  1. I suspect he won't be terrible, maybe mediocre.  I really won't make any judgment until I see him play a few games.  Even if he sucks and we get killed, I won't really care since that is what happened in the previous two weeks under Tyrod.  Then we'll know we need to draft a new QB and that we're looking at a complete rebuild.  Which is what I expected when the new GM and coach were hired anyway. 

  2. The goalposts coming down in '88 against the Jets.  You just knew it was the start of something special.

     

    Second favorite was the '02 Miami snow game.  It was my wife's (gf at the time) first Bills game.  She was a born and raised San Diegan and had never even spent time in the snow.  It was the quintessential Buffalo Bills experience (tailgate, booze, snow, comeback against divisional rival, Kelly whooping it up on the sideline, etc.) and she absolutely loved it!

  3. It's much more like the 1983 Bills. 1st year head coach (Stephenson)  with an aging roster, veteran qb (Fergy)  and dynamic rb (Cribs).  Start 5-2, then blown out by divisional opponent.  Next week they came home and beat the Saints to move to 6-3.  Then went on to lose 5 of 7 and finish up at 8-8.

  4. 1) Tackling

    2) Turnovers (bad luck?)

    3) Offensive line

    4) Defensive line

    5) Offensive playcalling

     

    We mostly just sucked all around yesterday. Pretty much a collective team loss. But the poor tackling and the offensive line getting absolutely mauled stood out. I don't think our defensive line would have looked quite as bad (statistically) if our linebackers and DBs had tackled like they had been up until last night.

  5. 5-3 and fans are giving up already? With the addition of Gaines and the twin towers, the development of Zay. We should be better barring injuries.

    I agree. JFC, what's with all these chicken littles? Can you imagine these folks in real life? Must be some real winners.

     

    Bills are still in good shape at 5-3, which is far better than I had them pegged before the season began. Looking forward to next Sunday to see what kind of backbone we have.

  6. I think we win the first three and lose the last two. We are better than the Jets. New Orleans doesn't typically play well outside of the dome. And the Chargers game will basically be a home crowd for the Bills.

     

    But it's next to impossible to beat the Chiefs in KC, and we know our history against Brady and the Pats.

  7.  

    No there's another guy who is 6'5". Sorry he wasn't drafted this year. Devin Funchess. Tall big WR. KB clone.

     

     

    Funchess struggled his first couple of years, but he took a big step forward this year, and yes, very similar to Benjamin. Benjamin can be a very good receiver if he's motivated. Not a burner but big and comes down with the contested ball. Sort of like Keyshawn Johnson.
