  1. The announcers who did the national television broadcast called it a classy move. What more do you want. It would have been a dumb move to run and fumble and create a chance - no matter how remote - for a browns score onside kick and second score like the lions did yesterday.
  2. Hey if a journeyman type wr like George Wilson can be turned into a solid starter at safety anything is possible.
  3. Jim kelly's first coach. Another one in the L column.
  4. Um. The fourth down TD when we just needed a field goal to get back in the game?
  5. In his last year in buffalo in 2009 he had one at most two players worth more than 5th rounder in trade value before a rash of injuries hit forcing the likes of chris draft into the lineup straight from the couch. The offense could not get a first down. Somehow, Perry's D ranked in the middle teens. I recall one journalist in the '10 offseason called it one of the great mysteries in the history of sports.
  6. Funny how Bruce Smith was constantly double teamed and triple teamed, the preeminent source of concern (and often trepidation) for the opposing QB and coordinator the whole game, played in 3/4, and somehow managed to put up mind boggling numbers in terms of sacks and tackles for nearly the entire first fifteen years of his career. There was a guest on NFL radio recently who runs an NFL statistics website who could not stop raving about how Bruce's cold hard statistics were off the charts in every category (e.g. 3X tackles/game than the average end. etc.) and that Bruce is the gold standard of defensive ends in terms of statistics standing alone without reference to "reputation" or "aura" (he went on to say that Bruce's stats blow away Reggie White's). Not a knock on Mario Williams, clearly a pro bowl plus caliber player. Just saying Bruce was a once in a lifetime player. There is a difference. It will be very tough for Mario for a long time, since Buffalo fans will naturally be comparing him to an incomparable talent.
  7. Their countless films about "how they made the films" were pioneering in their own right in world of recycled copy -- and almost as irresistible as the original films.
  8. Sympathies for Ed who just turned 96. The worst thing imaginable to lose a child no matter what age. Its pretty much impossible to keep clicking when the channel scan lands on one of their films.
  9. I stil think we should have re-signed Bell. We could have used the Glenn pick to get a James Hardy caliber receiver.
  10. Choice liking like an nfl running back is the third most pleasant surprise of the young season.
  11. Wind can hurt the passing game. Bad footing is often a bonanza for the passing game since wideouts are often wide open and there is no traction for a pass rush.
  12. I haven't seen the replay on kyle's second half sack but I'm fairly certain I saw him put the guard on his back and then stomp over him to the qb.
  13. Really, even if Mario still has no pressures and no sacks after 4 games and ten sits out with a minor injury.
  14. He will be 1-10 over his last 11 if he does not win tomorrow. That pretty much spells out his contract status.
  15. I have to agree. A classic Biffalo establishment. Near where JP lived. You can show your wife why JP thought the city was so cool.
  16. I can't believe we were once in the playoffs.
  17. Blowout garbage yards aside he does seem to be hitting holes a lot faster rather than waiting behind the line of scrimmage or trying to run wide as in the past.. In quarter 1, I was sure that it was Freddie who took the handoff when it was on fact spiller. It took him a while but he seems to have learned a great deal about nfl running from Freddie.
  18. At the very least Chan coulld concoct a package for T jackson that could win a few games before the whole league figures it out and makes them look silly for trying.
  19. Great wingspan range too. But with fitz being so accurate who needs it.
  20. Better than I expected. We need Fred to take carries from spiller so we don't have to pay for a 1400 yd/yr back.
  21. We all understand that spiller has become a better back. But we needed a healthy Freddie to limit spillers stats. Do you want to pay for a 900 yd/yr back or a 1400yd/yr back when spiller's contract is up. When was the last time you saw the pats pay for a 1000yd/yr back.
  22. Watching rg3 have a better performance in his first game ever than any bills qb in a decade. Including a game clinching completion in traffic. On the road against the saints was what stung the most today.
  23. Our stadium should be the cheapest around to do a great upgrade - the reason is that per its unique design the middle height of the stadium is at ground level - you could build a Walden Galleria of amenities on the ground right next to the stadium if you wanted to accessible to everyone.
  24. Traffic on this site seems down in the whole. Is another message board taking over?
  25. The adjustment for the second jets game was pleasing. But chan and fitz had no answer for most of last year.
