  1. I don't think Anderson has any interest being a coach. Judging from what he was doing when the Bills pulled him off the scrapheap to come to Buffalo he didn't have any interest in actually playing either. Now I can see how he would have had an interest in a 3rd string backup /mentor for Allen job as the Bills probably enticed him with that job description. They probably prefaced it as "easy gig"," we've already got Nate Peterman as backup", you'll never see the field" type stuff. Then when Allen got hurt and Peterman proved to be a disaster, they HAD to put in Anderson. Maybe Anderson felt slightly double crossed? In any case, I doubt he comes back here.
  2. As much as I loved that team, the players, the comeback and all the other great games and entertainment they gave me in those years, I cannot forgive them for losing those 4 SBs. The lack of poise, preparedness, discipline and clutch they showed in those games will forever haunt me. They should have won EVERY one of those SB games and they just choked as a unit (coaches and players) in all of them. As for the Op's question. He's probably right about the Bills having that honour. No other team has made it to 4 in a row so beating the previous 3 winners in the season after the SB loss #3 would only be possible for them. I do remember that game in Dallas in 1993 when they beat the Cowboys 13-10 in a defensive struggle. In some ways I felt vindicated after all my Bills hating friends said they weren't in the same league as the Cowboys after the SB destruction. Then again it was like salt in the wound! The Bills could do it against a great team, just not when the pressure was maxed and it mattered!
  3. That's the softest zone I have ever seen!
  4. 5 guys open for the most accurate, quickest reader of defenses QB ever? What a defensive scheme!! It almost looks like Sutton took a suitcase of money to throw the game with that kind of defense!
  5. As a dark horse I think Pee-Pee Diarrheastein Poopypants Esquire would be a great late round selection.
  6. NO OTHER TEAMS...…….. ONLY ZUUULLLLLLLL..... sorry I mean PANTHERS...…….
  7. I really don't understand why he was retained after last year. Apparently he is good pals with Reid but he was awful last year and even worse this year. They should have pulled the plug on Sutton even before the 1/2 way mark, Maybe right after the Pats torched them the first time but definitely after the Rams game. I know that changing a coordinator mid season doesn't work probably 90% of the time but seriously how could a new guy have been any worse. Sutton's in game adjustments were non existent. Perhaps he was lacking the personnel but that begs the question why continue with the same scheme?? On Sunday, I saw a defense that could not rise to make a single stop when it mattered, that couldn't get a touch let alone a sack on a 41 year old hardly elusive QB. The overtime drive was especially painful to watch because the defense was gassed, banged up and had absolutely no belief left. You would have thought that Reid or Sutton would have grasped this and taken as many defensive timeouts as possible. No they didn't bother. I was also wondering why they weren't subbing in people regularly. Even the 2nd string backups at all positions could not have been worse than that tired group who were getting dissected on every play, but once again no. They could have had the defensive players feign injury ala BB in SB 25 vs us but once again both Reid and Sutton did nothing. Overall one of the weakest performances in clutch situation I have ever witnessed.
  8. Im sure you can come up with lots of reasons that the CFL "blows" but the ability to challenge PI is definitely not one of them.
  9. I honestly think as bad sportsmanship as this sounds, the Rams must hit Brady early, often, low, high and especially late. As good as the Oline for the Pats is, it doesn't explain how pathetic a job both the Chiefs and Chargers were at getting to Brady. Both those defensive coordinators should be looking for work right now (and probably should never work again). Yes Brady is the Goat, yes he's got a fast release, but he's 41 f'ing years old. No amount of diet, working out and conditioning can stop your middle aged muscles from starting to seize up from a consistent bruising and pounding that results from sacks and hits after a pass. But yet both the Chiefs and Chargers barely laid a caress on Brady in those games. If I was Wade, I would be dialing up as many bring the house blitzes as possible early and pound Brady. And if Suh should accidentally pile drive Brady or step on his ankle well that would be very unfortunate.
  10. Its funny the stupid things that you remember about these mostly useless former coaches! I cannot remember important items in a shopping list but a quote from reanimated corpse Jauron from more than a decade ago? no problem!
  11. Was that the game where Jauron said that he looked into Lindell eyes and somehow knew that "He didn't have it" so he didn't kick the FG?
