    Of course, they should have just drafted Bryant instead of Spiller but that's a whole separate point entirely.

    For some reason though there's games where Orton or EJ simply just didn't look his way and it's baffling. It's also baffling that they don't have designed bubble screens to try and get Watkins in space to make a play. Watching the Browns game yesterday I saw the Browns have two designed bubble screens to Gordon to put the ball in their best playmakers hands, he gained about 30 yards on the two plays and it made me wonder why the hell that's not in the playbook here.
    The problem is, both QBs are so inaccurate (Orton less so than EJ, but still wildly inconsistent) that it doesn't matter if you had Sammy AND Dez Bryant, which speaks to the larger question: Was it wise to spend so much on a WR--any WR--when you have a gaping need at QB.

    If you need an answer to that question, just look at the Bills' season.

    i practically agree with your basic sentiment, but you unwavering lack of support of hoping that what has actually happened plays out well so the team can actually get out from under this playoff drought is irritating.

    I think our pass protection is a bigger problem than our QB's inaccuracies. Watch the handful of plays where Orton has time to throw, he can hit the open guy. Not many QBs are accurate throwing the ball 2 seconds before they should be.

    This is why some bubble screens should be run. Get the ball in the hands of your best playmaker and see if he can make some plays. It will also keep corners honest to not give huge cushion which later on you can take advantage of by trying to go deep.

    But again inexplicably bubble screens aren't in the playbook. Don't get it.

    Can you remember the last time the Bills were consistently able to run screen plays? I really can't.

    If you take away the Bills losses they are the best team in the league.

    See what I did there?

    When Watkins has his next big game Fletch will just say if you take away his 3 longest catches it wasn't a very good game.

    I've seen some blips claiming it was the best catch ever. Hell, it isn't even the best catch by a Giant. Tyree's catch in the Super Bowl was better.

    LOL

    Rigth, you lecturing me on being disingenuous. I've asked you about a half dozen questions regarding this situation and you haven't answered a single one.

    I'm not even going to bother asking anymore. Talk about disingenuous.

    I distinctly recall not posting such after the Jets game for reasons having nothing to do with anything since Watkins still wasn't leading in most categories, but rather out of deference to everyone's good mood.

    Man you're cynical.

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

    Yeah, now I'm Wys too. LOL

    That puts me up to what, about a dozen different posters.

    Do you guys really think that one or two people are all those posters?

    Like I said, I'll admit to being all of them.

    Try talking football sometime in stead of all this garbage.
