  1. Has never gotten 1 thing right......
  2. I actually don't see Marrone starting EJ......for 1 reason........ If EJ goes out there and actually does play very well and the the Bills win (long shot, I know), everyone will be on Marrone for not playing him sooner, especially with just how terrible Orton has been over the last couple of months for the most part. Marrone decided to go with Orton and was going to sink or swim with him for the rest of the year. He chose his guy. If the guy he benched goes out there, after not playing for 13 weeks or whatever and beats the Cheatriots* after the way Orton has played for so long now, Marrone will look like more of a fool than he already does. So, if he plays Orton and loses in much the same way we always do, nobody will have a chance to see if Manuel actually learned anything over the last few months......
  3. Well, it is not so much about the Chargers winning......now that the 49ers have nothing to play for, I am worried that they mail it in. Then, I am just not sure which Chiefs team shows up...... I mean, could they lose 1? Sure...... But I think they get an easy win this week with the 49ers having nothing to play for. But it is football.......strange things happen.......
  4. Look.......here's the deal. At this point we just need to get to the Cheatriots* game with a chance. Beat the Raiders and make Week 17 mean something. Nobody sees us winning there. If we get to that game, that is all we can ask for as Bills fans......a chance. A chance to beat the team that has been in our way for a decade. A chance to win in a building we have never won in. These other games with other teams are going to playout however they playout. If we don't win this week, it doesn't matter. Beat the Raiders this week and, no matter what else happens this week, the biggest game we have had in 15 years is right there for the taking. Yes, we need help to get in. We may or may not get it. But this would be huge for our team......win these 2 and we'll see what happens. Winning these last 2 games, controlling what we can control is BIG, regardless of whether the other things go our way or not. It would be heartbreaking to win both and not get in, but the one thing it would show is that this team is almost there.......we need a QB, TE, and some Guards, but winning the BIG games when you need them.....that is a big step in itself. Personally, I don't think we are going to get the help we need.....I think the Chargers will end up being in our way, but this is the NFL....anything can happen. So, beat the Raiders and make thie Cheatriots* game a franchise defining game. Then......GO TAKE IT.
  5. Have to stop taking stupid penalties! Of course, we have to block better too. But if we want to do anything, we need to get better starting field position. Gotta flip the field somehow.
  6. You guys haven't seen anything yet. Watched just about every game of his in college. Just wait until he is healthy. He is nowehere near 100% right now. When he is healthy, this performance will not only be the norm, but there will be so much more. He is unbelievable. Just hope he can get healthy soon.
  7. You know what.......it hasn't been said enough. Sammy Watkins is obviously in terrible pain. Has been all season here. TOUGH GUY. Thank you Sammy for your passion and desire.
  8. I don't know if I am in the minority here or not, but I truly believe that if you compare talent to talent up and down the roster, the Bills have just as good, if not better, talent that the Cheatriots*. Unfortunately, the 1 place we don't even come close on is the most important position on the field......the QB. If somehow, someway, EJ can get himself into the top half of the league at QB, the Bills will be very competitive with anyone this season. But, obviously, that is a VERY BIG "if."
  9. "Sammy Six" or "Six" But seriously, I'm good with Sammy Watkins.......
  10. Been a while since I have watched the entire game. The biggest things I remember from the game are not the problems on offense (although there were definite issues). Heck, they had the ball for 19 minutes and scored 19 points. A point per minute of possession isn't too bad. But, there were definitely missed opportunities. Thomas was a beast in that game and couldn't be stopped. He should have seen the ball a lot more. However, the main reason we lost that game, although there were several contributing factors, was that the defense simply couldn't get off the field. Several 3rd and long situations and they just couldn't get the job done. I just remember missed tackels after missed tackles. Just stupid mistakes kept the Giants on the field and Kelly and Company standing on the sidelines. Can't win games if your offense can't get on the field. Yeah, there were a lot of things that were mesed up in this game. The Bills were the better team (by miles) and if they played 10 times, I think the Bills would probably win 8 of them. But, on that day, the attention to detail and lack of fundamentals really came back to bite them. I will never get those images out of my head of our defense just failing to wrap up and make the tackles that should have been routine. They get off the field even 1 or 2 more times, we win the game and "Wide Right" never happens.
