Been back reading and this is probably the dumbest thing I've seen in 3 days of comments. If Belichick had been here the last 20 years the Bills would have had a lot more success than if Brady would have been here for the last 20 years. Hell, if Brady and Belichick were in Cleveland for 20 years they wouldn't have the same success. Put Peyton or Brees on the Pat's with Bill and they both would have more Superbowls than Brady. Fitzpatrick would probably have a couple Superbowls if he played there for that long. Brady is an above average quarterback that fell into the perfect situation.

2+?=4

If you can solve that equation, you can solve the flaw in the logic of your argument.

so it's the gm and the coach
- homiedclown

Who knows, can you tell me why a player averaged 20 goals a season before he got here and another averaged 17 before he came and all of a sudden they go dry.

no, he really isn't
- homiedclown

So Dreger, Friedman & all the other experts are wrong?

Is your source really telling you that Botts is content with who he’s got?

Bc I’m pretty sure that even you have said multiple times that Botts was trying to trade for a top6 guy & a bottom6 guy

You're turning into the "leave britney alone guy"

He muffed a bunch of opportunities and you're blindly defending him
- jcragcrumple

Just curious, what are a couple of these opportunities he muffed?

Right...
back to Haula & Soderberg > Mojo & Vesey
Got it

Your arguments just don’t hold up when u look at the real life scenarios surrounding these players
- jdfitz77

Haula stinks

I’m tired of reactionary, over dramatic posts

- jdfitz77

Then you should stop posting while drunk at 3am?

I'm not convinced this wasn't the best course of action after we landed him... Especially at this rate.

If we miss the playoffs by a large margin this season and halfway through next are in the same position, you absolutely consider what's best for the franchise...
- U Sir Name

They won’t, because our schedule is really easy in Late jan/feb and the Sabres aren’t actually that bad.

Right...

Fitz, I said 4 times now:

Soderberg instead of Vesey and Miller.

Buyout Sobotka and use that money for Haula.

Never, ever, not even once did I say Soderberg instead of Mojo

Botterill is no hurry to do anything, or can care less what the media says in Buffalo, TSN or Sportsnet.

So Dreger, Friedman & all the other experts are wrong?


- jdfitz77

same guys that said risto was getting moved, right?

That link proved my point. Elite defence wins. If you want to give Brady credit fine, I guess Brees, Manning, and Rodgers’ fault they aren’t handed a top 8 defence every year.
- Pegullaville

It's really easy to win arguments after you've lost them and the other person moved on.

You're literally ignoring the fact that there have been only 2 elite defenses in the last 20 years that got to the Super Bowl and won without a top-10 QB.

The defense isn't the missing piece, the QB is. A defense is a unit of 11. A QB is the literal most important position in the entire (frank)ing sport and you're sitting here screaming into the void about absolutely nothing.

this spring eichel will be the first superstar to not make the playoffs in his first 5 seasons


this team has gone 8 years w/o making the playoffs


this team has not won a playoff series since briere and drury



inexperienced gm's and coaches since darcy and lindy were fired



money is no object yet we get a gm who learns as he goes and a soccer czar to coach the team
- homiedclown

Babcock took less $$ to go to Toronto
Can make ppl come here

Botts was very highly regarded
There’s nothing wrong with hiring the up & comer over retread failures

Is your source really telling you that Botts is content with who he’s got?


- jdfitz77

he is not gonna make a splash


addition by subtraction


kicked the tires on carter, carter did not want to come here


other then that, crickets

You're turning into the "leave britney alone guy"

He muffed a bunch of opportunities and you're blindly defending him
- jcragcrumple

Dude... u bought an E Rod Jersey and think Haula & Soderberg are the answer

Idk what else to say if u won’t listen to reason

Babcock took less $$ to go to Toronto
Can make ppl come here


- jdfitz77

if money is no object


and the highest paid coach gets 5 mil a year


you offer him 10 mil a year


double what the leafs give him



if money is no object

They won’t, because our schedule is really easy in Late jan/feb and the Sabres aren’t actually that bad.
- sbroads24

They aren't actually that good, either.

We will find out.

We saw 1 game without Eichel. If he misses even 5 more games, we are toast.

Botterill is no hurry to do anything, or can care less what the media says in Buffalo, TSN or Sportsnet.
- SABRES 89

risto does look great in a jets uniform though

- adambuffalo

Brady is the best QB of all time cause he wins Super Bowls with top 5 defences while the rest of the elite QB’s go to the dance praying they can field a top 10 defence cause they spend all of their money on the offensive side of the ball.

Andy Dalton would have put up 13 last year and probably would have won in 2003 too.

a new gm and coach is a great place to start
- homiedclown

Yep
Let’s bring in some experienced guys who have a history of failing over & over
Oh, wait...
Maybe that’s not a great idea

Sabres 41 points

Sens 37 points.

Let that sink in
- SABRES 89

Yeah. And the Sens do have a game in hand as well. It’s getting pretty hard to find things to enjoy about this Sabre season.

Dude... u bought an E Rod Jersey and think Haula & Soderberg are the answer

Idk what else to say if u won’t listen to reason
- jdfitz77

Soderberg is on pace for 22+24 at the center position

Haula is on pace for 30+15

Your blind enthusiasm for the GM is clouding your judgement. He (frank)ed up. That's it

Who knows, can you tell me why a player averaged 20 goals a season before he got here and another averaged 17 before he came and all of a sudden they go dry.
- Buff36

bad puck luck and hot backup goalies


or so I have heard for the last 12 seasons

Then you should stop posting while drunk at 3am?

How long till your next ban Beady?

Babcock is a fraud. Congrats for winning gold with Team Canada and riding the two best 200 foot centres of their decade in Datsyuk and Zetterberg to one cup with the best defenceman of all time and one of the best wingers of that decade in Hossa.

The Red Wings should have won 4. Guy got out coached by Bylsma for frank sakes.

Keefe is 12-4 with a roster that was crashing and burning under Babcock

Yep
