  1. Yep, I remember Ginn on that first play and thinking to myself that McGee was in for a long day. I also forgot about Trent reaching the ball to try and get the 1st down and fumbling, ugh, I won't be there for sure this weekend. http://www.nfl.com/gamecenter/2008102604/2...9000d5d80bf79ec
  2. Yea, I was there and my seats were right on the end of the 2nd level and I was leaning up against the railing and the Fin's fans were yelling, "HE'S GOING TO JUMP!!". It was actually pretty funny.
  3. Usually go but I have the Sunday ticket this year and don't feel like making the trip down from Tampa. It's not as much the drive down as it is the ride home after a potential loss. I know there are a bunch of people from Tampa going to the Squash the Fish party at Blue Martini. Ask for Jason, he's a manager there, from Buffalo.
  4. Agree with you 100%. The fans in New Orleans, the media in New Orleans and I believe the players in New Orleans think they are better as a team than they really are and Vegas wants to take advantage. I assume the public will be on the Saints this weekend however, I will be on the other side just like the Pats game and will cash in, again.
  5. I hear ya but we are talking about probably the best college football player ever. This kid is a winner and has the "it" quality that Archie Manning never had. I am not familiar with how much Archie was loved but I live in the Florida area and have never seen anything like the love affair for Tebow. I hope it happens.
  6. If the Jags want fans they should do one thing next year, draft Tim Tebow. My parents live in St. Augustine right outside Jax and everyone loves the Gators and LOVES the local Boy Mr. Tebow. I don't care what their pick is, draft the guy and the franchise will survive. I'm telling you, that would get butt's in the seats.
  7. I didn't get anything out of that article at all besides why AVP's nickname is "Pill". It really just seemed like a reach to write an article about this situation. Edwards hasn't been hiding in my opinion like Sully states, everyone's been jumping on him as the problem not Schonert and I haven't seen Turk at all. Last year there was more complaining about Schonert's play calling and less about Edwards, the complete opposite of this preseason. The simplified offense could be exaclty what Buffalo needs. Heck, I have like 5 plays I run over and over in Madden and they work for me, same thing, right?
  8. Just read a great article in ESPN magazine regarding a certain winning team in the AFC east that has no OC and they happen to be Buffalo's week 1 opponent. I like the move a lot. So many weeks last year ended with Bills fans yelling about the play calling, maybe now it will change.
  9. Thanks! Very cool stuff. I assume these streams are available during the regular season as well? I'd rather watch on my computer than go down the street to a bar. My only question is how dependable they are. Anyway, thanks again.
  10. You guys mind walking me through exactly what I have to do? If not, no worries, it sounds ugly.
  11. Good, the Pats can't scout us. Just trying to think positive here.
  12. Why am I a Bills fan? I certainly get that question a lot down here in Tampa. It seems whenever that question is asked the person asking it feels sorry for me. It's getting to the point of embarassment and I feel that if things don't change in the right direction this year I might just spend my Sundays being frustrated about my golf game instead. FYI, I'm typically an optimist unlike many regulars who post on this board so I do believe they can turn it around but if they don't it won't surprise me either.
  13. Can usually find a feed on homertv.net. However, sign up asap because it takes a while to get approved. Also, it will be replayed on Sunday at 1pm I believe on NFL network.
  14. Very true but I guess I choose to see it as him being more prepared this year and with experience and some film study things will improve greatly as the season goes on. I'm not going to go crazy over a preseason game, I'm going to hold my judgements until Sept 14th and on. However, I'm 70-30 on him "getting it" against the 3-4 this year which I'm sure is quite a bit higher than most people on this board. I have a feeling he plays well this weekend against Pittsburgs 3-4 just to shut everyone up. Just trying to be optimistic.
  15. Instead of calling each other out they should freaking practice against a freaking 3-4 defense. I just find it hard to believe that Edwards spent the ENTIRE off season without analyzing how he needs to improve against a particular type of D. I'm concerned but I won't believe that things will be the same until I see it in the regular season. I know in the glory years we didn't look so hot in the preseason and things turned out fine. http://www.buffalorumblings.com/2009/8/24/...-call-out-trent
  16. Well, Target took my other Madden back and gave me another one. I thought it was interesting that the manager took it in the back and came out and told me that "yep, it was empty". Makes me think that they can tell somehow. Anyway, can't wait to play tonight!
  17. Happy Monday! Byrd practices and........Maybin signs? T.O. practices? Hopefully so. Hope they stay healthy and DJ doesn't play them at all that last preseason game, 4 is too many and 5 is ridiculous.
  18. To go along with your Home Depot story, I returned a charger for my drill to Lowes today and they credited my card for 35 bucks and that's why I figured I'd go buy the game. I think I've returned 2 things my entire life and now I'm going to do 2 in 2 days. Weird. I was really looking forward to playing with Trent, T.O. and Evans, oh well maybe tomorrow.
  19. True story, I just bought it earlier today at Target and I hadn't opened it until about 5 minutes ago because I was watching the golf and when I opened it to my surprise there was no freaking disc! I couldn't believe it but I'm hoping the people at Target do tomorrow. So until tomorrow I'll just read all of your posts regarding the game.
  20. Only thing missing from those highlights was a nice toss to Evans. Check it out if you haven't seen it. http://www.nfl.com/videos/nfl-game-highlig...ards-highlights
  21. It's nice to see that Tight End seems to be a strength right now after everyone was complaining about the position being weak. Even Stupar is making plays.
  22. I go every year since I'm in Tampa. However, I don't wear any Bills stuff and am very quiet during the game because those people are freaking crazy. You're not missing anything if you don't go, trust me. Although, South Beach is quite nice.
  23. Not the most thought provoking post here but man, I like a lot of what I see tonight. If I'm going to complain I would like to see a running play longer than 3 yards.
  24. A quarter would certainly be nice but I understand DJ's thinking. My guess is they play 3 series.
