  1. I think they will likely protect QBs because they have so few decent ones. I be there more successful teams will have the QBs who can throw on the run because these lines will likely be porous.
  2. I thought he was playing Troy aikman and Michael Irvin similar to Peyton Manning learning his first year while sucking. Obviously you know Jimmy minds better than me. I Iwill speak for Cowboy fans of that era- short of winning the super bowl in 1989 there was nothing Jimmy could have done to impress them, they were pissed that Landry was pushed out the door.
  3. Johnson did not tank the year, he had no talent when he arrived and made a trade of his one best player for 8 draft picks. He did not make them much worse in 1989 but made them much stronger in the future. That is very different than tanking which is intentioanlly making your team bad.
  4. I do not thing the NFL has a tanking problem- I know the Browns did it and Miami is now but it is not a likely scenario since it taskes so many players to be good in the NFL. Basically no rookie will be good enough by himself to turn a team around and a team would have to be bad 5 years to get enough guys together to make it work and no GM survives 5 bad years.
  5. No on so many levels but mainly because he is not more talented than our current DEs and is a whiner even when winning.
  6. I did not realize it had been that long- I though do think he might work with Josh because of Josh and his improvising. But my expectations would now be " this is a complete flyer"
  7. I think he is simply not available enough- but I do not fear him being a prima Donna now.
  8. I can not see him playing anywhere else- but I do believe if he does it will be Miami since I think his main motivation would be to show he is the reason for success not BB.
  9. I agree- I would rather have 3 WR that are in the second tier than a top WR and a bunch of scrubs. I right now can not think of a top WR who is dominant right now and the reason his team is winning- (possibly Michael Thomas)
  10. She knew what she was getting into before we married-the first time I watched a Bills game with her and her family it was the 1998 Bills/Patriots game where the officials literally did everything worng for NE to win at the end and I was literally jumping up and down. I have calmed down some since then and as long as I keep my mouth and actions below that level she can not complain(too much)
  11. Why do I watch any game with Pats*- it is completely different rules than any game the Bills play. There were 2 blatant holds on the drive on third downs. In Buffalo they looked for reasons to make calls, but not true here
  12. I land at noon on saturday- if it is a 1 o'clock game I will have to watch part on my phone and some at CC sport pub which is two blocks from hotel. My wife is gonna be unhappy with me.
  13. That might be the way I go- if games means anything everyone will be a Bills fan that day
  14. I would have preferred you let me prove I am an idiot before just assuming it.
  15. I will be staying in Pentagon City during Bills Pats* game with my non sport loving Brother in law. I need a place to watch game that is hopefully close to the metro since I will not have a car.
  16. As a bills fan I am thrilled all our starters across the defense are actually talented vs our many years of 8 talented and 3 hacks- so don't get greedy.?
  17. The only part I disagree with is where you intentionally got louder to irritate them. But I do understand that if you are just being loud at a sporting event with proper language then others should have no issue.
  18. You are correct but does anyone have real depth anymore? I hope Milano is back next week
  19. He had no turnovers and had three scoring drives- that is an F? What did you give Peterman vs SD?
  20. We really need a sarcasm font on here- I have no idea if this is serious.
  21. It seems to me like he learns much better from playing then game film since his first half typically is do much worse then second half. He is not great yet but he keeps winning and we have not had to bail him out of his mistakes since week one.
  22. I do not know how old you are but the early 90 bills struggled to beat every AFC east team by a lot, I remember several years against bad Pats*/Jets teams needing 4th quarter plays. In the NFL a 5-1 team is good regardless of how they came by the 5 wins.
  23. My son was wearing his Fitzpatrick jersey to start game and I made him change it once Dolphins scored 14. I believe my intervention was the true key
  24. I actually wonder if he is done- it seems his talent will get him another shot with someone like the Redskins. I though hope you are correct
  25. A: One word: disaster. CBS and NBC freaked out because their ratings plummeted thanks to a continually depleted Sunday slate; teams complained that they couldn't maintain momentum when they weren't playing enough games in a row; everyone hated losing the week off between the conference title games and the Super Bowl; and most importantly, fantasy owners couldn't figure out who to bench/waive/pick up since we didn't have the Internet yet. The real problem: With only 28 teams and a top-heavy league, that left eight or nine Sunday afternoon games per bye week … and only two or three of those games were good. We didn't have DirecTV's season package back then, or the Red Zone Channel, so if you were stuck with a crappy local game (or even worse, a crappy local team that wiped out the quality national game you could have been watching), your whole day was ruined. Trust me, my Patriots overachieved that season by going 5-11. (Double bye weeks) + (no DirecTV) X (crummy local team) = bitter. And that's why double bye weeks went the way of New Coke, "Cop Rock," Planet Hollywood, Rick Mirer and "The Pat Sajak Show." " 25 years ago it failed and now it is still dead? The TV world has changed a ton since then as has players desires. I am not saying it is a done deal but the landscape is so different that comparing them is line comparing beer salad then and now.
