Fitz has a career QB rating of just 76.7, with nearly a 1-1 TD to INT ratio. He also fumbles 4 times per year and has a lowly win percentage of 0.356. He's not mediocre - he's below par and he turned 7 games into a golden parachute - You gotta hand it to those Harvard guys!

Thanks for the comments, Beerball, all on the mark. The point I'm making with Jackson is I can envision them not playing him in the last two games, then trying to sell him as a plausible alternative to Fitz next year. I'd rather they shed themselves of that disillusion right now.

Love watching Rubio play. He's the closest thing to the master of them all - Pistol Pete - and they look a bit alike, too.

"The entire season has been a huge regression for a team with playoff aspirations. The easy schedule turned into a Herculean task that proved to be an epic failure for both the coaches and the players. The franchise QB has turned out to be a commoner with a King’s contract." http://niagarahub.fatcow.com/category/nfl-football/

Anyone remember Strange Brew?

Thought I'd have a little fun with two of my favorite (favourite?) SCTV characters. "Bob McKenzie: What a big week, eh? American football – that’s with 4 downs and no 55-yard line – comes to Canada for a big showdown at Rogers Centre – that’s with an “re” at the end, you American hosers." http://niagarahub.fa...y/nfl-football/

That, and the 58 point spanking they laid down last week, I think it's safe to lean the Seahawks way this week.

"We're using each other as references on our resumes, right?"

Also, factor in that C.J. will start by default and get 15+ carries. The last time that happened, the Bills had their only 2-game winning streak this season.

"Gailey is a bad coach whose fallback position is conservatism. If he had tried the two-pointer, the field goal or went for it on 4th and 7 and failed, most Bills’ fans would have at least felt that their team went down swinging. Instead, they tucked their tail between their legs and walked gingerly into the postseason protecting what is left of their ever-shrinking scrotums." http://niagarahub.com/2012/12/10/bills-thrills-bills-don-their-gailey-off-season-apparel/

You're right. i had him in mind when I started writing and forgot to include him. It was the best game of his entire career.

Is there anyone I missed that deserved a game ball?

"All of those moments were amazing, but they pale in comparison to C.J. Spillers 44-yard gallop for a TD in the 4th quarter. Spillicious hit the edge and shifted into a gear that Maserati is still hoping to achieve. If Fred Jackson was the meat and potatoes of the Bills’ attack in this game, then Spiller was the Crème Brule that left the taste buds vibrating with satisfaction." http://niagarahub.co...s-nation-yawns/

Hence the rest of the sentence that states that their combined fan clubs consist of a number that would easily fit in a phone booth. Boy, people's attention spans are really getting short when they don't make it through an entire sentence.

"Mercifully, the game will be blacked out locally and may be the first time the Jags play to more empty seats on the road than they do at home. Mike Mularkey and Paul Posluszny make their long-anticipated returns to Buffalo and their respective fan clubs will hold a combined pre-game meeting in a phone booth 3/4s of a mile from RWS." http://niagarahub.co...-start-winning/

Be thankful that one is locked - On the week that Mart Martin's son died there should be a moratorium on peter pansies pic. Check out the original link when you get home.

File was too big, so I just added the link.

It's been a long, long time (sigh)...

I think you have to go all the way back to LaMonica and Harris (unless you count what Collins did late in his career for the Redskins) to find a Bills QB that made a difference for another team.

No whistle. The play continued and Fitz missed the pass - by a country mile.

Trade up and get Barkley or whomever the consensus #1 QB ends up being. Worked out for the 'Skins don't you think?

The hold on Kyle Williams on the first play of the game was about as flagrant as you'll ever see - again a no-call.

Fair enough. Damn that Jim Kelly for getting old

Thanks for the low blow. I believe i started the sentence "If any further proof was needed..." Try writing a regular column about this team and find ways to keep putting a fresh spin on losing - It's not easy, that's for sure.
