  1. He is also the guy who brought Kelly to Buffalo from the USFL.
  2. Owners do not get into the hall of fame because of the success of their teams, its for "contirbutions" to the game. By your logic, Kraft and Jones are shoe ins and have done absolutely nothing but take from the game and in fact have tried to destroy what has been make successful by owners like RW who see the greater good.
  3. That is the truth that most so called "fans" don't want to hear.
  4. Then stop posting here and go away.
  5. The presence or absence of our "best" offensive lineman is hardly even noticeable game to game, we lost more games with him in the lineup than with him out. Luckily, the rest of the league considers him premium. If we can get max value for this malcontent, grab it and get more talent at impact positions like a solid DE.
  6. What you don't seem to realize is that outside of your little personal cocoon is that Ralph owns this team and can do with it as he pleases. No one is forcing you to watch, buy or support, there are 32 teams in this league, find an owner you can embrace. The majority of Bill's fans are just that...Bill's fans and support their team through thick and thin. Those who have seen good times and bad times and realize that both occur in both sports and life. Not to say that they aren't critical, that too is part of being a fan, but the Bills are their team and that runs deep.
  7. It may not be the worst but it is sure one of the dumbest ever.
  8. Awful lot of people on this board tonight who feel they are entitled. Go ahead, teach your kids that the world owes them something and that loyalty, hard work and difficult decisions are to be avoided.
  9. IF Fred was healthy and didn't even get a touch, this coaching staff should not be allowed to recross the border.
  10. As far as I can tell Feddy did not play today. Anyone know anything/
  11. 'cause it's easier to blame the coaches and coordinators. Can't possibly be that the players drop balls, miss assignments, have mental lapses or just play flat.
  12. When will people get off the Ralph is cheap crap. According to Fox Sports (http://msn.foxsports.com/nfl/team/detroit-lions/salary) and verified in USA Today, the Bills rank 17th in total payroll with a lot of worse teams ahead of them and lot of better teams behind them. Ralph has spent but has not always gotten his money's worth and if you look at this list ie. Raiders, Browns, spending does not equate to success.
  13. I've been a diehard Bills fan since the beginning in 60 and never have I been as disappointed in a performance as in the one I witnessed today. In a game that was basically make or break for the season, these guys played with zero intensity, no urgency and nada emotion. And that my friends is not on the coaching, it is on the players themselves. Time after time we hear ex-players say that the emotion and intensity has to come from within, coaches can't provide it. The great Thurman Thomas stated this just last week on his radio spot and be serious, Marv was certainly no rah-rah in your face coach. This is not high school, not college, motivation is from your own pride and professionalism. The game plan was good enough (350 yds of offense), the mistakes (dropped passes, penalties, bad punts, missed assignments, poor execution) destroyed any chance of it working. The defense was adequate (gave up a measly 195 yards) and even made a huge stop when needed most, then the offense fell on their collective face. The kicking game stunk. Until this bunch assumes responsibility for their own destiny and develops some attitude and swagger, they will continue to be a talented but inconsistent team and the Buffalo fans deserve better.
  14. Amazing how all it took was one single long throw and Trent's confidence came pouring on back. First downfield pass in 4 or 5 weeks, should have come a lot sooner. Edwards played like a pro today, albiet against a bad team, but that was just what he needed, now he must carry this forward to the remainder of the season.
  15. Especially since the Jets had 7 and 8 in the box all day. At one point they had the inside LB literally shoulder to shoulder. They were ripe for pitches and quick screens and we banged the middle all day...pretty stupid.
  16. Agree. Trent has to learn that a QB in this league has to earn his place each and every week, there is no room for regressing or bad days in a 16 game schedule. Maybe just me, but kneeling with 19 seconds left in the first half and letting 15 seconds go at the end of the third quarter just shows that this team is playing and being coached with no sense or urgency. In this league, you need to take advantage of each and every opportunity, you never know when something may break your way and giving away plays is just plain dumb.
  17. I though the first series set the tone for a miserable day. Move the ball down the field, bog down in the red zone then kick a FG on 4th and less than a yard. That early in a game after getting scorched on their first drive, go for it, percentages say you will get it in and even if you don't you leave them inside the one and again percetnages say are you'll hold and end up with good field postion again. To me that sent a message to the team and the opponent that we would play safe today, and they took advantage of it.
  18. Man, there are not enough quality LOT's in the league, let alone enough quality backups. The Bill's did the absolute right thing by getting Peter's signed to a long term contract, and 2 years in he's balking!? Get real Jason, get in camp and wait your turn, the Bills owe you nothing at this point.
  19. Breathtaking, Never before has so much been wasted.......till some idiot on the west coast made NC the highest paid defensive player EVER!
  20. Just like Bill's fans talked about Glenn Parker who went on to play 7 more seasons and was voted the team MVP by his KC teammates and just like they talked about Ruben Brown who followd that talk up with a trip to the Super Bowl and Pro Bowl.
  21. They don't have to do anything, they're the Patriots! Hate their team, hate their city, hate their fans, hate everything about 'em! Coincidentally, same can be said about the Fish and the Jests.