  12. I'll go back to Wade Wade - 2000 week 15 vs the Colts when the Bills were still in the playoff race and Wade said "we're out of it", basically gave up. Gregg - I knew this guy was a blowhard even before he started his first game, when at his opening press conference, he told us that "this team can win the SB" and then proceeded to go 3-13. Something about him didn't pass the smell test even BEFORE the season started. Mularkey - Week 17 in 2004. With the playoffs on the line, Mularkey loses to the Steelers scrubs in the last game of the season. Jauron- week 11 in 2007. The Pats destroyed the Bills and kept going for 2 after every TD, just to be Aholes. They also left Brady in the game up by 30 pts. Jauron instead of getting angry and ordering the Bills to man up, just stared into space, totally clueless and turtled for BB. I don't think I have ever been so angry as a Bills fan. Chan - Week 17 2011. The Bills get destroyed by the Pats at Gillette again. Chan finishes his 2nd losing season. St.Doug - I didn't really get rubbed the wrong way by Marrone until maybe the Raiders game in Marrone's 2nd season. Still he left before I really got a chance to want him gone. Rex - Week 12 vs KC in 2015, Rex took bad advice from his on field preacher man to throw/ not throw the challenge flag. Just clueless. The Jury is still out on McD but the Chargers INT fest and starting Peterman may be the watershed moment.
  13. I don't see what the big fuss is about slightly changing the overtime rule. Just guarantee 1 possession for each offense in OT UNLESS the Defense scores a TD then the game is over right there, no need for the scoring offense to have their possession. If both teams were guaranteed one possession and they both scored the same FG or TD, THEN it becomes sudden death with whoever scores the next pts winning it. If they applied these rules yesterday, the Chiefs would have got the ball after NE had scored their TD and probably scored themselves to tie it. They probably eventually lose the game anyway because their defense couldn't have stopped a tumble weed by the end of last night's game.
  14. How much were the Chiefs impacted by the loss of Hunt yesterday? I could not help but wonder that as I saw their sputtering offense in the first half. This idiot damaged his team's chances throughout the season and yesterday with his reckless and criminal behaviour. Yesterday he might have made the difference and we might have seen the Pats ended but NOOOOO!! The Pats once again get a break as fate intervenes!!
  15. The Pats run has further exacerbated the "we have a black cloud over our heads" that many Bills fans (myself included) have had at one time or another. After the SB run of the Bills in 90s, I often thought to myself what are the chances that a Bills team as good as that could go to the SB, 4 years in a row and lose in such a painful way every time? How is it possible that in those 4 games we never caught a break, had a good bounce or a gust of wind to make a FG good etc. It almost seemed like a Hex had been put against us. However, karma, a vindictive God, Satan, the universe whatever wasn't through with us. Because to follow that crushing pain and disappointment up, we have had to endure: The Pats MEGA DYNASTY. what are the chances that a team in our division would get a late draft round HOF QB, the GOAT? What are the chances that they would win as many SBS and division titles as they have done? What are the chances that Brady would play at such a consistent HOF level and only get injured for 1 season and play into his 40s? What are the chances that this would be combined with a coach who was also the GOAT? It honestly has to be worse odds than winning the lottery for ALL those things to happen to us in 30 years of being a fan of a team. Bills fans are like the Biblical Job. We are good people forced to endure an unending nightmare to test our faith in our loyalty to our team!! Maybe one day it will be all worth it, but it doesn't feel that way right now!
  16. That was Hayes team mate Fred Belitnikof's nick name "Sticky hands". I can still remember from childhood seeing the guy lathering his hands with stickum on the sideline.
  17. Thanks for posting this, I just wanted to confirm he was offside. His hand looks like it is touching the ground actually closer to yard line than even where the ball is spotted. An absolutely inexcusably stupid mistake that cost KC the game.
  18. The beauty of these network announcers is that for the most part (with the exception somewhat of Romo) they actually believe that the refs do a great job and are competent. They actually assume most of the calls, spots of the ball are correct. They actually seem, surprised when the refs screw up, when in actual fact it happens multiple times a game.
  19. The crucial offside on the KC defender had a suspiciously skewed angle on the replay. I'm not saying he wasn't offside but Why didn't we get a replay from scrimmage sideline camera right at the line of scrimmage? One of the biggest plays of the game and only one bad angle replay. That's just bad production on CBS.
  20. I bet Andy Reid is happy that he saved those timeouts in overtime. They will come in handy in the off season.
  21. Both Brady and Edelman are superb at what they do, dbags yes but superb. But the Chiefs Pass D looked like a college unit out there. They got fooled on every juke, fake and cut. One of the worst performances I have ever seen.
  22. nantz is strongly resisting the urge to fellate Tommy boy on national Tv!
  23. Un f**ing believable. Only the Atlanta Falcons D in the SB comes close to this pathetic excuse for a KC defense. A big FU to the officials for handing the game to the Pats with the bogus roughing the passer call, A 2nd FU to choker Andy Reid who doesn't bother to call a timeout to regroup his exhausted defense in OT and loses yet another big game. Thanks KC for inflicting yet another Pats SB on us. Win or lose, its 2 weeks of Pats, TOM, BILL, KRAFT and all the nauseating hype that rolls along with them.
  24. Im calling Edelman on this 3rd down
  25. Edelman again, total shocker!!
