    The state of our RB's

    It's been a very long time since I have posted, but I am fed up with this. We have one involved in a bar fight with cops getting jumped, one stopped for DUI, and one for substance abuse. Maybe its just me but is it that hard to stay out of trouble? These guys are getting hundreds of thousands and even millions of dollars to play football. Marv Levy once said one of the keys to winning is not to play stupid. How can we expect to win when our players can't even make the right decisions for a month. I don't want this turning into I am not a fan. Anyone who truly knows me knows I bleed the Bills I am just getting sick and tired of the stupidity of some of our players. I just wish they would pull their heads out of their a$$e$$.

    The rain is driving you inside isn't it ?? Pretty nasty little storms we've had lately ??

    That being said, our coaches need to have an intervention.

    Society as a whole is far dumber than ever. It's now ME over WE.

    $ never affects the decision making process. Twitter proves this daily.

    Gilislee is going to light it up. Williams and Williams will be picking splinters out of their rear ends.

    Dunno, the first four Bills games are against good run defenses...all top ten from last year except the Ravens, who were 12th. All were top ten in terms of yards per carry allowed.

    While he showed potential, Gillislee will have to show me more, and he should get somewhat of a chance. I did not like way he looked at all against the Jets in the final game, where he got about half his carries last year. Dunno how long Jonathan Williams will be out if and when he'll be suspended, but MCoy should still get the overwhelming bulk of carries anyway IMO. We'll still eventually need all of those Bills...er, I mean Williams.

    Maybe it's time to stop with accruing Williams's.

    I mean, this was easy to see coming if you're a good GM. Character issues + lack of accountability and circus atmosphere from staff = what we have now


    <--Big Gillislee fan though

    Shady's a black dude who fought a cop in the United States. If he was even remotely at fault, you KNOW charges would have been filed.

    the only runningback who will not be a factor is Karlos W. the rookie Williams will play every game in 2016 and nothing will be any different than last year, after week 4 we might have to get rid of a running back.
