  1. This one is completely on the offensive play calling. Our D, despite getting run on, held them to only 6 points by the half. You can't expect any D to hold up to that kind of possession time. We needed to keep our O on the field. We didn't. We didn't seem to make any adjustments at halftime either. I agree with some of the posters--we played scared (offensively). Can't always rely on Fred, as good as he is. Kudos to our secondary, the only bright spot of that horrible game. Should have had two interceptions, and that holding call was extremely suspect. Chan will have em ready for the Cowboys.
  2. Had nothing to do with our wretched loss, but let's not wear white at home again unless there's a really good reason...and let's never give out pom poms. Still don't understand why the Bills did this.
  3. I agree with all of these points. I have it on special authority, though, that we have an extra ace up our sleeve: The Jills, Chan Gailey, George Edwards and the entire coaching staff will be barefoot. Rex will simply not be able to concentrate. Ack...can't believe I just said that.
  4. Have all the fun you want--this isn't English class--but huge blobs of sentences are tough on the eyes. On a more important note, I also would like to see tears in Sanchez' eyes and I fully anticipate the grounding of the Jersey Jets fleet. Go Bills. What a bad-ass bunch of football fans we are criticizing each others' sentence structures. And what a difference from Jets boards. Half of their posters can't even spell let alone debate the proper use of ellipses and paragraph breaks.
  5. Could care less when--yes, it's a when, not an if--he has his breakout day. Freddie is on fire. Our entire offense is. If he gets 100 yards, great. If he gets 10, I don't care, as long as we beat the Jets. People are kind of complaining about the lack of production from Brad Smith and CJ Spiller. There's only so much ball that go around. Right now, Jackson and Johnson are working.
  6. These articles in the Jersey/NYC press are understating his worth. He's converted about 10 third downs for us. Don't know why he's not attempting passes, but as far as the kick returns go, our entire ST stats are low this year. He's been a valuable asset to this team, and I can only imagine it improving.
  7. Agree. Seems totally random and senseless. As long as they never don the previous unis, I won't complain though.
  8. Not a single one in Atlanta all year. But hey, at least I've gotten three Dolphins AND Colts games. :sick: :sick:
  9. Am still not convinced it's not some collective hallucination. We beat the Jets, and the reality might sink in for me.
  10. Who can predict these things. I would've predicted losses against NE and Phili and wins against Cinci and NY. I had predicted a close shootout in KC, when it was a blowout. I thought the Skins were going to murder Fitz and that we wouldn't be able to put pressure on Beck without Williams and Merriman, when, in fact, the opposite happened. We might destroy the Jets and sweep the Pats. We may get slapped by the Fins and Tebowed by the Broncos. It's the NFL, and a bad gameplan, or one poorly executed play (see P. Rivers), can make the difference. Having said that, I think we are more balanced than almost any team now assuming we've A) discovered how to sack QBs and will B) rediscover the deep ball with a healthy Jones. If these things happen, I don't see any reason why we couldn't make it deep into the playoffs. The only AFC team truly better than us, IMO, is Pit.
  11. I think Chan thinks it's all good. There was a hint of a smile at the presser. Let them show some personality. Chan isn't a control freak like Billicheat or an anything goes blowhard like Sexy Rexy. Perfect group of characters from top down in my opinion.
  12. Completely agree. You echoed my sentiments after seeing the Tebow mocking yesterday and reading their ridiculous comments today. (Like they'd be saying that about Cam Newtwon if he was horrible). Classless. Base. Amateurish. Lame. These clowns won't mock some WR who praises God every time he puts on a jock strap, but they'll mock Tebow for praying on the sideline. Sad, mindless, and it will come back to haunt them. Our team and Detroit's team are years apart in the character column.
  13. Jeez, they looked incredible. On all of our blitzes, the Skins' receivers were still covered. Do we put Dareous in at NT from now on? He looked unstoppable. Is Washington's line that bad or did we all of a sudden discover how to sack quarterbacks with a vengeance?
  14. Secondary looked stellar. Pass rush rushed big time. Can't judge the run D...the Skins didn't have their RB. Play calling magnificent. Freddie, as usual, delivered. Receivers made it happen. Fitzmagic looked poised and efficient, not great, but good enough. Our deep ball still lacking. Thigpen has no periphial vision.
  15. Yeah, Jerry Sullivan is right sometimes, wrong others, too negative most of the time. But just enjoy the win for 24 hours already. We're in first place, the pundits pretty much universally had predicted us to win, and we just shut another team out. Go Bills.
  16. I've always liked his work with the Yardbirds. But I have to give an edge to his groundbreaking CD, Odelay. Given these posts, he's apparently quite an accomplished writer too. Impressive. Don't think his quarterbacking abilities will be enough for the Bills, though. 30-14, Buffalo.
  17. Incredible video. Didn't know he played Arena ball too...at $200 a game. Amazing story.
  18. Cool. Feels good to have a team with a franchise QB. Now that he's got the franchise tag, other media sites will have to stop calling him Fitzgerald. That's the rule, I think. We can still call him Fitzgibbons, though.
  19. Thanks for the writeup. Haven't had a chance to watch any Skins football.
  20. We don't have a pass D? We're No. 1 in takeaways. Don't rely too much on stats. And I really don't think our run D is all that bad. Seems like the stats have gone sour in the last quarter lately. Everything falls back on the lack of a pass rush. Losing Merriman will hurt us in that department. We certainly threw deep the first three games. Everyone was complaining that we weren't running enough. We'll get deep again. Our O line has been in shambles all year. It's done far better than average. I don't expect anything more than a minor, and temporary, downgrade there. Gailey will have this team ready after a bye.
  21. Seems a bit lofty for us with our injuries--depends as much as what the Jets do as what we do. But the Texans, Chargers and Ravens are beatable if we do get there. I don't see any scenario in which the Ravens win their division. Steelers are rolling right now. And Cinci could actually take the Ravens spot.
  22. http://movieclips.com/XD5b-rocky-2-movie-mickey-yells-at-rocky/ Clearly, Mickey shouldn't have raised his voice or called Rocky a bum.
  23. I agree. Mark Sanchez is an elite QB. Just kidding. Jets' offense sucks. Their D is overrated. And their coach has a foot fetish. We will beat them twice. Three times if it were possible. Jimmy Spag is probably a Bills fan, FYI. Having lived near NYC, even Jets fans aren't that inarticulate.
  24. Like he, and many other coaches, haven't talked that way before? If we analyze everything we said, and the tone in which we said it, and displayed it to the public for all to hear, you and I probably would apologize at some point too. It's called public relations. By apologizing, and letting his supporters rile the troops up, he looks better. I wish I had audio of my TI in basic training. He kind of hurt my feelings. It still exists. Just not if Google, Apple, Facebook, email marketers, street cams, TSA, NSA, CIA, local police or state police do it. Or smartphones, GPS, FBI, ATF, DEA, IRS...
