Well, some of them. They gave us a great oline, a decent tight end, some ok receivers, a good rb, and a 100 mill dollar prize free agent. Other than that, their other choices have something still to prove
It's sad to talk smack to other teams when your team plays poorly. I remember I saw spiller talking a little smack to some players in the new England game too.
But for all the pregame and post game speeches, that stuff is great and I love it. But talking smack during a game and your are sucking just isn't a proud moment.
I was wondering who that was yelling. I like the guy, but his football role is so small. I do get a kick when he talks smack to opposing teams. Not that it means anything, it just humours me in a sad way.
Gilmore is looking better, but I'm still worried about our defense as a whole. We played ok against a terrible offense.... So we have a lot more to prove
I havent noticed the seahawks using 3 dts and one de on rushing plays, probably because I don't know their players as well. But that seems like a good idea on rushing plays. I don't think throw Kyle, Spencer, and marcel in at the same time would make too much of a difference, but I would go for it when Spencer is healthy
And on a side note, as bad as Fitz is, I think he is the best qb we have had since bledsoe. It isn't a good endorsement considering who we have had, but still.
And I really hope we draft a qb. On offense, he is the weak link
Oh, there is plenty to complain about on this team other than Fitz
People (media) kept saying he has been making bad decisions which is a lie. He makes more good decisions than most qbs.... He just doesn't have the arm. He throws to a wide open target, which is a good decision, but he can't make the throws. At least not often enough.
If he had jp losmans arm, the guy would be great. He could manage the game (that losman couldn't do) and every now and then throw some bombs to graham or someone
In true buffalo fashion, the big name free agent/high draft pick sucks it up, and in comes the low draft pick/cast off/udfa to play well.
Moore will end the season as the bill with the most sacks. That is how this team works. The lowerend players end up outperforming the ones that are supposed to be good.
I don't think that is what he is saying. I think he is saying that since the loss was so bad, fixing just the quarterback won't fix this team.
There is something much more troubling with this team than a qb problem
No one really sticks on in the 1st round. But there are plenty of guys in rounds 2-5 that had a lot of upside. I am not asking them to draft tom Brady (though that would be nice) but draft someone better than Fitz. Fitz cannot be better than all those guys. Any improvement at the qb position would make a huge difference.
Fitz isn't the only problem on this team of course. But talent wise, he is one of the main weak links
As crappy as we are, the afc is in bad shape. Hard to count us out now. If we win only 3 games halfway through, yeah, we are out. But there is good chance an 8-8 team could get a wildcard. I can't count this team out this early.
But even if we do make the playoffs, serious things need to change
