Giants d was in decline if not disarray before fewell got there and he turned it around. As another poster put it we could not keep fewell because he had the stink of jauron on him.

My research shows that a current player (Henry) was on the top of the board the last time the Bills were 3+ over .500 past the half way point: http://web.archive.org/web/20041229085558/http://www.twobillsdrive.com/

That game was a reaction to a single out of this world bombastic announcer who became loved after he was gone

I get so mad when people talk domes. I would rather us play outside in front of temporary bleachers at best and Jefferson than in a phony dome. It doesn't even look like real football.

Boston Globe has us in first place as meaningless as that is this time of year. http://stats.boston.com/fb/totalstandings.asp

Why the patriots had a medical examiner on staff anyway I don't know.

Rob Johnson is the all time career NFL leader in sack percentage by more than a point. http://www.pro-football-reference.com/leaders/pass_sacked_perc_career.htm How can he not be on the list.

Yeah snuffing out the opening drive of a top conference team and setting the tone for the game by doing exactly what a legit pass rusher is supposed to do is not impressive. For all the improvement in the Bills its infuriating that we were a competent defensive staff away from making a memorable leap this year. Now we have a wiffed disaster #1 and a premature release with the same player.

There was a guy that held down a starting corner job for almost a decade from the late 70s to mid 80s.

I am a big fan of Aiken. He has the look of a prototypical #1 receiver. I agree that he should be playing ahead of Martin and that Martin should be cut. I also thought Aiken should have been called up before Roosevelt. It should be noted that these comments are coming from someone who thought Brohm should be playing ahead of Fitz because he looked more like a #1.

For your information its a very common trait of long suffering Bills fans to predict that they will lose while hoping for the best. It helps ease the pain a smidgen to not get your hopes up too high and to be able to tell yourself you were right after they lose. It doesn't mean that Boomer didn't give a pronounced fist pump or more when Fitzy drew the Eagles offsides to clinch the game.

The Saints were pretty much a patch work team embraced by the media and especially so because they were in a small market suffering hard times. They took a shot on an injured Brees after Miami passed on him for Culpepper (the modern day curse of the Bambino). Their whole championship roster has always been filled with castoffs, low round picks and UDFAs. Their only name high first rounder never performed close to his selection number.

Who cares - If you are a non-turnover assisted 1-4 and legitimately close 6-5 you wind up 7-9 and miss the playoffs. If you are a turnover-assisted 4-1 and legitimately close 6-5 you are 10-6 and often get in the playoffs.

As other posters have indicated good riddance. A rotten stupid song. The theme it replaced was one of the great sports themes if all time and I'm looking. forward to it being featured again. dene dene dene (pause). dene dene dene (very long pause). DA DA da da......

Maybe your draft order should not be a function of just your last year but a function of a rolling window of time like the last five or ten years.

Perrys work in 09 where half the d was on IR and the offense couldn't make a first down was amazing. The offense had to react to Fewel's schemes. Not the other way around.

After posting this I realized I disagree with myself. The '90 Bills won two early games they had no business winning and they ended up "growing into" their artificially inflated record, behaving more like an 8-1 team than a 6-3 team later in the year. Now I can't let the call go.

Face up to the fact that we were soundly beaten in that game. It's that simple. There were many opportunities to come back from the call. We won the turnover battle by two with a pick six no less and still lost. It is not necessarily a good thing to have your record be way ahead of how good you are. That only stops you from addressing areas in need of improvement. So let go and move on.

Where are people getting this "drop percentage" data. I can't seem to find it. I want to make sure I'm using the same date everyone else is when I perform my own analyses. This team may outscore enough opponents to stay mathematically alive into December. After they are eliminated, or sooner, Aiken needs to see the field.

Don't beat yourself up. Sounds like your heart never left.

In a sea of bad games where spiller looked expendable, he looked to have unlimited potential in that Raider game. Had a markedly reduced role against the Pats. I trust that Chan had a good reason for that.

"One game?" If we knock off the pats Sunday to officially turn the franchise around and RFA misses it he will bever forgive his friend. There's no reason RFA can't go to the wedding and watch the game. The friend will be too busy to notice anyway. I would definitely go in with at least two technologies. Keep and eye on the TV map. This game will get a lot of airplay so you may be able to watch it on a portable digital antenna TV. They go for $30 on line but if its too late you'll have to buy it at radio shack for $60.

I'm particularly concerned that if our cast of overlooked and undrafted wideouts keep putting up big time numbers, other teams will be more interested in what Chan and Buddy have cooking on the practice squad. Aiken with a few preseason video clips is much more of a target now than three-drops Martin.

I would have liked to see them elevate Aiken over Roosevelt. More upside and Chan is not afraid to take risks. I am also more worried about Aiken being claimed by another team than Roosevelt. On the other hand, I wouldn't be surprised to see Roosevelt play himself into a permanent roster spot. He doesn't make a lot of mistakes. The best of both worlds would be to cut Martin who is going nowhere and elevate both Roosevelt and Aiken.

That patriots game in 98 cost a home playoff game and then the refs stuck it to us again at Miami in the playoffs just to remind us who is boss.
