  1. Depressing. Didn't think my view on Wanny could sink any lower. Chan definitely needs a bad cop foil.

     

    Hates the blitz. Poor play calling in the second half.

     

    And now, according to the reporter, unimaginative, not inspirational, ineffectual, bad teller of stories and a poor user of props.

     

    Wonder what his bright spots are.

     

    He's Chan's friend.

  2. Oh, I thought the board was for football discussion and opinion. Then how many quarts are in a liter?

     

    Do you need some help with that stick, or do you like it up there?

     

    While Potter's kickoffs haven't all been touchbacks lately, you can see why the Bills have him when Lindell can barely reach the 5 yard line.

  3. Wait, let me get this straight.

    Wilson goes 9 of 23 (that's 39% completion) for 120 yds and 1 INT in a loss and we're all lovin' on how impressive he is and he can make all the throws?

    Fitz goes 16 of 26 (that's 61.5% completion) for 126 yds and 1 INT in a loss and he sucks, has no sense of urgency, and is just unwatchable?

     

    Yeah, because throwing for 1230 yds, 7 INTs and 8 TDs in 6 games is so much better than throwing for 1210 yds, 8 INTs, and 12 TD.

     

    It's not that I'm dissing on Wilson or saying Fitz has played well. I'll give any rookie the benefit of the doubt, and Fitz has struggled.

     

    But similar results make Fitz unwatchable and Wilson impressive? Bah.

     

    One is an 8 year veteran. The other is a ROOKIE. Good lord.

  4. Spot on. They are going to draft one next year, and they will be tied to that guy.

     

    They get to draft one of their own. Fitz and Edwards were what Gailey and Nix found lying around when he arrived.

     

    The current trajectory of this season (8-8, 9-7, maybe 10-6) will not get either Nix or Gailey fired. 7-9 or worse might cost Gailey his job but it would take at least that bad, even though I would be badly disapointed with less than 9-7.

     

    So you think drafting a QB next year will buy them 3 more years or so? They could've drafted one in the previous 3 drafts...They chose not to draft one. They made their bed and now must lay in it.

  5. I've been one of those calling for him to touch the ball 2-3 per game instead of once every 2-3 games.

     

    It doesn't seem like a big deal but many teams use the fullback as an occasional changeup to keep the defense honest and CMac is a load to bring down.

     

    He catches and runs well… witness the poor safety who tried tackling him on his one touch yesterday. CMac bounced up after the tackle like Jerome Bettis used to while the DB had to let the hurt slowly ooze out of his body.

     

     

     

    I think it might be wise to give him a few touches just for this reason. He knocked that dude silly...The Bills need to be the one dropping the hammer, not receiving it!
