  1. Now that is the appropriate word... "manhandled"... 3 games in a row; that is the reason for "doom and gloom" (and the reason for fans to call this team out).
  2. As a 40+ year Bills fan, I have "seen it all" and... a team getting smoked like this 3 games in a row deserves all the doom and gloom rants that are written. They are a joke!
  3. Brad Smith is our version of a "kick-off catcher"...
  4. You have to love how much heart he plays with and he is an outstanding player in all facets but one... he is a liability in pass coverage. Always has been. Poz was no better, either. Barnett is a step up; great leader, good tackling and the bonus he provides... he can cover against the pass.
  5. I play the headline game also, but I think he is an excellent columnist. I know he harps on the negative but the Bill's have been deserving of that type of commentary for years. It is tough, however, to jump all over Nix because of Merriman. Most coaches/GM's that go to new teams have faith in players from their previous experiences.
  6. Glenn Parker, Jon Davis, Paul McGuire (better known as a commentator that a linebacker and punter), Harry Jacobs
  7. I am quite sure the body slammer was Dave Washington, linebacker. My memory is going but it happened in front of me and I think he was the guy.
  8. In games prior to last week they did take shots down the field and I don't remember one single shot they took against Philly. I am sure the WR injuries have a lot to do with it. I hope they try stretching it once in a while in future games or I would not be surprised to have us turn over the ball if we do nothing but throw short passes.
  9. I believe he finished it in 13 minutes, which is also sick.
  10. It is high time he is recognized as such and... Nix and the coaches need to swallow their pride and treat Spiller as a "Reggie Bush" type back! Fred has been running with this type of passion for a long time, is a great blocker and can catch the ball! Spiller should be nothing more than a change of pace back.
  11. How can you respect any network that has Michael Irvin as a commentator?
  12. Just like you... thanks!
  13. From Ruthless People... "This could very well be the stupidest person on the face of the earth".
  14. Nice call on James. He revolutionized pass coverage. I was at the game that he blew out his knee. It was a terrible looking injury.
  15. And Chandler was one of the best downfield blockers ever. He was a great player but through time has become underrated.
  16. Frd Jackson is such a complete back, I don't think Spiller's opportunities will increase that much.
  17. He starred in the real glory years of the Sabres. My Dad used to see him up at Finlocks in Clarence quite often and always said he was a real down to earth guy. RIP
  18. And a local guy being their President and CEO (Mark Murphy)!
  19. Sorry... just because I want to hear it sung in the fashion in which I grew up with and one that our military subscribes to does not make me a guy that never screws up. And yes, I would like to see the "performance" part whittled down to where it shows some respect. Just my opinion... but you are awfully judgemental yourself.
  20. Besides screwing up the words, can the NFL please... PLEASE get someone that sings it in the manner in which it is supposed to be sung. I know I am possibly being old fashioned, but come on! You get a guy like the one that sang the anthem at the two Chicago playoff games... now that will be patriotic!!!!!!
  21. Definately getting old... slept through the second quarter!
  22. Good point... thanks! My mind is mush from all these years. Years ago... they seemed to specialize in the "mail in".
  23. The most shameful thing is that if we would ever improve to average, Ralph would be happy with that and make no further moves to get to the next level...
