  1. I agree, he would get us AT LEAST two 1st round picks.
  2. I started channel surfing after the debate, first MSNBC, where I couldn't take Palin did great Buchannan vs Palin sucked Maddow. Then it was on to FOX News & CNN. On FOX News they had a group of undecided voters. They asked the group who won the debate. Most raised their hands for Palin. On CNN they had a group of undecided voters. They asked the group who won the debate. Most raised their hands for Biden. At that point I couldn't take it anymore & turned off the post debate spin.
  3. One of the reasons I can't stand QB rating stats & even QB TD stats is because a QB gets more TD passes if he passes on X & goal than if he hands off to a RB at the end of a long drive. A QB who orchestrates a TD drive of 80 yards isn't any better because he threw on 2nd & 2 and scored a TD than if he handed off to the RB for a rushing TD. Yet, his QB rating and TD % is better. There are so many other situations that reflect in ratings such as a receiver having a pass bounce off his hands into a CB's hands for an int or even as we have seen this year against Oakland where the DB wrestles the ball away from the receiver and the QB gets an INT. Another thing stats don't take into account is if the #s are done vs creampuff defenses, or rock solid ones. That's why people who religiously (nothing to do with Jesus, RL) follow QB stats usually can be found wearing a straight jacket in a room with padded walls.
  4. One is in Colorado & one is in California, so when they have the western division championship of convict football, they may be playing each other.
  5. Anyone who thinks Kurt Warner is a top 10 QB of all time loses all credibility. Tell me this: Will Warner be in the Hall of Fame? The answer is no, he won't be in the Hall of Fame. Any player who is a top 10 QB of all time is a 1st ballot Hall of Famer. Kurt Warner is not! Jim Kelly isn't even a top 10 QB of all time and he was a 1st ballot Hall of Famer. Have you ever seen Kurt Warner up close? He has a fundamental problem that he has never been able to overcome-he holds on to the ball too long and does not always sense the pass rush well-that's why he can become a turnover machine like in the 1st half of the Jets game. When he has time in the pocket, Kurt Warner can be as good as any QB. It's when there is the inevitable defender who gets through that throws Warner completely off his game. Just looking at the 1st half of last week's game and you see why Warner is more erratic than any top 10 QB.
  6. That's 9 home games counting playoffs. I found a good substitute (since I live a lot closer to Foxboro than Toronto): I'm going to watch the Bills beat New England in Foxboro for the 1st time since 2000. Then, since 10 games aren't enough, I'm going to see the Bills final game of the season, Super Bowl XLIII. Correction: I'm missing the 49ers game so I'll only make 10 games total.
  7. For the same reason we were underdogs at Jacksonville: We're on the road. The bettors underestimate us.
  8. Kiffin's $ are significantly more than Shanahan's. A good lawyer will get a judge to order seizure of something Davis owns and make Davis pay all court costs and all legal fees. Also a good judge will jail Davis for contempt if he doesn't comply with a court order. Don't go to the NFL, go to court. Go get him, Lane.
  9. That's before he realized that the nightlife & women in Buffalo are better than in Baltimore. Then he decided to stay in Miami for Spring Break.
  10. Davis is not senile! He knows what he's doing. Why is it that when anyone who is Davis' age says something that younger people disagree with, they declare him senile? Do you know what Davis is suffering from? -79 years of power and arrogance, thinking he can say or do anything he wants to and get away with it-that's a far cry from senility. Plenty of younger people act the same way-you can find a lot of them in Washington, DC.
  11. This coaching staff was also well ahead of the curve on the most important position on the team-Quarterback. They saw that Trent Edwards was a special player in camp last year and recognized that he was the long term answer. Now even though I've disparaged JP many times, most just in anger over the JP is better than Trent reactions of other posters last year & some still through pre-season, this staff realized that while JP may be a decent NFL QB, good enough to start somewhere else, if you have the opportunity to replace good with great, you do it every time. Two things I see from the QB decision. 1)Trent would have been the starter this year whether JP had gotten hurt or not last year in NE. 2) The staff feels that if Trent were to go down, JP is capable enough to keep this year's team going forward. They did not go out and sign a Cleo Lemon for big backup $ when they could have done something like this & just dump JP. I've always said that the coaches (yes even Gregg Williams & Mike Mularkey) see these players every day & know a lot more about them than any of us and to question their decisions to the point of being angry at them is done so from a position of ignorance-no matter how close one follows the team. Not giving a young player more playing time usually means the guy isn't ready yet or the guy above him on the depth chart is better at this point and gives the team a better chance to win now.
  12. I was thinking something along the same lines. Taking away the Bills games and the opponents are 4-7. Take away the dreadful Rams & the opponents are 4-4. The Jags & Seahawaks will make the playoffs. However, we do have a creampuff schedule since the only other sure playoff team we'll play is San Diego, with Denver, who should be 1-3 instead of 3-1, and the Jets also possibilities. Put a fork in NE, they're not going anywhere with Matt Cassell.
  13. Were you the ones who put the Psycho Ward 86 banner up at the Steelers/Ravens game that was shown on Monday Night Football?
  14. Ralph tried this with Wade & it didn't work. When they get to court, Davis will say he was fired for insubordination. When Davis is asked his definition of insubordination and he says that Kiffen wouldn't sign a letter of resignation after he demanded he do so, the judge will not only rule in Kiffin's favor, but will make Davis pay all court costs and attorney fees as well.
  15. I'd like it to be the edition right after the Super Bowl, with him holding the Lombardi Trophy.
  16. Yes, and he doesn't look much different than when he played with the Bills. He has Trent up to #2 for MVP.
  17. I didn't know Kelly Bundy grew up, dyed her hair, moved to Alaska & became Governor. When you put one fact into Kelly Bundy's brain another fell out, like the time they put so many prep facts into her brain, when they asked her about Al's football career at Polk High, the memory had been pushed out of her brain.
  18. We'll just have to wait for the Super Bowl to play a top team.
  19. Movin' on up. 1) NY Giants 2) Tennessee 3) Dallas 4) BUFFALO BILLS "The Fred Jackson story never gets old." 5)Pittsburgh 6)Philadelphia 7) San Diego 8) Washington 9)Denver 10)Carolina 11) Tampa Bay 12)Indianapolis 13)New England 14) Green Bay 15) Jacksonville 16)New Orleans 17 )Chicago 18)NY Jets 19) Baltimore 20) Minnesota 21) Arizona 22) Seattle 23)San Francisco 24)Atlanta 25) Miami 26)Cleveland 27) Houston 28)Kansas City 29) Oakland 30) Cincinnati 31) Detroit 32)St. Louis
  20. Yep, it's time for everyone to calm down: 4 PM 4:30 PM 5 PM 5:30 PM 6 PM 6:30 PM WRGB CBS 6 NFL Football BUFFALO @ ARIZONA WRGB-DT CBS 6.1 NFL Football BUFFALO @ ARIZONA http://www.cbs6albany.com/sections/tvlistings/
  21. Not even close. I went game by game before the season started & came up with the Eagles as a totally unbiased pick. My NFC team is the Giants because I grew up on Long Island & live in Giants country.
  22. Who cares? We're winning the division & going for home field.
  23. Barnes Parrish Fine Omon Corner Bell Ellis Hamdan Schouman is starting TE
  24. I wonder if ex-Bill Jim Haslett will get the coaching gig.
