Because our coaching staff has such a great record of evaluating talent and putting the best players on the field?

Correct answer: mosquitoes (in Africa or the US)

Does it really matter? Serriously?

Until I see our defensive scheme change, I'll continue to contend that Poz's biggest problem is that he runs away from the line of scrimmage, stands in the middle of the field, waits for the RB or Wr to get the ball, then runs over to help tackle. It's that wonderful Tampa 2 plan. When they let him rush the passer or attack the LOS, he seems to do pretty well most of the time. Problem is, IMO, Poz like most of our players is being utilized all wrong.

I agree. And, for me, that was perhaps the most surprising cut of the year. I could understand dealing away Peters. Agree with or not, he seemed to have crossed a line with the team. Walker, however, seemed to have a decent attitude. OK, so he may not have been enthusiastic about the move to LT, but at least he was out there every day playing the good soldier. So, when they realize he's not their guy, presumably because he was too slow for the No Huddle. But why not just bench him and have a nice safety valve just in case, oh I don't know, you're starting RT goes on IR in week 1 or 2. Sure, maybe you have to slow the offense down so the fat guy can keep up. But, he didn't seem to be a complete train wreck out there last season. I guess it just didn't go the way they would have liked. But, oh well, life sucks.

Alas, its only in the land of make believe that I can invision the Bills being successful.

I thought he was already injured. Hmmm. See I guess I did learn something new out of the PC.

According to the OP, someone you don't know dies. So, it would have to be your future wife, that you haven't met yet, dies in a car crash. I imagine that's the plot twist, they push the button and someone that is seemingly irrelavant is slated to die. But then they realize this person was going to save the would or lead the Bills to the Super Bowl or some other such achievement.

Am I the only one that hears, "It didn't go the way we wanted, but oh well life sucks."?

Says it all. No way you risk giving Manning the ball back with a short field like that. No way.

Damn. Peyton just reaffirmed how great football can be. WOW!

Holy crap! What was Belicheck thinking!!! Talk about some balls. Man I hope Manning makes him pay.

World to end.

I don't get it. What are they doing out there?

Yeah, I half expected they'd score a touch down. But, if you know anything about football, you make them do that. You just have to take that penalty. A head coach in the NFL has to know that. The single worst thing the they could do on that drive is score and our coach gave them the oppurtunity.

Visit the thread.

According to Yahoo, he's 8-13 at 50+ yards in his career. He's 40-51 at 40-49 yards out. So, he's a pretty good long kicker. I'd put him at better than 50% for a 51 yarder. Again, I agree, the Titans may very well have gotten the 10 yards back. Hell, they may have scored a TD on a Johnson screen. But, the point is you MAKE them. You don't just concede that your defense can't stop them. Jauron told his team, with his decision, that he has no faith in them to play. And based on the final score, the players responded accordingly.

Whether they get the yards back or not is not the point. The point is you MAKE them get the yardss back. I agree a 51 yarder is no gimmie, but with their kicker its certainly in his range. The problem is Jauron just conceded the FG try, rather than giving his defense a chance to stop them - or God forbid get a turnover. Afterall, we have a guy in the secondary that leads the league in interceptions. Similar to earlier in the year when he took is offense off the field, late in the game when we needed 2 scores; today he took his defense off the field when we needed them to stop the Titans without a score. I'm sorry, but there's not a coach in the league that would not have backed them out of FG range. Jauron wuit on the team. What's so bad is its not the first time and much like the previous time, the team let him know how they felt by completely falling apart after that. If it's not apparent that he's lost this team by now then it never will be.

Are you suggesting that because the Titans converted a 3rd and long earlier in the game, you don't push them out of FG range and force them to convert a 3rd and long again? You do realize that a 10point lead with 3and half minutes left, and this offense, is a near insurmountable lead.

He is literally the lone bright spot on this team. When he made that pick, I just shook my head in disbelief. The guy is tremendous.

I'm fairly certain his contract status is no longer an issue. Surely, they could show tape of this last game and find Jauron in breach of contract because there's no way you can say this team is being coached.

And with 2 weeks to prepare, he gives them all multiple days off from practice and they come out with a mistake-filled, double digit penalty performance. Way to keep them sharp.

Every player on the team should have just walked off the field. How do you not accept a penalty that pushes a team out of FG range and at least force them to get it back? Unbelievable was Gannon's call and he's absolutely right. Unbelievable.

Can we just in fire him already and put us all out of our misery?

What's worse... a player dropping passes and not caring? Or a player dopping passes and the coach still thinks he doesn't need to practice with his starting QB?
