Every minute of those 60 minutes is equally important. I don't understand why we should have special rules for the last two minutes. Why is a fumble or incomplete catch in the 5th minute of the game any different from the one at the 59th minute.
I agree fully that every minute, every second even is equally important. But if I pressed my point for every second, then a game could last 10 hours possibly. But it's more football, so maybe that's not a bad thing.

I'm one who hates extra rules and regulations in any phase of life but perhaps in the last 2 minutes of a game, extra scrutiny can be placed to get calls right. Even calling penalties that normally couldn't be called when reviewed. If this idea is taking it too far then say so cause I hate extra rules. I'm normally a let em play kinda guy.
-
You cant call a penalty after a review like that.
If this is the case that's unfortunate for GB. Refs shoulda caught it in the first place. But if first string refs can't catch everything then 3rd tier prolly will catch less.

simultaneous possession goes to the offense
Tommy Jackson is going ballistic right now
This is true under the rules but in that last pass it wasn't simultaneous possession. It's really a moot point though because the WR committed offensive PI. For some reason it wasn't called even after review. Kinda odd huh?

product of brady
He was getting open consistently when he was with the Dolphins. Well for the one game I saw him play.

I recall some people were upset we didn't draft Javid Best instead.
Spiller is turning out to be one monstrous pick. Add in an emerging young, beastly O-line and CJ will be lighting it up for some time.
-
Well then how do you explain the harps I heard when we drafted him?
I heard lyres when Glenn fell to us. If he keeps on playing the way he is we'll all be hearing a full on angelic orchestra.

What a great way to start off the day

What if we all show up to one home game with a toad? What percentage of the fans will realize the significance? Hopefully everyone

That's just rough. Thats more than enough for two rental house purchases each year. When she's 18 she could own 20+ rental houses. I honestly don't know how she'll survive.
-
Tarvaris was a good pickup for the price. He'll alleviate some of our concerns. He's no Frank Reich but he'll be an ok backup until we upgrade further. If we are really lucky Chan and Lee will be able to get more out of him than previous coaches. Now fans can fret on other things.
-
That's like a flying Vegas hotel! Holy moly.
-
What if presidential candidates keep their promises?
It's unlikely that Thigpen will show us much. As much as I want him to show us improvement because he's on our team I just don't see it at this point.

As long as there is another Chelsea Meissner I'll be a happy camper
-
So Vick will be able to handle a BAR toting DE? Maybe not. .30 perhaps. If he'll be wearing plates he better bring lots in case he runs into Mario. The name Unequal technologies infers neither promising nor negative aspects. Unequalled would be better.

"All grown up" = 20 = adequate maturity? She may look all grown up but is she?
-
Gosh if there really is a Pats DC Tom out there he's probably trying his best to knock some sense into them, misguided as he may be. At least our DC Tom is rooting for the right team. Imagine them meeting...yikes.
-
Kelly the Dog said it well. You just have to draft well no matter the round and coach the new guys well. In next years draft it will be nice to go offense with a healthy addition of LB. I suppose this goes without saying. This strategy could be altered somewhat if there are defensive studs available when our picks come up but it's almost time to start upgrading the O.

Some of you who have seen Shawn of the Dead probably got an inkling of a silly attempt at a play on words before opening this post. This is just a temporary change of pace (most likely a blip) with our infatuation with the Bills.
Do you guys and gals recall the point in the film when the main characters bump into another group who dress and look like them? Sometimes we hear that maybe we have long lost twins out there or someone who looks like us. Is it possible we Bills fans, we happy few posters might have long lost twins or dopplegangers or whatever out there who happen to be just as infatuated with...let's say the Phins? It could be any team we consider a rival. Is there a misguided Senator, SJBF, John from Hemet, eBall, PTR, Shoretalk, Bowery, or even a HowardPearlman in fish jerseys posting just as emphatically about their team? It would be odd as hell to run into our dopplegangers at a game.
This post has absolutely no factual basis but is meant as a temporary change of pace to the near meltdown to the TJ acquisition.
If you even have the slightest suspicion that you have a long lost twin out there rooting for the wrong team then post your concerns.

Well I suppose that's one way to look at it. So the Bills would be more secure with VY and Thigpen as backups? You have more optimism in those two than I do.
It's good to know you are looking forward to Buddy and Chan being ousted. I guess they should stop trying to improve the team pronto and give up before yet another informed fan criticizes them.
In the likely event that Fitz falls flat on his face trying to run our quirky offense, can we bench him and put in T. Jackson? How many wins can we expect in that scenario?
This deal is the most retarded thing I've seen us do in a while. It equals more IN-security at a vital position, and more security for a QB who DOES NOT deserve it.
The only good that comes from this will be the ouster of Buddy, Chan, and their smarty-pants QB. -That's all I'm really looking forward to.

RIP Mr. Armstrong.

For what price? Same draft slot? I would probably chose Tebow, but that is my misinformed opinion.

John, your theory makes sense. I haven't been able to watch any preseason games but from what I've read on here it would be a debacle if Fitz missed some games. Although Tarvaris won't set the world on fire, he's someone who I think Gailey can work with and hold the rains for a bit. I'd be more comfortable with him in than VY or Thigpen for sure. Honestly at this early stage, without even knowing what Gailey can do with him, I'd feel better about upgrading the back up qb situation next off season. But for now this is an upgrade and for cheap imo. I'm fine with this. Some may want Fitz to be upgraded but that is a totally different discussion. I'm curious to see if Gailey will try to mold the offense to Tarvaris' strengths if he happens to be called upon.
My own personal opinion.....
- The bills knew Thigpen wasnt the answer last year
- They took a chance that VY might have something.......but he was slow to grasp the playbook....then in a short amount of time in the preseason game before last he looked decent......but then he fell like a ton of bricks when he got extended time against Pittsburgs backups......his body language and play looked VERY bad.....almost like it was affecting the other players I cant even describe it.......
It was after that game if I wonder Nix and Gailey started talking about what happens if Fitz goes down for any period of time this year......NEITHER of our backups have shown any reason that they might be able to manage the team.....they saw an opportunity get get a QB who was young......was a recent starter.......wasnt a locker room cancer.......who has PLAYOFF experience. And they took a chance with a draft pick so late that they might not even make the team anyway
Personally....I dont understand the complaint......for a 5-6th round pick you are getting a young veteran QB....for your backup......if he was a great QB then he would be starting somewhere.......even the seattle hawk fans think he is the perfect backup QB......so why wouldnt he be the perfect backup QB fo us?
Kudos to Nix for trying to fix a glaring problem on this team the best way he can
-
To the folks who say this is bad trading for a qb so late; well that's one way to look at it but you can also just as easily say that Chixley gave VY and Thigpen every opportunity to prove themselves but they couldn't hack it and it was time to cut the cord. Some regimes will hold onto bad performers hoping to prove that they are worth keeping in the end. It's not an easy decision to admit you're wrong but I'm glad the FO is willing to do what is necessary even if it's not popular with some here.

Jason Peters the best LT? Ok, sure, they can keep thinking that of it makes Philly feel better. I'm sure Glenn won't even notice, and just keep plowing the road.
