Bleed Bills Blue

Ah yes, Jauron is crazy alright, crazy like a fox...a mangey, skin-and-bones, flea-infested fox.

Hell, he hardly fits in his uniform.

...and having already missed one FG attempt from the right hash mark, numb nutz runs the play to the same side, rather than the center of the field. Week after week, year after year...please just go away, Dick.

I plan to have several shots before the game.

But at the end of the day we'll have more points, so who cares?

You forget we beat the Pats* opening night...course, that was a moral victory...

Oops.

Very refreshing, indeed...with a cool dash of swagger sprinkled in.

Yes, this is the key. All the more so with the rain and 4:00 start.

Whoa, there's a game today??

Boo McKelvin?? Hell, we cheered Scottie Norwood after SB XXV.

Well then, those of us at the game need to give them a big Buffalo welcome!

Would have been fascinating to see what AVP would have called in that sitch. In the past I'd guess maybe only a 10% chance we pick up the first because of Commander Cautious, but last night...who knows? Higher, for sure. Would have loved the chance to find out. And, yeah, mayber 20% for the second half if we didn't.

A Bills fan should always take the long-term view. No blowout tonight. I think we'll play them tough. Hard to win, though, with a head coach who places effort ahead of victory.

Well done, got any tinglies about how Monday Night is gonna turn out?

Yeah, and I'd love to see it, too. But you've got to think-Brady's first game back, with a national audience...well, let's just say I expect to see a lot of holding against us that might somehow get overlooked by the refs.

Haha, yes and only fire can destroy the great evil created by the Dark Lord Jauron. This task was appointed to you, Frodo Van Pill, and if you do not find a way, no one will.

Ha ha, and May the force bin with him!

Huh, you would think he feels his boss is happy with his performance and that his job is safe...

Sadly, this seems to be evident all too often. Also, I think he's a harder target for a qb to find down the field, and I'm not sure he can fight for the ball against a bigger, physical defender. You'd have to think he's earned himself some playing time this year with his continued development and performance this preseason. Let's hope Hardy gets healthy and proves you wrong! And, yeah, I'm gonna let myself enjoy this Maybin flavored Kool-Aid fer awhile, it tastes pretty good!!

Sure, it's preseason, but things are awfully reminiscent of last preseason...you remember, when Dick announced (after the last preseason game, I think) that he wished the O had more time to get ready. Well, he's had an extra game this year, but things appear to be even worse. Monday Night Football, featuring the Not Ready For Prime Time Bills...uggh. I guess this is the consistency we were promised. I think the D will be fine, though, and the silver lining I see is if TO makes the kind of difference we think he can. If he delivers I think we could be just a slightly below average offense. Along with a slightly better than average defense this team just might achieve...ummm....a 7-9 record?

"The most deceiving stat of this NFL preseason is Buffalo’s league-leading completion percentage — 91 of 129 (.711)..." Thing is, I can't figure out who's catching all those passes!?! "It’s not a good sign when your three QBs have passer ratings of 96.7, 90.1 and 46.9 — in reserve order of where they appear on the depth chart." Ouch. "The most encouraging stat for the Bills is rush defense. They’ve allowed only 2.7 yards per carry." Without some semblance of an offense, though, their efforts will be wasted again this year. Let's hope TO is the key in the ignition of this wreck project. http://php.democratandchronicle.com/blog/sportsx/

I know you meant to include him: http://www.raiders.com/Team/CoachBio.aspx?id=16972

God love him, but he can never remember the second half of that Lombardi quote.

I thought so, too. A couple of extra holding penalties every game would be nice, even if he doesn't actually get to the qb. What do we really have to lose? Ha, the dark Lord Jauron will now put Maybin back in his box and place him on a shelf in the locker room for the season...
