Gameday Thread 2nd Half Bills@ Falcons
sven233 replied to Chandler#81's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I don't know why everyone is acting so surprised at that call. To me, that's a fumble all day. The ball was knocked out of his grasp and then his fingers pushed it forward. He did not have control over the ball in his hand. It was already coming out and the fingers pushed it forward. To me, that was a fumble all day. -
Gameday Thread 1st Half Bills @ Falcons
sven233 replied to Chandler#81's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
They scored there, but have to give credit where's it's due.... Dareus was in the backfield there and did everything he could do to make a play. Unfortunately, Williams just didn't have his best rep there. But, overall, can't complain at all about the D to this point. -
Gameday Thread 1st Half Bills @ Falcons
sven233 replied to Chandler#81's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Zay has good hands. At this point, it is all in his head. He's pressing and has no confidence. I honestly believe if he can make 1 big play, he will be just fine. Whether he can get past the mental issues soon, who knows. But he needs to make a play. -
Judge Dareus by how many blocks he is taking up. If he is getting double-teamed a majority of the day when he's in there, he's doing his job. If he's being handled 1 on 1, then you should really be getting more. But if he ties up 2 guys on a regular basis and allows the LBs to make plays, then he deserves all the credit in the world regardless of what the stat line says.

Gameday Thread Bills vs Broncos 1st Half
sven233 replied to Chandler#81's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Yup.....it's kind of a strange rule, but yeah....no matter what happens after an opposing team touches the ball, you keep it. Worth a try! -
Gameday Thread Bills vs Broncos 1st Half
sven233 replied to Chandler#81's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Because the Broncos player touched it first. Once an opposing team touches a punt, nothing bad can happen. Tate can pick it up and run all he wants. Even if he fumbles, Buffalo keeps the ball. It was actually a very smart play. -
We better root for the Bengals to find a way to win. They are awful and will definitely be looking for a QB in the draft. We need them to win as many as possible at this point because it certainly looks like we could be better than them.

YardsPerPass @YardsPerPass 1m1 minute ago Tyrod missed Matthews wide open over the middle on 3rd down
-
Oh....he was getting hit a lot in the 1st half. Make no mistake about that. He didn't get too much help from his O-Line at all, especially early. But, as the first half went along, even when he did have time to throw, he was holding the ball too long at times and was making a few poor decisions. It wasn't a good half at all and there was plenty of blame to go around.

What a game. Rosen was brutal in the 1st Half. He was then both brilliant and lucky in the 2nd Half. What a fantastic game to watch. FIRE UP THE HOT TUB!!!!!

GDT: Preseason Game 4 - Lions vs. Bills at 7 PM ET
sven233 replied to 26CornerBlitz's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Couldn't help but see it...... Do you know how hard that is to do? A dude that big, with 1 yard to go, with a bunch of other HUGE dudes right in front of him, found a way to COMPLETELY MISS everyone when his sole job is to push guys backwards. Didn't think that was possible for a guy that big to do. -
Trade Tyrod and Shady before the season starts
sven233 replied to Saint Douggie's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I love Shady, but if for some reason a team gets crazy and offers a 1st, I take it in a heartbeat and don't look back. At this point, with the way things have played out, this year should be about 1 thing......getting as close to the top of April's Draft as possible. -
At this point I wish Beane would just realize that MOST Bills fans would not only understand a tanked season, but would actually be all for it. There is no way he can truly believe we have a chance at a Playoff spot this season. Many fans threw up the tank sign as soon as Watkins and Darby were traded. This only furthers those feelings and Beane should really embrace the fan's support of a tank this season. If the fans understand it, now is the time. He won't have a better chance than this season to tank and get away with complete understanding. Then again, maybe he already believe in his heart we are bad enough to get a top 3 pick without doing anything else....... He may be right, but I, along with many others, would be more than happy to take 1 or 2 more steps to ensure we get there.
-
Very interesting if true..... Not that I expected that he had too much left, but no way the Bills saw this coming. If they did, not sure they would have traded Watkins. Maybe they would have anyway, but who knows. Will be interesting to see what comes of this.

