  1. It's so rare not playing at 1PM I guess I just assume that we always do haha
  2. I'll never be able to root for a Bills loss. Even if we enter week 17 at 5-10, I'll watch every single snap and be rooting for a W just as hard as I do every other game.
  3. Oh we definitely need the three wins and it definitely starts there, but if we get the win in the early game make sure you're 'gulp' ... Rooting for Dallas in the 4PM game.
  4. Title says it all. With the Cincy win tonight we will be officially out of it with a Steelers win against Dallas. Root for a Dallas win this week, then Pittsburgh over Cincy, followed by Pittsburgh and Cincy losses in the final week.
  5. I'm surprisingly okay with Nix as GM. I think the talent on this team is 100 times better than when he took over. Even Fitz at QB can work. Gailey needs to go now though. Worst decisions ever.
  6. Sell Kelly's investment group the team and make Tressel head coach.
  7. This is the most frustrating part of this loss (besides being in FG range and not kicking and then having to try to get in FG range with 48 seconds left). How is it even fathomable to give Spiller 7 carries and one target through the air. I would love some stability in the front office and coaching staff but not when decisions like this are being made. Clean house tonight.
  8. Forgot about those commercials!! Always loved 'em!
  9. I knew someone would love the idea!
  10. With all of the injuries to our offensive line it would make since to bring Jasper.... Ahhhhh just screwing around, but somewhat surprised I haven't seen this as a serious post.
  11. So Edwards placed James Carpenter on IR?? Horrible writing.
  12. Exactly! Stupid to go to TJ a day after talking about how he doesn't play more because he can't be trusted to run routes properly. Have to go to Stevie, CJ, or Chandler in that situation.
  13. I was one that was a little upset when Bell left town. I always thought he was very talented. After watching him tonight on MNF I'm glad he never played another snap for us. His play is atrocious and his penalties are killing any momentum the Eagles manage to get. Remember when our O-Line was one of the worst in the league? I think I know what part of the problem was. BTW he's at RT tonight not LT.
  14. So this means that since we already used our bad 50% on Losman that no matter who we take in the first will be a stud! That's how percentages and probabilities and odds work, right?
  15. This times 1000. Barkley is definitely not the answer. Plus, what has any USC QB ever done in the NFL to make us think we should take a chance on one? Leinert, Sanchez, Palmer? No thanks! Actually, the Bills even tried it once, for a pretty steep price I might add. His name was Rob Johnson. How'd that work out for us? We badly need a QB of the future, but for the love of everything good in this world drafting Barkley may be too much for me to handle as a Bills fan, and I'm still optimistic that Fitz will light it up the second half of the season.
  16. So essentially you want Steve Fairchild to be our Offensive Coordinator again?
  17. Ridiculous that we cannot run the clock out when we have a lead late.
  18. The Braves got me on the board in 1995! Although I was only 11 years old at the time I remember it being sweet because my best friend was an Indians fan. My first championship during my adult life was the Penguins in 2009! I'm sure I'll get a lot of hate about that on this board. I never watched hockey until I went away to college, which happened to be just north of Pittsburgh, and of course every Penguins game was always on TV, thus I became a Pens fan starting in roughly 2002. I'm still waiting on the Bills to win a Super Bowl and the Purdue Boilermakers to pull out either a NCAA football or basketball championship. It appears as though I'll be waiting a long time.
  19. Exactly! Glad I got an agreement before a "Fitz sucks" comment. I would also love to see more of the split backs formation with Freddy and CJ setting up simultaneously on opposite sides of the field for a catch and run out of the backfield.
  20. Looking at this list, I'm not exactly sure SI understands the meaning of underrated.
  21. So this article was just posted on ESPN http://espn.go.com/b...rick-throw-deep Here is what I do not get. Johnson and Jones both often beat their man within the first 10 yards off the line (I looked for links to video of this but could not find them...sorry). So for now this is based on my observations from watching every snap of every game on a 60'' plasma. Why do we then wait to try to connect on a pass that has to travel 50 yards through the air, which we know Fitz cannot throw with any consistency (or at all). Why not design plays to hit our receivers 15 yards out with room to run instead of attempting to throw that deep. There is a much better chance to drop the ball over a WRs shoulder at 15 yards than there is at 50 yards. And yes, at that point they would still have to beat the safety, but it is better than our WRs stopping or having to come back to the ball because it didn't make it all the way to them. Actually, we don't even have to design these plays. We alreay have these plays. I see them often. Instead of the getting the ball out to them though Fitz waits for them to run another 35 yards then tries to hit the homerun. It just does not make sense to me. If our receivers beat their cover guy they have the speed and/or moves to then beat the safety. The yards are there to be had, we just need to take them.
  22. I was actually hoping GB would give us a call about Freddie and the real Spiller era would begin with White as the change of pace and short yardage back. The guy runs so physical and hard. And, don't get me wrong about Freddie. I love the guy and have always been a huge fan, but as they say, it's a business. At the end of the day our best chance to win is Spiller touching the ball 20 to 25 times a game.
  23. First of all, it blows my mind Chan makes the call to not kick a FG from 53 in OT. Second, why do we have a kick-off specialist that rarely kicks it out of the back of the end zone (like he was kept to do) and a FG kicker that we don't trust to kick from over 50? If a kicker can't consistently hit from 50+ there is should be no place for them in the NFL.
  24. I agree. When Kelsay has his hand down on the line he can be very good.
