Agree. This is a big game, but it's silly to call it a defining moment. What if we win and still don't make the playoffs? Honestly, I'm more interested in seeing how we fare following our next loss (or even a 2 game losing streak). How do we handle adversity over the course of the entire season? We know we can win at the Ralph, but can we handle our business on the road (only 1-2 so far)? I will say this, on an emotional level, it feels like a must win game. Especially, with the tough road stretch to follow.

First time picking the Bills all season. Bills 20 Jets 17

he was there for a routine physical

Sunday's game has got to be an intimidating prospect for maybin. After all, he's facing the same guys who have lit him up on the practice field for the last two years.

Ralph is cheap. It's hard to win in this league (when you're wearing white). Then again, I've heard of white. Maybe we should wear it.

4 of our 8 games have been televised here in san diego. Amazing. It's nice being relevant.

Honestly, the only afc team that scares me is the patriots. I can't see brady ever laying another turd again like he did in our first meeting. If we make te playoffs and avoid the pats, I like our chances.

dominated? They've been outgained at home by over 200 yards tonight.

chiefs still suck. They only appear better because they've been playing crap teams like the chargers. Now that campbell's hurt in oakland, that division is an absolute joke. We'd win the west by 3 or 4 games this year.

touché

Tebow is freakin wretched today. Embarrassing. Denver fans should boo that dude off the field.

fitzy threw it to where he anticipated johnson to cut. Fletcher just read it better than stevie. Waste of a nice drive there.

Skins 23 Bills 10 Down to the wire until a pick six in the final minute seals the deal for the Redskins. Just got a feeling we'll be on the wrong end of defensive touchdown this time. Regression to the mean.

Dude sucks and won't be missed. I live in SD so I casually follow the Bolts as well, and everyone here knew he had nothing left. Never understood why we even wasted time and a roster spot on this scrub. We'd have been better off developing some UFA guy than wait around for Merriman. Best thing I can say about the guy is that at least he hasn't been a distraction here like he was in SD.

I agree. Spiller's another great example. Could have moved him while there was still some perceived upside. Now we'll be saddled with the dude until we cut him maybin style. We should also think hard about moving fitzpatrick and jackson asap while they still have some value. As crazy as it sounds, dareus shouldn't be far behind...we're at least seven years away from fielding a competitive roster, at which time dareus will be on the backside off his career.

there are no positives. Our coach is a moron and our qb is a noodle-armed 7th rounder who doesn't know how to use a razor. Our D is a sieve and only getting worse. Also, there is no hope of them getting better since this was the young guys getting torched...so now we officially know what they can bring and it's not much. We are only about 5 plays away from being 1-5. The nfl and refs hate us and conspire against us, so even if we eventually field a talented team the powers that be will not allow us to make the playoffs. our owner is about to die and the team will move to la. oh, and our best player is a 30 year old running back so he's got maybe 3 or 4 good games left in those legs. You actually saw the beginning of his decline today. Under 3 ypc in the second half. Sorry freddie, your time has come and gone.

agree. This is probably one of the least talented receiving corps in the nfl before the injuries. and people forget that jim kelly made his farir share of mistakes. Every qb makes mistakes from time to time. The question is, do they also make enough positive plays to win you a game and do they have enough talent on the d to occasionally bail them out. so for fitz the question is this: does fitzy giveth more than he taketh away? Jury's still out on that one.

this is the nfl. Almost anyone can hang with anyone from week to week. That's why coaching is so important. You see it with the niners and harbaugh and you see it with the bills and gailey.

lulz at this thread. Op probably had the majority of it written before the game...just itchin for a bad outing so he could click send.

geez...its not like it was a bomb. It was a 20 yard pass. Did you expect gailey to go jauron-esque and run the ball to the left hash for three straight plays and settle for a 46 yard field goal with 3:00 mins to play. The play was there and needed to be made, or at the very least fitz should know to put the ball where only his recceiver could get. Fitz f'd it up and it cost us.

good post. And keep in mind how far we've come in the last two years. Three years ago - if we lost the turnover battle -2 to a good team on the road it would have been one ugly ass blowout. Chan has made these guys competitive and instilled some real fight in our Bills.

I don't buy that. Three of our second half drives go for scores today if fitzy doesn't grossly underthrow those balls to stevie. That's all about execution and making a play. It has nothing to do with being physically or strategically dominated. Fitz made those plays against oak and ne and we won.

it's tough to win on the road against good teams in the nfl. That's a fact. That's why you saw 3 pt wins against ne and oak, and 3 pt losses to nyg and cinci.

you must have missed the ne, oak, and philly games?
