You know what impressed me most? After our botched punt that allowed the Jets to close the game to 20-7, I was 100% positive that the Bills would go 3 and out and hand the ball right back. I'd seen this story SO many times before. Instead, EJ throws two consecutive absolute beauties and suddenly it's 27-7. I know the rook has his faults, but how long did we wait for Trent/Fitz/Losman to put their shoe on the opponent's throat like that? Credit to Hackett on this particular occasion too.

I have to give credit on scoring a TD that made him look like a seasoned vet. I just don't think he's a guy that's useful between the hash marks or running a complex route tree.

Teams constantly win without a credible rushing attack. Remember the Packers' Superbowl run? That said, there has to be a better way to use Spiller.

Apologize? No way. Applaud? Sure. Would I sign him? Hell yes. I realize the franchise tag sucks when you don't know if tomorrow is your last game in the NFL, but he wasn't there for his team plain and simple.

And now that I think of it, Dareus had a great game too. He set the tone with that shot to the ribs on Geno, and shut down the middle of the field consistently when they ran. He and Kyle were dynamic.

Wedding's in June and we just moved to NYC together. Good times. By the way, there was something special about seeing the Bills beat the Jests right here in the Big Apple.

Yeah, I met a girl But I'm finally not working Sunday afternoons anymore so I should be around a bit more frequently.

Week 2 - Mario Williams Week 4 - Aaron Williams Week 7 - Mario Williams It's a tough one. Goodwin gave me great hope for this offense going forward, but Byrd had the greatest impact on the game.

I think he's currently our best weapon on offense. WR is one of the most difficult positions to figure out and he's currently ahead of the curve. The blazing speed aside, I saw crisp route running, good hands and great awareness of where the sticks were. As rookie speedsters go, that was a virtuoso performance.

Why value conviction for the sake of conviction? Doesn't it matter what the person is convinced of?

Rookie seasons come with ups and downs. This was the biggest up so far and some of those throws were gorgeous. The Goodwin TD couldn't have been placed better. We'll see if EJ takes advantage of a bad defense in two weeks.

Geno seems to be a very slow decision maker. He might land a couple bombs per game, but in a general sense he needs loads and loads of time to succeed.

For those who say "tank it". Do you have ANY idea how uninteresting professional sports would be if every eliminated team just threw in the towel?

What is 4 out of 12 in a row?

They weren't forced to and most teams wouldn't have.

Seriously? How do you define tremendously lucky? I'd use that term on something that has like a 1% chance of happening and you're applying it to what's basically our expected record?

Ya never know if he'll be back, though I'm liking Carpenter's game. Never thought I'd see #8 back in Buffalo.

You want to bring your 1 year old to the Ralph and meet Schopp and the Bulldog? Excuse me if I question your judgment.

That was close to a low point for this board. "Hey, I've seen guys play well through injuries before, which means every injury is the same!"

I wasn't impressed by Tannehill. I think the Patriots beat them going away. Cincy wins a squeaker over the Jets, and the Bills fall after a noble effort against NO.

The Bills have played a very solid schedule. Among our slate, only the Browns are probably a bottom 10 team in the NFL and I'm convinced we'd have won that game sans Tuel. That said, I'd take the easy schedule and 7-0 record any day. It would take a collapse of epic proportion to miss out on the playoffs.

Ok

Defense is 50% of the game. It's not a "bail out" when the defense plays great as a unit.

Seems as though Kyle Williams is the most popular guy on the team. I know that wasn't the question, but whenever there's an "inside the locker room" video he's always surrounded by guys.
