  1. Not to hijack this thread, but our front 4 played really well. Mario was really pressuring, Dareus had some good plays finally, KyleW was his usual self and even Merriman, Moore were in on the action. Also props to Gilmore for largely containing Hartline
  2. ... and more cosmetic surgeons.
  3. Too often we get caught up in term of 'franchise QB'. That term can cover a range of QBs. The best will be the likes of Brady, Rodgers, Mannings. The next (slightly lower tier) are guys like Flacco, Matt Ryan who though not as good as the topmost tier, can still be defined as 'franchise QBs'. In our desire to look for the former, let us not overlook what the latters bring to the table. IMHO, a Flaccco or Ryan can be more than adequate to take this team to the promised land. If we hold out for the next prospects most similar to Luck and RGIII, we could be waiting a real long time. All the while letting season after season slip away with the slavish adherence to BPA
  4. You say that as if its a bad thing.
  5. On the play that ended the game, we were short on time and timeouts. If CJ gets tackled, precious time comes off the clock. Throwing to the EZ was the correct call. If it was an INC, still have another chance. Who to throw to and which route the WRs ran is another matter. But throwing in that situation was the correct call.
  6. I wish someone would predict a win for us. Oh what the hay, might as well be me (being homerish and all that). I predict an ugly game but a victory for the Bills.
  7. Its called press coverage - something which the kid does very well. Unfortunately, Wanny insists on having him play with a cushion which leaves the young one exposed but still he has done very well. One of his PI penalties was totally BS - this is one of those calls which others are screaming about in the anti-refs thread on this board. The side effect of this call was his doubting himself which was apparent when he defended another pass and almost automatically looked at the ref to see if he was going to be flagged. The kid seems to be learning fast and needs to be allowed to play the physical style which is his forte
  8. Just got the text that Gailey announced FJax will not play. Probably to check out the concussion and to play it safe.
  9. Then props to Simon
  10. You have to admit he got the 'mindless' part right
  11. Just a reminder- you said a couple of posts back that you were leaving
  12. the refs really have it against us today. and I normally dont complain about officiating
  13. Great block by CJ on that last pass play to Chandler.
  14. Wow, I am seriously not awake this morning . what a friggin' brain f*** on my part. Thanx for waking me up.
  15. I am fully on board with this thought. We do not have the luxury of not upgrading the QB position this year and do not want to look at the lower rounds to hope we find a diamond in the rough. Take the QB even if he may not be BPA. While I agree with your sentiment, Miami wanted Tannehill. If anybody, we would have had to trade with the Jags
  16. Not sure I am excited just yet but hope as hell he does well. Also, we are now down to McKelvin, Rogers and Brooks as CBs. McK we know much of but I am excited to see what the other two do with this opportunity as both flashed potential off and on but will be seriously tested today.
  17. A Williams T Jackson M Silva K Morrison T Welch C Kelsay M Anderson A little thin on the DE corps I see....
  18. Skyfall turned to out to be true to all the positive ratings it has garnered. Excellent movie with superb acting all around. This is old school Bond from the early Connery days - light on gadgets and gimmicks, heavy on story and drama. I absolutely loved it. If you have to find a flaw, I would say it could be trimmed by 15 minutes as the 2:23 running time gets a tad (just a tad) too long. I would highly recommend it.
  19. Show at 9.45 got sold out at 9.30. In line for the 10.30. Havent stood in line for a movie in ages. Will let you guys know what I think tomorrow.
  20. I also vote for shutting this thread down. Hurting a player is never warranted especially when defenseless. We are not a bunch of thugs on this board or on the field. This is a game and a sport - that is all it is. Wishing harm on a player is classless to say the least. In real life also, occasionally I feel mad at someone but I wish that person would get the fruits of his/her bad acts - I don't wish for that person to get mugged and clobbered in a neighborhood alley. Showing we have balls is to sack him, intercept him and beat his team. Some of you guys are unbelievable. Lock this thread.
  21. Casper, our mutt. Westie, 6 years old later this month
  22. This may be the proverbial end of the line for McGee. I always liked him but was oft-injured. Don't the above moves leave two net open roster spots ? Or did I miss some other move ? Especially if Potter has been released for no medical reason.
  23. Anytime. Plenty to choose from here these days.
  24. Add LiterateStylish to this list. Stat. http://forums.twobillsdrive.com/topic/152232-bill-polian-on-fitzpatrick-he-sucks/
