  1. I seriously don't understand what counts as a catch is anymore. That looked clear as day like a catch and fumble by Floyd: possession/two feet. I know there's the whole "football move" thing but I'm not sure what he did or didn't do that doesn't qualify as a football move.
  2. Saints (that's been my pick all week, not just saying it because they are dominating right now) Colts Vikes Jets
  3. I don't understand it either and quite frankly I don't understand why we have made a lot of the decisions we've made. I am so tired of hearing the excuse of "his philosophy doesn't match Buddy Nix". Billick has won a superbowl and had a lot of success as Baltimore's head coach.. I'll take his strategy over Nix's any day. At the very least we should have interviewed him.
  4. Maybe Ohio State would be middle of the road but the USC teams basically for most of the last decade (obviously not the 2009 team) I really believe would be at/near the top of any of those conferences almost every year. Keep in mind, they went into Fayetteville and routed Arkansas in 2006 when Arkansas finished as the SEC runner-up.
  5. It's funny to watch SEC fans because they get all panicky when an SEC team loses to a team from another conference. They worry if Georgia Tech beats Georgia or something similar occurs that they might not be viewed as the best conference. A lot of fans from the area actually believe that winning the SEC is a greater honor than winning the national championship.
  6. Lol, brilliant
  7. Seriously, if Billick truly does want the job and we are indeed turning him down we really do have the dumbest front office in the NFL.
  8. I did see it too, however, it wasn't called so what can be done now? I don't really feel like it is worth diminishing Arizona's win. Besides, there were a couple of plays on that drive where it looked to me like the Packers' offensive line got away with holding (they were called once, but I thought there were more plays than just that one).
  9. Classiness is overrated. If you can rub it in on a team when you are whoopin them, do it. Especially if that team is the Patriots. That whole game was so much fun to watch.
  10. Two terrible challenges by Marvin Lewis in the first quarter and now he has no more the rest of the game. Not sure why he's still a head coach.
  11. Two terrible decisions: Saban - fake punt on 4th and forever Gideon - intercepting the pass instead of knocking it down for field position
  12. The Browns/Ravens had been awful for about a decade. Billick took over and they were superbowl champions in just two years, perenial playoff contenders thereafter. I'm not understanding why this would be a bad idea.
  13. Interesting fact, the last time the Bills beat the Colts: Date - 1/2/2000, Final score - 31-6. Exactly 10 years and 1 day ago and the same total number of points (we had one less, they had one more). Just thought I'd throw that out there for anyone who was interested.
  14. Is there really anyone coming out in the draft that we are really big on? Would it really make that big of a difference whether we have a number 7 or 11 pick? I really believe that if we are serious about getting a big name coach a guy like Bill cowher would rather see us play hard till the end and not just lose a game just because we want to move up a few spots in the draft.
  15. Anyone see Brady crying just now? He was barely pushed down by a defender and then gets back up all pissed about it. What a tool.
  16. They've basically looked bad since the Saints game. They have been exposed ever since their first 4 or 5 games were against softer opponents.
  17. I don't know, could be nothing but then again the last time I remember there being this much buzz over a Bills press conference we signed TO so who knows.
  18. Dare I say it, with a better offensive line and maybe someone who can mentor him I still think Edwards has potential to be a franchise QB (of course I guess you could say that about a lot of QBs).
  19. Brady and Big Ben is splitting hairs but I still say Roethlisberger should have gone in ahead of him. But the fact that he got in over Schaub is a travesty. While it is not surprising that the NFL's love child got in it still sucks. And while Rivers got in he should have gone in ahead of Brady, but again, not surprising that Brady got in over him either.
  20. Two words: Tommy Maddox
  21. I would have thought the same thing but you don't interveiew with a team for 7 hours unless you are seriously considering them. Oh well, guess it was too good to be true.
  22. Nothing for Christmas but I bought a house a couple of months ago and my parents got me a Buffalo Bills comforter as a house-warming gift
  23. The rule used to apply in the divisional round. For example, in the 89 playoffs, Buffalo was the 2 seed and played the Houston Oilers who were the 5th seed (who beat 4th seed Cleveland in the wildcard). We played them instead of 3 seed Seattle because the #1 seed was Cincinnati and they were in the same division as Houston. However, it hasn't been this way since they went to the 6 playoff team per conference format (hence the Giants playing the Eagles in the divisional round last year.)
  24. Campbell is terrible. Just another Rob Johnson or Kyle Boller who has a good strong arm but nothing else. Sorry, but no thanks.
  25. There's really no one in the draft behind Suh who I really think is a sure-fire pick. I really don't think there's going to be much of a difference between having the 6th or 11th pick. However, I do want to show the big name coaches that we are willing to play hard till the end. I just think a Billick or Shannahan would rather see that then see a team lose out for a higher draft pick. It already sounds like Shannahan is going to Washington. Plus I'm really tired of losing to NE. We need to end this losing streak against them.
