I don't expect their sacks to surpass last years sacks . I do however people from the backfield to increase their sack nos.
For what he IS being paid you SHOULD expect more, ... I guess I can see why you wouldn't expect anything more from him. Play it safe, and collect that check!
He was brought on to this team because he was supposed to be awesome .. I am still waiting.

the fact that coastal wrote this two/three years ago and he can only sling some mud here and there shows how wrong he's been. people give op a hard time for defendings his position. but at no time has he ever said anything this obtuse and continued to support it like a knowledgable fan.
He has been slinging mud the ENTIRE time .. Mario is FOOL'S gold :D

Maybe it's time to fake another emergency wrist surgery.
Maybe it's time to get a new agenda. Mario played just fine.
Re: Mario Williams is "Fools Gold"
It's adorable that coastal has blondie carrying his water now.

Mario... the$100 million NFL football defensive lineman warrior... said no one ever.
Re: Mario Williams is "Fools Gold"
please post this fools gold theory on a team's message board that can't stop the run and can't get to the qb, like we did before we got him. and let us know if they would want a guy who would take us from a bad defense to a top 5 one.
and only two people are stupid enough to think otherwise...and they post in this thread quite a bit.

But let's forget about money for a minute, and just talk about what Williams has accomplished on the field in his first three seasons with the Bills. He has accumulated 38 sacks. That's the highest number of quarterback take-downs that a Bills defender has mustered in three seasons since first-ballot Hall of Fame pass rusher Bruce Smith did it in 1995-7. Williams also hit the double-digit sack mark in each of those three seasons, the first Bill to accomplish that since - you guessed it - Smith pulled it off in 1996-8. Williams' 38 sacks rank sixth - sixth - in Bills franchise history.
Quote:
Those 38 sacks are also the fourth-highest total in the NFL by any individual over that three-year span. J.J. Watt (51.5 sacks), Justin Houston (43), and Robert Quinn (40) are the only three players that have more.
Quote:
On Mario Williams: "When Houston let Williams walk as a free agent in 2009 following a season in which he had 5.0 sacks and played in just five games, most assumed it was all aboard the Decline Train, last stop: Buffalo. Since then, all Williams has done is pile up 38.0 sacks and, in 2014, his first All-Pro selection (to go with four Pro Bowl invites).
He has never missed a game since coming to Buffalo. He holds the Bills Franchise record for most sacks in a game (4.5). His production has steadily gone UP each year with Buffalo – 10.5, 13 and 14.5 Sacks each year. he's also forced 5 fumbles and had 10 pass defenses in those three years. This all happening after he was signed by the Bills in 2012 – following a 6-10 season for a perennial bottom feeder. Free agents weren't exactly knocking down the door to sign in Buffalo. He got his guaranteed money - he could have easily pulled a Albert Haynesworth (20 games with the Redskins and 6.5 sacks...), but instead, he just went on to be one of the most dominant defensive players in Bills history - while driving tickets sales, and showing that the Bills were actually willing to pay for talent...

Many pundits were suprised when the Bills signed
Mario Williams to a record-breaking six-year, $96 million contract with $31.4 million guaranteed. Williams was coming off a season in which he suffered a torn pectoral and only played five games for the
Texans. It was unclear how he’d respond in Buffalo.
Well, Williams is halfway through his megadeal, and it doesn’t look all that outrageous.
2007–11: 194 tackles, 48.5 sacks, 10 forced fumbles
2012–14: 126 tackles, 38 sacks, five forced fumbles
With Buffalo touting plenty of explosive weapons on offense for new head coach Rex Ryan to use, the Williams signing looks like a shrewd move that established the franchise’s renewed commitment to winning.
