Alcoholism is a demon that stalks you but he is an ex player, with a mega successful son who has the means to at the very least mitigate, if not cure his addiction. Where the hell is the family? He's lucky he didn't kill somebody.

The Most Embarrassing Day in Bills’ History
Livinginthepast replied to st pete gogolak's topic in The Stadium Wall
SB vs Dallas in 1993 was an embarrassing loss for sure and the magnitude of the game probably puts it as the most devastating! To me though the most embarrassed and angry that I have felt in my 45 years of fandom was the 56-10 Jauron loss on Sunday night football vs the Pats where the Bills just put their asses up and took it and Belichick just kept going for 2! Back to the SB game. I was feeling very confident in the Bills chances. I thought for sure the Cowboys would be a better opponent than SF. The resulting pounding was shocking to me. Sure the Cowboys were talented but on that day they were way better prepared than the Bills who as soon as things got tough just crumbled. Levy was a good coach and was an old school "win one for the gipper" inspiring speech motivator but compared to JJ on Dallas and his preparation he was obsolete. The game itself was such a trainwreck of gaffes and bad luck. Had the Bills even avoided 2 of the turnovers they could have hung with Dallas until they found their feet. But the opposite happened. The Kelly fumble throw into the arms of the Dallas player for a TD was just crushing but the subsequent one in the endzone in the 2nd quarter was devastating. Even when Reich came in, I thought they had a chance but the incredible gaffes never stopped. Fumble after fumble and terrible INTs. The Bills didn't just get beaten they humiliated themselves! -
The Ravens tried this on Sunday and it failed miserably. The Ravens were stupid dirty trying this with Mahomes. I haven't seen a head slap on QB like that since my childhood. Maybe Lyle Alzado? Mahomes still beat them. Hockey is about the only sport Ive seen this style or finishing your hit used successfully to throw a player off. Football you just dont get the chances to do it. Look at Brady 20 years of barely getting caressed by rushers.

Bobby Babich Staying, Promoted to DC!

Thats the big elephant in the room for both! -
Campbell put in them in the position to win last night but also made some blunders that made their loss not just possible but eventually inevitable. In the end I think its a wash for both. The reason Detroit lost is that in the crucial moments the players themselves didnt make the plays: 1. The Killer fumble 2. The db not intercepting the deep overthrow to Samuel but assisting him to catch it (Cam Lewis/Justin Jefferson style) instead of knocking it down. 3. Goff misfiring on a few throws where it looked like it slips out of his hands and the receiver was open. 4. Dropped passes that were well thrown in the receivers hands (one on 4th down). 5. An easy dropped INT that might have been a pick 6? 6. At least 3 whiffed sacks on Purdy where he ran for huge gains Thats just what I can remember. They are a young team and obviously in those situations the pressure just ate them up.

Joe Brady Officially Promoted as Bills OC!
Livinginthepast replied to K D's topic in The Stadium Wall
I dont mind the hire and I think he earned it. I have high hopes that once he installs his offense that things will be much better next year. He had to make do with Dorseys vanilla crap fest. So he was limited. One thing that was obviously better was his decision making. Only the last 2 mins of the KC game did things not work out but for the most part in his stint he did well. I only hope that he brings back some sophistication to our offense like we had with Daboll and gets some people in motion and misdirection that we completely lacked with Dorsey.
