by the way, philip rivers underthrow just cost san diego another game.

here comes some ridic penalty

such a loser team. I blame fitz by the way.

final score 48-24

Wanny has no imagination and no balls. I really wish we would have kept george edwards. D was at least making baby steps under george.

should have gone for the onsides kick lol

offense has been damned good

offense has been fine

this s$!t defense puts so much pressure on our offense.

LOL. Wannstedt needs to be canned on Monday. If I'm a buffalonian, no way in hell I attend another game until heads have rolled. This team sucks!

enjoy it boys. This is as close as we'll be to the pats until 0-0 next season.

That was a great article. Thanks for passing it along.

They are like the yin and yang of terribleness when it comes to coaching.

I don't like our team and I'm generally a pessimist, but I have a strange feeling about this week. I think we'll lose, but I believe it's going to be a lot closer than anyone thinks. I see it playing out like the Titans game where we inexplicably (though inevitably) choke away a victory in the closing seconds.

agree with the OP. No one played badly. The team as a whole just sucks. And that falls on Chan. The coach is responsible for the culture , the attitude. Our culture is passive and weak minded. There's no reason to keep Chan at this point. He's three years in. This is his team and this is what Chan-football will look like going forward. We're not going to be able to lure a clearly desirable candidate to Buffalo, so I hope we think outside of the box instead off hiring another retread.

both are to blame. Redzone offense and defense failed today. Defense never turned them over either.

sounds like a good showing today. Hung tough for 3 qquarters. Didn't embarrass ourselves.

Lol...keep dreaming...there's no way he'd take the Buffalo job. He's in a great situation at Oregon and Nike will throw whatever money he wants to keep him there. Plus, he's a hot commodity. If he's interested in the NFL, he'll get the best job that's available - and that won't be in Buffalo. Keep in mind that the only guys who would accept this job in the last decade are the worst kind of retreads. I can't even imagine a guy like Mike Nolan accepting the job at this point. If Ralph is still with us when we reach for Chan's replacement, you're looking at a Marty Morningwheg, Steve Spagnuolo or Norv Turner kind of hire.

Way way way less. After moving away from Buffalo, I used to spend my entire fall Sundays (for years) holed up in some smelly sports bar. Now I probably only watch about 1.5 hours of NFL football a week. And that's only because I have dinner at my in-laws on Monday nights and the game's on in their house. The current NFL product is weak in my opinion and resembles a 7-on-7 passing league. I miss the physical battles of my youth. Having said that, I'm sure I'll get sucked back in when the Toronto/Hamilton Bills turn it around in 2020.

Lol...thank you for that one. Made my day.

Lol...I know. There is no chance of turning this thing around until there's a new ownership group in place. Just get used to it and enjoy the level of mediocrity we've been treated to for 13 years or stop watching until Ralph Wilson is no longer the owner. I've chosen to stop watching...though I can't seem to stop whining about them on this board.

Make that 14 years without the playoffs, at a minimum. Even under the best case scenario where we hire a competent coach and draft a franchise QB in the offseason, you're looking at a minimum of one season to develop the QB and install the new coach's philosophy. So, if everything falls just right for us, you're looking at a team that could possibly have a chance at the postseason in January 2015. Given our history, my guess is that we get the coaching change/frachise QB thing wrong for one more cycle (an additional 3-4 years), so we're looking at playoffs in 2018-2019. That would put us at roughly 20 years since our last playoff game. It's funny, I remember my Dad and I laughing and making fun of my mother for crying after we lost the Homerun Throwback game. We told her it was just a game and that they'd make the playoffs next year. If only we knew, we would have been crying right along with her.

My biggest problem with Fitz is that he totally blows in the clutch. He's really only been clutch in two games that I can remember and they occurred in back-to-back weeks last year (Raiders and Pats). Compare that with the games where he has either thrown a huge pick or failed to move the ball in the 2 minute drill to cost us a game (Chiefs, Pats, Bears in 2010; Giants and Cinci in 2011; Tennessee in 2012...just off the top of my head). Agree with the general premise, though. By most objective measures, Fitz played well enough yesterday to win if we had even a below average defensive performance. Unfortunately for us, our defense is putrid.

We have a culture of losing and it will stay this way until Ralph passes or we luck into a competent GM and/or coaching staff. You almost have to try to suck in order to miss the playoffs for 13 straight seasons in today's NFL.

stupid fitz!
