  1. We should never have cut Aaron Maybin,... he's on the highlight film sacking and forcing a fumble on Flacco last night. Unbelievable,... he's now officially outplaying Shawn Merriman on the year, WTF???
  2. +1
  3. Yeah, I was hoping for better from the defense. Its annoying that Leodis McKelvin, Torrell Troup and Alex Carrington our top Defensive picks in the previous 3 year can't earn starting jobs on such a suspect defense. All three of these guys should have risen to be starters by now.
  4. Oh yeah,... I was trying to stay positive as long as they're winning
  5. D is being exposed... not good at all
  6. You know Darren McFadden was being considered a bust at this point in his Raider career. He didn't break out until last year (year #3), similar to Eric Moulds. Spiller has shown some capability, just not consistently enough yet. Lets just let him grow and see what happens.
  7. This is the nuttiest article I've could imagine... got to automatically discount James Walkers viewpoints going forward http://espn.go.com/blog/afceast/post/_/id/32066/thoughts-on-aaron-maybin-re-joining-jets
  8. Yeah, that... I was bitchin' about the lack of blitzing all game. It just doesn't make sense to rely on him making enough mistakes.
  9. I disagree,... I think we'll see good results from the formation during the course of the year. We were talking about this during the game and I just don't think the right down/distance situations were coming up to use it strategically. I think we're keep seeing it in the right scenarios. They're going to have to show that they can successfully through out of the formation in order to keep it effective.
  10. 8pm on NFL Network for those who want to see the game again... or for the 2-3 people who missed it!
  11. What a difference a year (or several makes) in the tenor of the discussion... I recall a bunch of Monday's that felt like this article below. http://www.miamiherald.com/2011/09/26/2426131/miami-dolphins-coach-tony-sparano.html Nice to see the media hunting for answers on the Monday press conference!
  12. ... it also helped that Ochocinco dropped that perfectly thrown TD pass, otherwise we'd be back to your 3-1
  13. Absolutely hysterical reading all of this chatter!! Good call!! I would have never thought it, but happy I kept my mouth shut on this thread... still laughing!
  14. Yep,... I was scratching my head too. He was the only one to pick the Bills on the panel to win.
  15. Great combination... watching the Pats sideline sit helpless while the clock runs down that last minute and a half was pretty awesome. More cameras on the Pats sideline needed on that one... perhaps a sideline reporter getting an interview/reaction?? The excitement plays as well w/ the Pick 6 and Fred Jackson catch were electric!
  16. I was in Munich, Germany last week during the Raider game. Be advised that you can buy NFL games through NFL's Game Pass if you're out of the country and watch on your computer. BTW,... Oktoberfest in Munich is absolutely wild if you've never been there. For this week game,... will be at Buffalo Wild Wings with my boys in suburban Richmond, VA
  17. No love for the Levy/Jauron show, but we should recognize that Stevie, Fred Jackson, Fitz, Kyle Williams, Demetrious Bell, Eric Wood and Andy Levitre all came from their drafts, undrafted FAs and Free Agent signings. As much as its fair to criticize their misses, their additions are the core of the team and the main reasons for the success we're seeing now.
  18. Really? 1 INT wipes out a nearly 300yd passing advantage? Plus from what I understand the situation also counts. Throwing a 99yd TD when you're trapped on your own 1 yd line seems like you get bonus points for that Still puzzled...
  19. Yep,... I'm just scratching my had about the same thing. In what aspect did Fitz outperform Brady? Its not clear from the numbers they give..
  20. Very well said.... particularly the part about "our collective sphincters" tightening
  21. ... sorry still working off of last year's paradigm!
  22. Yep, if the Steelers beat the Bengals 41-7, there would be plenty to say about how dominating the Steelers are Naw, we're all happy we just want to climb out of the 30s in the Power Rankings... wait till you hear what its like around here if we're not at least 19. Everyone will say that half the teams won, half lost so we should be at least 16... how can we still be ranked lower than the Colts. And so on...
  23. Hopefully he and the OL will find their consistency this year. They're all very young players, if they can stay consistent our OL can perhaps by set for a number of years. Last week somebody posted a YouTube clip of the 25th anniversary of Jim Kelly's debut with the Bills. In the opening of the game they flashed up the "mediocre" OL that Kelly may have to "struggle" behind... the punch line was that the linemen were Will Wilford (rookie), Kent Hull, Mike Devlin, Jim Richter and Ken Jones. Hysterical characterization in hindsight. Hopefully we'll be able to say the same about this OL in a few years.
  24. I can imagine Smith to Chandler being a big play on 3rd and short in the coming weeks. Big, forgiving target who allows them to mix the run and pass w/ credibly out of the wildcat.
  25. I didn't see the game yesterday, but a bit confused about who's playing Strong Safety, is it Wilson or Scott? There's plenty of reference to both of them in the write-ups... as well as Jarius Byrd. 'Supp w/ that?
