    Was this guy drinking? Bills Overview on ESPN

    ESPN Bills season preview



    Buffalo missed the postseason in large part because of a porous defense. The Bills were 11th in scoring offense (23.7 points per game), but allowed 24.8 per contest. They sought improvement by signing linebackers Takeo Spikes and Jeff Posey, and drafting Angelo Crowell. Next, they brought in defensive tackle Sam Adams, who won a Super Bowl with Baltimore in 2000 and got there last season with Oakland, and used their second-round pick on end Chris Kelsay. They also added depth to the secondary by acquiring safety Izell Reese, cornerback Dainon Sidney and drafting corner Terrence Kiel.

    On offense, McGahee is the big addition -- sort of. In terms of name recognition, McGahee is the offseason acquisition. Yet, there's a good chance he'll make limited contributions in 2003. For one, he's still rehabbing the knee he severely injured in the Fiesta Bowl. Also, Buffalo signed Olandis Gary as a viable backup to Henry, so there's no rush to put McGahee on the field.




    Nice to see they can't even get the draft picks right. And I don't think the loss of Price will impact us as bad as he thinks either.

    Clayton's piece was pretty accurate, though!

    Well he also wrote that we drafted a corner named Terrence Kiel, who in reality was drafted by the San Diego Chargers. He meant to say Terrence McGee.

    I reported it to ESPN. That moron.

      Does anyone remember when these pundits told us that Buffalo was having the best off-season? Peerless Price traded for a draft pick was considered brilliant. Well, we drafted Willis McGahee! Now the sky HAS to be falling on our Buffalo franchise because we drafted Willis McGahee over William Joseph or Chris Kelsay. The ESPN Gods had already spoken at the draft.

      IF we had drafted William Joseph at #23 we would be competing for first in the AFC East...But since we drafted a running back that we "don't need" Takeo Spikes, Jeff Posey, Sam Adams, Izell Reese, Keith Mckenzie, Marcus Jones, Chris Kelsay, Dainon Sidney, Campbell, Bobby Shaw, and Sam Gash don't count.

      Sounds reasonable.

        He says "Reed (514 yds, 2 TDs)" but then "Reed had 11 catches (one for a touchdown) in the first two games, and then just 26 in the final 14 contests and no scores." 2 TD's, but only one score? lol, the dudes a moron, Reed had a TD vs. Denver, god i wish that man shot.
        Beware the sack master!

            Great post! Welcome aboard baalworship!


            These "pundits" just regurgitate whatever they hear elsewhwere.

            Very few (Like Clayton) can give you a decent breakdown that makes sense.

              i really dont think that they ripped us.. they basically stated the truth, which is we play in an incredibly tough division, and it WILL be tough to add 2 more wins.. 10-6 with our schedule is not easy... the division winner could be 9-7 very easily.

              all that matters is what happens on the field.

                  Lord of Gun & Tatonka what's up! I have read some of your posts on Finheaven, Tatonka. I am a lurker there at times. Keep those tuna on their toes?!

                  As for my name: BAAL: Pagan God of Fertility


                  I originally wanted to start an experimental band with Baalworship as the name. But I gave up on that idea and now use it as my internet alter ego.

                    Clayton did a small piece in the article above. Generally, he's very informative, both on the website and on his TV/Radio appearances.

                      I think Clayton's a reasonable bloke. But why does ESPN always have him and Sean Salisbury get into shouting matches that end with Salisbury making fun of him? Are they trying to do a PTI / Around The Horn thing? Because Clayton looks like he's not enjoying himself when it happens...
