  1. Bring back Wade and lift the playoff jinx! Second choice - "The Coach" Chuck Dickerson. Who loves ya baby!
  2. Agree, Hard Knocks would be better than the disgusting Toronto Series
  3. You're assuming the Defense couldn't have been better without Driesbach. How do you know this?
  4. Marshawn rushed for over 1,000 yards in his first two seasons with the Bills with almost 1,300 all-purpose yards with Trent & JP as QB, so you have pretty tough standards if that qualifies as "terrible".
  5. Peyton Manning/Andrew Luck couldn't have anything to do with that....
  6. Agreed, if we're being objective (and not biased Bills fans), the ball does not go forward. Maybe 15 years from that date we can finally say we're back in the playoffs!
  7. This team needs to figure out how to stop the run. Yesterday's game was embarrassing.
  8. My interpretation of the OP's point is that the Toronto series needs to end, meaning in "the future". The series exists for no other reason besides money. Even when the Bills play a game there that could lead to being in the playoffs, almost half the crowd is cheering for the opponent and the Toronto media proceeds to say after the game how they aren't ready to accept the Bills until they start winning. Does that kind of fan base deserve even one home game a year from your Buffalo Bills? Folks can argue about whether the Bills woulda or coulda been in the playoffs if this or that happened this year. But, removing the Toronto series in the future is something that could be even the slightest difference-maker in getting a win to be in the playoffs or not, win the division or not, get a bye or not, etc.
  9. So because Kiko has been really good at MLB, folks should be banned because they question whether he might be even better at OLB? As at least one poster has also pointed out, even the coaches are on record as stating this about Kiko.
  10. While the Bills certainly need to take care of their own business, it would be really helpful to their cause if Miami can beat the Jets this week and if Baltimore can beat Pittsburgh this week. This would help us to control our own Wild Card destiny within the division, and we need Baltimore to be better positioned to win the Central division Wild Card tiebreaker (since we beat them head-to-head). Obviously lots of other matchups too, but I look at these at the biggest for the Bills in Week 13.
  11. so the bills win 23-0, and espn now projects them to go 11-5 with 86% chance, instead of 12-4 with 60-something percent chance....
  12. While I'm skeptical of the pass rush too, I don't think the fact that we have no proven backup at QB is a fair reason to think a team cannot win the Super Bowl. Teams win the Super Bowl often without having to rely on a backup QB.
  13. Come on. Miami was able to put up 24 against the Pats at home. I think our Bills have a WAY better offense than Miami (O-Line, RBs, WRs & QB). In addition, NE's offense will be missing Aaron Hernandez this week, one of the key weapons that Brady has been able to rely on the first two weeks. Pats beat Miami 38-20. I think we will see the Bills use up the clock on some long drives, as our offense is better suited to do than Miami's. This game finishes in the 27-24 range. I'll say Bills on top!
  14. Yes, but Maybin will not actually park the car. His roll will be to open the drivers side door after the vehicle has been parked, with a celebratory flexing of his mussels in suing.
  15. If Luck is the guy we want, do we even have to worry about competing with Carolina & Dallas for that pick? Carolina drafted Clausen in last year's draft. To pick Luck would be an admission that they already have doubts about Clausen. With Dallas, they have Romo, so I don't see them looking to draft a guy like Luck at this point. Granted, another team could trade up with Carolina or Dallas though. But, maybe we don't necessarily need the top pick to draft Luck? The biggest question with Luck is probably whether he ends up entering the draft or not.
  16. jets O is in for a long season. as inconsistent as we are going to be, we're going to at least have some games where our players break a couple long ones.
  17. if we're going to suck, glad to have the jets in our company
  18. wow - i don't know who is worse now - Trent or Sanchez...
  19. it is tough, not sure who would be after spikes or before him. i wouldn't even have thought of spikes if someone else hadn't mentioned him, but he was that good for a short period of time. maybe it depends how someone defines "star" - in the sense of popularity around the league, TO is a "star". if "star" also includes production, then scratch TO from the list of recent "star" Bills.
  20. Agreed. The Pats will probably prove me completely wrong, but they've had a lot of injuries and are aging in several areas of their team (RB, O-line, secondary) and could be weak this year. That being said, if all of the draft picks they've had recently pan out, they may not see a drop-off this season at all. I would love to see Belicheck fail though.
  21. Spiller is the only reason I have any hope for the Bills this season...
  22. This isn't the first time Donte has made some type of guarantee. The key thing to note here is that his guarantees normally don't work out.
