  1. Sure the sacks are not there...the QB pressure is not there...But there are two things I like about Mario. 1. He makes game changing plays at critical times. 2. He has really helped the run game be more stout. He has been the main stay in not letting a runner like Charles or Richardson get to the edges.
  2. I hope your prediction is right. Running the ball takes time off the clock and keeps Brady/Welker/Gronk on the sidelines. It acts as a double-bonus. The most important thing is Fitz to not throw INTs. He has thrown a ton of INTs against the Pats.
  3. 100% agree....When I grew up in India in the 70s and 80s, the country cupboard was bare with regards to sports other than the 8 Gold Medals in Men's hockey prior to their Independence. Then in 1983, the Indian Cricket Team came out of nowhere to win the World Cup in England beating the mighty West Indies. To this day, I still remember every frame of those 8 hours and the post game celebrations as shown on TV 29 years ago and gets replayed in our mind over and over....That win changed how the team was perceived and they have gone on to be a powerhouse for the past two decades that now India is the financial capital for Cricket. Simply Amazing, how something changes our lives dramatically.
  4. Here is what Mat Williamson of ESPN has to say about Jones, who is leading the votes for Defensive Rookie of the Year Williamson described what he has seen of Jones so far: "Jones is equally effective in a two- or three-point stance and he has great versatility -- which of course endears him to Bill Belichick. He has been the only consistent pass-rusher for New England, and that lack of other difference-makers really hurt the Patriots in Baltimore on Sunday night." Through three games, Jones has totaled 12 tackles, a sack, and has forced two fumbles. I hope the Bills protect the football and stop the rookie sensation.
  5. closest thing is not the same thing. The soldiers fight for the country.
  6. This is what everyone said about Sanchez....Some unknown street pick up FA RT had the best of Mr. 100 Million....Talk is cheap...While this DL is jelling nicely, I think Brady knows how to move the chains. I am really worried about this game.
  7. If Powell works out, then we have found our punter and kicker (Potter) for the next decade, something we were used to with Christie/Mohr and then Lindell/Moorman. Does this also mean that we are only left with Kelsay and Lindell from the Donahoe regime?
  8. The Ravens front seven is not the same without Terell Suggs..
  9. It is not that simple (and is never is). The NFL as an organization went from a guaranteed pension scheme to a 401(k) plan for all their employees. They want the NFL referees (as NFL employees) to follow suit and the Refs are not budging..They want their guaranteed 30K whereas the 401(k) would restrict the contribution to 16K.
  10. That is because Buddy never sleeps on his wheel and must attempt to sign every player that is released by 31 other teams :nana:
  11. Every minute of those 60 minutes is equally important. I don't understand why we should have special rules for the last two minutes. Why is a fumble or incomplete catch in the 5th minute of the game any different from the one at the 59th minute.
  12. My other game balls goes to: Eric Wood - Many times, he was leading the charge and dominating the DTs. McKelvin - His punt returns were crucial and did NOT give up any big plays Gailey - For not panicking and abandoning the run (he tried it a little hard in the 2nd Qtr), but Choice kept moving the chains, forcing Gailey to not abandon the Run. A Williams - Made 2 great plays on the long balls, that could have been TDs.
  13. Our team will never run up the score like the hoody!!! I am sure Belichek would have padded his teams stats yesterday after the INT return to the one yard line. The Bills on the other hand did a Kneel down and close out the game.
  14. This is the best news to come out after the win. We definitely need Spiller and Jackson for the west coast road trip to the Bay area and the desert. Link from ESPN: http://proxy.espn.go.com/nfl/story/_/id/8416744/buffalo-bills-cj-spiller-leaves-injured-shoulder Our OL has been outstanding. I think they can control the line of scrimmage (Even though they will go against a tough patriots front-7 led by the veteran and dirty Vince Wilfork). If they can shorten the game by running the ball effectively and keeping Brady and his super start WR/TEs off the field, we definitely have a chance. Of course the 12th Man will be huge come this Sunday.,
  15. 33 yards of total Rushing against the Bills. They have indeed come a long way. If they can continue to stop the run like this, they are more than likely to win their games.
  16. Tashard Choice did fine with some power running. I wish Gailey will trust more of his RB. At present, his 2nd WRs is doing nothing for him. If the other teams cover Stevie and Chandler, we are pretty much toast.
  17. six penalties since Spiller went down...Complete lack of discipline.
  18. And a broken play gives Cleveland a TD. Fitz almost picked off for 6 points....Damn...This game is turning to the Browns....The Bills needs to show better character and run the damn ball with Choice.
  19. Or if we lose another Starter to an injury, especially at the WR position.
  20. We do: Stevie and Chandler. Welker wanted 10M+ a year with the Patriots. Why would he want anything less than that with the Bills. The Bills cannot afford to pay Stevie and a big contract for a 2nd WR. I just don't see this happening.
  21. The only reason the Texans turned it around was due to the hiring of Wade Phillips. When you are the 4th largest TV market and home town, it is easy to hire a coach like Phillips. Let us not change history as to how Kubiak has bungled through season after season.
  22. The Browns are 3-1 against us in the last four games. In our last game against them we won 13-6 @ home in a very close game. Fitzpatrick had a mistake free game and Fred Jackson ran for 100+ yards.. The previous game is known for the muffed punt and the Browns QB throwing for 2 completions. The 27-29 loss was when Edwards kept throwing to their DBs and finally the 8-0 loss was in the snow when Jamal Lewis ran roughshod over us for 160 yards. This looks a scary game. 14 Sun December 16, 2007 L Buffalo Bills @ Cleveland Browns 0 8 boxscore 15 Mon November 17, 2008 L Buffalo Bills Cleveland Browns 27 29 boxscore 16 Sun October 11, 2009 L Buffalo Bills Cleveland Browns 3 6 boxscore 17 Sun December 12, 2010 W Buffalo Bills Cleveland Browns 13 6 boxscor Here are the current rankings of both the teams on Offense and Defense. BILLS OFFENSE - OVERALL (7), RUSH (1), PASS (28) DEFENSE - OVERALL (25), RUSH (24), PASS (23) BROWNS OFFENSE - OVERALL (22), RUSH (11), PASS (23) DEFENSE - OVERALL (29), RUSH (18), PASS (28) They do a better job of stopping the run, but vulnerable to the pass. I am nervous that Gailey is going to put the game in Fitzpatricks hands (the 28th Ranked Passing offense). ~ ~
  23. Every game that Levitre starts, his price is continuing to go up. Levitre and Wood are the heart and soul of this Offensive Line and probably the offense. They really need to use that 12M in Salary cap to lock him up and provide that continuity. I believe they also need to take care of Urbik who will also be a FA at the end of this season.
  24. I don't think Fitz compares well with RJ. RJ had a big arm but did not have the necessary feel to sense a rush and took too many sacks. Losman resembles far more closer to RJ. Fitz has a average to above average arm, but has made poor decisions (with the INTs) and also has simply been inaccurate. I see Fitz to be a taller version of Flutie.
