sharper802 Posted September 16, 2010 Share Posted September 16, 2010 We might not be 32nd. But we're bottom five or so, and what's the difference. Exactly. Is it a point of pride that they may be better than Oakland, Cleveland, and Tampa Bay??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thewildrabbit Posted September 16, 2010 Share Posted September 16, 2010 Yea the Bills were pretty much one of the worst teams in the NFL in week one....they had the worst O line, no question I suppose the future rank will depend on whether or not Chan Gailey can manage to have his fat a$$ O lineman actually block someone in the next few weeks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Albany,n.y. Posted September 16, 2010 Share Posted September 16, 2010 We are because with our schedule, we will end up with the worst record. Here are the problem areas: QB: We have 1 decent career backup(Fitzpatrick) and 2 bums-bum #1 starts and bum #3 was lucky that Levi Brown was so bad that he was able to easily beat him out. OT: People can dream all they want but Bell is a long way from a decent LT & Green is worse than a guy we could pick up from the UFL. Backups are GB reject Meredith, who is the best of the guys on the bench; Wang, a rookie with a cast on his hand who hasn't played yet, and pick a guard to move if anyone else goes down. TE: Stupar, a guy we cut last year & Martin a guy the Dolphins cut. We're waiting for S.Nelson to save the day. DL: Starters 2 of 3 guys who are learning a new position and a couple of rookies. LB: With the Poz injury-1 guy plaing the position for the 1st time, 2 guys cut from other teams & now Ellison starting. Maybin-don't get me started! This group reminds me of the bad LBs of the mid 1980s. I remember the Bills picking up George Cumby off waivers and immediately penciling him into the starting lineup. This team is the worst Bills team, talent-wise, since 1984. I predicted 3-13 before the season started & I now think that's too high since one of the 3 wins I had was opening day. It's sad, but it's true. A lot of fans got delusional in the off season thinking that the coaching change would erase the lack of talent. By the time this season is over, some may view last year's staff as miracle workers getting 6 wins (5 + Indy giving us one) out of that team. I'm in it for the long haul, so if we're as bad as I think we are, I'll just laugh at the comedy and hope for better days in the future. In 1984 we were horrible, the 1985 draft brought Bruce Smith, Andre Reed, Frank Reich, all three were on 4 Super Bowl teams. Bad teams do get better after they bottom out. The reason we've been so bad is that we keep missing impact players by 3-5 picks then reach and get backups or busts instead of starters in the 1st round.

CosmicBills Posted September 16, 2010 Share Posted September 16, 2010 ... Chan hasnt coached a game in years dont you think he will be rusty. I don't know what's more pathetic. The fact that you're using this as an excuse or that you may actually believe it. Think about what you said in that statement. This is an N.F.L. team. There are only 32 of these jobs available in the entire world. People would kill for that job. But you're saying that it's okay the Bills hired a retread head coach who's been out of the game and is "rusty" at COACHING. Holy crap! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CardinalScotts Posted September 16, 2010 Share Posted September 16, 2010 I didn't see anything Sunday to indicate they weren't the worst in the league. I'll be a Bills fan all my life, but, right now, they stink. wow over react to week one, I would have hated to be around you when you couldn't get date for a Saturday night Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
section122 Posted September 16, 2010 Share Posted September 16, 2010 man do you fans stink....they should call you guys the buffalo babies...get a life already and support your freakin team or jump ship losers. go Bills.... +1 I find it odd that we all expected them to be bad but after 1 game ppl are mad that they lost and trashing everyone/everything... half full time for you... dolphins expected to contend in division and we had the ball with a chance to win the game.... twice enough is enough most ppl expected 6-10ish which means 9 more times were gonna have to hear all of this? The 24 hour rule needs to be applied on this board! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philo Posted September 16, 2010 Share Posted September 16, 2010 (edited) In 1984 we were horrible, the 1985 draft brought Bruce Smith, Andre Reed, Frank Reich, all three were on 4 Super Bowl teams. Bad teams do get better after they bottom out. The reason we've been so bad is that we keep missing impact players by 3-5 picks then reach and get backups or busts instead of starters in the 1st round. We need a draft like this...and soon. You are correct that we have been missing out the past few drafts, so a year where we get those high picks and get those impact players would be very beneficial. I'm not saying I want the Bills to be terrible this year for that sole purpose, but if it happens it may be just what we need. Edited September 16, 2010 by Playoffs?
