Die Hard Bills Fan

Hello Bills fans. The team announced today that running back Anthony Thomas, linebacker Coy Wire, cornerback Jerametrius Butler and offensive lineman Aaron Merz have been released. With the emergence of Fred Jackson, A-trains days were numbered. He looked old last year and ended the season on injured reserve. Butler was a fill in after what it seemed like our whole secondary got injured. Merz missed all of last season due to shoulder surgery and would have only been a backup going into the 08 season. The one cut that surprised me was Coy Wire. I really liked the way Coy played and he was developing into a great backup linebacker. He was also a special teams demon but it was said that he failed his physical. He was trying to make a comeback after having neck surgery and it looks like he will have a tough time signing with another team. I’m starting to get excited for free agency. It looks like the Bills are trying to clear more cap space by releasing these four players. Lets hope Friday is a good day for this franchise. Go Bills.

Hello Bills fans. Today the Buffalo Bills have put cornerback Jason Webster on injured reserve officially ending his season. Webster broke his forearm in Sunday’s game against Denver. The Bills have also signed linebacker Leon Joe. Joe is known for his special teams play and will likely be Everett’s replacement on that unit. It is crazy how the defense took so many hits so far in the season. Starting linebacker Keith Ellison was injured in the last preseason game. Coy Wire his replacement, sprained his MCL against Denver. John DiGiorgio is likely going to get the start in place of Wire. Hopefully Ellison will be back in a few weeks. Ashton Youboty will take Webster’s spot opposite of Terrence McGee. This is the time for Youboty to shine and show the organization that they made the right move in drafting him last year. He did look good on Sunday when he came in. Lets hope he can keep the Steelers receivers in check. Jim Leonhard will start at free safety with Ko Simpson being injured. Simpson was also placed on injured reserve. I was really upset when he got hurt because he and Donte Whitner made a great safety tandem. They both played well together as rookies last year. Lets hope the guys who are taking the place of our injured players contribute and get us a win against the Steelers. Lets go Buffalo.

Hello Bills fans. Over the last couple of days we have all been through a lot. With Everett’s serious injury and a few others going down, we have made some roster moves. Matt Murphy, who was released before the game on Sunday, was re-signed. The Bills also signed tight end Michael Gaines. Gaines played for Carolina last year. He is a big tight end known for his blocking. The Bills also placed safety Ko Simpson on injured reserve after he fractured his ankle on Sunday. The team also released backup defensive end Eric Powell. That is a surprise move being that we only have three healthy ends and one is primarily a long snapper. Defensive tackle Jason Jefferson has moved over from defensive tackle to play end to spell Aaron Schobel and Chris Kelsay. Look for the Bills to sign a few players tomorrow. They will most likely be picking up a safety and a defensive end. It would not surprise me if they also picked up a linebacker and a cornerback due to both Jason Webster and Coy Wire getting hurt. Webster is most likely out for the year and Wire will most likely miss at least four weeks. I still can’t believe that all of this has happened and we are only going into week two. Lets Go Bills and please pull together and win one this Sunday.

Hello Bills fans. This Sunday the Denver Broncos travel to Ralph Wilson Stadium to take on our Buffalo Bills. This game has many key matchups and here are a few that the Bills need to win in order to take this game.

Travis Henry vs. Bills run defense: Kyle Williams, Larry Tripplett, Aaron Schobel, Chris Kelsay, John McCargo, and Tim Anderson need to come up big in stopping Henry. They have to occupy blockers so Posluszny, Crowell, and Wire can attack the ball carrier. The Broncos have a very good line and are known for their chop blocks. Hopefully McCargo can use his speed and get into the backfield to disrupt some of Henry’s running lanes. Look for Poz to be all over the field in this game. I’m predicting 10 tackles and a forced fumble. I also feel that Crowell and Wire will be all over the field as well.

Lee Evans and Peerless Price vs. Champ Bailey and Dre Bly: I am looking forward to see how well Evans does against arguably the best corner in the league in Champ Bailey.
Lee Evans has the speed to get by Bailey so the Bills should go deep right away to take Bailey out of his game. Peerless Price needs to have a good game against Bly to take away some pressure from Evans. Also look for Josh Reed and Roscoe Parrish to play a big role in the slot. I feel that we can attack Denver either with the long ball or quick routes from our speedy slot receivers. I’m predicting Lee Evans to have 6 catches for 107 yards and one touchdown. Peerless will have 5 catches for 60 yards. Parrish and Reed will combine for over 100 yards with Reed having a touchdown grab. Also look for Reed to have a running play. He has a knack for breaking tackles.

Jay Cutler vs. Bills secondary: We all know that Jay Cutler has a cannon. Some of the passes he made last year were amazing. Terrence McGee, Jason Webster, Donte Whitner and Ko Simpson need to be on their game tomorrow. Denver has a few good wide receivers especially Javon Walker. Look for McGee to be locked in on him all day. I’m predicting an interception from Whitner. I really feel that he will have a great year at the strong safety position. Jabari Greer should get some time as the nickel back.

I feel that those three are the key matchups the Bills need to win in order to get a victory tomorrow. I can’t wait to see Marshawn Lynch and hope that he has a great game. J.P. Losman will be ready to go and lead this team to victory. For all of you fans with the Sunday ticket, The Bills are on channel 704 and in HD on channel 719. My prediction is Bills 27 - Broncos 20.

Hello Bills fans. The Buffalo Bills have listed both defensive end Ryan Denney and linebacker Keith Ellison out for sundays game against Denver. It is not a suprise being that Denney has a broken bone in his foot and Ellison has a high ankle sprain. It will be interesting to see how well Coy Wire does in place of Ellison. Hopefully he plays well and delivers some serious hits. Aaron Schobel and Chris Kelsay will be playing the majority of the game and will not be able to rotate as much with Denney being out. Cant wait for Sunday. Lets Go Buffalo.

The Buffalo Bills dropped a tough one against Atlanta on Friday. Even though they lost the game, there were many positive signs. J.P. Losman had a few nice throws and Marshawn Lynch showed some flashes of his cutting ability. Lee Evans made a fantastic catch on the sidelines for a 36-yard gain. J.P. and Lee continue to develop that chemistry that came on during the second half of last season. Although the Falcons marched down the field on their opening drive, the defense led by Paul Poslusny and Donte Whitner, stuffed Atlanta at the goaline on fourth down. Coy Wire had some serious hits and caused a fumble that landed in the hands of John McCargo. Wire did a terrific job filling in for Angelo Crowell. I guess the switch to linebacker has him pumped. Most of the starters on offense played the entire first half. The play of the night on offense was Trent Edwards hitting Roscoe Parrish for a 10 yard TD. On the defensive side, Anthony Hargove intercepted a pass and took it to the ten-yard line, which led to the TD pass from Edwards. Overall the team played well but I for one cannot wait to see the finished product take the field on September 9th. The major concern I have, as does every other Bills fan is stopping the run this year. I hope McCargo turns out to be the guy that we all thought he would be. Lets go Bills. Can’t wait for the regular season to begin.
