    For any other QB that would’ve been a drop or INT but Brady gets the miracle catch

     

    Really? I see those catches made every week. It's a 50/50 ball. Diggs had one of those against the Raiders.

     

    That wasn't unusual nor was it anything that every other team doesn't do when they have a 1 on 1 matchup with a good WR. Great box out and better catch.

     

    Guess Aikman's ridiculous rant about him losing confidence in his ability to catch got shot down

    Agreed. Not scared of Watkins as an individual, but he adds another dimension to that offense when he's healthy and motivated. His size and speed combo would have been a tough cover for Norman or Wallace.

     

    Another guy that's out for them is RT Mitchell Schwartz who actually got hurt in our Week 6 match up in the first quarter I believe. He's probably their best O-lineman when healthy. This is a huge redemption game for our defensive line, we need to dominate the LoS. 

     

    So much has changed since that game...since Harrison Phillips has been back in and playing regularly, our run D has been hugely improved, actually one of the best in the NFL.

    IMO, Watkins has always possessed tremendous talent that has never consistently manifested on the field. The fact is that he is receiver with a career 58 catch percentage who struggles to stay on the field. I had no problem when they decided to let him go and I have no personal animosity toward him. I have more of an issue with Whaley for what he gave up to get Watkins, than I do with Watkins himself for not living up to the expectations that came with it.

     

    After seeing his performance last year in the playoffs I would much rather not see him today. When he is on, he has the ability to take over the game. We saw it here a few times, notably against KC where he caught 3 TDs in the first half I believe.

    Same here. By no means do I want to lose Frazier. But if I had to choose either him or Daboll, I’d choose Frazier.

     

    McDermott made his name as a defensive coordinator, and I think we have some really good in house candidates to be DC already - like Eric Washington and John Butler. 
     

    If Frazier is hired I just hope he doesn’t raid the Bills coaching staff to fill his. He has tons of connections around the NFL though. It’s not like he needs to hire Bills coaches. 

     

    Bills don't have to allow anyone to go for a non head coaching position.

    Since 1980.........

     

    #2's that beat #1's...........

     

    86 Broncos over Cleveland

    94 Chargers over Steelers

    01 Patriots over Steelers

    04 Patriots over Steelers again

     

     

    Brady and BB did that a lot.

     

    I remember a regular season game against a run-stingy Vikings team where something like their first 34 plays were passes.

     

    Yeah I know they did but I seem to remember that was kind of maybe the first time they unveiled it and it took the announcers by shock doing the game.

    In 2004 Pittsburgh was the #1 seed and New England was the #2 seed.

     

    New England went into Pittsburgh and whacked them, 41-27

     

    Wasn't that the game that Brady just dropped back and passed almost every play and Pittsburgh seemed almost helpless on defense to stop them?

     

    Seems like that was the first time ever a team simply just said, "OK, we aren't even going to try and run the ball, we like our matchups in the passing game" and now the Bills do that routinely...

     

    And guess who was the WR coach on that Patriot team?

    Frankly, given what I know of this poster's history, I have some doubts about the existence of said tickets vs. a need for attention.

     

    But I gave him the benefit of doubt, connected him up with guys who couldn't PM etc.

     

    If the tickets exist, hope they found good homes at a fair price and GO BILLS!

     

    I really hope this post didn't cause people who wanted to buy the tickets to change their mind and end up with him stuck with the tickets.

     

    I have to say given you being a mod on this board that was a pretty crap move on your part.
