Buffalo Bills news and notes

by Steve
  • Good to see a highly paid former high draft pick bust is motivated.. "All the naysayers and whatever, I want to show them that I am a football player, and I'm an athlete, and I didn't get picked where I did for no reason," McCargo said. "If you want to say I have a chip, sure, I do. But most of it just me. I put the pressure on myself."
Hey, maybe it isn't John McCargo's fault 100% but zero starts and only 2.5 sacks? Holy shit. Honestly though, I am seeing a major problem with former d-coach Bill Kollar. Seemingly everyone has taken a swipe at the dude since he left. The good news for McCargo is he doesn't have much competition behind him (David Linquist and Marcus Smith) who and who? Maybe the Bills were just trying to get over on the Colts and knew full well of his bad back. We can hope.

Whatever, reading that article just makes me hate Jauron even more..

"We all did what we thought was best for everybody last year," Jauron said. "The fact that he reverted back to us turns out to be a very positive thing.

"He's had a great attitude. We've always liked him. Now we're hoping to get out of him what we believe is there.""


  • Drayton "lucky if i'm not cut" Florence wants the Bills to sign dog killer Vick AND wants Bills fans to take up the cause. I vaguely know who Florence is mostly because we gave him a lucrative contract (two years $6 mil). Is he that much better than Youboty, Reggie Corner or Byrd? The next six weeks should clear that up.
This does however bring up a much bigger question than our third, fourth and fifth DBs. Would Michael Vick a.) help the bills b.) be worth the negative press and circus that would ensue and c.) even be a minute possibility? By now we alllll know what Owens thinks about Vick but how about the front office?

Honestly, Vick was an underrated player when he was in his "prime" at least by some. Just look at his winning percentage and a signature win @Lambo. I just can't see the Bills rolling the dice twice in one offseason. He wouldn't start over Trent, he has to be rusty as hell and no one could imagine the Bills brain trust developing an offense to use Vick's talent and keep everyone else involved and happy. Let him back in to the league, they were only dogs, just hope he doesn't go to someone in the AFC East.

  • Aaron Maybin is a one trick pony has no heart and is not competitive. At least according to some anonymous scout."The problem with (Jets OLB) Vernon Gholston is that he never made plays (at Ohio State). He was not tough. He was not competitive. He was stiff — the same as (Bills DE) Aaron Maybin. They are both one-trick ponies who won off the edge against bad competition. They could get away with it in college because the skill level is not very good. At this (NFL) level, one-trick ponies without any heart need to have a special trait to survive — special get-off (speed) or special competitiveness."
Ouuuuuuch. Wow Maybin just got ripped a new one. Put as much credence into that Profootballweekly post as you want but that is not a rosy picture of our first pick in the draft. I'm just hoping the mofo is in camp before the weekend.

  • Jaws sucking off Trent "I think he sees the field with great clarity, he understands reading coverage and knows where to go with the football," Jaworski said. "He understands where his people are supposed to be.""I think he has the skill set that projects very well for this league," he said.

Did he watch the Browns game?
