Not an excuse thread. I think field position had a lot to do with our loss tonight, and especially our play on the defensive side of the ball. Defense is already at a disadvantage because the are reactionary, ours especially because it is aggressive and relies on a lot of man coverage. On the offensive side of the ball, the turf makes the QB battle much tougher. Ryan is a much better QB than EJ, on a tough night for receivers, Ryan can put the balls in better places for his receivers, and anticipate them better. At the end of the day, the surface exploited the fact that their skill positions are better than ours. I hate Toronto, I hope we never go back. They need to make more adjustments.

I think it is about drawing a must see team to Toronto. If the Bills had their way, I am sure that they would prefer that they play the Jags up there. Rogers would never pay for that, neither would any body looking to attend. In the contract I am sure they want a relatively decent sized market team up there. At the very least the Bills have done a decent job of keeping teams out who like to play on a fast track, which would be devastating for us. We are lucking Atlanta is having issues this year, because they are one of those teams.

Bruschi didn't make up his own statistic...haha -
Win #4 - Who gets your game ball?
Mango replied to SageAgainstTheMachine's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Kyle Williams was te most disruptive player on the field today. The guy is very quietly having a Pro Bowl season. He was in,created, or was a key contributor in every disruptive plate on defense today. He won't have a huge stat line, but he deserves every bit if credit today. -
Howard and Simon this morning with Doug Marrone
Mango replied to BuffaloBillsForever's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I generally dislike WGR. I never listen, but checked out the vault for this. I think they generally push a little bit, but Marrone's response escalated to aggressive rather quickly. It was generally an awkward conversation overall, and a little aggressive on both sides. A little cringe worthy with the get excited about our troops bit (although I agree), and the whose show is this, mine or yours. Obvious power struggles -
Ever want to see every pass play the Bills ran in a game?
Mango replied to jonramz's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
What are the notes at the top of most of the plays. Can you go through the order of each. I have an idea, but on some I see 3-10 and 1-10, so I assumed first down. But then some have 3-10, then 2-5. Just trying to see which ones where good and bad. Mostly to see if it is just my eye thinking that our passes from behind center are more effective, or if it is truth? -
EJ Manuel aiming his passes?

Why is the media not pointing the finger at Hackett?
Mango replied to MClem06's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
My biggest problem with Hackett, is the lack of plays called from behind center. We are way more successful every time we either run or pass from the direct snap. There are also a few 3rd down conversions I have watch the replays on that where head scratchers. I have watched them all, or have the pedigree that some people here have but, we will line up 2 wide and one TE on 3rd and 6 and run 2 go routes down the sideline and have the TE in the flat. I am not rewatching every play, but on important downs this type of play call is common. Why no depth in WR routes, and why not more high percentage options. The go route is more or less the lowest percentage passing play in all of football, and we are regularly sending multiples on important downs. It's this type of decision making that is driving me crazy. -
EJ Manuel aiming his passes?
Mango replied to BillsFanFromCincy2012's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I agree with the mechanics. Not sure why we never put him behind center, easier footwork there. That was also our best called game on offense. Tuel also had a better called game and was taking a number of snaps behind center. I seriously think this is the root of all our problems on the offensive side of the ball. I don't get it -
This!! The play is over when his knee is down and touched. He had possession at that point. Everything after that is irrelevant.

Realistic expectations for Tuel on Sunday?
Mango replied to KikO M G's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Just to put things in perspective. There are 32 starting quarterbacks each weak(baring a bye week). At 16 weeks per team that is 512 QB performances per year. 3 years worth of those in the NFL is 1536 QB performance put up between all teams over the course of the regular season. To be within the worst 25 of those is historically terrible. That means 98.4% of all quarterback play is better than Jeff Tuel. That's your solace in the whole situation. Being better than 1.6 percent of all quarterbacks.... It's not the absolute worse. -
depends on how he feels about Ryan Mallet

I just had a similar discussing with my aunt this past week, who is from NO. I am under the opinion that with the abismal season last year from the Saints, Peyton and Brees should not both be considered HoF. Tom Brady and Peyton Manning win more than 7 games last year with that Saints team. I know that those guys are considered the best in the business, but we are talking Hall of Fame. Manning makes every coach he has had look like an elite coach, when the fact of the matter is each one was extremely mediocre pre-Manning. If Brees is elite, NO wins more games. Period. Brees can be remembered as a very very very good QB, but he seems to be a function (to a certain extent) of Peyton at this point. So I don't buy into the look at Brees as an example for Tom Brady nonsense

Tom Brady on the decline? He is literally the only reason that team is winning games. If the decline means the best player on your team, that is currently winning its division, and also Top 3 players in the league, at your position, where all of you are going to the HoF, then yes, Tom Brady is on the decline.

12 men on field is inexcusable....
Mango replied to HelloNewman's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Especially when we get it right after a kickoff, with a COMMERCIAL BREAK. Coaching error, attention to detail -
Why Does Everyone Love Pettine So Much?

I Like This Guy. NFL Player Drives a 1991 Car
Mango replied to Geno Smith's Arm's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Not that he isn't making tons of money with appearance fee's, but wasn't it just a year or two ago he tweeted a picture with him and a porn star at his apartment. I think he is living a little higher than middle class, and not the most responsible guy with his money, maybe better than some in the league, but the guy is clearly enjoying being in his early 20's with some money, -
If Tampa waited a week they may have gotten something pretty solid for Freeman
-
He's not talking about the QB's. He is saying the front office and coaching staff don't know what they are doing, and that the team is competitive. I was just talking about this today, if you count Fitzy since he wasn't cut before the deadline, we have had 7 QB's on the team this year. I assume that is an NFL record.
-
We are carrying 5! (Plus Kolb, but he's on IR, no roster spot) EJ, Tuel, Flynn, Lewis, Dixon. I don't get it, the fact that we signed 3 QB's in a week means the staff isn't confident enough in his abilities. This goes beyond due dilligence, and makes no sense as to why we have so many. Lose Tuel, then cut one more when EJ comes back.

ESPN's Mike Rodak: Fred Jackson having a career season..
Mango replied to Kemp2Warlick's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
He's been the stability in what has been a turbulent calendar year. He has lost a step, I am grateful he is on the team. He has been our best running back. This is a testament to how good FJ has been in the past. If we lost Fred in the next week or two we would eliminate what little chances we have at winning a football game without a QB -
I was thinking the same thing. Any Given Sunday, except we don't have a stud third string QB, HoF coach, and never get good I just think of Bills fans being like Al Pacino yelling at the front office/ Cameron Diaz about how things used to be.
