I agree with that. That defense gave up a ton of yardage. Probably in part due to the fact that if the hurry up didn't move at least 30 yds on a drive, the D was right back on the field only after only a couple of minutes.

Jeez...I forgot to compare the coaching staffs. I agree...Marv is better than MM...for now.

"Buffalo's 154 points in its last four games is the best in club history over such a span, exceeding any four-game output by the no-huddle offense of the team's Super Bowl years." http://www.nfl.com/news/story/7998727 To me, this is something of an amazing stat. And what jumps out at me is this...the current Bills are scoring from all three squads...O, D and ST. I'm thinking the most productive four game stretch by the Kelly team was mostly, if not completely, O. Which leads one to ask the following...is the current Bills squad a better overall team than the Super Bowl teams? Lets look (IMHO of course)... SB team D vs. 2004 team D...clear winner = 2004 team D SB team ST vs. 2004 team ST...clear winner - 2004 ST SB team O vs. 2004 team O...hmmm...a bit more detailed review is in order... Kelly vs. Drew...clear winner = Kelly TT vs. WM...winner = TT, though WM is coming up strong Andre Reed vs. Moulds...different types of receivers, but based on production...winner = Andre Lofton/Beebe vs. Lee Evans...same as above...for now Big Red vs. our current TE's...clear winner = Metz SB O line vs. 2004 O line...just like at RB, winner = SB tteam, though the current squad is coming on strong Conclusion...winner = SB team O, with the 2004 team O growing stronger as it matures. Take the SB team that lost to the Giants vs. this squad...who wins? I say this squad, primarily due to the fact that this D is the type (fast, creative, harassing) which always gave our SB squads fits. Very very interesting stuff.

He also said that this job is not a stepping stone, but essentially the pinacle of his coaching dreams.

Um, er, um, wow. (sigh) That was pretty good. Time for a smoke and a nap. -
OT -- Scott Peterson verdict due momentarily
duey replied to KD in CA's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
The most appropriate sentence for the worst type of coward...a POS of a "man" who could not face a life with an ex-wife, a child and a girlfriend...so he kills two of the three. May you rot in hell you spineless and pathetic excuse for a human being. -

