I have to agree with The Dean here. While not a absolutely perfect throw, you can't ask any NFL QB to place it any better than Manuel did. If Manuel gets to the point that he is that accurate, particularly at that distance, the majority of the time the Bills are going to be very very difficult to beat.

No.

IMO, that big of a difference in the most important position on the team makes them a better team.

Rivers vs Manuel is the obvious huge one. Rivers can win games. Manuel has learned how to be a game manager it seems, which is a big step forward, but win games? Not sure.

If it were in SD, the Bolts all the way. But at the Ralph with a loud 12th man again, it's a coin toss. Will come down to a mistake or a great play by one of the teams. I kinda hope the Bills fall behind early to see if Hackett and Manuel can shift gears from game management to aggressive.

When you've got them by the balls, their hearts and minds will follow.

He is long enough removed he will have no more insight into the team than any other coach. I personally hope he has a great season, except this Sunday that is

Well 22 if you subtract Spillers TD. And special teams really gets the credit for the points after the blocked punt as well.

HD on TWC CBS affiliate in Rochester. Sounds like you need to call your local provider and ask why they !@#$ed you. EDIT: Just read page 2, seems like you did +1 I record it while we are out doing something in the afternoon then we all watch during dinner commercial free. For me, the stadium cannot compete with that.

If the Bills were down by 14 I would fully expect the play calling to be different. But currently he is calling things correctly and not putting Manuel in situations where he can lose the game when managing the game is all he needs to do.

I honestly can't pick. Carpenter missed a chip shot so probably not him, but you can make a case for almost everyone else who stepped onto the field in a Bills uniform.

All they need is to consistently get the 3 and the occasional TD and let the defense take care of the rest. Hackett is allowing Manuel to play within himself and manage the game. I do not think he is being too conservative at all.

Well one thing TV did right was after the Spiller TD return they put a camera on Mrs. Wilson and showed her take a hit of her mixed drink (looked like a gin and tonic ) and high fived everyone around her. Looked like she was getting into the game day experience along with the other 70,000+ in attendance

I'm thinking a lot went out week one. They were all very sure about the Bears. And that smug piece of crap Cowher never considered the Bills beating the fish yesterday (though Charles Barkley picked the Bills ). Maybe Cowher just has a bug up his ass that he could have been the Bills coach now? It's pretty wild actually. The Bears lay an egg and Cutler in particular makes some horrible mistakes week one at home and lose to the Bills. Then they go out west week 2 and beat the 49'ers as Kaepernick has a horrific game. Miami puts a world of hurt on the Pats* week 1 at home then comes in and gets blown out by the Bills. Crazy start to the season.

That may be the one constant here, the refs are always brutal against the Bills regardless of win or loss

It's funny how this is OK because it was in favor of the Bills. If it was the other way instead of 3 pages there would be 33 pages to this thread. FWIW I think the call was probably wrong, but it was too close to overrule the original call on the field.

Exactly what my Dad did.

You know, I was wondering when people said they missed the food what they meant. There is nothing special about the pizza in Buffalo. You can get good pizza anywhere anymore. You can get good wings almost anywhere now as well. Granted there are more places to get good wings in Buffalo than most places though. I can see missing the Bills and Sabres games, and the people, and even the weather for some who moved south. But good god not food.

Wouldn't it be cool if they could put up a hologram like that Sunday at the Ralph.

No.

I imagine that's the reason he isn't in prison, so he can continue to work (assuming he got another job) and pay off the impending civil suit award. But it still leaves a bad taste in my mouth when a person dies and the stupid piece of **** that caused it gets a minimal punishment.

There was a team last week that was winless in the away stadium that they were playing in. Who was that again?

I'm good so long as it is not those preseason superhomers Bentley and Tasker. They are so bad they make me want to put a icepick in my ears to puncture my eardrums.

Some say yes, some say it is the reason for the 14 years of suck that are hopefully coming to an end now. It wouldn't be a Sully piece if he didn't piss on a Buffalo team.