  11. I can't believe we took the 8th best Tackle!!!!!!!!!!!!
  12. First of all, this trade will never happen. While some fans, including myself, would make this trade for the right guy, I am not sure that the right guy is in this draft. In my mind, there is only 1 position that you make a trade like this to fill, and that is QB. If you believe there is a QB in this draft, or any draft for that matter, that you believe is a true fanchise guy.....a potential Top 5 QB in the league......then you make this trade every single time. As I said, I am not sure that this player is in this draft. He may be, but I'm not 100% sure. But, I don't have the access to all the inside information, all of the film breakdowns, etc. If the Bills, with all of their information have a strong enough feeling and are convinced that there is a QB in this draft that will be a Superstar, then I tell them to make the deal.....whatever it costs. However, if it is for any other position (outside of MAYBE a DE..........and that is really pushing it for me), then count me out. You don't move out all of the assets it will take to move up that far for anything but a QB. But hey, if the Bills love a QB in this draft, or any draft, and we still don't have that potential Top 5 Guy on our team, you do whatever you need to do to get that QB. All that said, the Texans would never want to trade down that far anyway, so it would never happen. The Texans are going to take a QB. They are not going into the season with Fitz as their guy. No way....
  13. "Who is first in line to take the AFC East...when Brady and/or Belichick decide their time is up with the Patriots?" SCREW THAT!!!! We're not waiting until they decide their time is up......we'll make that decision for them whether they are there or not. As far as I am concerned, if Manuel takes a nice step forward and stays healthy, even this year, we will be right there knocking on the door. If he is a little better than that, we're gonna kick the door right down on top of them. I'm tired of hearing that we'll only compete when they're gone. Are they good? of course! But, as far as I'm concerned, that team is not invincible. As someone famous used to say..... "To be the man, you gotta beat the man." Well, it's about time to put a whoopin' on "the man!"
  14. Yeah...not saying it is better for the Bills or Spikes. I think both sides can benefit from a 1 year deal. We'll just have to watch it play out. Hope he has a great year and that we handle it the right way next year.
  15. 1 year deal........ No money yet. Interesting contract if it is truly for a year. Just wondering who wanted the 1 year deal more.......Spikes or the Bills?
  16. Adam Caplan ‏@caplannfl 56s No deal with Spikes and the #Bills, source said. Story is not true. Who knows at this point.......maybe finalizing the details and it will be done soon. Adam Caplan ‏@caplannfl 1m Doesn't mean the Bills won't get a deal done with him--just nothing even close at this point.
  17. Chris Trapasso ‏@ChrisTrapasso 9m Contract is obviously pending a physical, and I'm still waiting to hear the numbers. But trusted source told me "Brandon Spikes is a Bill."
  18. Jim's wife and a few other players and people that would be "in the know" are talking about it too! About freaking time...... Congrats, #83!!!!!
  19. 3 turnovers totaling 17 points. If we didn't have to play offense in the 2nd half, we would be winning.
  20. Look......I don't know whether or not we will find a way to win this game or not, but I will say 1 thing. Outside of the pass play on 3rd and goal that resulted in the pick-6, I have actually liked the play-calling on offense. I like the deep shots. If we had a better QB that could make some better throws, this game wouldn't be close. I like the play-calling in this game. But that pick-6 will haunt this team if the Bills can't find a way to win the game. The Bills deserve a good fate in this game. They have been the much better team. But, don't confuse effort with results. We have been watching the Bills lose games they deserve to win for a very long time.
  21. Unfortunately, that Pick 6 was probably the game there. Air has completely left the team.
  22. Fact is....just a decent throw there is a TD.... Terrible throw.
  23. I have said it for a long time now......Gilmore is poised to be one of, if not the very best, corner we have ever had on this team. He is only going to get better. Although, it is hard to improve on 0 yards given up. Maybe he can throw in a pick or 2 next time! HA! Regardless.....he is going to be dominant for a very long time.
