  1. By harping on this fact, you're proving 1 of 2 things: Either you work as an ESPN analyst or you follow football because of your fantasy football teams. Either way, you obviously did not watch the game or did not understand what was going on.
  2. Or sit him and start someone that's healthy enough to play. I had visions of McGee getting torched by Ginn last year. Of course that's ok because McGee was injured and really shouldn't have been playing. If they've got no replacement at Center, then just punt the friggin ball every play. But stop putting injured players out there that just get abused by the opposing team and hurt the entire team.
  3. Great another rookie/unknown backup gets to play the Bills and have a Pro Bowl worthy, career day against us while we get to hear our guys say things like "they did some things we hadn't seen before" in the post game press conference. Everyone will begin to talk about how good Henning is only to have him continue to start and suck balls against every other team in the league. Stop. I wanna get off.
  4. The worst day in Bills' history, IMO. Unceremoniously cut Bruce Smith, Thurman Thomas, and Andre Reed. In one fell swoop they removed the team's all time leading pass rusher, running back, and wide receiver. If anyone is looking for why this team is cursed, I'd say that's enough bad Karma to last quite some time.
  5. So if your Center is hurt and cannot snap the ball back in shotgun formation, why not tell Trent to get under center for the snap? Shouldn't the coaches at some point in time look at how their players are playing on the field and make some adjustment to try and improve that play?
  6. It's hard to win an NFC game.
  7. There's always gotta be someone that just likes to argue. I suppose that's you today. Because there can be no logical rationale for you to even begin to sidetrack a thread of decent comments with inane ramblings about how poor the defense played yesterday. Do you not recognize that we held the highest scoring Offense in 40 years to a paltry 10 points through more than 3 quarters. How is that anything but good? If our offense knew what a hot read was, knew how to run crossing routes, remembered what draw and screen plays were, or just converted 30% of their 3rd downs... maybe they could have contributed a little. But, our offense was absolutely putrid yesterday. They scored zero points, at home. Zero. That means they none. In other words, if points were food they were in Ethiopia. It doesn't matter how your defense plays, when your offense stays in the locker room, you're not going to win. And to even attempt to bring up the defense in the discussion is obtuse.
  8. Agreed it was a risky call. No doubt about it. But, it was the only way you could take control of the game. Giving the ball back to a high powered offense late in the 4th quarter more often than not gives them the game. If all we needed was 1 score, I'd agree.. punt it. But we needed 2 scores and time was running out. IMO, you're left with a bad choice and a worse choice. Take the bad one and go for it.
  9. Exactly. Even if you consider your defense does their job and forces a 3 and out. That gives you the ball back with under 6minutes (more or less). So now you're essentially putting yourself in a position to drive the field and score - something they hadn't done all day. On side kick, get it, and then score again. Bottomline, we needed that drive at that point. It was critical to move the ball and get some points. But, we punted the game away in hopes we could play the final 5-6 minutes to perfection.
  10. I want to know why most every team you watch makes throws to wide open receivers several times a game. Yet, our 2 guys are never, never wide open. It seems our CBs are always 5-10 yards away when ball is thrown and their CBs are always in blanket coverage. Every week, every team.
  11. Nope. The Bills' D came to play. And gave the offense ample opportunity to take control of the game. Too bad the offense just decided to take the day off.
  12. Trent has enough time on enough plays to at least attempt a ball to the WRs. But, all too often he was standing back there waiting for the sack. He's not going to get 4-6 seconds consistently. He needs to pick the guy with single coverage, drop back and throw it. How long does that take... 2, 3 seconds? I agree the O line looked miserable today. But, Trent did absolutely nothing to help it. He looked scared more than anything. Of course, it would have helped to throw in some screens and draw plays as well.
  13. Exactly. I watch the NFL Highlights shows and every other team in the league looks competent at least some of the time and then you watch the Bills and ...pfft. They look clueless.
  14. Actually the offense scored 17, 26, and zero.
  15. or 4th and 25. Brilliant!
  16. Donte started Pierre Thomas on his FF team?
  17. Friggin awesome final drive! 3 bad snaps in a row. Trent dropping back, waiting to take the sack. 4th down - hit Jackson at the LOS. Just !@#$in pathetic.
  18. Exactly, with all that Blitzing, someone has to have single coverage. Trent needs to throw the damn ball to them.
  19. Yeah Hargrove little blew his breath on him. That was the worst roughing the passer call I've ever seen - by far.
  20. It's called 3rd down and the Bills defense can not stop a team from converting.
  21. Best thing about this game is the fans. Every time Brady throws a bad pass or someone drops it, you hear this loud moan for the "fans". They're reduced to cheering when the Pats* get a first down. Pats* take the 3rd quarter opening kickoff down for a FG and almost no cheers when they score it to go up by 6. Wonderful fans they got in Foxboro.
  22. Fisher... no sun glasses. And they're losing. Coincidence?
  23. Saw that too. And thought the same thing. So, this is how the game is going to go, huh? How can you call roughing the passer when the QB doesn't even get knocked down?
