saundena

I noticed this too. I know pre season isn't exactly an indicator of regular season performance, but we looked shakey then and continued to look as such last night...

So true. . . There was good and bad tonight, but until we stop playing scared (why the F*$K did we go exclusively to the prevent in the end FEWELL), we wont make the playoffs. Jauron needs to Kick Fewell in the ass

I'm going to try and stay composed, even though my blood pressure is sky hight and I'm seeing red. The good news is that Jauron had this team ready to play. Maybe something finally clicked with him. If McKelvin dosen't fumble, chances are much greater that the Bills win this game First the Bad (Besides Leodis): Injuries to Kelsay and Poz- Not good Soft underneath pass D- Why do we always give up the under pass. We had decent pressure on Brady, but come on. We let them march down the field too many times. Someone needs to have a serious hear to heart with Fewell Clock Management- Wasted too much time in deciding if we should take the time out. . . before we finall took the time out. Long Passes- Not enough. Lee Evans- Where where you? You alwasy seem to go aaway in big games. The good: Trent- Looked sharp, unfearled his arm a but more often as the game progressed The O line- I can't want to see what this unit looks like in 3 weeks. Freddy- Tight Ends- Who misses Royal? Offensive play calling- For the most part (considering EVERYTHING that has happened in the past 10 days) trent and AVP did well. I liked the screens! Shoebel- Pretty good game Considering all of the changes hese bast few days, AND the fact that we missed Kelsay and Poz for much of the game, I think we did OK. If McKelvin would have just gone down, chances are pretty good that we beat NE on the road. These losses are just so crushing though. . .

You forget, Gruden took a Tampa team that could never put it all together-- and won a SB with them. The Iggles dominated TB in the NFC playoffs before "Chucky"

My thoughts exactly. If we are going to be doomed to another crappy season, I hope it's so bad that heads role. I think then Ralph would finally hire a decent HC-- or else face an angry mob weilding torches and pitchforks. The Bills need a tough, bluecollar coach. My order of preference would be: 1. Gruden- Like his attitude and his offensive prowess. He's a tough coach who gets the most out of his players 2. Marty- Proven winner who just happens to have no luck in the post season. He would acually be my number 1 pick, but he's getting up there in years. 3. Shanny- Would be a great pick, I just think a Jon Gruden team would be mentally tougher. 4. Cowher- Probably the most blue collar of the 4 mentioned here. Would build a team that is tough in the trenches and one that can win when the weather goes bad. Suffered through some below average seasons in P-burg. Note: I'm not a big Holmgren fan. Never liked him very much. I think if he were to come to Buffalo he might net us a few more wins/year (he wouldnt lose us games like Jauron)- but I don't think he's nearly as capable as any of the 4 I liste above. I will cautiously say that I "like" Fewell. Statistically, our D is middle of the road. I think with a good pass rush, our D scheme could be sucessfull. Thoughts, criticisms.... Fire away

Do you think it's possible that if NE blows us out of the water (something like 55-3) on national TV and we go on to start the season 0-3, that we could get a new coach by week 4 (coincidently just in time for Lynch's return)? This is going to be a terrible year. I think the Bills FINALLY take the next step when we clean house and bring in a new coaching staff. Edwards played very poorly, but I can't help to wonder if he would do any better if we had Shanahan, Gruden or someone like that.

I think we need a new #1 QB...

6/6 61 yds..... damn you fewell

You sir.... are a genius. I would vote for you if you ran for office

Hmmm. I suppose it's possible. I'd like to think that a Yale guy- a smart guy like that, actually has the wits and gumption to carry out that plan. It's not as if the O line wouldn't be getting any practice either- the O just would not be focused on attacking the 3-4. With that being said, there are still no excuses for the INTs and the sacks. . . . HOWEVER, I think I read earlier on the board that the Pats will primarily be using the 4-3 this year. Can anyone shed light on that?

I'm worried about TO's toe. Our offense is going to rely heavily on him, especially during the first part of the season- until guys like Hardy and Stevie J can get up to speed. Does anyone else share my concern, or, am I being all Nervous Nancy for no reason. On a seperate note, I'm looking forward to watching the Vikings out-of-shape old man of a QB self destruct tonight. Brett, I'm rooting for you to fail, and that is totally unlike me, so thank you for making me feel like a d-bag.

You are 100% correct. Greenday was SOOOOO great to see live and they treat their fans very well. Even after all of these years, it really seems like they love what they are doing, and truly appreciate their fans. On a funny note... they brought this kid (maybe 8 years old) up on the stage between two of their songs. As Billy Joe was talking to him he noticed that his parents had put ear plugs in- so Billy laughs and says, "KID.... Get these out of your F****n ears" and throws them into the crowd. This was probably the best concert that I've ever been to.

I was at a Greenday concert in Houston last night. It was a GREAT show. They were on for over 2 1/2 hours and played a great selection of old and new. About an hour and a half into the concert, they started playing partial covers from other artists: Ozzy, Van Halen, Tom Petty- just to name a few. One of the songs they played for a few minutes was Shout. It was awesome. For 2 minutes I felt like I was back at a RWS, and that our Bills had just scored the game winning TD. I've met a few Bills fans since I moved down here, so I'm sure that I wasn't the only one who was singing "lets go Buffalo" during that part of the song last night! Go Bills, stay HEALTHY tonight!

Hey, just moved from Olean to Houston, TX? Does anyone know if there are Bills Backers bars here in H-town, and if so, which ones?

Thats true. Howevever, he could still make a lot of money (and get a lot of national attention) by purchasing an NFL team. Like I said earlier, imagine if he championed a Bills TV reality show. Also, you know that Trump would be on camera several times during each game- he and his hair would love that.... And if they ever made the superbowl, forget it! The national exposure would be insane. Whoever buys them, lets just hope they have the BUFFALO Bills long term interests in mind!

Ha- I think you could probably include Jauron, Schonert and Fewell to that list too. . . . I wonder if Trump does end up buying the team, if he would make a football reality show out of the season/off season. Although it might not necessarly good for on the field performance, but it would certainly make the team money. And hey, if TO can do it, the Donald definately can!

I still have a feeling that it could be Donald Trump. Kelly and Trump go way back, the Donald has the means and is reported to be a Buffalo Bills fan.

didn't Detroit start 4-0 and eventually 6-2 with kitna assuring fans that the lions would make the playoffs. I think this was only a year or two ago. I remember they blew it, but not sure if they finished last.

It is true what you are saying about Turk (this week and for the past few weeks) but I'd still like to see him have more time. Even if the Bill's were not playing against great defenses weeks 1-4, His play calling was imaginative. Do you remember how good the Bill's first string offense looked against the Steelers first string offense during preseason? I seriously believe that their offensive woe's can all be traced back to their fat, overpaid O line. They disgust me. I don't know how they can call themselves professional athletes considering how they perform. They upset me even more than Fewell's inability to change up his scheme. What a waste of a great start.

I'm so empty right now. This is my first post (long time reader) and after todays abortion of a game, I felt that I needed to sign up to vent. The question is, do any of you think that Ralphy will shake things up and fire any of the coaches? If it was me, I'd keep Turk. It's not hs fault that the O line sucks. I'd fire Fewell and Jauron too, if the Bills miss the playoffs. I think the Bills will be lucky to win 2 more games.
