    It’s like people don’t even realize all the useless pork that our tax money goes into. At least I can see a new stadium. Let New York State taxes fund a portion of it. A lot of upstate tax money goes downstate, time for them to reciprocate. 

    As long as we own the building after its done and the money we make off of it goes towards the surrounding suburbs and buffalo instead of to NYC ....(which is where the money will likely go)....im fine with funding a stadium for our team.

  2. This is what I want from the Bills this week:

     

    - The W (end of story)....

     

    Seriously though,

    - Offense scores at least one touchdown to ruin Pats D's record

    - They play solid football without shooting themselves in the foot

    - HEART. I want to see them fighting till the very end no matter the score. 

     

    The key to beating Brady is the same as always. Get to him with 3 or 4 but use the rest of your men to flood the field. Brady gets the ball out faster than any other QB due to designed plays and quick decision making. Whats the point of getting to the QB in 2 seconds on a 0-blitz if he gets it out in 1 and gashes you for 30 yards. If you are going to blitz it needs to be unseen and out of nowhere and you need to make sure the hot route is covered HARD. 

    Other than that. Play hard and don't shoot yourself in the foot and you have a 50/50 chance of winning against the Pat's every time. 

    This will be a GREAT measuring stick for both teams. I'm just hoping they are talking about the Pats like they are the '97 team instead of the '07 team after Sunday ;)

  3. The only downside to this run is that he gets his finger in that guys face mask and pulls down....facemask should have been called. Then he lowers his head to make head-to-head contact with the next guy. As he lowered his head second the call should have been on him. He got away with two non-calls there. Glad to see him play like that but he needs to be careful. Those get called against the Pats

    Most negative people will say who have they beaten tho? The number 30th and 31st ranked teams in the league? Hell, even this week they o my play the 26th ranked team. 

     

    But it at least they put us at 9 with the rest of the 2-0 teams and didn’t put a 1-1 team ahead of us. 

    Exactly what I was thinking. I think they are correct that we are the worst of the 2-0 teams (so far....journey has just begun ;)). I just read another power ranking that had us at 24th still. I just couldn't understand it.

    RT is looking to still be an issue and I'm just not a Zay fan. Allen is showing good progress,I'm interested to see how he handles playing a good team. The conservative coaching BS has to go away, and I'm afraid that is part of McD's DNA - that is very concerning. Never should have kneeled at the end of the half and they should not have gone in a shell in the 3rd; it felt like they were trying to run the clock out in Q3 and that is a terrible idea, unless you are up like 40-0...

    I refuse to read the other 4 pages of comments before i say this. DAMN RIGHT!! I said it at half time to anyone who would listen. The Bills have a horrible tendency to play looser on defense and boring offense that runs the clock out the second they get any kind of two score lead. It's frustrating as hell. Look at Belichick. 43-0 and he sends a 0-blitz at the dolphins (brings the house). GO FOR THE THROAT! I don't care if you are up 6 scores. Maybe take some starters out but keep going for that throat with the play calling. Play 4 quarters and make them PAY. Finish every game the way Feliciano and Spain keep on finishing their guys. 

     

    A win is a win but man oh man you CANNOT do that to a good team. You attack and you don't stop attacking.

    This thread isn't referring to the power ranking guys. It's about the ball that was thrown to John Brown to win the game.

    .

    And on that point, I will agree with the PFF guys only because that was my first thought seeing the pass but for all I know it was the way it was supposed to be thrown knowing it would trip up the CB.

    The problem is that we can never know. Did JA see that he didn't have his guy beat and decide to underthrow it to let him make a play? I've seen a lot of QB's do that. On the other hand, was he trying to throw a bomb and just severely underthrew him and Brown made him look good. Who knows. All I know is that it ended up in the game winning touchdown and that's all that matters ;)

    Its just the opposite for me.

     

    I'm expecting Singletary to start his NFL career off with a bang to help Buffalo win a close one.

     

    I hope...

    I feel like our entire offense is one big gamble atm. As my favorite fictional character says .... "Dovie'andi se tovya sagain." (It's time to toss the dice.)

  8. Also, I would like to see our offense be better than either offenses last night. They were AWFUL. Both O-lines were swiss cheese. Made our line last year look good. Last night wasn't necessarily about good defenses but piss poor offensive lineman and I DONT want to see that on Sunday. I'll take a W no matter what but god that was awful last night.

  9. It's been said. A win. I've seen good teams play bad football and bad teams play good football. I have seen our D dominate and our O dominate and vice versa. All that matters in the end is the W. Come out with a win and start building some momentum.

    Obviously a victory, however beyond that I want to see that they've put to bed some of the demons from the last couple years

    -- all facets of the game come ready to play.  I was at last year's opener and the Ravens came straight out of the gate moving the ball at will.  No ugly Ravens, Packers, Saints, Colts, Chargers type games

    -- even if the game is not high-scoring, I want to see that offense can move the ball both passing and running

    -- mentally ready to play.  No stupid penalties life false starts, personal fouls and illegal formation type flags, which were abundant last year

    -- I don't want to see that we're clearly out-coaching and strategizing the other team, which was missing at times last year

    -- no injuries

    I think you mean that you WANT to see that ;)

  10. It also annoys me when people stay seated during the anthem. It also annoys me when people don't put their hand over their heart or take off their hat or whatever. I was "brainwashed" since birth to show respect to the flag during the anthem by doing these things and it annoys me that others don't. I don't hate them. I don't want to hurt them. It just annoys me. Like nails on a chalkboard. I'll tell you what though. The next time a world war breaks out or a war breaks out where you need your freedoms defended, its the patriotism of those "brainwashed" volunteers that will be pushing them to put their lives on the line for you. I feel like so many people have forgotten that because their hasn't been a seriously devastating war on our own land in so long.

