What a Tuel

The WR's you named have an average of 5.375 years to Sammy Watkins 1.31 years. The kid hasn't had time to put up the numbers, and he has a righteous complaint to his first year of game planning for him i.e. decoy. Not to mention the WR's you listed have the following as QBs. This sounds like an excuse but it is really reality. Peyton Manning Tony Romo Matt Ryan Matt Stafford Eli Manning Aaron Rodgers Then we get into the "well why did we reach for a WR then?". Well as we saw (or didn't see) the last two weeks, Sammy opens things up for us with or without a good stat line.

From what I understand one owner bought out the other owners. I attribute it to the decline in quality, and changes in attitude about expansion, but what do I know?

Seems to me the Bengals Fans are getting a little too cocky! We probably would be too if we were 5-0 but time for a let down anyway! http://bengalsboard.net/Thread-Buffalo-Bills-Message-Board-Threads

This is exactly their motive. They want you to have to come to them for anything related to the game. The problem with this is that they lack any type of coherent system to find such things, so they are effectively just blacking it all out.

At least for me it's less about what Manuel can do that Tyrod can't and more about thinking Manuel is a suitable replacement to step up. I think he will surprise people this week as long as 2 of 3 of Watkins, Shady, and Williams come back. I also think Tyrod would have looked better if they were back too.

So is there a consensus that he will be out or no? I have read through a few pages, and have seen out for multiple weeks, and we don't know yet....Big difference between the 2

It isn't an excuse for losing, it is a reason for not trashing the team because they aren't performing to expectations. There are valid reasons for not performing to expectations. They are missing a couple of the prime players that made us think they would be ok.

I find it rather annoying, especially when made by people who don't follow the Bills or football. "Oh they lost again? You thought they would win?"

I know this is the negative thread but....we are missing Watkins, McCoy, and Karlos. Before the season the offense is what we were doom and gloom about.. I wonder what expectations would have been if someone told us Watkins, and McCoy would be out at least 2-4 games each?

Sour grapes? Rather than sour grapes, I would say it is keeping a keen eye on the poor officiating. Will people be wrong sometimes? Yeah. But it isn't our jobs to officiate, it is theirs, and they are doing a poor job of it, and we are right to complain. The "everyone gets penalized" argument gets old quick when you stop and think that you are justifying the poor level of officiating which is clearly affecting every game by saying the poor level of officiating happens to everyone. Edit I mean really? The officials are bad but they are bad for everyone so it is ok? What happened to the best team winning?

Thanks for the review. This one convinced me that the Officials were either completely incompetent or on the Giants side for the game. How do you pick up a roughing the passer call when 2 Giant players smash Tyrod? Why don't we get this kind of penalty review?

We don't expect the offense to put 25-30 up, but they were stagnant in the first half with 6 out of 8 drives being 3 and out, counting the 1 play interception drive. Punt Punt Field Goal Interception Punt Punt Punt Punt If somewhere in there we put up a TD at least, it would have been 10-17 Giants going into the 2nd half rather than 3-17. Also 1 of those Giant TDs was a result of an INT from the Offense on the Bills 32 yard line.

Man its close from all the angles he sweeps his left foot out but you cant tell if his toes skim the ground as he swings it forward. The cameras are just too high. I don't think they'd ever overturn it unless they have special angles tucked away somewhere.

Wow, I never minded the Giants but reading their reactions to this whole thing is really off putting. The NYC area has always had a superiority complex going on though.

They care. It is their money, and even if you think it is a lot of money, they aren't going to just happily give it away.

I'm looking at the Game Pass footage, and I don't see that left foot touching the ground at any point there. Maybe this is just an angle thing? Looking at it in slow motion, he kind of sweeps his left foot up and out of bounds, but I don't think it ever touches the ground.

I did the exact same thing but the people I was watching with said no he didn't. Replay came around and I said guess not but the angle wasn't the greatest on the replay.

You act as if you are the only one who can see the big picture of "rex being a sub par coach" and those that disagree should just not read your posts. In fact we are currently the 6th seed in the playoffs. Way too early for that, but man losses crush people. I feel like after every loss people return to the same old bills mentality. It is pretty annoying when this team is something to be excited about for once.

I am curious if he was as vehemently defensive about Robert Woods when he was ejected for punching.

Did any of the bills players get fined for anything?

The worst was 2012. Rough stuff. 2012 @ New England Sunday -----> @ Miami Thursday

They make money hand over fist without doing this. 10% of all bets go to them. Think about that for a second. I don't necessarily think that the companies themselves are doing anything against the rules, the risk is to great for the racket they have going on. I wouldn't put it past employees acting on their own greed with the information and access they have though.

The problem isn't that there are rules, it is that the officials are calling them poorly and inconsistently. You may take "patting your teammate on the helmet and getting a personal foul" as "eh happens", I take it as inconsistent and ineffective officiating by part time officials irrespective of what team I root for.

The Bills secondary did their job Sunday. The NFL when publicly called out for missing stuff will start paying attention. Especially when the public starts paying attention too. While we can't be baited, those players should still be flagged. How come we have to be disciplined to not get flags, but they don't? I also don't necessarily think the punches were a strategic move by Beckham, he was annoyed and frustrated.

I seem to remember a certain Robert Woods being ejected for that kind of pushing and shoving at one point. But its always ok as long as everyone else does it....unless that someone is a Buffalo Bill.
