I think I went 14-1 and lost in the title game, last year. Very frustrating.

Has anyone seen this new "All clear" NFL policy? They claim it's a way to speed up the process of entering the stadium and for safety purposes but it sounds like another way to get people to spend money on their products.

It only sets a limit on the size and type of bag. It has to be smaller and see thru. Its not as if you could sneak stuff in in your purse before anyway since purses and bags where searched through for many years now. And, you can use a regular clear plastic gallon bag so you aren't required to buy the "clear nfl bag". It's more likely a reaction to the Boston Marathon bombing than any other greedy motive.

Inconvenient I realize but if you go to any games, you could always get a male in your group to carry your lipstick and ID.  :lol:

We're going to Green Bay in November...again...to see my Bears play the Packers.

My wife is a Packers fan...and proud Shareholder.  They beat us at both games we went to last year...home and away.

I have a hunch it may be another long game for me...

Steelers' special teams coached by Danny Smith, ex-'skins special teams coach.       

"If you're scoring at home, that's a 109-yard touchdown return, a blocked field goal, one blocked punt and a lost fumbled punt in three games against the Steelers' shaky special teams."

Danny Smith was the Redskins rick eckstein, the team loved him,  but his unit usually sucked

Seriously, Buffalo is about to start an undrafted rookie in the first game of the season.

Maybe we'll start Tebow so that it's a fair matchup :)

Kolb won't be ready for the opener?

Kolb is probably done. A concussion.

Honestly, Tuel probably gives the Bills a better chance, anyways.

They can't run their fast paced offense with that kid. He isn't ready for that. And if they try it the defense will get worn out and it will be a long season. When does Manuel return?

Either Week 1 or 2. I'd hold him out against the Patriots just to have him confident and rested... and hold him out of the curb stomping that's about to come.

Are the Bills considering bringing in QB's for a tryout?

Why not?  The fans will fill the place no matter what since there is absolutely nothing else to do except shovel snow and eat government cheese, and the Bills have already proven beyond a shadow of a doubt that the football gods will never allow them to win a Superbowl.

Wow   ....   I'll have to call my cousin (Bills fan since the Cookie Gilchrist days).    He's probably ready to go Postal.

Yes but maybe Bill's feeling bad for Buffalo. Matt Leinart vs. Tim Tebow - both teams agree to forsake the QB position.

http://deadspin.com/kolbs-possibly-career-ending-concussion-is-the-nfls-1200600624

apparently this could be career ending. I wonder what happens if a higher profile QB goes down like this (remember Jahvid Best never could get cleared to play again even though he found other doctors and was willing to sign waiver)

Sad, I've always liked Kolb for some reason.
