Not surprised in the least. We all KNEW that's where he'd wind up but that doesn't guarantee them anything. I still don't want him on our team, even if it meant keeping him away from the Patriots. They can have him. I'd much rather like the guys we pull for every week.

Just sent paypal payment... Thanks! Will wear with pride. ?

The Comeback was awesome and I can't think of a win that felt batter... after that pick 6 to start the second half, I really can't tell you why I stayed in front of the television. So glad I did... that was unbelievable. row, another game from the 1990 season that made me think the Bills could do anything... the September matchup against Elway and the Broncos. Three touchdowns in under a minute and a half in the fourth quarter. It was crazy. From the standpoint of seeing the Bills click on all cylinders, the 51-3 Championship game against the Raiders. That game was the best time I've ever had as a fan. Oh man, I remember that game too! Kelly to Beebe was unstoppable. Good memories!!

No doubt! I dropped a note... will definitely miss #95.

I'm with you... It just rarely seems that the Bills are in the same league as the Pats. Allen's first game against Belichick... he gives great QBs fits so I expected him to have fun with the rookie. I'm sure the defense's job will be to make sure Allen doesn't run. They have better talent and coaching so not a lot of hope that we win enough matchups to make a difference in this game. I'm hoping the Bills can get competitive before Brady retires... I've gone from wishing to see the Bills win a Super Bowl before I die to wanting to see them beat Brady in no doubt fashion before he leaves the field. 3-29 (with odds on two more losses every year) is absolutely embarrassing and is a stretch of divisional futility that may stand as an all-time record.

If I remember right, Rypien was only sacked nine times that year... the whole damn YEAR.

Wow. Seems like Allen got most of it in three or four games at that.

I commented on QB play above but Josh was good enough to win this game. I'd point a finger at Special Teams, dropped passes, and conservative coaching. I HATE Jauron ball... playing not to lose... yuck. I don't want it anywhere near The Process.

That said, Barkley DID hit some key passes EARLY that gave the running game some room, especially that first bomb to Foster. Maybe not special by NFL standards, but special by the standards I've come to expect from watching our team play. I'm not an Allen detractor at all... I want the kid to be good and I have my fingers and toes crossed. I've seen some good things and I've seen some bad things. I love the way he plays... he has heart and a strong competitive desire (not to be underestimated). He's tough, has a cannon for an arm, and he can very much extend or break plays with his speed and size. We definitely need to get Allen PLENTY of help on that side of the ball to improve his development and SOON. That development is hard to pursue when his receivers are not even close to sure-handed and he's scrambling behind a rotating cast of sub-par linemen. I don't want him picking up bad habits or "learning how to lose" while we search for the rest of the parts we need on offense. Still, hope for the future.

They don't have our wide receivers!

I couldn't see it... GameCenter says the throw was wide of the receiver in the rear of the endzone. How close was it?

And I REALLY want to like Charles Clay. When the camera is in his face, he's very much a player that you want to pull for... he just hasn't been able to contribute on the field in Buffalo. He's had what, three years now? I DREAM of the day we have an impact tight end.

I keep telling myself that we just don't have the bodies on the team... some of the guys manning our special teams probably shouldn't be playing at this level. Too much turnover as well... as others have already said, changing placeholders seems to have been a bigger deal than Coach hoped.

I don't get to see many of the Bills live games but in the ones I have, it seems like a tackle always has Hughes in a headlock. I guess it's not holding since the lineman isn't using his hands.

Gee, thanks! It's nice to know I have your permission to speak... as long as I know my place, of course. This is a Bills fan page... their are editorial hot takes flying all over the place here. You come here for facts??

Thanks referee! I actually think the refs suck all around, they just tend to suck less for teams that sell a lot of jerseys and play in prime time. We're all entitled to our opinions. When you make it to the pros, be sure to bring your integrity with you!

Walt Coleman called that game I believe. I don't believe the league has it out for the Bills... my post was somewhat in jest... but I see holds, interference, helmet to helmet all the time. I do think the league favors the "good" teams (calls lean their way, benefit of doubt)... just like good pitchers get more flexible strike zones in baseball. It's the only thing that makes sense to me.

It seems to me, the refs have hated the Bills ever since the New England "just give it to them" game. Phillips and Wilson both blasted the officiating after the game as I recall. ?

Good call... the refs are sticking up for their own.

@\GoBillsInDallas/ My man! Red head this week... nice!

Which is such a different problem than "can hit the short throws but not the intermediate or deep routes". I really like Allen and hope he's the real deal. We've waited long enough!

Clowney took a year or two to hit his stride. I'm hoping Shaq is just getting started.

I was shocked to see Ramsey congratulate Allen! I'll bet that hurt the hell out of him. I'll have to give him credit for doing it though.