ESPN had noted that with the Mets offering the 4th year, the Sox admitted that they would be out of the running. -
Kind of disorganized tip-of-the-hat to the Bills, or wings, or something. http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/page2/story...e=murphy/041213 "Here at The Hangover, we love the rhythm and poetry of an NFL Sunday. At 10:09 a.m., Pacific, in Week 14, the following things were true: Peyton Manning had thrown for a TD in Houston. Tom Coughlin was P.O.'ed about a call in Baltimore. Billy Cundiff had missed a field goal in Dallas. It was gray, snowy and romantic, in a bleu-cheese-dip-and-celery-on-the-side sort of way, in Buffalo. I had been out of bed for 11 minutes. Nothing like a quick turn through the DirecTV dial just out of the rack. To paraphrase Robert Duvall in "Apocalypse Now," I love the look of the 700 channels on a Sunday morning. It looks like ... parity. Of all those images, the most alluring was the drama being played out hard by Lake Erie. Ah, Buffalo. The forgotten NFL city. The city that, if it didn't already have a franchise, wouldn't even make the long list of possible NFL expansion cities. The place where Bruce Smith once said: "It's not the end of the world -- but you can see it from there." Buffalo, the burg that has no big-league baseball, the village that has no NBA franchise. The town does lay claim to a hockey franchise ... not that anybody notices. Against that backdrop, The Hangover proposes to officially adopt Buffalo as our very own AFC team -- at least for the next three weeks. (Long-term commitments are overrated.) Buffalo has much with which to entice us. An 0-4 start for the Bills has turned into a 7-6 record that has them knocking on the playoff door. This would be a remarkable achievement, as I devoted a Week 4 Hangover to the brutal math that faces teams who notch 0-3 starts. I don't have my abacus handy, but NFL history shows that an 0-3 start is as good an omen as having a member of the extended McCown Clan quarterbacking your team. With the 37-7 horse-whipping of Cleveland secure, and with the Browns gaining fewer yards than the average Buffalo resident consumes in wings at the Anchor Bar and Grill on Any Given Sunday, the Bills are the hottest team in the league that doesn't have a quarterback with a hamburger named after him. (By the way, I'm completely serious about that Browns/Wings stat. I would stake large amounts of money that more than one bar-dweller downed at least 18 wings at the Anchor on Sunday. Likely, one of those consumers was a Browns fan on a roadie. Probably the guy who wears the dog mask.) So I invent the Buffalo Corner armed with an invite, and with some history. Reader Travis W. of Buffalo this past week extended a red carpet, saying there is room at the inn. "Buffalo can the Philly of the AFC in your heart," writes Travis, knowing my affinity for the hard-bitten City of Brotherly Love. He adds some ominous words, should Buffalo host a wild-card playoff game: "Hell hath no fury," writes Travis, "like Ralph Wilson Stadium in January." As for personal history, it was at the very Anchor Bar and Grill where I learned, from a family of Buffalo-raised Italians, just exactly how to eat a wing. It's a thing. There's no nibbling. There's no dillying, no dallying. You take the wing, dip it in bleu cheese, insert the entire thing in your mouth, slowly turn it counter-clockwise, and suck ALL of the meat off it before the bone leaves your mouth. Should you remove the wing and leave meat on the bone? Dude, you're a Jets fan. So, welcome to the Buffalo Corner Era at The Hangover. Enjoy a high-flying, high-scoring squad. Watch Willis McGahee run. Root for Drew Bledsoe as the Jim Plunkett of the 21st Century. Admire the big hair of the chick next to you in her Andre Reed gamer. Have a wing. Life, after all, is too short to leave meat on the bone."

Well, I'll be at the Meadowlands rooting on the Seahags!

Oh to be in the NFC>

Just goes to show you that the "experts" are nothing more than some guys with opinions, just like us. Plus, they're also a bunch of morons.
-
This defense is a true TEAM defense...each person contributing in their own special way. This defense truely is something special.
-
It's good having a B word once in a while, isn't it?
-
You're wish is granted...Scout is out. Which means Chris wins 'cause everyone hates Twila.
-
I love what this team is becoming. Even with Drew having a relatively mediocre day, this team excelled in all other areas. Just like last week when the D wasn't at its best and the O (and special teams) bailed them out, today the D and Willis made up for Drew. This team could be scary good next year. And yes, of course, I will have yet another Sambuca!

Ya think Willis likes playing for da Bills? Um...yep!
-
Me too! Nice!

Official Bills vs. Browns Prediction thread
duey replied to Hawk's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
See, I think last week was the classic "trip" game. On the road against a team we should have easily beaten. And what happened? They had us down big early before we finally got it together, took advantage of their overwhelming ineptitude, and came back to beat them. I think the Bills will be focused on today, will come out aggressively, and will have control of this game early. Bills 27 Browns 10 -
Still sitting right there on that damn beach. Every once in a while someone will come by and give her water.

Nice of Eric Crouch to dress up for the show. Heisman = RJ?

Brian Hayward, Cornell alum (where I met him and watched him play), who then went on to the Winnipeg Jets and Montreal Canadians (where he shared a couple of Jennings Trophies with Pat Roy).

So, you're not the shrilling type?

Dude...well said. Each game from here on is a playoff game for us.

You know what's really great about this show...each person who is posting on this thread has picked up something that the others have not. I think that there are a tremendous amount of subtleties in this show, some of which mean something, some of which probably mean nothing. And that metal thing? Who knows...another airplane is most likely (given its location up on a hill side). Some one is going to suggest alient craft, and I hope to God its not, 'cause that will be the end of watching for me. I doubt it would get that cheesy though.
