WTF??? Looks like they have already given up on the 2011-12 season They could have at least waited til the trade deadline or something when it was obvious that they aren't gonna make the playoffs Good point! The Bills are in hard competition with the Redskins, Bengals, 49ers and Dolphins in the Andrew Luck sweepstakes... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just seeing some of the video from the Cardinal practices, he's someone I would certainly love to have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Draco Posted August 14, 2011 Author Share Posted August 14, 2011 9 snaps, 2 sacks. Merriman looked great. The rest of the defense against the NFC Runners up looked good. I know, preseason and all that, but I'm pleased with what I saw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bills defense looks good, but they have no offense and they just let their best receiver go. You can't win if you can't score points. The Bears have the worst offensive line in the NFL...

I wouldn't sell Fitzpatrick, Spiller, et. al. short. No. They're not going to light up the scoreboard, but they will be very efficient in the short passing game. Lee Evans was their best receiver, but the Bills have capable receivers on the roster. Call it "receiver by committee" rather than just relying on one big threat. The Bears might have the worst offensive line in the NFL, but they averaged 30 plus points a game their last 3 games of last year. Overall, a solid effort by the Bills.

laughedatbytime Posted August 14, 2011 Share Posted August 14, 2011 You can't read too much into preseason games. The best example of that is that the Lions went 4-0 in the preseason, and then went 0-16 in the regular season. I kind of wish you could, seeing as my Dolphins beat the team with the best regular season record in the NFC last year, the Falcons, 28-23, and Browns fans would I'm sure based on their defeat of the defending Super Bowl champions, but there really is no correlation...the only really important things that happen in the preseason are injuries.

Draco Posted September 4, 2011 Author Share Posted September 4, 2011 Thanks duck! Bills also picked up TE Lee Smith off of waivers from the Patriots, and signed the following to the practice squad. Levi Brown is going to be a perennial practice squad player!

Draco Posted September 4, 2011 Author Share Posted September 4, 2011 After watching the first half of the game yesterday (my roommate snagged the remote and watched some sci-fi movie ), all I have to say is that Merriman looks ready! I'm excited to see what happens, and if he can stay healthy, he is going to make the defense pretty darn good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
