Questions and Concerns

I am just an avid fan -- and I really appreciate the others on this board who know much more (and can see/analyze more) than I can when watching a game.  I have a few random questions and concerns that I appreciate your guys' thoughts on:

(1)  I did not see Kelsey make one play.   Did I miss it?  Maybe when Schobel gets back, we put Denney on the other side.  I guess Ellis is just a complete dud since he sees virtually no action even when there is a shortage of DEs.
(2)  Is Stroud fading each week?  He really shined in the first few weeks and now seem very ordinary.  Is he missing Schobel that badly?  Johnson also seems to have lost his energy when he comes in. 
(3)  Schobel really is missed -- I guess he really is the only Pro Bowler on the defense (I never thought I would say this because I thought he was overrated).
(4)  Poz seems to be blocked easily.  He now can't shed a tackle and they go right at him.  Is this something the offenses are figuring out?

(5)  Where are the blitzes?  Veek or Scott seem to be very effective, but against an 'ol Farve and an ('ol Pennington; also, an 'ol Warner), I didn't think they blitzed much at all -- and oddly the short passes still worked wonders for them.  Poz seemed like a poor blitzer, and Veek performs better when he is asked to do special things and not just stay back. 
(6)  Whitner just seems a bit lost -- does he have too many responsibilities he is shouldering (no pun intended)?

(7)  Should the Bills just cut McIntyre?

(8)  Why don't we do any reverses with Parrish?  I would think he would be the one guy in the league who is ideal for that (especially since he appears to be a below average receiver).

(9)  We need to go long on offense a few times -- isn't that what gives opportunities for the short passes?  Did the Jets basically cheat-up the safeties because we have fallen in love with the short-accurate passes of Edwards?  Even our "long" runs (did we have any?) were fairly short because of this.
