  1. the call was fine. we have to remember this is a day where wind blew the ball out on a kickoff. as devils advocate it think we hit a 49 yarder. i didnt mind the call. it was ok. we lost the turnover battle there. naaman had a first down and dropped it either earlier in that series or the series prior. there where a number of things that went into that loss. i have less of an issue with the play call and more with how the ball was thrown. easy td if fitz leads his reciever
  2. the offense is struggling missing 3 recievers and a slightly gimp stevie. our lack of talent here is shortening the field for us. freddy had some good runs, but he was under 3 yards a carry if you discount the 80 yard td. suprisingly even without impact it seems kelsay and merriman do have presence, it was noticed today. what confused me today was that the dl stopped getting their hands up at. this is why we lead in ints, not our backfield or dl. we create our own opportunity, and today we showed that we dont have the talent alone on that side of the ball quite yet. hopefully it is there just not yet developed. the constant use in teh 1st of saftey blitz with wilson was perplexing to me. so far our greatest player in the secondary was basically deemed non-existent because he was busy failing at rushing the qb. for gods sake, send reggie corner or anybody else in a white jersey. this would be a non issue for me, but it was all 1st half long and i didnt get it
  3. most of the 1st half i was getting furious with the amount of saftey blitzes with george wilson. this was really confusing for me. cost us a ton of point in the 1st hal. also the d-line stopped getting their hands up. thats got to be coached. i like gailey, but the things we normally do well where misexecuted this week and it cost us the game. that and both int's where fitzies fault
  4. that namaan td was after the play clock, perspective both ints where on fitz. we are clearly missing our wide recievers this week. we have little option to freddy. i bet it hurts stevies contract negotiations. the injuries on d killed an already dieing defense. i dont understand why we couldnt get our hands up in passing lanes
  5. Jauron did a lot wrong, but the guy new his secondary. he did a great job in philly last year with them. we lead the league in int's as well. i hated him and glad he is gone, but you got to give credit where credit is due. i could make any secondary in the league better. it stops there
  6. its not an ive heard of him response. but instead of trading for anybody with our wr woes, i would much rather approach TO. he is familiar with fitz sign him for the season and never again. just a stop gap guy while we wait for injuries. whats the worst that can happen, he plays poorly, that wont be worse than the 10th guy on the depth chart (that might actually be true). i didnt want him in the off season, and i dont want him next. but both of our situations seem to match perfectly. we are playing good ball right now, and would hate to see us grab an aging non-hofer for a draft pick when we could just simply get one for some relatively cheap cash. ps i hope obd is over the media play with big signings, please no lebron james...haha
  7. i hope this roller coaster takes us to 5-1 at the bye. at the very least we finish the season at .500 end the year 10-6, possibly 12-4, assuming the wheels don't totally fall off after they bye. we do have a tough road streak after the bye. a loss at nyg could nab us at a 9-7 which is also a solid record, but i am hoping for 10. after the last few years. i take our wins we have and hope for .500 for the rest of the year. its just something ive evolved to over the years
  8. i was nervous about this game. i thought it was possible for philly to get their season back. i didnt think they where a dream team but i thought they where a winning team. a 3 game losing streak can be overcome, but 4 is really pretty devastating. with the right bounces possibly a wild card team, especially with the erratic play from the giants and cowboys i thought they could maybe get a wild card. so did i think the bills where better. yes!! did i think that the eagles where going to drop 4 in a row nope. this was a must win for them, and i think by losing in buffalo they blew their season. i root for the bills all week all day and even more on sundays, but sometimes you get worried about some games, this was one.
  9. it will go to the feel good lions or the easy choice aaron rogers. my vote goes to a guy who wont take a single snap this year...peyton manning
  10. link? and while we beat the pats and cinci beat us, is cinci a top 5 team. just putting things into perspective. cinci superbowl maybe?
  11. we have to take the good with the bad with him. we lead the league in turnovers, we lose edwards we may lose those turnovers as well....just saying, something to think about
  12. this first started to make me really mad, it took possibly 6 to finally figure out the sarcasm
  13. my guess is they would have punted, and had zero intentions of going for it. if the eagles hadnt jumped we would have taken the 5yrds and given moorman a little more room to punt
  14. do i agree that we are a great or very good team....no not at all. i still think it is possible we finish 8-8 or 11-5, but when you have a defense that continually is forcing turnovers you are doing something right. i hate seeing teams carve us up, and it will bite us in the ass most likely more than once this year, but a W is a W regardless of how ugly it is. as in racing if you win by an inch you might as well win by a mile because a win is a win. we are 4-1. enjoy it, we are doing ok. yes play calling was skeptical in the 2nd half, i thought it would be a miracle for us to come out with a W in the 3rd, but it happend and we did it. lets love it for atleast an hour before we remember we live in buffalo and our team is the bills.
