    Robey has been terrible this year. Just terrible

    McKelvin has been, by damn wide margin, the Bills best corner. And is actually a pretty good corner.

    He is the least of the Bills problems
    I didn't say anything , really, about Robey, except he gets thrown at more often than Gilmore. Gilmore, weekly, gets burnt for a TD or at least a big first down. He hasn't been lit up as bad as McKelvin, though (who had a really good game this week, as opposed to horrendous last week, thus the hot and cold description).

    I think McKelvin has been great this year, and Gilmore a big disappointment, although he played better yesterday.

    Throw in his special teams contributions and he may be the Bills M I P.

    Gilmore and Robey have been down right awful.

    Aaron Williams stunk yesterday as well. If his hand is going to prevent him from tackling, WTF is the point of having him out there?

    I don't know if he's our best, I'd still put Gilmore as our best. You can't just go by INTs.

    McKelvin seems to have improved somewhat over this and last season, still, he's not above average and he sucked as a cover corner for the first six (or however many) seasons he's been here prior to that. He's been kept on for his return skills.

    Graham's OK, I'm familiar with him in Baltimore. He's inconsistent, has some really good games then disappears for a bunch. Low-end starter there.

    All in all the CBs aren't a huge liability, the LBs are worse against the pass. Which shouldn't come to anyone as a surprise.

    Safeties are weak.

It's a protection mechanism.

    You shroud your childish approach in a vale of pompous, intellectual garbage in an attempt to look smart and "real". You over-analyze even minute points and manipulate statistics to fit your negative view of the team. Again, to feel good about yourself and to protect from getting hurt.

    Of course, the criticisms are obviously from someone who has no understanding of the team concept or what it takes to excel at athletics.

    The true "realist" understands that they have no control of what happens on the field or behind the closed doors at One Bills' Drive, so they do the prudent thing for a spectator. They enjoy the games on Sunday with family and friends, cheer for their team and realize that it's just entertainment.

    "I was an integral part in the drafting process of EJ Manuel," Whaley said Thursday on NFL Network's Total Access. "I was the person that handled the draft process and setting up the board."

    "We are committed. I want you to believe me when I say that," Whaley said of building around the second-year quarterback, per The Buffalo News. "I always tell you guys that I'll never say never because I don't want to paint myself in a corner, but when I do say something, I do it and I mean it and I try to fulfill it."

    "We believe the addition of Sammy is going to be instant impact, not only to our quarterback, but to what our offensive coordinator can come up with game-plan wise and how defenses attack us," Whaley said.

    Whaley on EJ Manuel: "We think we got a gem in this guy." (2:30)

    "And as Mark says, if in three years maybe he's not [our quarterback of the future], then I'll be sitting there saying 'hey guys', .... anybody got a job for me?" - Doug Whaley

    LEE-OH-DUS

    That was pretty much an INT for the most part.

    Re: Leodis McKelvin is not a star

    I can never forgive McKelvin for that MNF fumble in 2009. He'd have to single handedly win a playoff game for me to I think.
    My faith doesn’t make me perfect, it makes me forgiven.
