Guest dog14787 Posted May 29, 2009 Posted May 29, 2009 They kinda of look a like too. Plus, props to Mrs. Warner who is looking pretty good these days. but for all this talk of Warner's arm strength, I'd hardly call his arm cannon-like. It may be slighty stronger than Edwards' but what makes KW so successful is accuracy & his release. I'm also the fact he has played with possibly 3 HOF receivers and another really good one doesn't hurt either. But I'm sure Warner would have similar stats playing in Buffalo throwing to Josh Reed and Robert Royal. I never really thought of it , but your right, Kurt Warner looks like he could be TE's Dad
SF Bills Fan Posted May 29, 2009 Posted May 29, 2009 The Rams had an easy division, though. In fact they had a pretty easy schedule the whole year. That was a time when the NFL as a whole seemed to be defined by parity.
Mr. WEO Posted May 29, 2009 Posted May 29, 2009 There is also some slight difference in talent and experience between Martz and Schonert, /quote] Really? "Some slight difference in talent"? Martz created that high risk high reward offense. Schonert is a no talent. Don't see why we should have to gamble with inexperieced/poor coaching after such an investment in the offense. Make the call, Russ.
SF Bills Fan Posted May 29, 2009 Posted May 29, 2009 Also, I recall that Dick Vermeil wept alot. I don't see Juaron being so weepy.

The Senator Posted May 29, 2009 Posted May 29, 2009 SKOOBY, has Turk been talking this big about the offense to you? Give us the scoop! FYI, when SKOOOOOOOOOOOOBY says he 'spoke with Turk', he means... Newbomb Turk
djcalvin79 Posted May 30, 2009 Posted May 30, 2009 You never heard of him? last i heard he was doing a bang up job coaching Col. State right? ;-) per game NCAA MWEST Total Offense 395.8 yds 41st 4th Total Defense 410.1 yds 97th 7th Points Scored 23.9 pts 113th 9st Points Allowed 29.8 pts 132nd 9th

generaLee83 Posted May 30, 2009 Posted May 30, 2009 Or they aren't coached properly again and finish 7-9 or worse. I mean really Skooby? The 99 Rams and the 09 Bills? Really? No effing way, not even close, another terrible thread.

BLZFAN4LIFE Posted May 30, 2009 Posted May 30, 2009 We have the talent to press, we'll just have to execute. ... the head coach!
Guest dog14787 Posted May 30, 2009 Posted May 30, 2009 I keep going over all the OTA's we have highlights of so far and I can't help but get excited over how well TE is throwing the ball.
SKOOBY Posted May 31, 2009 Author Posted May 31, 2009 I keep going over all the OTA's we have highlights of so far and I can't help but get excited over how well TE is throwing the ball. Look who he is throwing too, We have 2 talented WR's that he can't over throw.
Conch Posted May 31, 2009 Posted May 31, 2009 The St. Louis Rams in 1999 became the greatest show on Turf because of their offense's ability to score on a regular basis. The had their best WR coming off a bad year in Issac Bruce (Lee Evans for us), Added Faulk who was able to catch well out of the backfield (Rhodes for us), Had a 28 year old QB in Warner with a great mind / quick decision making / accurate throws (flashes of 26 year old Trent last year), a O-line that came together (fingers crossed for us)., The Rams had just come off a 4-12 season after multiple losing years in a row (Bills have sucked for years). 1999 NFL St. Louis Rams* 13 3 0 Vermeil Warner Faulk Bruce 1 1 4 6 9 1 1 31 1998 NFL St. Louis Rams 4 12 0 Vermeil Banks Henley Proehl 24 27 24 10 27 25 22 30 1997 NFL St. Louis Rams 5 11 0 Vermeil Banks Phillips Lee 23 21 19 17 6 23 19 30 1996 NFL St. Louis Rams 6 10 0 Brooks Banks Phillips Bruce 20 27 27 26 21 27 30 30 1995 NFL St. Louis Rams 7 9 0 Brooks Miller Bettis Bruce 22 15 29 12 19 27 15 30 Age Pos G GS QBrec Cmp Att Cmp% Yds TD TD% Int Int% Lng Y/A AY/A Y/C Y/G Rate Sk Yds NY/A ANY/A Sk% Kurt Warner*+ 28 QB 16 16 13-3-0 325 499 65.1 4353 41 8.2 13 2.6 75 8.7 8.4 13.4 272.1 109.2 29 201 7.9 7.5 5.5 Add it all up and there is many things to compare, especially with T.O. being the most productive WR in the past 3 years and ML bulking up to 230 and being able to hammer out yards. I actually see our offense as rather difficult to handle on a weekly basis, simliar the the Rams. If the Bills can score early and often, our defense will see alot more passes than normal which will win us alot of games this year. I personally think if our opponents have to pass a majority of the time, they are dead ducks in general against us. GO BILLS!! I am a bills fan, since 1961, that has lived in st louis for 15 years. You are on crack.
NewHampshireBillsFan Posted May 31, 2009 Posted May 31, 2009 Even with a totally new OL, we should be better. But it makes more sense to try to build our own identity than to look for comparisons to the 99 Rams. I think that would only be depressing. Too many differences in personnel and coaching.
