Straight Hucklebuck Posted May 7, 2017 Share Posted May 7, 2017 (edited) How you can say they have no one behind William/Dareus and Hughes while ignoring the fact that they just drafted Lawson and Washington last year is where I would suggest you're being negative just to be negative.No, I just pulled up the roster and depth chart. I stand by what I've said. We are thin, especially in Front 7. 2006 - Williams 2007 - No DT 2008 - No DT 2009 - No DT 2010 - Troup, Carrington 2011 - Dareus, maybe Jasper 2012 - No DT 2013 - No DT 2014 - No DT 2015 - No DT 2016 - Washington 2017 - No DT Washington had his snaps reduced as the year went on and was sitting at the end of last season. Our DE starters are Hughes and Lawson, then street free agents. The other evidence of this lack of front 7 depth is not being able to stop the run. 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, and 2016 the Bills have been 22nd against the run of worse.

QCity Posted May 7, 2017 Share Posted May 7, 2017 Actually, this has worked in the recent past. I think when CBF became a mod he made a "positive" thread and a "negative" thread, and it worked to some degree. The "positive" thread only lasts until October.

D. L. Hot-Flamethrower Posted May 7, 2017 Share Posted May 7, 2017 Nothing wrong with stating your opinion one way or the other. I have done so myself many times.

sfladave Posted May 7, 2017 Share Posted May 7, 2017 22 years. I was in middle school. Elite morals, elite fandom go out the window at that point. This is a 5-6 win team. I'll be happy to take some action from you on that middle school boy! I'll lay $100 on over 5.5 wins. Show me the confidence of your written words by taking me up on that! Or was your post a meaningless shadow of this topic that you felt compelled to post on?

Alphadawg7 Posted May 7, 2017 Share Posted May 7, 2017 It would be nice to have people with critical thinking skills dominate but I understand that those with no critical thinking skills will want to participate. My issue with this type is their constant bullying of the people who bring more to the table. It would be nice if you followed your own wishes... And it would be nicer if Bills fans didn't have Avatars of other teams players... And it would be sweeter if Mods would temp suspend posters claiming to be a Bills fan that yet still insist on having another teams player as their Avatar... And it would be even sweeter if we didn't have countless threads started about players who aren't Bills, never have been a Bill, and never were going to be a Bill...

boyst Posted May 7, 2017 Share Posted May 7, 2017 Do you mean like people that spew negativity about other posters who allegedly spew negativity? How can people make negative posts about other fans, let alone start entire threads slamming them, and then claim to not be negative? It's very strange. this is why the shout box is so often terrible. Game days are the worst No, I just pulled up the roster and depth chart. I stand by what I've said.

Its a tough sell. Around Dareus we have nothing. Hughes either mailed it in last year or fell off that much. I'm inclined to say fell off. Our DL as is with what is at LB and now razor thin at DB is going to mean we are terrible on defense next year as we focused the last two years on offense.

This board would be down to 2 or three unreadable threads if we did that. Save a lot of threads. You're calling me a Kool Aid drinker? I hated Marv being named GM. I hated hiring jauron. I hated Doug Edwards and Dave wannstedt as D.C. I hated Fitz. I hated Schwartz being let go. I don't think tyrod will lead us anywhere. If we tanked this season on purpose, I would be ok with it. I hated all of those things, yet I didn't turn every thread into whining and crying about those things (although I remember blasting Fitz a lot during games, and I apologize if i went overboard) Yes, I liked Doug Whaley. If liking Doug Whaley makes me a Kool Aid drinker, I guess I'm a Kool Aid drinker. I think I'm one of the more rational posters here and try not to let my emotions get the best of me, although reading the same exact whining and crying posts by the same posters littered in every single thread tends to get the best of my emotions.
