TrueBlueGED Posted May 17, 2016 Report Posted May 17, 2016 I can only hope the Bills don't suck long enough to make me as bitter, pessimistic downtrodden, and defeated as the rest of you. You people:Bills as Qwk:GoT. Quote
CallawaySabres Posted May 17, 2016 Report Posted May 17, 2016 The Bills had no chance of making playoffs before these injuries anyway....Enjoy the tailgates and pray the Sabres are not too far away Quote

WildCard Posted May 17, 2016 Report Posted May 17, 2016 The defense will rebound. TT in a contract year and year 2 will flourish. Sammy won't even miss the first game. Shaq may miss the first 2-3 games, but we still have Ragland, and year 2 Darby. We will be fine Okay, so maybe a little more than 2-3 games @AdamSchefter Shaq Lawson was making swim move on tackling dummy in non-contact drill when he aggravated shoulder injury that will sideline him 5-6 months Quote

He's going to be on that PUP list that permits him to come back once the season if half over. Quote

In 2 years I'm going to take the Bills playoffs drought out on a date. No, no I'm not. I'll just never understand the sky is falling no matter what attitude. I'm pretty sure we could draft the next Andrew Luck, hire the next Bill Polian as GM and next Belichick as coach, and a bunch of people would walk around saying it doesn't matter because he'll just blow out an ACL in minicamp, the GM will die in a plane crash, and the coach will be indicted on felony kidnapping. I honestly don't know how you have optimism about this team. I know you're like the same age as me. They've been bad basically our whole lives. Yup. Doesn't mean they'll continue to be bad, and I'm not going to hold 15 years ago against a different coach, GM, and owner. Maybe they'll suck, but they won't suck because they sucked a decade ago.

You people:Bills as Qwk:GoT. Except that (i) Team Stormcloud (Bills Edition) has objectively valid reasons for pessimism while Qwk does not and (ii) recent posts by Qwk have demonstrated a warped view of reality not present in TSBE's trenchant analyses of the Bills.

Speaking only for myself, my pessimism about the Bills is not due to fear of misfortune, but a strong suspicion that there are incompetents running the organization. As for the 2nd bolded part: the team president has been here since 1997; the GM since 2010. They have collectively been part and parcel of Micky Mouse suckitude for most of the lost generation. Quote

Maybe they'll suck, but they won't suck because they sucked a decade ago. This is true. But where you may or may not have hope that they can be good. I just don't think they are. It's really as simple as that. I don't think they are any good. Quote

Brawndo Posted May 17, 2016 Report Posted May 17, 2016 Report after Lawson's Surgery he will likely miss 4-5 games Quote
That Aud Smell Posted May 17, 2016 Author Report Posted May 17, 2016 Report after Lawson's Surgery he will likely miss 4-5 games It's a function of the PUP, too, yes? Quote

Maybe they'll suck, but they won't suck because they sucked a decade ago. Like Kelly, Polian, and Marv? Nah. We know how that worked out. That's what we're all waiting for. Quote
K-9 Posted May 17, 2016 Report Posted May 17, 2016 It's a function of the PUP, too, yes? Yes. Which is why their decision on how to designate him is important. If he is PUP after the preseason, he must miss a mandatory six games. There's a good chance they will carry him on the active roster depending on how the IR is shaking out at that point. GO BILLS!!!

That Aud Smell Posted May 18, 2016 Author Report Posted May 18, 2016 Ah, yes - right. The preseason - v - regular season PUP. So, the hope is that Lawson goes on the preseason version? I thought they got rid of that stupid rule. Or maybe not? Can you carry a preseason PUP on your active roster even if the player's not been medically cleared? Quote
Brawndo Posted May 18, 2016 Report Posted May 18, 2016 Archer the kick returner claimed off waivers last week has been placed on the Did Not Report List as he has not shown up for his physical after being claimed by the Bills. http://www.wkbw.com/sports/bills/archer-placed-on-did-not-report-list-by-bills Quote

inkman Posted May 22, 2016 Report Posted May 22, 2016 Gilmore's not going to report to OTA's until they re-negotitate his contract. Smooooooo, he's still under contract, right? Sooooo, like 50% of the high profile players in the league use this tactic as leverage, right? Quote
K-9 Posted May 22, 2016 Report Posted May 22, 2016 I'll be worried when Gilmore doesn't report for mandatory team activities. GO BILLS!!! Quote
