  1. His game was off yesterday but I am not yet concerned. He played three very good games. I think we should have come out with a balanced attack running FJax more than we did. By going pass heavy in the first half, it put a lot of pressure on the Oline and Fitz. As our OL is not very good (first three games were not stellar defenses and Fitz/Gailey were masking deficiencies), this plan failed. The fact that we were up at half time was a good thing. Every player is going to have some less than stellar games. Hope this was Fitz's bad game and not a trend. We will see how it goes but I am not yet concerned. If anything it shows that we (still) need a couple of OLinemen, a WR and a good CB.
  2. Bills lose by 3, season record 3-1 Jets lose by 17, season record 2-2
  3. Football instincts - he ain't got them. We will see what happens when McGee and AWilliams get back but I think the rookie will get more playing time to see what we have in him.
  4. I am not defending Edwards. What I said is that we were bad today but if it wasnt for those calls, we would have been beaten fairly and squarely. Because as badly as we were playing, we were still in a position to win the game - at least a couple of times.
  5. George Edwards We did not play well today but considering the number of yards we gave up, we managed to stay close. No team is at the top of their game every week. Having said that, two calls cost us the game - the first down call and the ruling against Stevie Johnson. I dont know how it works, but I hope we are writing to the NFL for an explanation or to file a complaint. If it wasnt for those calls, I would say we were outplayed and would have been at peace with our loss.
  6. We run more than in 1st half. Will score more than 30 (as usual) and win big. Dalton will be replaced in late 3rd quarter
  7. I am a die hard Bills fan i Chicago-land. And I don't like the Bears. I root for the Packers when they play the Bears. Am I a traitor ? Frankly, I don't care. You may be normal otherwise, but IMHO your fandom is kinda suspect if you can also support a division rival.
  8. So is that an article or a real quote ? If true, I would challenge Lewis to the other side of the equation. Every guarantee has a payback if not delivered. What will he do ? Shave his head ?
  9. Just a date and time setting issue. Not to worry
  10. Doesn't matter what others say. You said it and now are implicitly supporting it. The Bills played a solid game and did not cave in. In crunch time, the Pats* did not manage the game and caused key turnovers. This is most likely due to the constant pressure that the Bills were applying. And by pressure I don 't mean defenders getting close to Brady. It was a combination of things . Good D push, the constant leaping, the lack of ability to run, aggressive coaching, smart ingame decisions and the Bills O which kept coming back and scoring. If anything, the pats* handled this situation badly.
  11. Fortunate ?? Are you serious ? You are not saying it, but are you implying that we were lucky that Brady threw 4 INTs ?
  12. While not blitzing was not at all surprising (and the strategy was as I expected). However, this week I see us blitzing for the first time this season. Dalton is raw and he has to prove that he can beat the blitzes. Expect to see a lot of disguised ones in the beginning to see what the kid can do. If he starts going down, then we will send all out blitzes. I don't expect Dalton to crack 100 yard passing this week. (sticking my neck way out on this one)
  13. History will recall this game as the one that began a 10 year domination of the Pats* by the Bills
  14. Brady is critical to the Pats* success as most great QBs are. Probably he is not as important to the Pats* as PManning is to the Colts. But, somewhere Brady must be thinking that if he gets injured, he will get Bledsoed by Mallett and may never see the field again as a Patriot*.
  15. The Raiders' beatdown of the Jests puts our win in perspective. We held off a pretty good football team, and held McFadden in check. The more I see these results, the better our performance looks thus far.
  16. Most of you know this but feels good to see it on the billboard: http://www.nfl.com/standings #1 (shared) record #1 in Points For #1 in TDs And, if it comes down to that, our three wins have been conference wins - a big plus later in the season. This win will probably hurt the Pats* more than they realize right now. EDIT: Sorry for duplicate post . mods please delete or merge with Scrappy's
  17. Are you kidding me ? If it wasn't for Brady's 4 interceptions, a phantom PI call this team would have lost today. The Pats just had an off day today. See what happens next week and get back to me.
  18. They should borrow ieatcrayonz from us
  19. Floyd fan here. For those too lazy to search: http://www.youtube.com/user/OfficialPinkFloyd
  20. If we win, this 3-0 is going to feel a lot like 8-0 considering we beat increasingly difficult opponents including a consensus SB team
  21. I think Dareus+ Williams > whoever the Chargers and Dolphins have Actually, I think it did hurt them. I did not watch the entire game but SD was done in by their 4 turnovers
  22. When we are on O - He will want to take away the long runs and force Fitz to throw. He may blitz initially to see how the OL and Fitz respond. We need to pick up the early blitzes and burn them. Else we will see them all day long. He may try to confuse Fitz with different D looks but for the first time in several years I have confidence that our QB and OC both wont be fazed by such apparent trickery. When we are on D - Brady will do what he does best. Go pass heavy in the beginning while challenging McK and Wilson. Gron will be heavily involved as well. Folks, if the Pats* are leading by more than 14 at the half, we are hosed. They are not the Raiders. We cannot let this game get out of hand. Keep up with them and pull it out in the 4Q.
  23. Actually I was not commenting on the rights or wrongs of that policy. I just read that it was twitter's policy to not allow selling of handles. But, wtf do I know about twitter ?
  24. And somewhere, Pats* fans are screaming that Cowherd is a d-bag and that the Pats* still get no respect from the media
