Upcoming 30 for 30 on Bills Super Bowl run in 90s
Talley56 replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
To each their own, I respect your opinion. I still think having to go through Marino in our division and Elway in the conference as well as Marty Schottenheimer coached KC made it pretty tough (though maybe not the same as having to go through the Steelers and Raiders of the 70s). I think the AFC as a whole was tougher than the NFC. It's just the lone best team was always in the NFC. As far as the home-field advantage keep in mind we had to go through 8 road games every year to earn that advantage. -
Upcoming 30 for 30 on Bills Super Bowl run in 90s
Talley56 replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
If it's about their run then I hope it focuses more on the run itself than the SB losses. Many great highlights including the comeback and the 1991 divisional playoff track meet between Kelly and Marino. Getting to the SB from the AFC in those days wasn't easy with the likes of Marino and the Dolphins, Elway and the Broncos, the Chiefs, Raiders, and Oilers all had SB caliber teams. -

So does this mean Chip Kelly is going to trade for him? -
Bills are 18th in ESPN power rankings
Talley56 replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
To be honest, the only two teams ahead of us who I think should be below us are Miami and Carolina. The only reason Carolina is ahead of us is because they won a soft division last year. -
"Knowing OUR luck as Buffalo teams" should end now
Talley56 replied to TheFunPolice's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
It's nice that the Bills made aggressive moves during the off-season. The best change that has been made has been the fact that for the first time in a while they seem to be going as all out as they can to build a winning team instead of just adding this piece or that piece and hoping it works out. That said, I still think it's a wait and see as to whether or not hiring Rex and trading Kiko for LeSean were good moves. Three years ago we signed Mario and that seemed to be a team-changing move only to watch our defense look as abysmal as usual. So, again, big moves, but I am waiting to see them turn into success, wins, playoff appearances, etc before I'm ready to say that things are turning around. And the fact that the team is staying in Buffalo when it just as easily could have been bought by someone who was ready to move it is certainly a sign of positive things to come. -
Kiper Jr. - 'Bills draft was the WORST of all 32 teams.'
Talley56 replied to #34fan's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I'm fine with the Ronald Darby pick. DB depth is important especially considering a couple years back when we were thin at DB and got lit up by Geno Smith. Yes, GENO SMITH. -

Hutson Mason is still out there. -
If you had to start dating today. God forbid.

I would want her to be a Jets or Dolphins fan. The banter would be fun. But not a Pats fan, I don't need her winning every time. -

Found a mistake - under the PRIMETIME BILLS section with the Jacksonville Jaguars. That game was in 2001 not 2011 and while the score is right the Bills actually won that game. http://www.pro-football-reference.com/boxscores/200110180jax.htm

What change would you make if you were commissioner?
Talley56 replied to Dragonborn10's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Put an end to the London series. Teams shouldn't have to sacrifice a home game (with the Jets getting to play a "road" game in their own stadium against the Giants and a "road" game vs the Dolphins in London they basically only have 6 actual road games this year). -

Talley56 replied to Dragonborn10's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I'd make overtime like college where both teams start from the 25 but the only exception being no kicking would be allowed. No field goals allowed and if you score a TD you have to go for 2. I think this is the most fair way to determine a winner in OT and I believe removing kicking would decrease the likelihood of it going to like 3, 4, or more overtimes. -

Devin Mccourty won us that game by tackling Fred Jackson at the 1. -
Lack of home primetime games - per Bills NOT by request
Talley56 replied to JÂy RÛßeÒ's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
While I certainly agree with this it makes me wonder how Cleveland got a home MNF game. -
Espn NFL Nation reporters predict 5-11 season for Bills
Talley56 replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
5-11? What are they thinking? This team is 2-14 at best But seriously, I don't think too many people are going to start taking us seriously until we become a perennial playoff contender. Fine by me though, what matters is our actual record. I recall no one giving us a chance in the week 1 game @ Chicago last year and yet by the end of the season we were clearly the better team than the Bears. -
My only complaint isn't with the Bills' schedule, it's fact that the Patriots get to play the Steelers while Le'veon Bell is suspended. But can't complain about our schedule. We get a MNF game!
-
The point is it's nothing to get excited over. That just because a QB is being recognized for doing well during the offseason doesn't mean he's truly gotten better.
-
I sort of recall hearing similar things in past offseasons about Trent Edwards and Ryan Fitzpatrick "he's throwing the ball better" "looks more poised", etc.

Favorite moment as a Bills fan
Talley56 replied to Kirby Jackson's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Even though this is a trendy pick I'd say The Comeback. On a personal note, I was the only Bills fan in a room full of people who mostly didn't care about the Bills and were making fun of me (not being from Buffalo I stood alone in my fanhood many times as a kid). It made it that much sweeter when they came back and won. Another one that comes to mind would be the 31-0 beat down of NE in 2003. If Rex can lead us to better years then I guess hiring him will be one of my favorite moments as well but that is yet to be determined. -
What do you think the bills record will be next year?
Talley56 replied to Joshua25's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I think the NFC North is better than the NFC East but I'm thinking about the same record-wise given the new coaching staff and lack of a trustworthy QB. -

Would anyone be willing to watch it until Steve Christie makes the go-ahead field goal then turn it off after that? Could just pretend. -
