    Tell that to your boss at your next evaluation. “Hey, what do ya want from me? I showed up for the meeting, didn’t I?” Let us know how it goes. 😉

    I never had a contract like Romo does.  It would cost CBS a fortune to fire Romo, and it would embarrass their own organization to demote him.  Not to say they aren't having discussions behind closed doors, but Romo has sucked for three years or more now (after such a hot start) and nothing CBS does seems to help.

    He looks to have completely lost his touch.

    I don't know who their GM is, but what I remember is that the Bills had to beat the fish in the last game of the year a couple of years ago. If they won (and they did) they'd get the 2 seed. If they lost they'd have been out of the playoffs.  Miami was that good, not that long ago.  It's a tribute to McBeane (and Allen of course) that they've kept the Bills roster strong year after year.

    the bills are going to get people fired this week.

    Last week on FB a Dolphins fan asked me to have the Bills beat the fish by a lopsided score, in order to get McDaniel fired.  I said I'd do my best.  But I really think the Bills are likely not to run up the score as long as they're sure they're going to win.  They had a four score lead in the fourth quarter yesterday, and then backed off. They could probably have scored 45 or more if they'd needed or wanted to, but why embarrass the Jets any more than Strawberry Fields already embarrassed them?  Aaron Glenn will have that team a lot better in a year or two.  Can't say the same thing about the fish.  They've collapsed and are now in the need-QB club, where coaches and GMs go to get fired.

    It's really been uncanny how the chips have fallen the Bills' way in the first two weeks of the season.

     

    The Bills' only games this season against teams that are currently 2-0 are Cincinnati (week 14) and Philly (week 17) plus possibly Tampa Bay (week 11) (1-0 and playing tonight).  We're 2 games up on Kansas City a game up on Baltimore with the tiebreaker, and 2 games up on the entire division except New England because, well, someone had to win that MIA-NE game yesterday.

     

    It's too early to get excited by all this and I'm risking putting a Jim Nantz kicker hex on it by talking about it, but how often do you remember everything going the Bills' way around the league?  The last time I remember this happening was Week 17 in 2017.

    There are 15 games left to play, and 16 weeks left in the season.  It's not up to you, my friend, to go around risking that hex you mentioned.  Enjoy the games and keep your happy thoughts to yourself.  Team discipline!

  5. What this was, was a very good NFL team playing an inferior roster with an incredibly bad QB.  The Jets do have some talent but they lost their MLB who always gave Josh fits, and far more important was their incredibly terrible QB.  On the first Jets possession he had a wide open receiver for a 20 yard gain and a first down, and he overthrew him by at least five feet. Strawberry Fields kept making terrible decisions, or no decisions except to get sacked.  

     

    The Bills beat a very strong Ravens team and they refused to let down against an inferior opponent.  They play the guys on the other side of the field, and the beat them.  I don't care about stats, I care about winning, comfortably like yesterday if possible.  On to facing the Dolphins who gave it their all yesterday but lost anyway, which probably means they know their season is over.  Play tough, Bills.

    While Romo’s comment was spot on, I’d be interested to see if the league or network doesn’t have a word with him. He and Nantz together made that one of the worst broadcasts I’ve listened to in recent years. The announcers job is to keep eyeballs on screens…..not to make you question whether your time would be better spent cleaning the gutters. 

    Yeah, no.  CBS has a contract to show games, and Romo and Nance (who's usually a lot better) have contracts to show up.  Romo in particular makes a fortune whether he's broadcasting or not.  Their problem yesterday was, it was a boring game except for us!

    I think people could be a little irritated because we have been slown down and haven't had many explosive plays in this game but this has been a really efficient balanced effort by the Bills offense today. Helps that the Jets defense is exhausted because the Jets offense cant stay on the field. For as ugly as people think it is , we easily could have put up 40+ today if we needed to. 

    Could still get to 40.

    I can not put into words how happy I am that we are playing defense. Idc what the offensive game plan is. We have the best player in the NFL at QB. We are going to win a Super Bowl WHEN the D holds up. This is awesome 

    This is very nice to watch, but most teams won't screw up as badly as the Jets have, and most of the other teams have NFL caliber QBs.  Finish this game, beat the Fins, and take the mini-bye to heal.
