Rex Ryan MNF Lead-in
Straight Hucklebuck replied to Eastcoastlegacy's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
None of this team garbage is going to mean a thing if we get curb stomped by the Panthers. Can we give it a break with this McDermott hype? -
Sorry eball I learn a lot more from these questions, than Chris Brown option question or John Murphy's useless soft ball questions. Jerry Sullivan: Are you concerned that the WRs only had 4 completions on the day? You just said it was a group decision, now you're saying it was a business decision, which is it? Matt Fairburn: What can you do to generate a pass rush, only 1 sack on the day? Rather than... Chris Brown: How are you going to celebrate this win, go home with family or start film study with Coaches? John Murphy: Coach can you describe how magical it was to run out there as the Bills Coach? I don't learn anything with the company parrots lobbing in their softball questions. You get better when you have to think about problems, when things go wrong. That's how you discover the thought process behind these decisions.

The question with most Bills in the later half of this drought has been; we've seen running the ball, hitting a few timely passes, and playing defense is good enough to beat the bad teams, but can they beat good teams this way? The answer last season was 1-7*. Do they Bills have the Coaching to throw the ball down the field ? I'm skeptical on that. Do they have WRs that can get deep with vertical speed? Very skeptical on that.

Positive/Negatives from Today's game
Straight Hucklebuck replied to Overseas Bills Fan's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Positives 1. Time of Possession 2. Secondary looked faster, Trey White, Gaines, Poyer and Hyde were flying around. 3. Tyrod escaped 2-3 would be sacks out there. Negatives 1. Stop trying to get the edge with Tolbert. We lost yards on that play at least 3 times. Stupidest Moment 1. Todd "Marrone" Bowles punting from midfield on 4th-8 with 4 minutes to play in the 4th quarter down by 2 scores. -
Does This Time Feel Different?
Straight Hucklebuck replied to MarlinTheMagician's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
The Jets were a 2-point conversion away from tying the game late in the 3rd Quarter. That said, it was a Bills formula victory - running the ball, controlling clock, making a few plays in the air when needed, creating that frenzy in the secondary. -
Lorenzo Alexander: "Sean cut the fat."
Straight Hucklebuck replied to Beast's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Problem is we hear this every year from our team. Every new Coach has the right idea, the right plan. Some fans fell in love with Chan's reputation with offense, others bought Marrone's tough guy act, I thought Rex would do better with the defense than he did. -
Prediction Time - Bills/Jets
Straight Hucklebuck replied to Foxx's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
13-9 Jets, that's what I wrote earlier in the week. I think the Bills can win, but I do think it's going to be an ugly game between two teams that can't score. You could see a halftime score of 3-3. -
How are the Bills better than the last few years when they have finished with an aggregate 8-8 record? The talent doesn't say they're better on either side of the ball. And sorry McDermott is not getting a pass as a better Coach than Marrone or Ryan just because he is new. He has shown nothing so far.

What is the value of real team chemistry?
Straight Hucklebuck replied to scribo's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Was the team that impressive this preseason? Did the penalties get fixed? We'll see in the regular season, but usually the Coach starts running out of answers in the post game about Week 7 or 8 around here. -
PFF names EJ Gaines top CB of preseason
Straight Hucklebuck replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Hopefully he continues his strong play and stays healthy. -
Our Coach wants to run the ball because we play in Buffalo, Belichick has outsmarted the league by reinventing how to use multiple RBs as pass catchers, taking over the middle of the field with Tight Ends, using pick routes to perfection, going for it on 4th down, making trades for talented players and is a defensive mastermind to boot. He's nothing like our Coach.

QB Joe Webb (update: now signed)
Straight Hucklebuck replied to BillsFanForever19's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
According to John Murphy and Donald Jones, Webb is a do it all player that can punt, return kicks, play WR, slide down and play some NT, be a cover corner, kick field goals, long snap, you name it. -
"And C'Mon man!!! How can people not be excited about our new HC?!" - Well he only talks in platitudes and cliches for one. Everything is a process. He is the classic Topper. He's done it all, seen it all, done everything, knows everything, has every answer. - He is obsessed with Special Teams. - Today he mentioned something like showing "what the city of Buffalo is about". What's that Coach? Workin' real hard, bringin' the ole lunchpail to Factory Job and putting in a 16 hour day at the press? Of course we need a team based on Toughness and running the ball because in December it snows. How does he know what the heck this city is about? He's never been here before and it shows with his obsession with getting as many Panthers on the team as possible. How about a Coach who wants to live in 2017 and develop a top notch passing game? Instead of punts, a Coach that wants to go for it on 4th down and hang 40 on you? Nope we're going to get 3rd Down and manageable. McDermott is joyless so far.

Bills' Roster Cuts to the 53 Man Limit
Straight Hucklebuck replied to 26CornerBlitz's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
McDermott has not been impressive thus far. Just like Marrone he sounded that way the first time I heard him speak to the Buffalo media. Sean's done it all, seen it all, knows it all. If you have a story he.can top it. Ole' Topper McDermott.
