  1. This game, with its multiple bad calls all going in the same direction to end the game in favor of one team, combined with Andre hearing "just give it to them" was one of the first times it became pretty clear to me that refs could throw games.
  2. Two words for you--Chris. "Toast." Watson (OK, three words). This team needs a "punt catcher", amirite? Ughh--Karlos beat me to it above--that's what I get for not reading the whole thread before posting!
  3. I agree, that's on Shanahan.
  4. I' on the fence--I live near NYC, so I only go to 1-2 games a year. The tix had been for my father, who I blame for my Bills addiction, having taken me to a game every year when I was a kid, at some sacrifice. He's been sick the last couple of years and passed away in October. The Cards game was my last good time with him. Took my daughter to the Fins season killer. Sold or gave away the other tickets. I'll figure it in the next few weeks.
  5. Funny how no flag on that play--what a shock....
  6. Are we interviewing Teryl Austin, too? That was an awful stat about 10 straight red zone TDs. Make that 11
  7. I thought the same thing--he looks like the kind of tool Belcheat would hire.
  8. Wow--Cook is awful and even when he makes a throw, his Pro Bowl receivers drop it The only hope is that O'Brien and Crennel know enough about the Cheats* to have some success against them--not that I'd count on that, but.....
  9. Has Peter King stopped his weekly "Chip Kelly Innovation of the Week" now that Kelly's been fired? He literally had a set weekly feature on Kelly and how he was going to revolutionize the game. That may tell you all you need to know about King and his recognition of great coaching. I actually like his column (minus his Cheats* knob gobbling), but I would not hold him out as someone to trust on coaching hires.
  10. You guys don't disappoint--I was watching in the delay and came here to say the exact same thing. This kid looks tankworthy, although with our luck we'd tank and he'd decide to stay in school! That was an amazing (and amazingly poised) performance, especially from a kid his age.
  11. So he's really responsible when the O he's leading is near the top of the League in points (even better I'd guess if you take away defensive and ST TD scoring) and one of the best scoring teams in Bills history? Got it. Personally, I'd look a bit harder at the other side of the ball.....
  12. Be honest--what horrible thing did Tyrod personally do to you? It really kind of seems that way to anyone following your posts on the guy....
  13. ^^^^ this. Not picking up Tyrod's option should leave us plenty of $ to help resign Gilmore, Zach/Lorax (realistically only 1) and even Woods if we want him, plus Gillislee and some depth guys (like Goodwin). We'd then need all of your above (QB obviously the biggest need), plus maybe DT to replace Kyle eventually. Need to hit all of our top draft picks....
  14. That injury looked nasty (i.e., multiple weeks).
  15. I'm just glad he's not dead--that was my first fear reading the thread title!
  16. More like a month or more in some cases--my grandfather's family spent a month there in quarantine. He had some great stories about the boat and experience --not eating bananas because they'd never seen them, thinking pumpkin pie was literally sh*t, catching lice from some old guys' beards and making his younger brother trade his nickel for my grandfather's dime (since the nickel was bigger, it must be worth more, right?) some nice American had given them each. Folks in my old predominantly Italian-American hometown also like to conviently forget that a lot of IA's also came here illegally--like my grandmother, who came in from Sicily across Lake Ontario in dead of night.
  17. How was that (or this game) on Taylor? He's been great today.
  18. Isn't that his job at heart, to scout and land talent through FA and the draft, all while balancing the cap? Absent the QB position (but I find it a little tough to fault him there, since we've never really had the chance to draft a sure fire one early) I'd say he's done a decent job on stocking the talent pool, but that may just be my opinion.
  19. A little credit to Doug Whaley for sniffing these guys out might be in order don't you think?
  20. I'd love to see side by side the Tyrod out of bounds hit with no flag and the play we just got flagged on. Complete and utter BS....
  21. He was having a flashback remembering the hold on KW on 2d down last series that wasn't called (of course).
  22. Yes--he almost got to the pitch in that Edelman end around
  23. So they call us for the hold, but not the late hit again there when Bush was on the turf--got it .....
  24. Good to see that the Cheats* brought their own refs, as usual....
