But I think we will make some noise this year.Every thing is comming together,It all depends on how Bledsoe plays.

True dat! I have been willing to give Drew the benefit of the doubt for sucking so bad last year, and call it an off-year for him. He has so many weapons around him this year, with healthy Moulds, speedy Evans, and Reed in the slot (not to mention Shaw), as well as the Volcane-O with TH and WM. Not to mention the OL, though talent is about the same as last year, coaching has been greatly upgraded w/McNally.

Bottom line: this year, there are no excuses for Drew.

I just got news that Lee Evans is going to wear jersey#83. So what # is Cambell going to wear, i thought that he decided that he was going to wear 83 after dave moore left???

He did catch over nine hundred balls for us. I don't think that would be going crazy.

But in 50 years, we'll be out of numbers.

I agree. 78, 12 and 83 should be off limits for awhile. Maybe not retired right now but just off limits. I know 12 is retired.

Nobody wears 32,34 and 78. 83 was off limits for a few years, but they gave it out.

It maybe time to let the # 32 out. A little episode on Bundy Drive in Brentwood should be a good enough reason.

Love Evans hope he is a brilliant reciever but 83 is gonna be Reed in my heart for a long time.

All I have to say is Evans better earn it. It isnt just a number to us Bills fans.

#83 should have been retired IMO. Same with #78, #34 and #12. That was a group we'll never see again on one team IMO.

Glad to see he got 83, even though it should be retired

I'll love seeing a great receiver back in number 83. I may even break out my old 83 Reed shirt this season.

#34 should definitely be retired. Thurman was if not THE greatest Bill, he's definitely top 3. #34 should be retired like #12 was, even after this latest incident. I mean, it was only 1/2 joint. Big deal...

Thing is, nobody will ever go to 4 straight again. That much is certain. So given 12, 34, 78 and 83 were the core of that team...and given all will be HoF....it just makes sense to retire them as a group and forever hold them as a special group.
