Exactly. The ref was right there to make the call. There was absolutely nothing in the few replays they showed to think his toes or any other part of his foot was out. I'd say good call and good use of replay.

Well.. people have been saying for a while that Poz was going to rip some guy's head off. I guess they knew what they were talking about!

The McCargo hold was as blatant as it gets.

Exactly what I was just saying to a Bronco friend of mine. That call was absolutely the worst call I've seen in years. It really begs the question... just how much does a professional NFL referee cost? Because, I'm sorry, the only way I can explain that is the ref was on the take.

Well looks like tehy just "lost" to San Fran as well. Man those Seahawks are good.

WOW! That's just friggin horrible!!!

I thought that play was huge at the time. Now in hindsight, seeing how the 3rd quarter went... it may have won the game for us.

How would you feel if that silly lateral, hook and ladder kinda play worked and the Jags won? I see your point. But the Bills have had plenty of moral victories. We need some actual victories to with all that moral fiber. Today we got it. The win means alot.

You hate to say a week 2 game is really that important.. or that it determines if you're a pretender or a contender. But... This was no doubt a hugely important win, likely establishing the Bills as legitimate early contenders for a playoff spot. Two wins against 2007 playoff teams - one on the road and come from behind. It's the type of game that goes a long way to giving the team confidence in themselves and the coaches.

I'm getting this pumped up, nervous feeling in my gut like I do before all big Bills games. They need to start the game already and get the first sack on Gerrard out of the way!

I find it hard to even write a response. I'm sure it was tougher for you. I still prefer to not recount much of what I experienced in the days after. Thank you for all you do. And that last sentence.. please. That's all I've wanted to see on the news for 7 years. But, ya know, I don't even care anymore to see it on the news. If you find him and he disappears from thought forever, I can live with that.

If the Federal Government got all the profit from the refined gas at that new refinery, then I'd be all for the Federal Government building a new refinery. If an oil company that's making billions of dollars in profits each year needs a new refinery so badly, why don't they just go and build one? I guess I just don't understand why my tax dollars should go toward building a refinery that some oil company is going to then charge me an arm and a leg for the gas from that refinery. The problem with high gas prices is that we depend entirely too much on gas (and oil). If people want to remove the pressures of high gas, the solution is not building new refineries or finding more oil. It's finding a viable alternative to an oil-powered society. Drilling more oil and/or refining more gas just allows the the big oil guys to continue their strangle hold on this country. But I digress, back to my original point, why do we want less government involvement in our lives, but we demand the government to build refineries allow oil companies to drill? Seems like we don't want the government to help small guys, but we have no problem with the government helping the big guys.

I completely agree. I usually enjoy the Bills Zone videos. Definitely some of the best out there. But, for this one, when I clicked on the link and saw I had to register.... well, I opted out. I'm sure this video is great. I'm sure there are no strings attached to the registration. However, it's just a personal preference. I veer away from websites that make you register to see anything on them. If I do, its usually all completely falsified information, anyway. No big deal either way, I suppose.

This all seems like alot of trouble to see a simple video.

Really? Really... is that necessary? I stopped reading right there. Why pay attention to someone when they can't even spell our own backups name properly? Lori's write up absolutely blows anything, anyone in the media - local or national - writes.

Thanks for the info!

Quite honestly... if he can't handle the boo's or letting people down; then he needs to find a different job. Because let's face it, no one that's in the public eye pleases everyone all the time. And no one has ever won every football game they've ever been in. So, again, if he can't handle the criticism and failures that comes with being a star in the NFL - it really is best for him to just retire and do something else with his life. He'd probably be a happier person in the end.

Cassel is no Hamdan.

Good point. It certainly would have been nice to see McCargo pick his game up in response, similar to Youboty. Youboty may very well be the surprise of the season. He definitely played a solid first game.

Interestingly, much of the same could be said about McCargo and the signing of Stroud and Johnson. Similar situation, somewhat different results.

And Trent held onto the ball too long.

Agreed. Pay Evans now.

Yep... said he's coming in for a physical.

Precisely correct. It's quite refreshing to not see rookie mistakes in game 1.

No Schit. Ahead by 24 points and about 5 minutes left in the game... I'm still thinking, "OK, guys don't screw this up. It's not over yet." I was nervous until I saw them kneel on it at the end.
