  1. Hamden will play all 4? Or did we pick up a QB with Baker on IR/wavied?

     

    1. It's Hamdan (with an A, funny thing it's spelled wrong on his TV chart as well), check his shirt.

    2. No-one was picked up.

    3. Apparently Dick Jauron has said before the game we're going to carry 3 QBs and that he wanted to see as much as he could from Hamdan in case he needs to play him in the season.

    4. Hamdan looked very good that first drive.

    5. UGLY drop for a lost TD by Mayle.

    6. WTH wasnt the stadium suppossed to be soldout? NFL Europe games had more people in the stands.

    7. O-line looks very shaky.

    8. Wright is doing well so far. Edit: eerrr D. Wright 5 8 0 4 nvm lol

  2. 1. Cut pre-season to 2 games.

    2. Reinstate NFL Europe but with 16 teams where each team is provided players by one AFC team and one NFC team, let them play in 4 divisions with division champs playing knockout playoffs, would mean 8 games max for the worldbowl winner. Schedule NFL Europe in such a way that it doesn't interfere with voluneerly camps, otas and tc.

  3. NFL.com actually broadcasts games on their website, but its only available outside the US. I read somewhere that when the deal with directv ends, they will launch something similar here in the states. Prices are high, but it would be worth it to see my Bills while I am here in Texas.

     

    NFL Game Pass

     

    Wow, I thought they stopped doing that; guess I'll have to resub for the season. <_< But they don't stream pre-season games... :rolleyes:

     

    Edit: Coverage does not include post-season broadcasts. Anyone know if pre-season is included? If so I'll sub right now else... wellllll :devil:

  4. Interesting review of Lucas Oil Stadium.

     

    People Flow, Restroom Trouble Top List Of Lucas Oil Issues

     

    They are making a drama about quote"Grand said there were also several restroom problems Sunday night, including a women's room toilet that wouldn't flush and a men's room automated towel dispenser that was malfunctioning. He said work had already begun on those issues."... Yes my friends the grand football opening night in the lucas oil stadium was a whopping disaster because one towl dispenser failed to work or broke and one toilet wouldnt flush. I say tear the stadium down and build a new one... :lol:

  5. I`m a big Edwards fan ,but it looks to me like Edwards is really hurting. This type of injury could easily be reagravated with another hit. I guess were glad we didn`t trade the bearded one. Lets Go Buffalooooo

     

    Trent was back at full practice yesterday and will be fit to start the season opener.

  6. Coming back to the waived-injured list discussion we had earlier today, Chris Brown says in his daily vid on bb.com that if Baker clears waivers he will be put on IR. I assume this has to do with the Bills beeing responsible for his paycheck for the duration of his injury.

  7. Hey, that is pretty good. Interesting insinuation about the mood in the locker room; I'd be VERY interested to know the source of that, because the players normally stick together on contract issues.

     

    What was that writer's name again? Oh, yeah. This guy. :wallbash:

     

    With all due respect Lori he isnt one to write pieces like this without sources, it's not an opinion piece. It sounds like he sourced it well.

  8. well ok lets see...they have 80 and need to cut 5 to get to 75 by tuesday night right...nothing says they cant cut more than 5 also...Im thinking these guys get called this week:

     

     

    C.J. Hawthorne WR

    Daniel Watts DE

    Dustin Fox CB

    Derrick Jones DE

    Tim Massaquoi TE

     

    then after Thursdays game:

     

    Matt Baker QB

    Johnathan Evans FB

    Scott Mayle WR

    Shaun Nua DE

    Corey Mace DE

    Copeland Bryan DE

    Courtney Anderson TE

    Donnie Spraggan LB

    William James CB

    Dwayne Wright RB

    Dustin Dickson OL

     

    Score 2/5... :thumbsup: 4/5 if you mix in the thursday cuts, Kennard Cox sure is a surprise cut.

  9. Cox will probably be brought back for the PS if no-one picks him up...the only surprise I see is that I didn't realize Baker was hurt...but I'm not sure what the waived injured list is...dose it mean hes cut but injured or??

     

    http://wiki.answers.com/Q/What_does_it_mea..._waived_injured

     

    "Waived injured' means the team is releasing the player but the player is injured. The team is responsible to pay the player until his injury has healed. This is usually done by reaching an agreement for a specific amount of money, called an injury settlement. Other teams are allowed to pick up players on the waived injured list but they are forewarned that the player is not in condition to play. Sometimes, if a player on the waived injured list is not selected by another team, the team will retain the player and place him on its injured reserve list."

     

    Not sure if it helps but it basicly says he's cut but injured, the addition of the injured reserve info add's more confusion then being helpfull. I'm surprised to hear Baker broke a rib in the Colts game he didn't look hurt at all.

     

    It certainly raises a question about thursdays game, JP looked like he hurt his thumb again in the Colts game allthough maybe they iced it simply to prevent the swelling he had earlier from returning. Certainly sounds like thursday is going to be Hamdan day.

     

    Edit: KFFL simply lists Baker as released: http://www.kffl.com/player/14914/NFL as reported by our board resident ESPN writer Tim Graham.

  10. I agree that McKelvin hasnt been as impressive as say Corner, but then again our expectations for McKelvin are higher then for Corner. Set aside the "I want my interception too, ow sjit, I misstimed and got burned for 94 yards" he did beautifully defend that deep pass that was intended for the endzone. He may be suffering from having to proof himself.

  11. DJ Fitzpatrick has an awesome part time job. He spends his summers working as a punter in NFL training camp. He's hired every may, and released every august. I wonder what he does the rest of the year?

     

    Lot's of punters are in that situation, Glenn Pakulak (http://www.kffl.com/player/5921/NFL) works in a steelmill whilst camp hopping during summers, he is NFL quality however there is simply not enough need for punters in the NFL.

  12. What's my point with this post? It's to stop complaining about prices and just enjoy the Bills while we still have them in Buffalo. And if you think its unfair to lose games to Toronto, then shut up and step up and sell out every single premium seat and luxury box in the less expensive re-furbished RWS first!

     

    Hear, hear, just support your team, spend your money now, save yourself from being heartbroken later.

     

    *. I can't describe how it felt when we lost the Amsterdam Admirals and the NFL Europe to boot. A look on youtube with all the tribute vids should tell you something; you wouldn't even wish that towards the cheatalots.
