The decay continues

Colin Cowherd, last week, said if the Bills had a good QB, they'd be in his top 3 to win the Super Bowl.

NFL.Com has them ranked 2nd

If the Bills could somehow play without a quarterback, they would be favorites to represent the AFC in Super Bowl 50. That's right -- I'm saying Rex Ryan's bunch would be the odds-on pick to win the conference crown, based on the ultra-talented roster that is at his disposal heading into 2015. Buffalo returns a defense that features the top front line in football with Dareus, Kyle Williams, Mario Williams and Jerry Hughes wreaking havoc on foes at the point of attack. In addition, the Bills boast a solid secondary with a standout cover corner (Gilmore) and an emerging stud at safety (Aaron Williams). Given Ryan's clever scheming and aggressive mentality, this defense should absolutely terrorize opponents. Offensively, the Bills could sport their most explosive unit since the "K-Gun" overwhelmed opponents in the early 1990s. McCoy becomes the centerpiece of an offense that can win with power (run game) or finesse (aerial attack) under the direction of new coordinator Greg Roman. The young receiving corps features a number of playmakers (Watkins, Harvin and Clay) with the potential to ring up big numbers on the perimeter. If the Bills can get anything from the quarterback position, the interminable playoff drought should come to an end in 2015.

Bleacher report says most talented

You live under a rock. It's a good idea for you to stay there

Same Colin Cowherd relieved by ESPN last week? If ol' Colin thinks that guess all that means is we don't have any Dominicans on the team. I think the Bills will have a fine defense. They had one last year too! Greg Roman couldn't win with a better running back, better receivers and a far superior offensive line. While Kapernick is overrated as a qb he's at least 2.8 light years better than anyone on the Bills roster. And Roman wasn't overseen then by Rex Ryan, destroyer of quarterbacks.

He didn't get relieved by ESPN, ffs.

Colin Cowherd, host of "The Herd" on ESPN Radio, is leaving the network, ESPN announced on Thursday.
"We've enjoyed a mutually beneficial run with Colin for over a decade. He came to national prominence on ESPN with his unique perspective on sports and society," ESPN President John Skipper said in a statement.
"Endings also bring new beginnings, for ESPN and Colin, and we thank him and wish him the best," Skipper said.
A person with knowledge of the negotiations said ESPN "bid aggressively" to keep Cowherd

Who was the better Running back in SF? Frank Gore?? Over McCoy?? Be serious

[grump]

Colin Cowherd was taken off the air by ESPN last week after his comments about Dominicans. As for Frank Gore vs "Shady" their career yards/carry and Yds/game are almost identical except in playoff games where Gore's Yds/game far exceed "Shady". And Gore has done it over an extended career. There must be a reason why the Eagles traded "Shady" for a line backer coming off a serious knee injury....oh yeah, I remember now...the Eagles coach is a racist.

Did you read all that in the National Enquirer?

Colin Cowherd insulted an entire country, saying baseball can’t be too complicated because so many Dominicans are able to play, ESPN announced Cowherd was out at the network.

“Colin Cowherd’s comments over the past two days do not reflect the values of ESPN or our employees,” ESPN said in a statement. “Colin will no longer appear on ESPN.”

Cowherd already had announced plans to leave ESPN and join FOX. Cowherd’s final show on ESPN was scheduled to be next Friday, according to the Sports Business Journal.

“I did not intend to offend anyone w my comments,” Cowherd tweeted Friday. “I realize my choice of words was poor and not reflective of who I am.

[HipKat]

First, he's not wrong. Baseball isn't complicated. He was comparing Baseball to Football.
Second, he already had signed a contract with FOX Sports and had announced he was leaving espn prior to his comments about Dominicans and what he really said was that the Dominican Republic is a poor country where Dominicans don't have the educational advantages as many other countries.
Third, espn used those comments to get rid of him AFTER trying to coax him away from going to FOX.

And I'm sure that a non disclosure agreement is an absolute necessity. Personally, I don't care what he does, no matter how scuzzy it is. I guess the Bills do, they told him to remove the team logo from the invites. It's all spiraling downhill under Whaley and Ryan. Wonder why they call him "Shady"?

these days a non disclosure agreement and a ban on phones/cameras is the smart way to have a party if you're even a little bit rich or famous

[grump]

Did you read all that in the National Enquirer?

Nope. I read ESPN 's press release announcing that they were taking him off the air. As for the comparable statistics I looked them up on a reputable website. As for the racism comment I'm simply passing on what Shady said about his former coach. Just so you know.

[HipKat]

Of COURSE espn is going to say that. They got turned down when he rebuked their contract offer and found a chink to use to save face

[grump]

Is it really true the Bills just signed the guy who busted Geno Smith's jaw? A clown show at the top.

[HipKat]

holy crap, they did. smfh

How's that decay thing?
