  1. So who is a stud? Nice post BTW.
  2. He was still overpaid!!!
  3. In the old days when they tried for the corner, how often did the punter kick it off the side of his foot for a 20 to 25 yard kick. Too often. I believe they are just playing the odds now and avoiding that kind of result. Also, when he tries to kick for the corner, he changes his motion. Think of it like a golf shot. Same = good, different usually = bad.
  4. And for whom does the bell toll. It tolls for thee. And according to this board that means JP,TD,WM,MM,MW,LM, EM, etc, etc.
  5. You were saying Flutie??
  6. If you go to the game, its about putting asses in the seats.
  7. and if they did, what happened?
  8. Don't worry, soon the Bills will be loaded with 1st round talent.
  9. Average!!! They expected him to be BETTER than Rothensburger (sp?).
  10. What is the difference in this and Ralph giving away a couple thousand tickets and the game then being televised. I don't see one.
  11. With the Bill playing the Falcons at home, that means they are on ABC, and with CNY being Giant country, the Bills would have lost out on TV coverage if there was a conflict.
  12. Holcomb's three passes last week. If he didn't look different in preseason I would be really worried about it. Especially with JP's penchant for head first dives.
  13. It is rather interesting to see what others see and in fact what you see yourself when you go back and look at a play. I had looked at the endzone view so many times, I had forgotten there was a side view. From the side view it becomes apparent that McGahee would see two blitzers coming at him and would in fact have to make a quick decision on who to take. He was in fact between the closest blitzer and the QB. Also note that the blitzer had to rush to the inside to avoid WM as if he cut the other way, he would be slowing down and be in the way of the guy behind him. Also from the side view, it is when JP sees the 2nd blitzer that he pulls down the ball and begins to run. It is this second guy who makes the play work. I believe even if WM flattened his guy, the play outcome would have been the same. This was one very well designed and executed play. At the snap the entire defensive line moves to their right, the offensive lines left. This moves the OL to their left, which opens up the area for the blitzers to run into.
  14. Thank God it was a night game. With the magnifying glass Bledsoe is under he would probably burn up if the sun was out.
  15. I am absolutely amazed at what some people can see on a television. You must have a new version that allows you to see through a helmet and a skull.
  16. Ugliness is in the eye of the beholder.
  17. After watching Holcomb pass, I think they have to change it to the WNFL for him to start.
  18. I've seen the Bills make too many subs look good over the years. I wouldn't count this a win until it is in the books.
  19. I tried to watch the 1st down play. The running back that is deep goes to cut block the pass rusher. The line blocks the view so you cannot see exactly what is happening. Looks like he rolls on the rushers feet but not enough to stop him from jumping. I believe it is McGahee but I never did see his number clearly.
  20. I just edited out all the commercials in my copy. The second half was brutal. Must have been a commercial every 3 minutes. What the networks must love is a high scoring game. They can really pack them commercials in between the score, the point after and the kickoff.
  21. I thought the TB offensive plan was very NE like. A lot of short passes to receivers that always seemed wide open. NE would probably throw the ball downfield more. but then again, TB really did not have to. This is somewhat of what I would have seen the Bills try for the last 3 years but they can't seem to call plays like this or maybe they do and they just don't execute. Anyway, the main reason for mentioning this is we obviously play NE twice. Looks like some defense adjustments are in order.
  22. I went back and looked at the play in question. JP clearly points to one of the DB's before the snap, I am assuming he yells to someone to pick him up. WM goes to take him but the guy dodges inside and only gets chipped. If this was the only guy blitzing , the play still may have worked but another DB from further outside was also blitzing. There was also a LB blitzing who mearly got chipped but barely to the outside by I think Williams. As they blitzed on the same side JP was rolling to, it didn't leave him with much room. It was the second DB and the LB that made the play. It was either a bad offensive play call or a great defensive play call.
  23. I don't agree with the Fletcher statement. With 6 min left in the 1st quarter, TB was driving until Milloy got the sack. The were running at will at that point. Maybe later in the week others who analyse the game will take a look at the first quarter. Maybe it wasn't quite as bad but it was still there.
  24. SDS must feel like the Bills coaches. He gave someone a job to do and they quickly failed to do it.