    I agree with you, but when an individual states they have a “special hatred” for fellow  American citizens exercising their legal rights, I tend to have an issue with that.  That individual needs to spend time examining why they have hatred toward another human who is doing no harm.  Maybe that’s just me...

    You are perfectly correct. So much so that long before this I removed that statement. If you knew me you would know that I misuse that statement and don't mean it in that actual context. I am actually pretty chill. You however do not know me and I put that out there to a bunch of people that had 0 context of who I am or how I would mean that. You could say it was more like a normal person saying "it really annoys me". I don't hate anyone.....maybe my ex wife :P.....so I am truly sorry that I stated it that way.

    Your right to speech is honored as it should be, but we should as a people not slip, by repressing other legal activities under other guise.  I am not a religious man per say,  but do support others rights to use the football field to express their right to prayer, even during the national anthem. 

     

    Semper Fi,

     

    Go Bills!!!

    There are two different things going on here. What I wish was true and what is true. 

     

    What I wish was true: They knelt during the anthem and the minor protest shed a light on social injustice issues and brought more people to the cause

    What is true: They protested during work hours on work property and during a time that caused more issues for their cause. 

     

    Did I personally find it disrespectful? Yea. Do I find it disrespectful when someone next to me doesn't take off their hat or doesn't put their hand over their heart or doesn't stand up for the anthem? yeah i do. Do I go punch them in the face for it? Nope. That's their right. Did I think they should be rounded up and fired en masse a la Trump tweets. No. Did I think it was cool when I thought they might have found a cool compromise that would help their cause get more attention but without all the social drama. Yes. Silly enough, it was just players praying in the end zone anyway. So, moot point. 

    FYI, now that we have moved into the politics zone I'm willing to talk again :P

    I am a Marine Corp veteran, and have no issue with American citizens participating in social injustice protests, such legal protests have nothing to do with the United States military personnel, or veterans. Those that would convolute these legal protests into acts against military personnel and veterans are  violating the rights of American citizens.  The flag is not the military, it represents the country, worts and all.   All government employees are there to do work for the citizens not the other way around!  All military personnel serve to protect the rights and safety of the citizens who own this country. Protest for equal treatment of all citizens under the law is a Patriotic act. Why would a citizen work to take away a fellow citizens legal rights?  this would take away their own rights at the same time.  We are all citizens of a democratic republic, called America, Land of the free and home of the brave. So be brave, so we can all be free!!


    I didn't even want to respond to this. I don't want to fuel the fire, but I just want to be VERY clear.

     

    A) I NEVER talked about taking away rights of anyone. I simply was using my own rights to put forth my own opinion

    B) This was NEVER my intent of this thread. I seriously was curious as to what was going on in the end zone and I let my emotional self take control of my rational brain. 

    C) If you or ANYONE would like to further discuss this with me you can do so in private message. Otherwise can we please talk about the original intent of the thread?

    Unless you were in one of the World Wars, then stop pretending you defended anyone's freedom/rights.  You didn't  There was NO THREAT!

     

    Your service is absolutely appreciated.  But no one owes you a damn thing.  You're an American just like all other Americans.

     

    Stop pretending you're above others just because you served in the military.

    So accusing someone of lying about service is who you are? That’s quite an interesting approach. 

    You know what. That was uncalled for. Like I said I get heated. I know that myself and all my friends I have that are veterans are all annoyed by this. However, obviously not all current military forces are. I apologize for the assumption and hopefully we can move on.

    Yeah, I don't think you come across any less of an a$$ this way.

    That is why I have literally deleted half my messages and edited the other half. I never wanted this and I get too heated when it comes to all of this. It's sad really because I support the cause that they are speaking about. I've been to rallies and truly do believe in it. I hate how I let my own personal feelings from my life cloud that and how I let them seep through to derail what could have been a quaint but fun topic.

  16. Allright I give up. My true intentions with this post were to find out what was going on with the kneeling over there. Thought it was cool and it's turned into a heated debate (fueled by myself)....so I am taking away the fuel. Sorry for stirring the pot. I won't respond to anything anymore unless it has to do with my original intent.

    they have been doing this for years.  They are praying.  They are probably thankful for the ability to play.  Maybe fearful their livelihood could end in an instant during the game.  Who knows?  Im not a religious guy, but good for them to take a moment in the chaos for some spiritualism.  

     

    Whenever I go to a game, this is the most real and human moment I witness.

    Thank you May Day 10. I can't believe I missed it all last year. Very cool.

    When's the last time you body slammed a 12 year old child for not removing his hat during the anthem?

    Look, I have literally said that I am a PROPONENT of the social injustice movement. I agree that something needs to be done. NOT the topic of my post though. I have edited this and many other messages, if not outright deleting them because I didn't want THIS. I simply wanted to post something i thought was cool.

    You all are idiots, this has literally nothing to do with the anthem.  Every single game players do this, every single sport, every single team.  They used to follow Tebow around with camera to make sure they got the shot of it.  But now the "F*** your feelings/if you don't like it leave" people start clutching their pearls when they see anyone kneeling, and then they try to find something that they want to be offended by.  Get a new hobby.

     

     

    Yes, this has nothing to do with the anthem and honestly I should have taken my opinions out of the first line of my OP. I was genuinely just trying to figure out what was going on because I hadn't seen it before.
