I made a huge breakfast for 8 of my family members with pork belly eggs benedict, home fries, bacon and sausage. Set up an awesome Bloody Mary and mimosa bar. This is going to be tough to maintain...

Get real.

Umm...no. You want your best players out there. This Sammy is a wimp rhetoric is moronic.

City folk just don't get it...

I'm in the same boat. Scrambling now to patch things together. Cameron Artis-Payne may be a good fill-in for a few weeks until Stewart gets back, but this week's march up against that Vikes D will be tough. Lions rookie RB Dwayne Washington also may be worth a stash. Although Theo Riddick has be named the "starter" after Abdullah went down, many believe Washington could take over sooner than expected as he is a better all around back. He'll definitely be getting goalline snaps.

+1 Go Bills!

He can bring his buddy Kubiak. That would be okay with me.

Good DC, not a good HC.

Yeah, even if it's an AC sprain in his throwing shoulder, that's a tough injury for a QB.

I suspect that Bush may be released when JWill is ready to roll, and Lynn will use the duo of Gillislee and Williams to compliment Shady. There is no reason for Bush to be on this roster, IMO. To respond to the OP, I think it will be interesting to watch the offense evolve under Lynn. Seems like folks here are writing him off already because he has never been an OC or called plays before. I don't necessarily think he is under qualified, as he has been an offensive coach in this league for a long time and has worked under some great offensive minds. Let's see the product on the field before we dismiss him. After all, the guy was respected enough around the league to get some HC interviews.

And I thought everyone went crazy on TSW after a loss. Brilliant.

What's with the member berries? I didn't get that. Not their best episode ever, but still one of my favorite shows.

Am I mistaken, or did Duke Williams blow his inside assignment on the Decker touchdown. Watching the replay that seemed to be the case, and Darby's body language certainly seemed to point to that. Darby was okay. Played very well down the stretch, IMO. Showed difficulty locating getting to the ball against Marshall. Gilmore was just terrible. He looked like he didn't even want to be out there. No pass rush didn't help, and finally, Fitz was near perfect in that game.

Farva, what is that place that you like to eat that has the s@&t all over the walls?

This. If TT is benched for performance that means the season is a complete wash. Why wouldn't they then see what they have in Cardale? They already have a lot of film on EJ....I think he's a known commodity.

I'd bet my middle nut against EJ starting in week 4 unless TT gets injured. No shot.

That charade with EJ was just embarrassing.? If JWill is not healthy I'd rather spend out and throw the ball.

Every time I see Dareus' stupid smiling picture on television when they talk about his suspension I want to puke. We are really missing him right now, and watching Forte scamper up the middle untouched time after time made my blood boil last night. Anyone else fugging pissed at Dareus? Mr. Moneybags can't put down the hash pipe? What a disgrace.

Gilmore is a good corner who had a bad game. Now Bills fans are calling for him to be suspended? Fine? Okay...I get it. Ridiculous.

It's pretty abysmal around here. Over a decade and a half of frustration and futility. I totally get it, and the seeming lack of discipline and poor game management at times isn't inspiring. I'm not there, as I feel this team is very talented and certainly capable of stringing together wins. I'll stay positive, and take solice in my opinion that we just lost to one of the best overall teams in the NFL. The Jets are very, very good. Very solid defense, and pick your poison on offense. How this team is able to rebound next week against the Cards will be telling. If we are 2-2 going into week 5 the fair weather fans will be cheerfully jumping back on the bandwagon. We'll see. 16 game season...

Oh, Duke Williams is so bad.... <sigh>

Agreed, Band of Brothers is also an excellent series. I may need to re-watch that one as well.

All reports seem to indicate that Sammy will be playing tonight. Was evaluated, no structural damage to his foot, and it was reported that he will just have to "play through the pain." Perhaps this thread title has become a little misleading?

I've been out of commission the past couple days with pneumonia, so I have been re-watching The Pacific on HBO OnDemand. WW-II mini-series produced by Spielberg and Tom Hanks about the marines' battles in the pacific. Brilliant, gripping stuff. Highly recommended for anyone who hasn't seen it. Yes, I believe it is.

Ha! You're on fire, Tom!
