    Did we need to spend $100 Miilion on one guy when we're horrible ??

    Mario looks worse than putting $200 Million into a ~40 year old stadium, how much shine can you get on a turd ?

    I am so sick of people questioning this move. We have *****ed and moaned for EVER that we don't spend money on free agents, blah blah blah. We FINALLY do. And now 5 games in, we shouldn't have? Give me a break. He's a good player, Im happy we have him.
    True fans want wins, not draft picks.

      He is a good player, on a horribly coached team. So where exactly are we going ?

        Would you rather have him, or not? If we didn't spend the money on him would we have spent it anywhere else?

          I'd rather have a Peyton Manning type guy & spend $100 Million on a winner versus a variable that can't stay healthy.

            What is a 'Peyton Manning type guy?' Who exactly is that?

              what a dumb thread. The money doesn't even come from the same place for these 2 different things

                Y'all should have signed TEBOW!
                I was banned for calling Yardie a coward, by DB, in a tread about women’s issues happening right now in America. Nothing better than republican men silencing women’s voices, especially in the Buffalo Spin zone!!

                  I agree with you here. For the fans that *****ed and moaned, you got what you wanted.

                  Wasn't a big fan of the signing myself, thought it was a bit irresponsible, but most of the fan base wanted this to happen. IF I didn't have a Texans fan as a friend I would have probably been more excited by the move, but his Mario rants are embedded in my memory for life.

                    We could of handed Peyton a blank check & filled it in the same way, so it's about having a known winner.

                      Peyton would have flushed the check down the toilet, winners don't go to Buffalo.

                          Peyton was looking at playoff-Super Bowl caliber teams. The Niners, the Broncos. Miami wanted him and I dont think he even visited them.

                            I guess we could have had Vincent Jackson instead? I'll take the DE who is 4 years younger

                              That depends on who your asking. lol You know why they went and spent that kind of money on the guy. It sold tickets. The Bills had what, 3 home games sold out by the end of pre-season? Gold.
