Guest dog14787 Posted August 20, 2010 Posted August 20, 2010 We finally gave Tim some good things to say about the Buffalo Bills http://espn.go.com/blog/afceast/post/_/id/...ills-in-toronto
The Dean Posted August 20, 2010 Posted August 20, 2010 It's a blog and I'll give the guy a typo. But add this to the list, too: Bills coach Chan Gailey said of the sequence: "I have never anything less would happen to be honest with you. All of our guys have moxie. You've got to have moxie to play quarterback in this league. I was impressed with that, really impressed with it. I asked after he got hit 'Are you OK?' He didn't even flinch. ... I think he's a tough guy." Did Chan really say ""I have never anything less would happen..."?
RuntheDamnBall Posted August 20, 2010 Posted August 20, 2010 Did anyone understand this Chan quote? "I have never anything less would happen to be honest with you. " (apparently re: Trent's bouncing back from a rough hit.) Edit: beat me to it, Dean.
timba Posted August 20, 2010 Posted August 20, 2010 "I never thought anything less would happen to be honest with you." Is what I see up there. Did it change?
Simon Posted August 20, 2010 Posted August 20, 2010 I have never <(thought/expected)>anything less would happen to be honest with you
The Dean Posted August 20, 2010 Posted August 20, 2010 "I never thought anything less would happen to be honest with you." Is what I see up there. Did it change? Yes, it looks as though both typos have been fixed.
AxelRipper Posted August 20, 2010 Posted August 20, 2010 I havent watched the game, but i'm going to have to after reading this: The Bills' defense gave Peyton Manning some problems. He completed 8 of 15 passes for 91 yards and one touchdown with one interception. His 66.3 passer rating was less than half of Edwards'. This can't be the Buffalo Bills they're talking about... we must have found a wormhole
Zulu Cthulhu Posted August 20, 2010 Posted August 20, 2010 This can't be the Buffalo Bills they're talking about... we must have found a wormhole Let's not get all shatty in our panties yet...but the improvement from the first to the second game was significant.
Guest dog14787 Posted August 20, 2010 Posted August 20, 2010 Let's not get all shatty in our panties yet...but the improvement from the first to the second game was significant. Yes it was significant and against a team that played in the big dance a season ago,
C.Biscuit97 Posted August 20, 2010 Posted August 20, 2010 Let's not get all shatty in our panties yet...but the improvement from the first to the second game was significant. If you overreact to the first game, you exposed yourself as a moron anyways. By the logic some displayed last week, the Bills are going to the SB now that they beat the Colts.
Jim in Anchorage Posted August 20, 2010 Posted August 20, 2010 If you overreact to the first game, you exposed yourself as a moron anyways. By the logic some displayed last week, the Bills are going to the SB now that they beat the Colts. Buzz killer.
Just Jack Posted August 20, 2010 Posted August 20, 2010 Let's not get all shatty in our panties yet...but the improvement from the first to the second game was significant. It's the Toronto air.
eball Posted August 20, 2010 Posted August 20, 2010 If you overreact[ed] to the first (or second) game, you exposed yourself as a moron anyways. THIS.
Chandler#81 Posted August 20, 2010 Posted August 20, 2010 I take umbrage with TG's comment about Maybin. This is the second time in 6 days he played the whole game. He's getting the reps with the D Jauron would simply not allow. It's his first pre-season and I suspect he'll be starting @ OLB vs. Miami. Freak speed and experience. Not a bad combo. But what do I know..
K Gun Special Posted August 20, 2010 Posted August 20, 2010 I take umbrage with TG's comment about Maybin. This is the second time in 6 days he played the whole game.

But what do I know.. Really? maybin ran with the backups and only got garbage time play. he wasnt making plays against the backups. Just dancing around after he made tackles downfield. looked foolish to me. Not encouraging.
hammie65 Posted August 20, 2010 Posted August 20, 2010 Two more games to improve, two more to build upon, two more to solidify as a team. The pieces aren't perfect but this team can win if they can weather injuries and effectively gel as a unit on offense and defense, and Gailey and his staff MUST game plan effectively (something DJ and crew rarely did). If they do, our record will be better than expected. The Pats have holes (like if they don't re-sign Mankins), the Jets are without Revis and WITH Sanchez, and the Dolphins are a question mark like us. Nobody knows the future but I believe my expectations should be moderate (not horrible) up until about four or five games into the season and we know where we stand. How many teams like the Pats, Colts, or others are an injury or two away from being bad (Brady, Moss, Manning, Wayne, etc)? Anything can happen to any team so hope springs eternal. P.S. Spiller will be a star in this league someday and I just bought a Lynch jersey. Call me crazy!
Doc Posted August 20, 2010 Posted August 20, 2010 The game was encouraging, but the real test is the real season.
judman Posted August 20, 2010 Posted August 20, 2010 Really? maybin ran with the backups and only got garbage time play. he wasnt making plays against the backups. Just dancing around after he made tackles downfield. looked foolish to me. Not encouraging. I agree. He even was rubbing shoulders with some Colts players as though he was some sort of big shot. I have not been impressed with him, ever. Bum!
mpl6876 Posted August 20, 2010 Posted August 20, 2010 The game was encouraging, but the real test is the real season. I agree Doc, but I can tell you I feel a lot better about the Bills now than I did against the Skins. Let me enjoy this for a little while. Preseason or not, it was so much fun and so enjoyable to see us play well. That's coming from one pessimistic SOB.
Leonidas Posted August 20, 2010 Posted August 20, 2010 Really? maybin ran with the backups and only got garbage time play. he wasnt making plays against the backups. Just dancing around after he made tackles downfield. looked foolish to me. Not encouraging. Did anyone see him chase down 4th string QB Tim Brandstater with two minutes left, get in on the tackle, then start yelling at him? Seriously? You're an unproven, disappointing-thus-far 11th overall draft pick, and your jawing at someone who's guaranteed to not be on the team in two weeks? Give me a break.
