Exactly. I watch the NFL Highlights shows and every other team in the league looks competent at least some of the time and then you watch the Bills and ...pfft. They look clueless.
I'm not asking for exotica. Every non-Bills game I watch has professionals succeeding at the basics of the game to some degree. When I watch the Bills, its as though I'm seeing the creeping but consistent de-evolution of the game.

Why are the Bills unable to run the normal complement of routes to free receivers? Why is every route straight line deep or a dump off? Why can't they run intermediate or shallow crossing routes to give Lee and TO a running start. Why is the passing game so boring? Predictable?
-
Bills LBs are no beuno. I'm really down on Kawika, slow and unable to sustain a burst throughout a 6 second play.
I saw Maybin 10 yards deep after being turned back off the rush.

Honestly, I don't get White or Edge being in a movie with Page. From what I hear, they have little to talk about with Page, and the whole thing seems contrived. I'm sure guitar worshipers will find something to like in it, though.
This was interesting premise that fell flat. From the promos I would have thought these guys shared some (recent) history together. It was more like three strangers awkwardly getting on together. Not insightful or remotely engaging. I've dug Jack White since De Stijl dropped, but he will never match Page's accomplishments on the guitar. He is a creative dude though.
The Edge is a fine guitarist with a distinct sound (too much on the effects side for my taste), but not exactly an innovator. He borrowed Keith Levene's sound and beat it to death. But again, I'm also one that thinks U2 peaked in 1992.

We would have won Superbowl 25, if someone had tackled Mark Ingram
From USA Today:
B 32 3–13 Hostetler 14 pass to Ingram middle (caught at B 26, then broke two tackles) (J. Williams).
From Wikipedia:
Ingram was drafted by the Giants in the first round (28th overall) in the 1987 NFL Draft. He is probably best known for a third down play in Super Bowl XXV in which he eluded at least five Buffalo Bills defenders to achieve a critical first down for the Giants to sustain a long touchdown drive.
So your vote goes to Hostetler?

Because football started in 1970.
The real greatest team of all-time is the 1947-1949 Cleveland Browns. 28 straight games without a loss, including two championships. October 19, 1947 through October 2, 1949.
Lou Saban! Motley! Graham!

I prefer my team display a workmanlike confidence as they rip your throat out. 'Swagger' in the context of sport is meaningless. A bunch of goofballs talking smack or prancing about with exaggerated gestures is not a measure of confidence or competence. It's a myspace page or a Black Eyed Peas video. Unfortunately, it's easier to regurgitate the same vapid cliches instead of offering real analysis.
Poise = doing your f'in job

All those guys were strong yesterday. Josh Reed is so important and has great hands. I thought Kawike Mitchell was great as well. He was NASTY out there hitting people and bringing some attitude.
I have mixed feelings on Mitchell. When he gets a head of steam and unloads it's pretty cool. More often he looks slow in space and it seems he fails to exert full effort. On Pats first TD last week, an unblocked KM could have filled the hole and plugged Taylor. Instead he took a half-speed swipe and completely whiffed. I've seen him give up on plays on more than a few occasions.

...or does anyone else find the FOX animated robot and accompanying guitar riff, ripped off from the Christmas song "Sleigh Ride" (giddyup, giddyup, let's go) incredibly annoying? Are we beer drinking adults or is this Saturday morning cartoon time?
My father made the exact observation the first time Fox went on air with the NFC. I've wondered since how they are not sued for the uncredited use of that portion of the jingle. Maybe they own the rights?
Furthermore, I can't look past the fact that Fox studio is in LA. Now we all know that football is entertainment, but those buffoons at Fox traditionally have stopped just short of mockery of the game with their antics. LA has a rich football tradition, but the Fox studio show might as well be TMZ.
While growing-up in the NY metro area, we were blessed with a surplus of serious sports journalism and commentary across media. Now, the volume is on mute across the board.

I'm not a big fan of JaMarcus Russell either.
But in JaMarcus' defense, it should be noted that because of injury, the two starting wide receivers have been rookies Darrius Heyward-Bey and Louis Murphy.
And his 3 years in the league, he's had two head coaches and two offensive coordinators.
Like Alex Smith with the Niners, Russell hasn't exactly been put in a favorable position.
Playing for the Raiders puts any player at a developmental disadvantage, probably more so at the quarterback position. In Russell's case, inexperienced receivers aren't the problem. His horrible accuracy is.
He's just what Davis ordered, a one trick mortar.

Donte played very well today. It was such a switch for him that Daryl Johnston kept calling him Ronde Barber.
I hope he keeps it up.

The award goes to the Pontiac Aztek.
Talk about Montezuma's revenge.

That was unbelievable.
Note some of the crowd reaction, too...WWII is still all to real an open wound for a lot of people in what was Russia.
Think anyone under 30 in the US even knows there was a world war?

Check out the police blotter of the Cornhuskers under "Dr." Tom Osbourne. Repeated violence against women. They're good kids, they just need a second chance.

Marvcus Patton was about 220lbs wet as a rookie. He bulked up to 240-245 and had a very effective career. Hope Buggs can do the same and not get buggered in the process.
-
Both he and Leodis could take some "class" lessons from McGee.
Something tells me McGee's preparation doesn't include daily tweets.
-
It's not Donte's fault.
Keep missing the point.
If you don't got game then shut the f up. If you didn't win the game then shut the f up
You have to actually do something notable before you have something interesting to say.
We're not talking about technology.

"and stop tweeting" You sound like you're 60. Get a clue.
A guy tweeting from the space station - I'm interested. A mediocre jock using every channel possible to say absolutely nothing - not so much.
Don't you worry though: I'm sure the world is riveted by the minutiae of your anonymous life.
-
Please Donte: stop talking, stop taunting the crowd before posting a W, and stop tweeting. Try making a play or two before opening your yap, and feel free to sign elsewhere when your contract expires. Wah.

He is from Ohio so we know he can coach in the cold

Think about when this all started.
Somebody needs to shiv that mofo OJ.
Jim Dunaway did it first.

Steve: What if somebody calls my mama a whore?
Dalton: Is she?

Didn't see Nate today, but in his first year in the Bay, he was excellent.
I watched the Vikings/Browns today and let me say that Antoine Winfield was a complete stud. Stronger in run support than any defender currently on the Bills and mostly avoided in coverage.
Watching him and Phat Pat hold down the fort for the vikings was a pleasure (the other Williams was pretty good too).
-
I agree... But the era also took a toll on him... I wonder what Wayne would do now? You know it wouldn't have been as amazing without a McSorley or Semenko protecting his pretty boy ass...
Hell, Gretz did fight Neal Broten.

Dude primarily posts to pimp his front yard and now drops this gem. Premium parking anyone?
