Aren't We missing something Here?
So much to read and so much to comment on. We lost two out of three games aganist teams that most of us predicted would happen. We have had some key injuries which has had an effect in these losses and many, many, many, multiple errors, penalties, drops turnovers etc... Yet we were in every single game until late in the fourth period. We are 1-2 going into Miami. So much finger pointing has been going on it is borderline ridiculous. How do you replace a Paul Pozlusny, Derrick Schouman and a Brad Butler? You don't you send in their replacements and turn it up a notch. We have been in every game and are exactly where many of us predicted we would be. Just a few more thoughts.

The Flip Side of the Packers PreSeason Game
This game easily exposed some glaring weaknesses. In a nut shell we took two steps forward and three steps back. The pack on the other hand took another step forward. Looking back to last year. They dealt with the B. Farve situation, finally holding ground and going with Aaron Rodgers. In our world Aaron Rodgers could be a top five fantasy QB, where last year he was a steal in the fifth round or later. The Pack lacked a running game last year, Ryan Grant was supposed to be the ring leader and probably taken before A. Rodgers in a draft. He never had a chance. There defense lost more games for them than their offense won. Leading to a #9 overall pick in this years draft. What did they do, brought in a new DC, implemented a new 3-4 defense and have succeeded in two preseason games against the browns and now the bills.

#2 QB Ryan Fitzpatrick
There hasn't been allot of love thrown towards this guy. Almost to the point where you could count on one hand the number of rumbler's that support him. Recently, we discussed the importance of Trent Edwards to our offense, and Trent is in the critical point of his career. Having success this year running the offense and we will need to lock him up long term. We are talking some big bucks here. Trent is undeniably our #1 QB but is his situation any different than that of his back up. Yes he is expected to lead, but isn't Ryan expected to sail the ship without a glaring drop off. This post is to keep us focused on the importance of our back up QB Ryan Fitzpatrick. Your true thoughts after the jump.

The Next Steps in the Process
Where do we go from here? Camp starts soon but not soon enough. We need to sign our draft picks. Then we will be gathering our 2009 Bills team and mold them into the playoff team we have been drooling for since the turn of the century. During Camp we will see allot of pretty exciting things and all of us will be escalating our hopes for the up coming season and that Monday Night Game against the Patriots. During Camp we will undoubtedly witness some negatives as well. More specifically Injuries. Also, we will endure the inevitable roster cuts to trim us to the 53 men that will lead us into January and February. All teams will be doing this. Some have already started. Looking for your thoughts after the Jump.

Was Our 2009 Draft a Plan B Approach
Pre draft we focused on pass rush and a top tight end that would impact immediately with our offensive style. Then we traded Jason Peters to the eagles after cutting loose our right guard and centers. Signed a free agent Center from the Panthers which should prove to be a big positive. That brings us to a pass rush, impact tight end, left tackle and left guard. In hind - sight we can logically see what the thinking was at OBD but WHAT IF.