  15. so how is troup bad? he has had a couple of injuries, and spends all his sunday's backing up a guy who went to the pro bowl. where would terrence be in this defensive line. also we play a hybrid, where does a fat ass like him fit. at his size when he was drafted, and his history of lack of work ethic, it was ok to skip, and troup could still be a solid player in the nfl. we wont know untill kw goes down for significant amounts of time. this is stupid. i know we have missed a bunch of better draft picks, but come on. we cant just go through the draft after the fact and put together the perfect draft. christ we are 3-1, atleast for a few more hours. we are playing pretty solid football, and this is your focus. great, must be miserable being you
  16. THANK YOU!!! this was actually my biggest gripe(other than 99.9% of off pass int). In 2 almost consecutive plays merriman gets punched in the face(literally) and then held in an attempt to sack dalton. Bungles end up punting, our very next passing play pears(i think) gets called for the most tickey tackey hands to the face. Not only did it happen to Merriman, the entire sideline complained, next play all the way back. calls where poor. i didnt realize that fitz played with a splint on his throwing hand either, bad calls, plus half of his super poor passes back to open recievers would have been a win by 2 posessions. end of the day defense has to stop dalton and your offense has to score more points
  17. i saw some unfavorable calls, which went our way the last few weeks. today though i saw his inaccuracy as our biggest flaw. a close 2nd was the defense, nothing in particular, but they did allow the big play at inopportune moments and werent able to make stops at the most imprtant moments. both sides of the ball fed off eachother, but i thought fitz hurt the d more so than the other way around.
  18. ballsy move predicting the entire east loses except for us. pats could lose, doesnt mean they will. phins will lose i think the ravens will punch the jets in the face all day long
  19. dont u mean more like luck/manning? hey indianapolis who did u replace peyton manning with? oh just manning! except this time we did it right, we let him sit behind peyton manning for 4 years. we are set at qb for another decade and a half
  20. yes, but u cant argue the knee jerk raction that comes with being a bills fan
  21. stop this right now...lets talk bills football not fake football this makes me angry side not who cares if he wins that or not?
  22. our schedule is loaded after the bye. it will be interesting to see how we handle a rather rough road trip. the game prior is vs jets, then @dallas, @miami, @jets again. then 2 weeks later @sd. how we get through this stretch will determine the outcome of the season, by far the most difficult. as much as i would like to say teams are easily labeled, so that i can fawn over the bills, the truth is it isnt. i have a feeling the nfc east is relatively average this year, but you never want to underestimate them. Sun 10/2 Cincinnati Bengals at Cincinnati1:00 pm W Sun 10/9 Philadelphia EaglesPhiladelphia 1:00 pm L/W (I think we split these. possible to win through the by but not likely, my guess beat philly lose giants on the road) Sun 10/16 New York Giants at NY Giants 1:00 pm W/L Bye Sun 10/30 Washington RedskinsWashington 4:05 pm W should win after a buy Sun 11/6 New York Jets NY Jets 1:00 pm lets see if the jets bounce back after a tough loss against the raiders Sun 11/13 Dallas Cowboys at Dallas 1:00 pm W i hate them Sun 11/20 Miami Dolphins at Miami 1:00 pm W divisional game should win Sun 11/27 New York Jets at NY Jets 1:00 pm L Sun 12/4 Tennessee TitansTennessee 1:00 pm W, this team will only improve as the season goes on. hasselback has game left in him Sun 12/11 San Diego Chargers at San Diego 4:15 pm L Sun 12/18 Miami DolphinsMiami 1:00 pm W Sat 12/24 Denver BroncosDenver 1:00 pm W Sun 1/1 New England Patriots at New England 1:00 pm L this is my thought. i hope this game doesnt have any serious significance with all that it is possible we lose to giants, eagles cowboys 2 to the jets and to sd. wouldnt be suprised to drop an easy one somewhere either. i think 11-5ish 12-4 if we are lucky, but i have been a bills fan for too long to think they cant loose more than we think. could go 9-7. all in all over .500. chan is coach of the year
  23. u have dick running through your mind?
  24. unsure on this???? kordell stewart picked us as the best team in the afc, power rankings have us 6th, and jemelle hill thought we should have been in the top 5. so if we arent picked as the greatest team in the world in any sport we are being dissed. we seem to be getting alot of credit, and it is almost worrying, because finally with some recognition you would hate to blow it. we keep getting talked about with the lions, and honestly i pick the lions over us as well as far suprise undefeated teams. the oakland win was awesome. turns out kc is god awful, and well a pats win is always a pats win. just saying if i where another team in the nfl, i would be more worried about stafford suh, johnson, van den bosch right now rather than dareus stevie fitzy. we still have something to prove. last few weeks have been awesome, but not totally sold yet. if anybody knows that it should be us
  25. i love the bills and this years team, but leodis sounds like he cant read and the jury is still out as to whether dareus even bothers to open his mouth when he speaks. what you mean is fred stevie and fitzy all speak well, because they are basically the only one who see a podium or a reporter regularly
