  1. "This is why the NHL needs to get their crap together."
  2. Could see the Browns maybe winning but I just don't see the Cardinals beating the Niners even given how badly SF got whopped last week. Maybe we'll get lucky and neither them, Jacksonville, nor KC will want Manti Te'o.
  3. 1. College rules overtime, with a twist - No kicking. You cannot kick field goals nor extra points. On 4th down you have to go for it and after all touchdowns you have to go for 2. 2. Onside kicks have to go 15 yards before the kicking team can touch the ball. These are way too easy to recover at 10 yards. 3. A pump fake is NOT A FORWARD PASS!! If the QB loses the ball after pump-faking it's a fumble (thus finally eliminating the horrible tuck rule).
  4. True, but, the way I see it, our chances of beating Indy, then Jacksonville, then St Louis in 2000 were just as unlikely (even if the Titans almost did it). Doesn't make the loss to the Titans any less painful.
  5. Back in August I had never seen an episode of Dexter. Three months later, I am completely caught up and ready for tonight's episode. Not sure why it took me 6 years to start watching but now I love it. Question for those of you who have been following the show, back when Rita died, did the viewing audience know the actress playing her was leaving? Or was that a complete shocker to everyone at the time? I avoided the cast list on IMDB and just about anything else that might have given things away and it caught me completely by surprise.
  6. The way I see it is, I'll remember this. Pull it out when need be. If we ever win a game where we get ridiculous calls in our favor, I'll just remind everyone of games like this and say a win's a win.
  7. The PI call on Gilmore late in the first half in the end zone was probably one of the worst calls I have ever seen in all my years of watching football. And yes I am speaking objectively when I say that. First of all, anyone who could have looked at that pass and considered it even remotely catchable should not be an NFL referee. Secondly, it was clear as day Lloyd flopped like a little wimp. That play alone should cost some officials their jobs. And no, that is not an exaggeration. All that said, we did make our mistakes and aside from a couple of nice stops our defense was run over yet again.
  8. Thank you, I was hoping someone would bring up this obvious piece of information. Infact, I'd like to change the whole this is a passing league mindset to this is a passing league if you have a top flight QB. We do not. Our strength is our running game and we have two very capable backs. So use them, and show this "passing league" that you can still win games on the ground. Chan needs to know this. Teams like the Texans and Ravens might have a little something to say about that.
  9. In honor of his special day I believe Fitz will not throw a single pic or incompletion today.
  10. Not from Buffalo and even I would no longer be a fan if they moved. I don't care if the players, coaches, front office, etc all stayed the same if they moved they'd be a different team. Light years different. I'd still be an NFL fan though. I just wouldn't have loyalties to anyone.
  11. I honestly think almost any Bills team from the 90s would beat the 2012 Pats, maybe with the exception of 94 and 97.
  12. Same as before, I guess I just hold out hope that one day we will get better again. And, like the Orioles this year, I want to be able to say that I stuck with them through the hard times to get to this point.
  13. If the Panthers are willing, in a heartbeat. But I think he'd have to play like this for the rest of this season and all of next season for them to even begin to consider it.
  14. I never saw a replay on Carrington's supposed personal foul either. I wonder if they sometimes catch that these were blown calls and refuse to show them to protect the officials.
  15. Rooting for the Jets simply because I am sick to death of the Patriots.
  16. They need to bring back bud bowl. Never should have taken it away, it was the best.
  17. Sorry, but I want more than just a win. We've won games like this (some that come to mind are Jets in 09, Bengals in '10, Broncos last year). If this springboards us to a playoff run then yes, I will be more excited about this win. But if we turn around and lay an egg against the Titans next week, then it's really nothing to me. I want consistency and a regularly winning team.
  18. Doesn't this prove that his playcalling isn't good? If Fitz can't throw well shouldn't Chan know better than to throw the ball so many times in such a crucial time as OT especially when we have 2 solid backs?
  19. Arizona just has that look of a team who wins some games early then loses once and it's a downward spiral from there (sound familiar?) I could easily see us winning this game.
  20. Actually going to the bar helps get me through the games we do badly in as the Bills fans I watch with are fun to be around. We even laugh at the mistakes most of the time. Laughing at your team is therapeutic when you're losing.
  21. This ^^ At least under Jauron we had a couple of seasons where we were legitimate playoff contenders as late as December. Hasn't even come close to happening under Gailey.
  22. The Bengals last year. I mean, that is to say, if Stevie Johnson would have been rewarded with the catch he rightfully made.
  23. BS, for the money he's getting paid to play for the Bills, he better be making plays with broken bones.
