  1. until
    2018 Buffalo Bills Training Camp at St. John Fisher.
  2. Yes, especially when many 300 yard games come from a QB whose team is multiple TDs down and he has to throw on every down to try and get back in the game.
  3. I don’t remember who normally does this but: 19-0, baby!
  4. 1. They will win some games 2. They will lose some games 3. They will score some points
  5. You mean like the two players battling for the ball instead of a kickoff? That was actually kind of entertaining. He Hate Me!
  6. My experience with Safelite here on the West Coast was not good. They don't use OE standard glass.
  7. Wow, has it really been 7 years since the Bills went back to the white helmets?
  8. I know UB had a team in the MAC until this year but didn't realize Canisius had a good program.
  9. All I remember of the Bullough days, since it was prior to NFL Ticket, was seeing the halftime scores with the Bills up 14-0, 17-0, 21-0, etc. and later see final scores 14-20, 17-21, 21-24. Obviously he didn't think he needed halftime adjustments with those leads but wasn't able to in-game adjust when losing the lead. A record of 4-17 was pretty bad. Of course there was also the malaprops. My favorite was "they took the sail out of our winds"
  10. "wouldn't blame Rex for the defense regressing"??! You gotta be kidding. Not only did he change the scheme of a very good defense, he installed a complicated scheme which players had difficulty understanding and caused them to have to think too much on the field instead of just reacting. Remember the 200 yard games by opponents? His game day performances looked like he was a rookie coach. Remember the failure to challenge a play in KC "because they didn't show the replay on the board"? Rex was a buffoon and to me belongs way down at the bottom of this list.
  11. It depends on an individual's point of view. If you want to root for Vegas because they're a great story this year or whatever, that's up to you. What I took exception to in your original post was your statement calling them "our adopted team". I'm watching the Stanley Cup Finals for the 1st time in many years that doesn't involve the Sabres or Sharks. It's because of the possibility of a first year expansion team winning the Cup and I'd also like to see Ovechkin win one. For me it has nothing to do with the Raiders moving to Vegas. Yes, many Raiders fans will go to Vegas for games, just as they did after they moved to LA for a stretch. There are are many Bay Area sports fans that only root for teams on one side of the Bay. Some people who live in the East Bay root for only the Raiders and A's and despise the Giants and Niners. Others root only for the Giants and Niners. Others root for all of the teams. It's the same thing in other metropolitan areas with multiple teams like New York, Chicago and LA. So, root for whoever you want.
  12. It’ll be interesting to see how the passing game is. Tyrod made up for some O-line deficiencies with his scrambling ability but he also held onto the ball too long at times. He also didn’t make turnovers but he didn’t have many high risk throws. One thing I liked that I saw with Peterman last season in preseason and his limited regular season playing time was his making quick decisions and getting the ball out. Whoever plays QB may throw more INTs than Tyrod did, but the passing game could be more of a threat.
  13. mileena, There is no way you can tie the Golden Knights to the Bay Area, especially since we have the Sharks. Who adopted Vegas? That's the first time I've heard anyone say that. When the Raiders move to Vegas and win a Super Bowl, that will also be a stretch to call it a Bay Area Championship.
  14. Long time Warriors fan here (since 1980). The Warriors usually play a fun to watch style (lead league in assists) so I didn't understand why Steve Kerr copied the Rockets style of play in this series. There were a couple of games that were totally horrible to watch with Harden or Paul for the Rockets dribbling, running down the shot clock before making a move and the Warriors doing the same with Durant. I give credit to the Rockets defense because they were physical with Curry and Klay Thompson and didn't give them many open shots but relying on Durant's one-on-one skills was boring to watch. He then became a ball hog and wasn't even looking to pass the ball.
  15. Hmm, let's see. Fergy had longevity. He was a game manager handing off to OJ in his prime as the team had 2 winning seasons and made the playoffs once in the 70s. He was the QB for the Chuck Knox teams, winning the division in 1980 and making the playoffs in '81. Kelly was drafted in '83 to replace him and he was let go even though Kelly went to the USFL. (Dufek, Mathison, Ferragamo, Yuck!) Flutie's stay in Buffalo was a lot shorter but his teams were winners, but I think only somewhat due to him as the Defense was good. I lean towards Fergy for his many years as a Bill.
  16. Maybe the name got changed by autocorrect but who is Archie Matsos? When did he play?
  17. I like the topic. I was commenting about mileena laughing at typos with the common dumb "Who are..." The more older players, the better for salary cap purposes. ?
  18. Geez, some of you guys are so lame about typos and misspellings, especially when you consider most probably come from autocorrect.
  19. Personally, I would break a Freddie/Cribbs tie with the facts that Freddie wanted to continue with the Bills and pushed to retire as a Bill. Cribbs left on his own and then was "forced" to return when the USFL folded.
  20. until
