"in synch" is not a real thing... It's what observers of sports talk about, kind of like "momentum" and "who wants it more" and lots of other accumulated BS over the years. A QB and his receivers all have to know what routes are supposed to be run on a given play, and then the receivers have to run those routes. Beyond that, any notion of "getting in synch" is just garbage that sort of sounds good, kind of.

NFL.com: Best TV or Movie QB of All Time?
Fadingpain replied to 26CornerBlitz's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I would go with "Paul Crewe" played by Burt Reynolds, seeing as he was actually a real athlete and football player...1st team all FL state in high school and then scholarship to play HB at Florida State. Jamie Foxx did play some high school ball, including QB, but not on the level Burt Reynolds did and he never played beyond HS. Jamie is more of a musician by nature; he achieved success in that area early in life. -
Need to bring back this running play

I'm always amazed at what huge pussies these giant, strong, monsters in the NFL are. Look at all the Packers standing right on top of the play, as it happens, and they immediately are aware of the severity of it, the nature of the cheap shot, and that Adams needs immediate medical attention. And what does any of them do about it? Nothing, really. I don't mean the chit chat...I mean do something about it!

Just watched video at youtube. One of the more violent hits I've ever seen on a football field. If you want to get rid of that stuff, take off their helmets. That hit doesn't happen if Trevathan has no helmet on. Rugby is a tough, violent sport too, but players don't launch themselves like that b/c if they did, they would hurt themselves as much as the target. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gMsjVL1Eyx8

What is your favourite time to watch Bills football?
Fadingpain replied to BillsFan130's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Primetime during the week. Makes a work day fly by and anticipation builds all day. -
What Bands Would Be Worthy of a SB Half Time Appearance ??
Fadingpain replied to T master's topic in Off the Wall Archives
Spinal Tap. They could do a free-form jazz exploration. -
DC Sean McDermott vs QB Matt Ryan

This is the NFL; past performances have little to do with this Sunday's game. -
Kyle Orton on the Wall of Fame...yes or no?
Fadingpain replied to BringBackFergy's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Is it April 1st? Orton on wall...stupid. -
This made me laugh out loud... Things are improving in Orchard Park when there are no: 1) Open fires 2) Acts of public urination 3) fist fights What a crowd.

I pointed this out in the game day thread. It was mostly way down low behind the Denver bench; a lot of orange. Who they were, I have no idea.

I'm not sure why, but next week's game has the feel of...
Fadingpain replied to Rubes's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
This game is going to be very interesting to watch. Can Tyrod string together 2 good games in a row? Can the D continue outstanding play and limit one of the most potent offenses in the league on their field? If we lose a close one with relatively few points given up and give Atlanta a good fight, the remaining schedule is going to look much easier than first anticipated. -
GDT: MNF Dallas Cowboys at Arizona Cardinals
Fadingpain replied to Fadingpain's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Nice throw for the TD, Palmer! Getting an early jump on the Cowboy kicking. -
I honestly think that, at least in the case of Kelly, he remains so close to the team b/c he is desperately seeking some type of personal redemption. When the Bills win a Superbowl, he will win finally win one too, and get some closure in his life. He may not realize that's what's going on, but I think that's what's going on.

GDT: MNF Dallas Cowboys at Arizona Cardinals
Fadingpain replied to Fadingpain's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
We need bigger US flags on the field before football games these days. I'm not sure 100 yards by 50 yards is big enough. I'm not really a Cardinals fan by any means, but it's always a lot of fun to see the Cowboys lose. So I guess I'm cheering for Cardinals tonight. -
Who will be watching? National Anthem coming up next. Interesting. Entire Cowboy team joining arms, taking a knee, way out on the numbers of the field. Crowd in Arizona BOOING. And now football field sized USA flag is being pulled out over the field and the crowd is cheering.

I personally feel the connection b/w some of our glory year superstars and current teams has been kind of cool. Only in Buffalo or maybe a few other really small markets would something like that even exist. Connecting past Bills families with the current one is a nice idea. I do understand why some current Bills may not like that, and I think Kelly should be more careful about whose toes he steps on. But surely Hughes isn't really trying to go after Jimbo, is he? If he is, that's misguided.

Disagree about the fake punt being categorically "dumb" or inherently a "bad call" from the Denver coaching staff. It was a calculated risk that had a good upside if it worked, and a bad downside if it failed. We got 3 points out of it, but not more, which may have well been part of the Denver thinking when they tried it. It was not so much "bad" by Denver but "Good" by us, being ready for it, playing responsibly, and taking care of business when we should have. Many Bills teams in the last many years would NOT have stopped that play! But this one did! That is really encouraging.

Villanueva Top Selling Jersey Today
Fadingpain replied to dwight in philly's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
Hopefully those in the relevant buying market tell Phil Long and his ****ty Ford products to go suck it when they buy from others in the area. This is the worst thing about Trump; he has given a voice and air of endorsement to bigots, racists, homophobes, misogynists in this country. Some of them hide behind things like "respect for the flag" and other amorphous BS to support their bigotry, racism, etc. Can Mr. Mueller please speed things up? The sooner we get old orange face out of the White House, the sooner this country can try to start cleaning up after his **** storm of a presidency. -
We have #1 ranked Defense!!! [confirmed!]
Fadingpain replied to CanadianFan's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I feel like we might actually have a shot at them this year. I think we can knock that 33 PPG average well down while scoring some points of our own against their terrible defense. It's too bad we don't play them until so late in the year, where the games may not mean much. Imagine if we had them at home in the next week or 2. I'd be pretty pumped for that game and the stadium would be going nuts. -
As I've said many times here, just get rid of all the pre-game BS involving the National Anthem, Honor Guards, giant field-sized US flags, military flyovers and all of it. Let the military spend their marketing dollars on TV commercials instead. Get this **** out of the game of football. It has no place before a football game. At all!
