zow2 Posted August 10, 2009 Posted August 10, 2009 The preseason is all about getting ready for the regular season. And the Bills are certainly getting the fans ready with this start. Give up a TD on the opening drive. Check. Turnover on our first drive. Check. 14-0 before the first quarter ends. Just wait a minute or two. Sprinkle in a couple of teases, such as thinking we got a defensive stop, only to fall for a fake punt, and showing some flashes of offensive competence, and we are already in mid-season form. All we are missing is the season-ending injury. So true. This club will need 5 preseason games to just get some kind of identity and/or confidence. Jeff Fisher always looks so prepared on the sidelines and he has his guys prepared. Dick???
realtruelove Posted August 10, 2009 Posted August 10, 2009 I say fire Jauron now and name TO the coach.
BillsVet Posted August 10, 2009 Posted August 10, 2009 Can't really see why there are giving him that kind of abuse in his FIRST NFL appearance. Because he's already been tabbed to be the starting LG for a team which has undergone serious transition on the OL. How many guys get strong enough during the course of the season to prevent that from happening?
Endless Ike Posted August 10, 2009 Posted August 10, 2009 Glad the Defense showed up tonight..... I know there is no game-planning, but come on....have some pride!!! this assumes we do much game-planning in the regular season
davefan66 Posted August 10, 2009 Posted August 10, 2009 I have seen enough ... looks like the same old Bills to me. I miss Tom Donahue. Just 13 minutes into the preseason and we get our first Tommie D sighting!
Wing Man Posted August 10, 2009 Posted August 10, 2009 So far, Bills outblocked and outcoached. I'm sure we're holding back our best plays for the regular season...
silvermike Posted August 10, 2009 Posted August 10, 2009 I'd say "don't worry about it, once our scheming comes into play in the regular season, we'll be in better shape" but I don't really think scheme and gameplan is what gives us our edge.
bills44 Posted August 10, 2009 Posted August 10, 2009 best play of the game, and it's called back. ah, Buffalo Bills football
The Dean Posted August 10, 2009 Posted August 10, 2009 Because he's already been tabbed to be the starting LG for a team which has undergone serious transition on the OL. How many guys get strong enough during the course of the season to prevent that from happening? Technique, anticipation, recognition...all of these are important in making sure you use your strength to its fullest. I'm guessing he has a way to go in those things.
Endless Ike Posted August 10, 2009 Posted August 10, 2009 let's get some "Fire Dick Jauron" chants from the bills fans in the crowd...we know Ralph is in the building
BEAST MODE BABY! Posted August 10, 2009 Posted August 10, 2009 God, please tell me the regular season isn't going to be this painful.
John from Riverside Posted August 10, 2009 Posted August 10, 2009 I actually forgot how much I hate ref calls having the whole offseason to forget about them..... - On the ST touchdown there was a clip on a player in position to make the tackle....if you cant see the numbers its a clip - On one key play so far i saw Leodis held big time - Now we just had a decent return brought back because of a hold.....seriously refs?
zow2 Posted August 10, 2009 Posted August 10, 2009 SO now the rest of the country yawns...and says c'mon Bills....can you even make this game worthwhile to watch for a bit?!?
TallskiWallski83 Posted August 10, 2009 Posted August 10, 2009 Jeeze guys it's just preseason. Remember when everyone thought the skins would go to the superbowl when they set preseason records with spurrier
realtruelove Posted August 10, 2009 Posted August 10, 2009 "We did some good things out there tonight, but we have a long way to go" Dick Jauron after the Bills lose to the Titans 46-3 in the Hall of Fame Game.
Rayzer32 Posted August 10, 2009 Posted August 10, 2009 So much for vanilla offense in the preseason. NE is going to destroy us on opening night. Ho-hum.
BLZFAN4LIFE Posted August 10, 2009 Posted August 10, 2009 You're seeing what comes out of camp soft Dick.
silvermike Posted August 10, 2009 Posted August 10, 2009 Well, so long Trent, et al. That was fun while it lasted.
