Why is Graham used more than Goodwin?
billsfan714 replied to Jerry Jabber's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I was hoping TJ would get a job with Tim Hortons what with all the donuts he puts up in the box score. -
Big props to EJ, very nice game even with the pick and fumble Did TJ have goose egg again? Aaron Williams with the play of the game on that strip on Robinson when he was going in or else that Jag drive at the end would of been for a go ahead FG Pettine, get this run D fixed. I like the way Hackett mixed it up too

Anyone want to discuss the Jags?
billsfan714 replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
It would be scary if we dont beat a team like the Jags. This is an not exactly a high octane offense and they will be without Blackmon, Shorts and MJD. They also traded away Monroe during the season. -
Preliminary Top 10 excuses for 2014

Having no expectations and a bunch of excuses at the ready is the culture of failure. -
Preliminary Top 10 excuses for 2014
billsfan714 replied to billsfan714's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Quite the opposite actually, I get not pleasure in watching this team suck year after year. And maybe just maybe, people you view as negative really care more about this team. We're not going to sick back and make excuses. The ones who really have the "endorphins released from being correct" are the excuse makers. If you read my post all it says is end the excuses. Every one of the excuses I listed other teams have overcome at times and made the playoffs whether its new coaches, new system, injuries, players lost in free agency, rookies starting, etc. I dont get the vapors if someone criticizes this team. To me, if you havent been criticizing this team for over a decade from coaching and GM hires, drafting, and play on the field then you probably dont care if they win or lose. I do care. -
Its a passing league...right?
billsfan714 replied to thewildrabbit's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Whats your thoughts on the Monday night game where Dallas rushed for almost 200 yards, had a 7.1 ypc and still got smoked by the Bears? -
I dont think what the Bills did is even close to the same. Leinart and Thad were brougt in after injuries to Kolb and EJ, and Leinart was here less than a week. Seattle signed Flynn for 3 years 26 million, had Jackson as a backup and still used a 3rd rounder on Wilson, A move I dont ever seeing the Bills making.

Tom Donahoe- was he really that bad???!
billsfan714 replied to major's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I agree he was average at best. The Price trade was a great trade. You could maybe argue he overpaid for Bledsoe. You can question drafting McGahee when you had Henry, especially knowing you were getting basically nothing his rookie year. The really horrible part is Mike Williams and JP Losman. You cant whiff that bad with a 1st round projected LT, and a QB and not set a franchise back 3 years. -
On the second play, I have the game DVR'd and after watching that play in slo-mo 20 times, it wasnt just Kiko that was out of position it was also Gilmore. The Tampa reciever makes a slight, 2 step move pre-snap inside but is still on Lawsons outside shoulder, as Glennon is handing off to Rainey. The Tampa receiver comes across, like it may be an inside reverse......you see a blur of Gilmore going across your screen the opposite way of the run, totally abandoning his side of the field. It was also Kyle, though he got off the snap the quickest, he got handled on that play, and Rainey was off to the races.

What really starts to drive you crazy by this point in the season is realizing the mistakes can come from anywhere. The defense, while getting sacks and turnovers, is near the league lead in passing TDs given up and has given up some rushing yards to some sub par teams. Penalties, drops/fumbles by the receivers, Tuels goalline mistake, , EJ decent a week bad 2 weeks, line problems. You get shell-shocked watching different units take turns losing games. I guess my spidey Bills-sense tells we lose a game by Carpenter shanking a game winning kick. It only makes sense in Buffalo-esque way. -
While that is true, FSU only gave up 14 sacks in 2012. Ryan Fitzpatrick, that superb athlete, in his last 3 years with the Bills, rushed for 269, 197 and 204 yards. EJ is averaging 16.5 yards rushing per game, times 16 that would be 264 yards rushing for a full season. Not much better than an average Fitzy year. Nick Foles, who I wouldnt say is much of a runner is averaging 16.8 yards per game. I'll still maintain EJ isn't the runner some people think he is.

Incorporate a huddle Incorporate a drop back play action pass into the offense. Scrap running from read option Demote Hackett Have new OC review 2012 game films to properly utilitze Spiller New OL and ST coaches. Get a new starting G, WR, TE and LB in draft and free agency.

Well there's no doubt the Bills have never had a stretch in their history like the millenium Bills. At least those other awful teams improved after a few years. The new age Bills add talent but never seem to add any numbers in the win column.

Preliminary Top 10 excuses for 2014
billsfan714 replied to billsfan714's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
LOL, been on this board 5 years now and I've read them all from the drafting, to the front office and coaching hires to players and their play on the field. The one common theme is its not really anybodys fault and the only cure is patience and we will be good next year or the year after or the year after that or...... -
1. EJ is only in his second year, QB X didnt play well in his second year either. 2. Marrone is only in year 2 you cant expect much he's still learning. 3. Hackett is only in year 2 you cant expect much he's still learning the NFL game. 4. We lost Byrd it will take X number of years for his replacement to play well. 5. Player X and Y were hurt if not for those injuries we would of made the playoffs 6. If you change a play in this game and that game and this game we would of been 9-7 7. The refs screwed in this game and that game. 8. Rookie A and B are starting and it will take them time to learn. 9. TJ Graham is only in year 3, Brandon Lloyd and whoever didnt have a good year until,,,,,,, 10. They lost a heartbreaker in week X of course there would be a let down in the next few games I post this because Im sick of the excuses. They're getting old, lamer and more desperate by the year. The team motto for 2014 should be no excuses, none. Young coaches--- screw it,, work harder in the off season and step it up, same for anybody filling in for injuries, free agents lost or any rookies starting. Tough call or loss, get over it. Screw development with no results in the W-L column, go out get some respect from the other teams in the league.

The sit back, be patient, watch em develop crowd is now zero for 14 playoff years, and 1 and 13 in terms of a winning team, so yeah surely year 15 is the charm. Marrone and Co. will need to go 2-1 down the stretch to equal the futility of Gailey/Wanny. There hasnt been any real improvement. While the D has improved the offense has regressed and it isnt all because we have a rookie QB. Gailey had CJ playing a probowl level and Marrone and Hacket have turned him into a middle of the road back. Sorry I see a team stuck in place consistently as one of the 10 worst teams in the league. You are what your record say you are. I call them like I see them.
