waaahhhhhh...Cant believe he is crying about dirty..
-
Hey dat dont tate like chicken!!!!!
-
that pass should have either not been thrown or thrown further away from the defender imo
Thats what I though about Troy Aikman when he through the ball right at JD WIlliams in Super Bowl 27 only to have his great wr Michael Irvin rip it away for a touchdown...Qb's put the ball out there for there wr's to make plays..
-
This is so refreshing..we went from arguing about qb's and wins and losses to if a pass interference was legit or not..Sweet....By the way I saw the pass interference too..

Actually, it was noted by one poster, that the tide turned just as the rain stopped.
Of course, I doubt it was weather related. Watching on TV you could barely tell it was raining.
I give alot of credit to our offensive woes yesterday to a very good blitz package that the Raiders came up with, that combined with Lechlers amazing display of punting the ball put us in bad field position all day till we drove 96 yards..No excuses but there arent many teams that can drive the ball 96 yards 5 times a year let alone that many in one game..Cudos to Lechler that was one of the finest displays of punting I have ever seen in person..
Edit: We had 2 drive starts inside the 5 and 5 inside the 20

Im shocked that not one person blamed his bad first 3 quarters on the mist that was falling..He just doesnt get it done if it aint sunny..LOL...

I agree...it was painful watching that non play not happen. I was yelling at the screen for them to snap the ball. I guess the right call prevailed.
But what's up with that clear Evans reception that was ruled an INT despite replay? Ridiculous.
I think it was the correct call..They both had possesion and he won the fight for the ball..Evans shoulda fought harder....
Spot on. Turk should have been screaming to Trent to get up to the line and call a quick off-tackle run. Heck, even a QB sneak would have been fine.This is been a disturbing trend with Jauron & his staff. He's gotta know that it's a controversial call that they were able to benefit from.
Trent was on the sideline tallking to Turk when the ref was explaining the call to Kiffin before the first delay..By the time trent got back and was ready it was too late..Trent shouldnt have been over to the sideline..Maybe he was called over by the coaching staff..We will never know so the fault is gonna be hard to pin it on anyone in particular other than to say the Bills screwed up a gift..Luckily it didnt matter we got the first down anyway...
-
Its been a long time coming..But the sunset is finally here..The Pats are showing signs of being an old team the Colts are looking more and more like the 1994 version of our Buffalo Bills....It looks like the Broncos and the Bills are returning to their past selves.....Its gonna be a fun ride and the ride just started....HEREs to a fun 5 yrs coming up!!!!
-
That eliminates Randy Moss then.
I guess we will just disagree, on Evans, then. BTW, there have been plenty of great smaller WRs, IMO. Marvin Harrison is fantastic...no? 2" taller but 15 pounds lighter than Evans.
LOL..Thats why he wasnt included..That and he is a quitter....On a side note did you see the hit poz put on bush in the 3rd qtr..OMG..Our seats were 17 rows up and i heard the pop of the pads even through the crowd...

I would argue that Reed (like Evans) was a great WR when he hit the NFL. They both played in bad offenses, though, and that limited their contribution. Evans does everything a great WR does...he just hasn't had as many opportunities as the others you mention. WR's can't get the ball to themselves. They have to be evaluated in the context of the offense.
I think Evans is a above average player with the potential to be a great player when its all said and done..He doesnt have the size of what most people would classify as a great reciever..I mean in the context of a Irvin, Reed, Rice, T.O..The number of great receivers on the smaller side is not in as great in numbers..The great receivers have tended to be able to catch the ball over the middle down the seam and deep..Which is why your so called great receivers tend to be larger..It doesnt mean he cant put up big numbers but great receivers dont get outmuscled for footballs..Those are the kind of mistakes he will need to stray from to become a great receiver IMO..Great Receivers tend to be good blockers downfield and show an allaround effort..I just dont see that type of allaround production yet..
-
That comment was in response to this:
"HOw many long bombs to Evans would we have seen within the last two minutes of this game."
The answer is, "I guess it depends on what the OC called, in that time." The QB doesn't call the plays.
I see..Just got back from the game..A little horse....I didnt catch the commment..It was nice to walk out of the Stadium with a smile instead of a frown..I can see things are definatley changing...
-
Dumb post, as usual for you, Moonshocker. Poorly timed and off the mark.
The QB's don't call the plays. When you understand that, come back and post again.
This was a sensational comeback. Celebrate the victory, instead of clumsily dumping on another Bill, for absolutely no reason.
Regardless of the playcalling the Qb still has to make plays....
-
Should've picked Rivers in hindsight, knowing (1) Crowell is done, (2) Youboty and Corner can play.
I agree..Not having Crowell this yr is gonna hurt us at some point this year..And if we have any LB's go down for a serious injury we could be in for a rough time..The one position on defense we are thin at is lb..

