Rapid Reaction - 10 Observations About Today's Game 10) From Greg Williams to Mike Mularkey to Dick Jauron to Chan Gailey to Doug Marrone and now to the Great Rex Ryan, Bills coaches of the past 15 years or so seem to have these stinker games where their teams mostly no-show big home games just after the national media starts to give them some love. It's not hard to understand why Bills fans have adopted the phrase, "One hunderd times bitten, eternally shy." 9) Least penalized team in the league? I'd take least penalized team in the game. The Bills saw so much yellow in this game doctors at ECMC want to check them all for jaundice. Preston Brown and Jerry Hughes seem to have wagered a few Benjamins as to which one of them will break the all-time record for personal fouls in a season. That said, the holding call on Urbik that nullified Tyrod's beautiful TD run was very ticky-tacky. 8) Speaking of Tyrod, I know he wants to prove to the world that he can be a pure pocket passer, but it is coming at the expense of him turning down some running opportunities that appear to have the potential to go for big gains. The play where he was called for an illegal forward pass was a great example. He could have picked up 20 yards easy if he had tucked and ran. 7) Bradham just has to make that tackle on 3rd and short. Games are won and lost on simple plays sometimes and, quite simply, that missed tackle sank the Bills today. 6) If I'm not mistaken, the Bills have not successfully defended a 2-pt conversion this entire season. If I was an opposing coach I would go for 2 every time against Buffalo until they show they can stop someone. 5) What happened to the vaunted front four? They are probably the highest paid defensive foursome in the NFL, but they have been as invisible as Donald Trump's restraint in the face of a Megyn Kelly question. Teams are somehow finding ways to neutralize what was supposed to be the greatest strength of this team. That has to change if the playoffs are to remain a real possibility. 4) After a couple of early drops, Charles Clay rebounded with a big game. He is the best TE this team has had going all the way back to the Keith McKeller, Pete Metzelaars days. If Sammy ever comes back healthy, Clay will be even more dangerous. 3) I still am a Tyrod Taylor fan. He keeps his composure and always has his eyes down field. He put 14 points on the scoreboard that penalties brought back. Whatever ails the Bills, it ain't the QB. 2) It's time to find out just how good of a coach Rex Ryan truly is. His team is ignoring the old Marv Levy axiom and they're playing dumb and they're playing dirty. Fix the penalties and you'll fix the W column. That's all on Sexy Rexy. 1) The big picture is that it was an out-of-conference loss. The type you want to have if you have to take one. The next five are all in conference and winnable. Time to stop talkin' the talk and prove you can walk the walk.

Scoring won't be a problem this year, but the goaltending is suspect.

Hammer's Lot Mentioned On MSN Travel!

I'm curious about that too, Dean. I always call him Pinto Kenny, I just used the Ron because that's what the article stated. -
Hammer's Lot Mentioned On MSN Travel!
ChevyVanMiller replied to HereComesTheReignAgain's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
And the stadium has had some nice multi-million dollar upgrades over the past two years. Still, nice mention of Hammer's Lot and Pinto Ron. -
The boys at TSN are already fretting over the Leafs. They also have some nice things to say about Eichel. http://www.tsn.ca/nhl/video/should-babcock-be-concerned%7E716281

4-0 shutout. Eichel with the beautiful shorty, Rodrigues with 2 goals and Lehner gets the shutout. Can't wait for the regular season. This team is going to be fun to watch.

You're not old enough to get an answer to this question.

Rapid Reaction - 10 Observations About Today's Game 10) Well, if no one else will, I'll say it: After nearly 20 years and enduring QBs the likes of Collins, Johnson, Holcolmb, Losman, Edwards and Orton, we have finally found a true Field General with the ability to lead us to meaningful games in January. Tyrod was a beast today ( 21 of 29 for 277 yds and 3 TDs )and he is proving to be a QB that can beat you with his arm and not just his legs. 9) It sure is nice having a TE that can change the complexion of a game after so many years of being on the wrong end of other teams using that position against us up and down the field. Charles Clay wreaked havoc against his old team and it is becoming more and more apparent why the Bills targeted him with that big offer sheet in FA. 8) Even though he missed on that 54-yd FG try, it was also nice to see Dan Carpenter have a big game against the team that cut him loose. I don't know if he'll ever get out of Rex's doghouse ( or even if he should. The hate/hate relationship they have is good for scoreboard differential) but I believe when the game is on the line Dan will always be "The Man." 7) "Downtown" Preston Brown is causing a lot of Bills fans to say, "Kiko who?" these days with his stellar play. His two picks and return for 6 today is going to quickly make his name known outside of the 716. 6) Somebody please tell Rambo that Darby is on the same team. Twice today Bacarri went all Jayne Mansfield on number 28 and nearly decapitated the stellar rookie. Maybe Darby needs a red "no hit" jersey when he playes with Rambo. 5) Am I the only one starting to wonder if Sammy Watkins is going to be one of those guys that just can't stay healthy? I love the kid and when he's healthy he is a true force. I just hope he isn't known by the moniker "Hammy" Watkins when his career is said and done. 4) This defense is nearly impossible to run on. So long as the other team doesn't have a HOF QB that throws nearly 60 times while getting the ball out in 1.7 seconds, teams are going to have a hard time beating us while being one dimensional. The Cold Front is just getting warmed up. 3) Karlos Williams is special. His combination of size, blazing speed and power makes him a beast to bring down. Today he became the first Bills back to rush for over 100 yards in more than a season. He and Shady make a great 1-2 punch. The only question is who should be 1 and who should be 2? 2) The O-Line deserves some praise. The Bills have put up over 30 points every week and Tyrod has had ample time to sit in the pocket and pull the trigger on some big pass plays. Let's hope that Miller and Henderson aren't hurt seriously. 1) Here are two words that we haven't thrown around after a game for awhile - Total Domination. The Bills were the better team in all 3 phases today and the Fish weren't so much squished as they were put in a Waring Blender and put through every stage from liquify to puree. I don"t think Eli Manning is going to get much sleep this week.

This is going to be one exciting year. Ennis was a beast tonight. That Kane, Ennis, Eichel line was a thing of beauty to watch.

Hope (just try living, or following the Bills or Sabres, without it) -
Woohoo. A great start to what is going to be a great career for Jack Eichel.
