  1. It looked like it was going to go off the rails early between the slow start in period 1 and the stupid challenge by Ruff on the Senators second goal. The fans really woke up after Ruff's challenge was unsuccessful and channeled all their frustrations at the officials. Had Ottawa scored on the next 4 minutes of power play and the short 2 man advantage there might have been a riot. I know everyone in the world thought another heart breaking collapse was coming when Ottawa scored 2 quick goals early in the 3rd. I did. 3rd goal was a little lucky and a crazy tip in. 1 out of 100 might go in but Ottawa's 4th goal was an inexcusable lapse in communication between Dahlin and Timmins. The epic bed pooping was on. Positives: Two pivotal moments in this game and the Sabres kept their composure long enough for McLeod to deliver two huge goals. There is a lot to like about the Doan - Tuch - McLeod line. Doan isn't the greatest player but I love his game. He is tough to play against and has a little bit of offensive potential. Benson was immediately noticeable. Some puck luck Negatives Puck luck, lots of it. Giving up 4 goals. Maybe the second one was goaltender interference and maybe the 3rd one was lucky but still. This team is not going to score 5 goals a night even with Norris, Kesselring, and Greener in the lineup. They probably lose that game 7 times out of 10. The advanced stats that I barely understand say we got lucky. https://www.naturalstattrick.com/
  2. The Knox sweep fumble looked like it could have gone for a big gain. For us, to be clear. The Moore sweep looked like a bust from the get go.
  3. First I'm hearing of this.
  4. Whats the latest from Incarcerated Bob?
  5. Ask him yourself. I'm not part of a team here.
  6. You play the teams on your schedule. There are no asterisks next to the Pats and Colts achievements for playing in weak divisions.
  7. I think "any decent coach" can have one or maybe two 12 win seasons with Allen and the rosters that we have had. I do not think too many coach GM combos can sustain the level of excellence we have seen for 7 years. Look at Philadelphia. Super Bowl caliber roster that is on the verge of falling apart multiple times under Sirianni. I'd trade 4 more years of 12 win seasons for one Lombardi and 3 years of underperformance but the Lombardi is hardly guaranteed just by changing the staff. Any new staff will want to bring in a new system and turn over the roster. In the modern NFL that can take as little as one offseason or it can be 2 to 3 years. If there ever was a time to totally overhaul the roster, it is this offseason.
  8. Can you take any GM and have the 8 year run the Bills have had? The overwhelming issue right now is talent and injuries, not coaching.
  9. The offense consistently sucked for all 60 minutes. Might as well forfeit.
  10. Nothing in that article suggests there was ripping or that the conversation resulted in a new one. Misleading title.
  11. Can the people who won't take a breath please pass out already?
  12. He wasn't on the field for any 3rd downs. Johnson is better at blitz pickup so we took our second biggest threat on offense off the table.
  13. I would happily endure AJ Brown's depression book club and melodramatic tweets all the way to the Super Bowl.
  14. The team received your criticism and took it to heart. I hope you enjoyed the "Everyone is Anorexic" offense.
  15. Is there even room to tailgate?
  16. I thought they competed and looked pretty good most of the game. They are actually playing sound defensively. They just can't generate enough quality scoring chances while playing anything resembling defense and the power play is abysmal. Early injuries have not helped. I thought this team would need everyone healthy and performing near career highs to be in the wild card picture and so far without Norris, Benson, and Kesselring thats pretty much what it has looked like to me. 100% of their practice time should be spent on Power Play. They could actually be in these games as loser point merchants with an average power play. Penalty kill has been solid. Lyon has been decent.
  17. So its more like the beginning, middle, and end days of Gary, Indiana?
  18. This season has been a disaster. Franklin may not survive this. I respect what he has done with the program in getting them back to a state of perennial paper contenders who can't beat a top 10 team and feast on lesser competition. But now they're losing to lesser teams and have no answers on either side of the ball. Looks like the kids have quit on him.
  19. What if everyone ate on defense?
  20. Whats a philly slice? You talking tomato pie?
  21. Deep dish is a broad term. It could mean Malnatis style, it could mean Gino's/Uno's style which is deeper with a breadier dough, it could be chicago stuffed with 2 crusts and sauce on top, and then theres the Burt's and Pequods style which is more like your pan pizza but with the caramelized cheese crust. Decent amount of variation in my experience.
