Rubes

The Cowboys were a popular pick for division champs and going deep into the playoffs. The Giants went into Dallas for the opener and handled them pretty well. One bad decision away from beating the Cowboys in their home stadium on national TV. I can see why they would think this is an easier, or at least similar, task. And I agree, I think they can definitely beat us in this one. I'm worried, especially if we don't have Sammy or Shady.

I saw that, and I was equally impressed. I thought for a second I must have missed his other hand, but nope.

I don't get why some are so confident against the Giants. They handled Dallas in the opener on the road, and are just a few bad decisions away from being 3-0 right now. This will be a tough game.

I can only think of two he'd probably want to have back. One was a high throw early in the game that was tipped and almost intercepted; the other was the overthrow to the left to Clay that would have been a nice 15-20 yarder. Really, not much else I can think of. The thing I like watching him is how totally comfortable he seems, at least when not pressured. Even when pressured, he seems under control. I also like how effortless it seems he can flick the ball way downfield.

This is the first time in years that I feel like I almost expect a first down when it's 3rd-and-long. God I can't stand that ass.

I'm surprised we aren't seeing the kind of play where Taylor fakes the handoff and bootlegs to one side with a TE out in front, giving him the option of throwing or running. Seems like it would be almost unstoppable with Taylor as QB.

This promises to be a fun ride.

If you don't think "they can have him back as far as I'm concerned" is not a conclusion, then I don't know what to tell you. Judging the overall return on a player investment after two games is not a conclusion? Sure, got ya. Just the "facts" after two games.

I think the quality of our offensive line play this week will dictate the outcome of this one...

I'm glad you've concluded all of that after two games. Well done.

Jags got 123 against them on Sunday. I also like that the Fins only had 42 yards rushing themselves.

Have there been new rumors or stories on this?

Hmm, I never thought of it that way, with the chance of losing a point if you don't make it. I like that idea.

I noticed on Carpenter's miss that the ball was snapped from the left hashmark. Later in the game, after another Bills TD, it was the same thing. Earlier, I had noticed that the Pats*** were kicking their XP from the middle of the field. What's the rule on this? I thought every XP would be snapped from the middle of the field, as always.

Niiiiice!

There is virtually no chance the Bills will win this one. Why? Because everybody outside of NE wants us to crush them so very badly. Because the Bills deserve to win, because good should always defeat evil, and the Pats*** are as evil as they come. But as George R. R. Martin tells us, “There are no heroes...in life, the monsters win.”

This could not be stated any more perfectly.

Just the angle of the shot, I believe. I heard it was just the tip of his thumb.

Love that guy.

You might also say, "now we'll see what we have in our offensive line."

From SI.com: Sabres superprospect Jack Eichel looks like the real deal They stole my headline!

This was freaking hilarious. My voice is still coming back to me. I love that feeling.

Cue the Whaley haters ragging on the trade. But wait, does that mean Fred's release wasn't because Whaley was trying to save face?

Joe Buscaglia @JoeBuscaglia This throw by #Bills QB Tyrod Taylor is the one that defined his game vs the Colts for me. This is on 3rd-and-8. pic.twitter.com/e9z3cUk1iW A link to the video on twitter. Great throw by Tyrod as he takes a shot. Why does he take a shot? Because McCoy whiffs completely on the blitzing safety, instead driving his shoulder directly into Incognito. Not that it means anything, I just thought it was amusing to see him completely miss like that. Of course, that could haunt us in the future if he keeps that up.

Man, you got that right. The Devils players just didn't seem like the same level of competition. Never really provided much of a threat.
