Just in Atlanta

Are you kidding? His look is 100 percent stoner. His eyes look baked even when he's not getting sacked 10 times in a game. And Billy Joe Hobert's knowledge of the playbook.

And the stoner aloofness of Jay Cutler.

The toughness of Jim Kelly. The smarts of Fitzpatrick. The completeness of Rodgers. The tactical expertise of P. Manning. The swagger of Joe Namath The mobility of Griffin. Jim Fitzrodmanath III. ...Or a Fitzpatrick who can throw good.

That's why our defense is putrid? Gap control? Sounds like a Prince song. Is that what Wanny means by "fit it up?" Seriously--why can't we have a two-gap system in a 4-3? Our D sucked in a 3-4. It sucks even worse in a 4-3. I really don't understand all of this. Seems to me it's a simple case of our D line not getting any pressure, teams adjusting properly, and Wanny not having the ability to play the chess game with solid O coordinators. Twice, teams have exploited our pass heavy D, with one or two LBs, with a run attack. Three times, our philosophy of not blitzing has bit us in the ass. Seems to me this is a simple lack of ferociousness by the D line, poor play calling, stubborn committal to philosophy, and the inevitable mistakes of two young CBs.

WNY, after that game, it went downhill for the Bills. Hopefully, this game is the opposite. I have good feelings about it. Desert healing and all. Two straight weeks of humiliation. Believe it or not, I'm actually considering starting the Bills D in my fantasy league. Fully aware of the potential stupidity of that...but like I said, call it a feeling.

Didn't you hear the coaches? It's neither the DC or the talent. The problem is not having "mental toughness." And not "fitting it up." We get mental toughness and fit it up, we'll be right as rain.

That is the magic zone. The .8 seconds in which Fitz becomes an elite QB. Could happen.

...I would, however, give the Bills the slight edge over actual cardinals. Religious or avian variety.

Unless things drastically change in six days, the Bills won't beat the St. Louis Cards.

Good thing we got rid of Merriman. He just wasn't up to snuff. Even though the measly few games he played in last year, he had more impact than the entire D line combined this year. FU Wannstedt, or whoever is making the calls. You actually made this defense worse. How--with the addition of Williams, Anderson and Gilmore--I don't know. But you did it. This could be the worst D in the league and the worst in my Bills watching life. I actually thought it was going to be one of the best. WTF.

9) He did it AGAIN!!! Wanny had 1 f-----g linebacker on the field on 3rd and 5, with approx 5 1/2 minutes left in the 3rd quarter. Of course, they ran it down our throats. This. I thought I noticed some lack of guys--again--in the middle. Thought he'd learn his lesson after the NE debacle. F'ng despicable this coach is.

We just need to "fit the gap" and get some "mental toughness." Once we find those things, then we gonna be special.

Good grief. This could be the worst hire ever. How can we still let him run this pitiful defense? Analog is a good analogy. The 8-track makes this guy look out of date.

Brain cancer. Lung cancer. Stomach cancer. Bladder cancer. Skin cancer. Prostate cancer. Add a million other diseases. But the NFL focuses on breast cancer. All month. The pink thing, for four games, is overkill, ineffective, arbitrary, and obnoxious.

Abandon all hope, all ye who follow this turd of a team. Fitz is actually getting worse; he coud be the most inaccurate QB in the NFL. Wannstedt is clueless. The D line can't sack Lindsay Lohan. When she's passed out. Can't believe I fell for the hype...again.

This thread is so...gay.

I'd rather talk about how Donte is going to get lit up on Sunday by the Bills O, than his penchant for chicken sandwiches and waffle fries.

And boom goes the dynamite.

This whole anti Chick-fil-A thing is bogus. It's well known it's a Christian-oriented private company. I've met the Cathys. They're decent people. An executive, the president, was asked his opinion on gay marriage by a Christian publication. He gave his opinion. The "tolerance" crowd saw the quote, and blew it up into a dishonest fiasco. You can support gay marriage, you may not. Whatever. The whole anti Chick-fil-A stance is hypocritical to the extreme--we support tolerance...unless you disagree with us...then we won't tolerate you. We saw this mentality in Chicago with the mayor trying to ban the restaurant, as well as in Boston. Besides...it's just a freakin chicken sandwich. So what if he likes to eat there.

"Just fit it up, baby!" - Dave Wannstedt, 2012

IMO, yes. If something isn't working, change it. The D needs motivation. And some yelling at. Maybe Chan can yell at him too. So disappointed in his D schemes/gameplans. Holding on to hope. But so far, he's a dud. Wouldn't mind him on the sidelines.

No matter what anyone says, I will always blame it on Billy Joe Hobert.

Profoundly disappointing.

Might have hurt it sacking a QB on Madden. It's such a travesty we can't get more ergonomic game controllers.

Well, it's his second year as a starter. But understand your point completely. Like I said, if he continues the inconsistency by midseason, he should be benched. (but for who?)