Edwards hasn't played better than Favre? Are you kidding me?
So Favre played against a pretty good Patriots D.... Edwards played against TWO top 5 defenses and completed 70% of his passes with a 107.7 QB rating.
I never said he played better than Favre..
-
Top D ?? C'mon..
First off they lost Samuel & Gay & Wilson + Vrabel & Pooski have seen better days..
Statistically, they are actually the # 9 D..far off # 1 who by the way is Baltimore...Buffalo is #5..
http://www.nfl.com/stats/categorystats?tab...mp;d-447263-n=1
Here is the top 10 (total D)
BALTIMORE
TENNESSEE
NY GIANTS
PITTSBURGH
BUFFALO
CHI TOWN
ARIZONA ???
NY JETS
*ATRIOTS
COWBOYS
I am all for Edwards, I think he will be a very good qb for a long time.. But Its 2 games into the season.. But lets see how the stats are mid season before we go gaga all over the place..I remeber a few years ago we were all gaga over Bledsoe after 2 weeks and we missed the playoffs...I will take a Belichek coached defense over most any week of the football season..Ask Kelly, Elway,Warner and Delhomme...

The mess in Miami has now come full circle.
Tedd Ginn really isn't anything more than a deep threat as a WR. Ohio State never had him run short routes unless he had a huge cushion. As a short range "possession" receiver, Ginn sukks - doesn't fight for balls.
Now, given that about Ginn, the decision to go with Pennington has essentially reduced Ginn's value to the Fins to zero, because Pennington just cannot throw a deep ball after his shoulder surgery. Granted, Josh McCown is unproven and clearly not a "savior" as Favre is supposed to be to the Jest. However, McCown is both mobile and strong armed, and having him in there would keep the deep pass to Ginn alive and force opposing safeties to play back, off the LOS, helping to open up the running game. Indeed, if you haven't noticed, the Fins OL is geared towards run blocking as opposed to pass blocking.
Grabbing Pennington and dumping McCown before McCown even had a chance to play has reduced the Fins O to short passes to a really lousy set of "possession" receivers and stacked the box run defense.
Parcells, who drafted Pennington in Round 1 from Marshall, clearly did not think this situation through. Pennington cannot throw a deep ball and that is why the JEST parted with him. Everyone who plays the Fins just has to "cover" the likes of Wilford and Hagan in man and dump everyone else in the box hunting Ricky and Ronnie. It ain't working, even against inferior defenses.
To those of you who thought the Favre deal strengthened two divisional rivals, think again. Favre didn't exactly light up the Pats, and Pennington is a serious liability to the Fins. Neither franchise is developing anyone young either...
Hate to say it, but the best QB in the division right now is... some injury case Third Rounder from Stanford.
I think Favre just played against one of the top if not the top defense in the AFC..The Pats lost Brady but they didnt lose their Defense or Belicheck....Edwards had a pretty good game but he hasnt outplayed Favre yet..I like Edwards alot but does it matter if he is the Best qb in the AFC EAST? Nope..I just care about wins..
-
He cost me my fantasy football game this week..Lost by four..
-
Now if he can only learn to keep his contain, and wrap up his tackles' a little better he will be complete..
-
I will say this..At least they have won a couple of Super Bowls..With that said if Davis was the owner of the Bills they wouldve been long gone...

Still think JP should be the starter. Watching TE's bomb come up short on Evans last week had me seriously bummed.Even if TE progresses rapidly I just don't think he is going to hold up in the NFL. JP may take half or more of the snaps this year. And won't ware gloves in Cleveland.
Sorry to be negative, but that is how I feel. Game 'managers' drive me nuts, because to win with one you must have an exceptional team in all other respects. I think TE is a recipe for 'almost, but no cigar', and a perfect starter/reflection of a mediocrity at head coach.
Show me I'm wrong Trent. And never were a pair of isotomers in snow again...ever...
Well you mustve been really bummed when JP launched a bomb 5 yards past Evans against the Broncos last year, If he connected on that one game over..I know its a week later but I was away and just read this..
-
almost everyone i spoke to after the game said the same thing at some point:
"this isnt a game we win last year"
or for that matter, the previous 5 years.
completely agreed
Ditto
-
I found it funny that the team had done every single thing you've listed last year.
Really.. They got off the field on third downs?..
And the play calling was dynamic and unpredictable???
-
Aye, that it was. Finally.
I waited a long time to reply figuring someone else could have the honors..Its nice watching a Bills offense not panic and make plays in crunch time isnt it...Man its been awhile....The calming effect of a Qb who doesnt seem to panic when it counts..He did the same thing last year against the Skins..We are at the beginning of a journey that looks like it will be a lot of fun...
-
Maybe Trent should have felt the pressure and gotten rid of it or at least stepped-up into the pocket?
lol
I heard Colin Cowherd today say that Trent Edwards
in The Stadium Wall Archives

Not really..He had promise and showed it for 5 games at most..The rest was an exercise in frustration
I remember last year when a few posters were saying I am so sick of hearing about this poise crap..Some were so sick of it they made a joke out of it.."The Chroise"..and others come to mind...I dont think anyones joking about his poise anymore..Granted its only his 12th start but his book has been started...Other QB's havent even found an author yet..
Agreed