Yeah....Couldn't miss him out there tonight! -
Eric Wood the logical next one to go?
sven233 replied to Mountain Man's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
At this point, Shady and Wood should be traded and Williams should retire...... If you can deal Taylor, do that too. At that point, we could give the Jets a run for their money. If you're going to tank.....then REALLY TANK!!!! -
If I wasn't such a fan, I would be shutting WGR off right now. Murphy and Chris Brown are seriously pissing me off right now trying to spin this..... Call it what it is.... a huge step backward this season. To me, the only things that will make these trades worth it is if they finish the job..... Trade Shady, trade Tyrod if possible, etc.... If you're going to take the top players off this team, don't stop here. Go all the way with is and do everything you can to lose the entire season. I hate saying this, but if you're going to tank.....then REALLY TANK.

I called DirecTV a year and a half ago because I was just fed up with paying $140 or whatever it was per month for TV. Had no premium channels, no Sunday Ticket or anything. Just a Choice Extra package that I had originally signed up for 9 years ago or so. I had actually been doing research into all of the new streaming TV options out there instead of sticking with DirecTV any longer anyway, so I figured I had nothing to lose by demanding the world to stay with them. I had basically already decided to leave DirecTV for PlayStation Vue anyway (for just $34.95 per month). Vue offered every channel I ever watched on DirecTV for $100 less, but since it was a fairly new technology, I figured I would at least see what DirecTV would offer me to stay. Anyway, long story short, I went straight to the Retention department and told them I was leaving and they offered me like $20 off my bill a month and some free movie channels for 3 months. I told them to cancel my service somewhat expecting them to offer more. They didn't and I cancelled on the spot. Signed up for PlayStation Vue and have never looked back. VERY HAPPY. Point of the story..... No more than a week after cancelling DirecTV, I started getting mailers (and I am still getting them sometimes 2-3 days per week) BEGGING me to come back. They are offering free Sunday Ticket and New Customer pricing! They keep telling me that they want to reward me for being a loyal customer. Now, if they would have offered this to me in the first place, i probably would have stayed, but they didn't and I don't miss it at all. So, if you really want to stick with DirecTV but they aren't budging on pricing......if you are willing to risk it and can live without DirecTV for a week or 2, you will probably get the same offers to come back that I did in the mail very soon after you cancel. You will get your free Sunday Ticket and new customer pricing for taking the chance and cancelling. However, I won't be going back anyway because I am getting just as good of TV with streaming TV. With my Roku, I pay $34.95 per month for Playstation Vue and get every channel I watched on DirecTV except for 1 (no additional fees, either.....just the flat rate), and then $10 each or whatever for Netflix and Hulu. So, for $55 per month, I have more options than DirecTV could ever offer. I do add on the NHL Center Ice package for Sabres games and all the other games as well, but that's it. So, paying less than half of what I did to DirecTV and have tons more options. Best decision I have ever made. I could add Sunday Ticket through the Roku as well, but at this point, I haven't done it, but it is available. I know this wasn't exactly on topic, but it might give a few of you out there some food for thought.

Games in the early 90s were insane. There were multiple times, even in Playoff games, where the refs would stop the game asking for the fans to settle down because the opposing team couldn't even run a play. Obviously, they don't do this anymore, but there were times the refs actually did this. Crazy to think about, actually. Like the poster said above, there were 80,000+ in the stadium, we were finally starting to win big, and Rich Stadium was one of the most incredible places you would ever want to be. Sure, there have been some loud games over the last few years, but it's nothing like it was back then.

Silent thread for the Maclin thread
sven233 replied to Captain_Quint's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
228 pages........ What a run...... If I remember right, though, that is 1 page short of the Mario Williams thread. I believe that got to 229. Guess we'll have to wait for our Super Bowl Championship win thread to surpass Mario's thread. RIP. -
Moulds would have been a HOFer if he had any yoe of help at QB. He was so good,
