    Shaw did not play bad and made a really nice play on a screen.

    Bailey is a huge liability in coverage for an outside backer. Especially on play action. He got completely torched in the preseason on a deep pass to a TE.

    Shaw tackles well enough to be passable in the middle and he runs well enough to make up for slow reads.

    We will likely need two off that list. Curran would not be a bad choice as one of them. A lot of those guys will probably not be able to pass the physical. There are a lot of old dogs and broken down bodies on that list. Curran would at least fill a special teams void.

    Really low class people there apparently. I would not want to eat at a restaurant in that town wearing Pats gear. Almost guaranteed to have some bodily fluids in your food.

    It's football not war.

    A lot of bitter people there. A lot to be bitter about living there and cheering for that team. I go to see the Titans play there and wear a Bills hat when I do. Call me a sellout or chicken if you want. If you have ever seen what the place is like then you would understand. I don't need to get peed on.

    BTW -- Going neutral is not an option either. If they see you wearing no NFL gear they automatically assume you are cheering for the other team and trying to hide it.

    I always assume fans wearing no gear are home crowd fans.

    And I can understand why someone would opted out of rocking their gear to away stadiums. I go to games decked out in Titans stuff, and I've had peanuts thrown at me in Philly cause the Titans were winning, and I'm a pretty civil fan in public so they really had no reason for it other than they were losing and were mad about that.

    I also could see Bills fan actually peeing on someone, those fans are so so so annoying. They smell, their team is trash, and quite frankly their voices all sound like there's some traces of animal DNA inside them.

    Part of our problem at linebacker is that we have no viable late cuts that we can bring back. If we were a little thin on the D-line we could have called up a guy like Sheppard but Malast was our last linebacker cut and he was placed on the practice squad. He is honestly not the answer.

    Omar Gaither would be worth a call. 28 years old he was a starter for a couple of years for the Eagles and plays special teams.

    Gaither does look like one of the better bets on that list. Also, in Philly, he played in a defence not too different than what we have. Should not be a major adjustment.

    I am telling you. As long as you fit in a Bills game is an experience. Some of the best people watching there is.
