL. He is being paid as nothing more than a veteran 3rd back. If he gets cut, so be it. If he has something left, great. But, this is a cheap signing. As long as we don't overpay (which we didn't) then I'm fine with it.
  3. It's never a bad idea to add (reasonably priced) veteran OL depth.
  4. I can't understand why people are bitching about signing veteran wide receivers when we have absolutely no depth at the position. These guys (Beasley & Brown) come at a very reasonable price, are proven commodities in the league, and at worst give us options for some different sets on offense. We can still draft a WR (probably will at some point in the draft), but it now is no longer an absolute must. I really like these moves - get some veterans at a position of need without breaking the bank.
  5. Honestly, I had the same reaction. Was "okay," nothing more. Merry Christmas everyone!
  6. Peterman could have spiked the ball on every snap and still had a higher QB rating that what he put up over his dubious 1 1/2 year career (truth). I'm still stunned that so many people rush to defend a guy who is statistically among the worst QBs to ever set foot on an NFL field. As for the race issue, one of the things I love about sports is it is as close as you can come to a true meritocracy in this world. With a few well-publicized exceptions (e.g., Colin Kapernick) if you can play, you'll be on the field. If you can't, you won't. Tyrod wasn't very good so we moved on. I'm a Virginia Tech guy so I was rooting for Tyrod as much an anyone. But, he wasn't/isn't going to get a team to the Super Bowl. Obviously, Nate was a complete disaster. So be it. He had his shot and failed. Such is life.
  7. You basically just outed yourself as someone who never watched him play in college. Again, those of us who have season tickets to VT and watched every snap the kid took can tell you that his play did not "drop off" his senior year. He was the highest rated guard in the ACC and didn't allow a single sack. And, the "college guys don't put their hands in the ground" stuff is just nonsense. My sense is Wyatt may not be the sharpest tool in the shed, so learning the pro game may have taken him a bit longer than others. But, the other stuff just isn't true.
  8. He got in the coach's doghouse (something off the field or at practice) last season but never showed less than 100% during games. Given that guys are getting kicked off the team and transferring left-and-right this season at Virginia Tech, I'm not sure Wyatt did anything all that serious (i.e., everyone seems to be getting in Coach Fuente's doghouse).
  9. Nate could do everything but throw the football. ?
  10. As a Virginia Tech season ticket holder, I can tell you Teller absolutely dominated guys in college. Kid is a nasty run blocker. He plays like you just slapped his mother. He was VT's best offensive lineman by far the past couple of seasons and was arguably the best guard in the ACC over that span. Not sure why he lasted until the 5th round. Glad to see him finally start and do well in his debut.
  11. What's with all the 2 yard passes? ...down 4 touchdowns late.
  12. Two touchdowns scored in almost six games. It's hard to remember the last time we actually got in the end zone, but it was against the Texans several weeks ago.
  13. My boy Cam Phillips is fantastic at fighting for 50/50 balls. But, he never plays. Because.... Bills.
