  1. The Browns/Ravens had been awful for about a decade. Billick took over and they were superbowl champions in just two years, perenial playoff contenders thereafter. I'm not understanding why this would be a bad idea.
  2. Interesting fact, the last time the Bills beat the Colts: Date - 1/2/2000, Final score - 31-6. Exactly 10 years and 1 day ago and the same total number of points (we had one less, they had one more). Just thought I'd throw that out there for anyone who was interested.
  3. Is there really anyone coming out in the draft that we are really big on? Would it really make that big of a difference whether we have a number 7 or 11 pick? I really believe that if we are serious about getting a big name coach a guy like Bill cowher would rather see us play hard till the end and not just lose a game just because we want to move up a few spots in the draft.
  4. Anyone see Brady crying just now? He was barely pushed down by a defender and then gets back up all pissed about it. What a tool.
  5. They've basically looked bad since the Saints game. They have been exposed ever since their first 4 or 5 games were against softer opponents.
  6. I don't know, could be nothing but then again the last time I remember there being this much buzz over a Bills press conference we signed TO so who knows.
  7. Dare I say it, with a better offensive line and maybe someone who can mentor him I still think Edwards has potential to be a franchise QB (of course I guess you could say that about a lot of QBs).
  8. Brady and Big Ben is splitting hairs but I still say Roethlisberger should have gone in ahead of him. But the fact that he got in over Schaub is a travesty. While it is not surprising that the NFL's love child got in it still sucks. And while Rivers got in he should have gone in ahead of Brady, but again, not surprising that Brady got in over him either.
  9. Two words: Tommy Maddox
  10. I would have thought the same thing but you don't interveiew with a team for 7 hours unless you are seriously considering them. Oh well, guess it was too good to be true.
  11. Nothing for Christmas but I bought a house a couple of months ago and my parents got me a Buffalo Bills comforter as a house-warming gift
  12. The rule used to apply in the divisional round. For example, in the 89 playoffs, Buffalo was the 2 seed and played the Houston Oilers who were the 5th seed (who beat 4th seed Cleveland in the wildcard). We played them instead of 3 seed Seattle because the #1 seed was Cincinnati and they were in the same division as Houston. However, it hasn't been this way since they went to the 6 playoff team per conference format (hence the Giants playing the Eagles in the divisional round last year.)
  13. Campbell is terrible. Just another Rob Johnson or Kyle Boller who has a good strong arm but nothing else. Sorry, but no thanks.
  14. There's really no one in the draft behind Suh who I really think is a sure-fire pick. I really don't think there's going to be much of a difference between having the 6th or 11th pick. However, I do want to show the big name coaches that we are willing to play hard till the end. I just think a Billick or Shannahan would rather see that then see a team lose out for a higher draft pick. It already sounds like Shannahan is going to Washington. Plus I'm really tired of losing to NE. We need to end this losing streak against them.
  15. Just a thought, with our 11th pick last year perhaps we didn't think Crabtree would fall that far but if we would have had the 10th pick over the 9ers since Crabtree fell to that spot is it possible that we would have picked him up? I know we had other needs seeing as signing TO was suppose to fix our WR problems but that was only suppose to be for one season. I guess the other question would be would having him have helped us? He could end up being a big-time receiver or he could be a bust so I guess we'll never know what his impact would have been. Just speculating.
  16. At any time Brady could go off and have a a huge game. That being said, if he doesn't have a game like that against us, and the Pats play us like they did the Panthers, I think we stand a chance. It really is frutstrating losing to a division rival 12 straight times (I get that NE has been great this decade but even the Dolphins and Jets have found ways to beat them from time to time.)
  17. I'm very new to this board so I don't know anybody that well, but still, glad to hear everything went well Lori. And I'm very sorry for your lost Scribo. All are in my thoughts and prayers. God bless!
  18. Did we just stop them on 3rd and long?
  19. I don't know, I think he's done his best to adjust when they blitz (screen passes to Freddy, etc) but there comes a point where the o-line needs to hold up better.
  20. I like how Fitzy has looked tonight. I think his only problems have been when the o-line has let him down but he needs to learn how to slide when he runs or he'll get killed.
  21. we are fortunate to only be down by 3 but hey you create your own luck
  22. Wow, lucky he missed the throw
  23. WTF? That pass was no where near the line of scrimmage? Are they all blind?
  24. Funny thing is on that play where Gruden and Jaws cried about Welker not getting the hold call Hargrove went right up the middle and was about to flatten Brady but Koppen and Mankins blatantly held him. Ofcourse they don't even mention anything about that. ESPN gushes over the Pats so much it's just sickening.
