BEAST MODE BABY! Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 Whiners. Geez, get a freakin' life some of you. Your whole week is ruined if the Bills lose? Take a step back and get some perspective. If someone had told me at the beginning of the year that we'd lose to the Pats by 2 in the season opener and by 1 to Indy at Indy, I would have been very happy. I would have been happy to know that our coaches threw in a few wrinkles to confuse Brett Farve (i.e. the 3-4) and cut off the deep roots to stifle Peyton. Even have opposing coaches applaud our gameplanning (Dungy). Unlike Mularkey and our old DC, these coaches can coach. Obviously the OL is a major problem, but they've only been together for 3 weeks. Give it time. Go watch some old Bills footage or something. Many of you need to learn how not to focus on the negative. We all know that this year was going to be interesting. The only beating we've taken was in Chicago. THis is going to take time people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BEAST MODE BABY! Posted November 13, 2006 Author Share Posted November 13, 2006 Sorry. Losman sucks. Marv is senile. Jauron is no better than Mularkey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meazza Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 "If someone would have told me at the beginning of the season..." That's when I stopped reading. Joe is right (good god), keep having low standards and you will live and die by them. This is a Bills team that has had many opportunities to be decent to great and yet we have been PATHETIC.

It's going to take time. THis isn't about low standards. It's about patience. Expecting things to turn around as quickly as you want is, get this, un-freaking-realistic. Now leave this thread and continue to self-flagellate yourself because your football team lost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoCal Pat Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 THis is going to take time people. 834936[/snapback] You mean I've got to wait another seven years to make the playoffs? Because this whole, "It's going to take some time," regurgitation is something I'm fed up with. So pardon those that are grumpy about today for feeling that way.

While I don't let a Bills loss ruin my week I do get bothered when the team that I love appears to be taking steps backwards as the season progresses.

Swift Sylvan Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 Well if Marv can make our defense like this after one year, then after two years he should make our offense good too, right? Well time to trust in the man.....not that we have a choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now leave this thread and continue to self-flagellate yourself because your football team lost. 834944[/snapback] It's not about being optimistic or pessimistic. It's about taking a step back and saying, if i wasn't a bills fan, what would i think about their level of competitiveness? The outlook is not good. You could say all you want about being patient and what not and I have been patient since I have watched the Bills since I was a fan a long long time ago. The problem is that it's always the SAME problems. To me JP Losman isn't the answer, and a team reflects your QB. To me this offensive line is below average, and that reflects on how good your QB will be. The only thing positive on this team is the defense and well, even that has been sh------- from time to time. I don't know if they will be good next year or not, but the way things are going now, losing sucks. Watching football is fun, cheering for your team is fun but when they don't even look like they care sometimes, it drains you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get this, we have new coaches and a new GM. Some of you will never be satisfied, I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree the OL has been a problem for awhile. However, this year's draft focused on the defense. We had Moulds cap hit, so we didn't get any top OL free agents. Next year should see us focus on the OL...not to mention we just shuffled the line again. JP has always, to me, showed that he doesn't give up and he's learning. He is no RJ. Heck, even the mighty Eli only had 120 yards passing today, even with Tiki in the backfield. If you want to take issue with someone on this team, take issue with Peerless. We need a much better #2 than what he's given us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not giving up isn't what impresses me since, by nature, QB's have to be competitors or else, well there is someone else in line who is willing to be more competitive. It's holding on to the ball too long. Like one of my friends was telling me, when he would turn on the bills game, he would see JP taking a sack. That is partial the OL and partial JP. Now I want the guy to succeed, boy do I ever, but like I said, I don't really believe it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's more like the Raiders than anything... but do they believe in their coach? Do they believe that they are better off working harder if some players play like sh-- and still manage to stay starters on the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fakeeyed Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 This team truly is the most boring team to watch when JP and company are on the field. 834955[/snapback] boring because they are playing ultraconservative. 13 pass attempts? youre not going to see a fun offense with that kind of game plan. point is, they need to let jp move more than he does. i thought we drafted him for his legs and potential to be a threat in the air and on the ground... yet, they wont let him run and he doesnt have enough time to throw a nice deep ball.

He was drafted for his arm, legs and athletic ability. The JP that this team is attempting to mold is none of those three things. sad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
