QB Bills

If the Bills could defend with half as much desperation as these delusional Brandonites, we'd be 13-0 right now.

Come on now...it's Bills RUN deep...not Bills think deep.

Russ "Littlefinger" Brandon

This should be a polled thread with the two options being: A. Who cares B. Who gives a schitt

No. Roethlisberger would have fumbled the snap, we would have scooped it up and returned it for 6. Then Carpenter would have missed the tying extra point.

More like '94

Sadly, you're likely right. It's not impossible to win with Littlefinger roaming the halls at New Era, but it does significantly increase the degree of difficulty.

He will never play to his potential with the country club atmosphere that Rex runs. Some guys need to be coached up. He's definitely one.

Ya, come to think of it, you're right. That rascal Tim Graham tried to play all of us. All is well at OBD. Move along people. Nothing to see here.

It's not the Pegulas' fault, it's Brandon. It's not Brandon's fault, it's Whaley's. It's not Whaley's fault, it's Rex's. It's not Rex's fault, it's the players. It's not the whole team, it's the defense. It's not the whole defense, it's the secondary. It's not the secondary, it's the safeties. It's not all the safeties, it's Jonathan Meeks. It's not Jonathan Meeks, it's the coaching. It's not the coaching, it's the guy who hired the coach. It's not the guy who hired the coach, it's the guy who hired the guy who hired the coach. It's not the guy who hired the coach who hired the coach, it's...... (jumps off a bridge)

I wonder if they'll flex this game.

Jesus. I really didn't think it was possible to hate Russ Brandon more than I already did. They really need to get rid of this cancerous parasite before anyone else.

I think so, but this is a Hughes blow.

That really sucks. The best game he ever played was against the Steelers the last time they were here.

Lorax the vet seems like he has been running on fumes the last few games. Shaq is improving week to week. I like this decision.

I consider myself one of the more cynical fans of this team. But the way many on this board have gone on to suicide watch after losing on the road to a 10-2 team has me scratching my head. No, they didn't look good for about 50% of that game. But people are acting like it was some national embarrassment. We got beat by a better team. End of story. And now, everyone seems to think we're getting demolished by the Steelers? Why? They're another middling team just like us and they're not good on the road. Everyone needs some perspective here. We're 6-6, not 1-11. We have dealt with more injuries to big name players than most teams and now they're slowly coming back. We're about as healthy as we've been all year going into this game, assuming Woods and Darby can play. As the OP said, if we win this game (and I think we will), I say we win out and make it. Rematch at Heinz Field on wild card weekend.

I'll take it a step further... The loss to the Raiders might have helped us, exponentially so if Miami had beaten the Ravens. Had we won that game, the Patriots may not have had anything to play for against the Dolphins in week 17. And the Dolphins losing to the Patriots that week is more important than us beating the Raiders would have been. Hear me out: Assuming we beat Oakland and won out, going into week 17, NE could have had home field locked up (because of us beating Oakland). Miami could have a much better shot at beating the Patriots, which would have made us both 11-5 (assuming they don't lose to Arizona or NYJ) at which point they would get in ahead of us because of a better division record. Miami lost to the Ravens, so that makes that part moot. But if we had to lose one game, this was the one that actually provides some benefit. Now, if we both go 10-6, we make it ahead of them. And that sixth loss for the Fins becomes more likely in week 17 because Oakland beat us. Perhaps all part of Rex's strategy. He threw the game! Also, root for the Raiders this Thursday. If the Patriots are 13-2 going into week 17 and the Raiders/Chiefs are both 12-3, the Pats can rest their starters. And even more so, root for the Cardinals this weekend so it makes the Dolphins, and this scenario, a non-factor.

He may be better than Rex, but evaluating a coach simply by his record is equal parts lazy and dumb. Switch divisions and you'd likely be singing a different tune. And our jackass of a coach can't realign the divisions the way he does his pants after crapping them game after game.

Dude, take the L and live to fight another day.

Come on, Sherlock.

If you have to pick one, the bulk of the blame goes to the defense, in my opinion. Being "gassed" shouldn't be an excuse unless its late in a game and you've been getting beat like a drum all day. That sequence after our last TD was inexcusable. As for the offense, Taylor sucked in the second half, no doubt. But he got no help from his coaches/receivers. Three and outs happen. Especially when you are calling back to back wildcat plays against a stacked box. Especially when you bring in your backup QB who everyone knows will not throw the ball. Especially when you have your only good receiver, who's already playing injured, running the wrong routes or not even knowing what to do and just stopping after the ball is snapped. They were completely disorganized in all three phases, and that begins and ends with coaching. This team is just a sloppy mess. Rex and his band of merry men need to be shown the door right after the Jets game.

Jesus. First off, Jauron never got to 8 wins here. He's not as bad as he's made out to be, granted. But you can't seriously believe he was a better coach than Harbaugh. That's just asinine. Harbaugh wins. That's all anyone should want in a coach.

The guy was a pubic hair away from winning the super bowl with colin f'n kaepernick as his qb...what are you talking about?

First, beg belichick to come. Offer him whatever he wants. When he laughs in their face, immediately call Jim Harbaugh and do the same.

Bubby Brister is back?
