  1. Winning 17-6 at half and everyone wants to fire the coaches. ?
  2. Every NFL game has challenges. In past history there are times when the Bills have struggled against unknown QBs. All that said, looking at the two teams the Bills should soundly defeat the Skins on Sunday. They need to stop the run and they need to score a bunch of points at home.
  3. I loved it. Got it sent to me in St Louis, always a week late but I read it cover to cover.
  4. I thought he was Timothy Leary's son.
  5. Seriously? How about designated safe space booths on the sidelines? I mean just in case fans boo and coaches yell. Dabol is doing poorly without consideration to yelling which I have never heard to be a problem. His playcalling and preparation are what is under scrutiny.
  6. I hate the thought of having to acquire a RB after letting McCoy go. Just give Singletary the ball and see what you have.
  7. I am going to the Cowboys game in Dallas. If they win it should not be difficult see, I have decent seats.
  8. Want to improve that stat? Bench Lee Smith. Another multiple penalty game for that dud.
  9. He looks like he could be. I like to see more of him. Especially in wind and rain, Gore and Singletary did not get enough carries, not even close.
  10. Agree. They listened to Brandon, big mistake.
  11. Preferring Tyrod over Allen, or any of the top 5 QBs in that draft class, says a lot about your argument, and none of it is good.
  12. Yesterdays loss has sparked a lot of negativity. A collapse would mean 8-8 and I still think we can win 10 games with this team against this schedule. Terry and Kim must be tired of making coaching changes. McD will continue to be the coach for a few more seasons at least.
  13. Age and experience must be considered but more important is the question as to whether Edmunds would be better at OLB? The age "cut-off", and i assume you were being sarcastic, is not a given for all players and all positions but I think Edmunds could take a few more years to really mature as a solid player. He does not have elite instincts but he has elite skills to offer. More than any time before we live in an impatient and results driven world.
  14. With Lorenzo retiring next year I could see the Bills looking for another MLB and moving Edmunds outside.
  15. So you want to go back to Tyrod? Tyrod was a 4 year vet and he had a more to work with. Allen was a rookie that started in week #2 of his career, with the worst OL in the league and no weapons, and he finished 5-6. He is 5--2 this year. He already has more 4th Quarter comebacks this year than Tyrod has in his career.
  16. First off we are already achieved more under McD than any team Jauron or Chan had fielded and we did that while blowing up the roster. I think we will not get to an solid team until the holes I mentioned are addressed AND we will not get to elite unless Allen develops into a real #1 QB . The talent we have right now is at a Wild Card Playoff Team level, just like about 12 other teams, so anything can happen on any week with any of the teams at this level. There will be highs and lows, good weeks and bad. We just had our first really bad game and people are losing their minds. I get it, you don't like the coach, you don't like the GM, you are not happy with the rebuild, and you want an elite team in 2.5 years. We are not that, we are a work in progress with a 5-2 record against an easy schedule. I sure don't know who to hire to get to that level in 2 to 3 years. Not sure that even Bellichik could do it, he tried at Cleveland and NYJ and he did not do it. At New England, he inherited a strong roster from Parcells and they drafted Brady in round 6. So even the best ever has not met your desires.
  17. I think the strategy is fine, the implementation can be scrutinized but I think this is a four year rebuild. Beane has had two drafts so far.
  18. Yes, a long list indeed.
  19. Really? Compare his record to any QB since Kelley.
  20. Just keep on posting then. Sorry, couldn’t resist an opening like that. To me I see more good than bad. He leads, he wins. Give the kid a few play makers, some better tackles, and some more experience.
  21. I’ve been watching them since 64-65. Long time. I finally reached the point where I am not raving mad over a game like this. The Eagles are better. Their coaching staff won an super Bowl. The Eagles came out angry and straightened out their ship. It happens. We are 5-2 and fortunate to have played some patsies. I just want to take advantage of an easy schedule, watch the young guys develop and hopefully gain some playoff experience. My expectations are no higher for this season. Super Bowl, no division, no home playoff game, not yet. Just win 10 and get in. We have holes all over this roster. We still need help at OT, WR, DL, and a legit 2CB. We are also thin at RB and LB, Lorenzo and Gore will be retiring. Another draft and a few FA pickups will get us closer, all assuming that Allen continues developing. Relax everyone.
  22. Yes right, most 20 year olds just jump right in and make the Pro Bowl at MLB.
  23. Like most MLBs Edmunds needs our DTs to absorb blockers to allow him to get to the runner. He he is going to get stronger and better with age and experience. We lost, they ran on us, we ran into an angry team that is better than us. Now is not the time to quit and assign blame. Now is the time to learn and get better.
  24. We were due for this. The better talented team won today. As stated, we have been fortunate with our schedule. We will see what the staff and players are made of. They need to rebound. We are about were I expected us to be. 5-2 is a good situation fir Buffalo. My concerns are: 1. Daboll play calling and Allen not getting passing yards against a very poor backfield. 2. Inability to adapt to weather and wind at home. Very unBills-like. They need to make this an advantage. 3. Defense against the run 4. Poor special teams. Need to move on and get a W next week.
  25. They have great uni’s with the Blue shirt, white pants. Time to stop this weird stuff ... and get off my lawn.
