Buffalo blow-out Six and one sounds mighty nice playoffs are in sight

We're scrimmaging with the Steelers?

Personally, and I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one who shares this sentiment, but I don't think any of us on this board have written the Bills off after the debacle in the desert. I for one am absolutely thrilled that we are 4-1 heading into our bye week. I don't think too many of us predicted we would be. But I do believe that criticism of this team is warranted! I mean, isn't that what this board is for? To sound off with our concerns, fears, issues? Even with the wins there were some glaring things that stood out, that I, and other people so eloquently(and some not so eloquently) have stated. 1)Our offensive line - With the return of Peters, this was supposed to be the biggest strength of our team. They haven't opened up holes big enough for Calista Flockhart to run through, let alone Marshawn Lynch or Fred Jackson. I personally feel that Lynch has top 5 back potential in this league. But way, way, way too many of his meager yards have come after the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd hits. Out of every 5 running plays of his, 4 times he is met at the line of scrimmage. That is unacceptable. When we have 3rd and 1, I have to hold my breath. I think we have the 2nd largest line in the NFL. 2)QB Pressure - we haven't been able to get consistent pressure on the QB since the Seattle game. Ask yourselves, other than Kavika Mitchell's hit on Warner, did we even sniff the QB? I counted at least 7 or 8 times where Warner held the ball WAAAYY too long, and we still didn't get to him. I think once we get Mcgee and Roscoe back, they will help out our secondary and special teams immensely. But this team definitely has a few issues to work out. Like I said, I am a diehard Bills fan, have been since I was six. I am more excited about this season than I have been in a long time. But I don't think anyone has written the Bills off. If they have, they probably aren't Bills fans. I confidently predict that we will play a solid game against the Chargers, and will get the victory accordingly. Because nobody, but nobody, circles the wagons like the Buffalo Bills....

That photo is friggin AWESOME.... It gives me the chills.... GO BILLS!!!!

Greer Parrish McGee

I think Shockey would be an excellent addition to the Saints. Off field issues aside, it's hard to argue against his talent. Heck I would love to see him in a Bills uni... but that would be a good move for the saints....imo..

I think you post a very valid point, I myself have thought about his size, especially with all of us being so desperate for size at the WR position, and seeing the likes of 6'4 and 6'7 type guys available, seeing Devin Thomas at 6'2 makes you give him a 2nd thought... But the sad thing is this...He'd still be the tallest receiver on our roster...and there's no denying he's an electrifying talent with tremendous potential. That said, I don't know if I'd take him over Sweed or Hardy.

You could not have said that any better. I've been holding off on trying to schedule my vacation days waiting for this #$@%#^$ schedule to come out!

ok i take that as today is not the day, lol.

I couldn't imagine having been at that game....i probably would've just spontaneously combusted.... simply awesome it must have been..

would that be, nope, today isn't the day, or nope, you don't know?

Ahhhh yes those were the days..... Remember in the 1990 AFC championship game against the Raiders, on the Bills first TD drive, when they had drove down to the raiders 15 yard line...Hull snapped Kelly the ball, he dropped it, had time to pick it up, dust it off, and still threw the touchdown pass?? Man that was insane... *sigh* glory days....

I know it's been discussed before, please forgive if it has already been said, but i had heard that the NFL schedule was to be released today? Is that correct? I'm dying here waiting for the schedule to come out in hopes of maybe one or two Monday night games at the Ralph...I'm trying to plan my vacation around the schedule... Anyone know if today is the day? GO BILLS!!

definitely the music city miracle. i didn't talk to anyone for a week.

Dang that was a long video... Definitely has the size we covet...i agree with you i think he'd be worth a late round flyer or invite to camp at the least...

I'm gonna go out on an optimistic limb and say... The Right Stuff

I have to agree with you, I don't think Greer and McGee are the best CB tandem in the AFC East. They were definitely serviceable and played solid, but calling them the best tandem in the afc east might be a bit much. However, just about every corner Randy Moss faced got rolled up and smoked.... I think unless a player like Dorsey falls into our laps, or perhaps even taking Rivers, I think we should definitely go WR round one.

Hilarious!!!

God Bless you and stay safe fellow Bills fan!

you guys are killin me!!!

yes, I do believe on the touchdown pass to Reed it was a play action rollout.

A great win yesterday against our most hated division rival. But there is one thing that has me just a bit concerned, and that is the lack of JP's use of his wheels. I remember reading in training camps and pre-season that the coaches were MAKING him stand in the pocket and avoid the pass rush. In the 4 preseason games plus the 2 regular season games, I believe I have seen JP take off with the ball only once or maybe twice. One of his obvious strengths coming out of college was his mobility and his ability to make plays happen with his feet. While I do think that many times last year he did have a case of happy feet, I also believe that he was able to make several nice plays by taking off with the football when things broke down. I hope that the coaching staff isn't crippling JP so to speak by taking away his option to run, or even throwing in a few plays here in there designed to get him out in the open field. I think he is leaps and bounds beyond where he was last year, and I am very pleased with the job our coaching staff has done with JP and the rest of this team, I just think if we want to get Losman playing to his full potential, shouldn't we let him take off with it at least once or twice a game?? GO BILLS!!!
