Realist

Okay, so we bench Drew because he misfired on a few passes Sunday. Therefore you have to bench Moulds, Shaw and Reed because of some dropped passes. You bench Henry for missing blitz pickups and not finding a hole. You bench the OL for...well, no need to explain why. So now that you benched everyone that screwed up against the Raiders, your starting Offense is now Matthews at QB, McGahee at RB, Aiken and Evans at WR and a 2nd string OL that is not even good enough to start for the Buffalo Bills. Look Out Patriots, here we come!!! People are blaming just Bledsoe, when he is just a part of the problem. We didn't lose to the Jags because of Bledsoe, we lost to them because of drops, fumbles, and untimely penalties (Not going to mention that the defense couldn't stop a 4th and long, that also couldn't stop a 3rd and 27 against the Raiders).

This was a great article and is more truthful than any of the drudge you will see on this board. It could just as easily have been us at 2-0 and the Jags at 0-2. This is a parity league and anyone can beat any other team. You just have to look at the Chicago/Green Bay game. Everyone thought GB were world beaters (me included, they knocked me out of the Survivor Pool ), but then the Bears beat them at Lambeau. The Bills will turn this ship around, the question is, when will it happen and will it be too late?

Start benching players that are responsible for the miscues? Who's going to play offense for us? Because you can put blame on every single player that goes out on that field on the offensive side of the ball. Tell me one offensive player that has done anything. Its not a bad thing to close out the press when the press is just acting like vultures trying to get a quote from a defensive player so he can run it and cause a controversey. The players need to cool down a couple of days so they don't say anything stupid.

You're right, this is a team game and unlike others I do not hold DB solely responsible for this loss. If anything, I put a lot of the blame on the OL for this one, I am only thinking that a more mobile QB could escape from the pressure caused by the seive of an OL we have and possibly create a couple of big plays. The Raiders game can be blamed on the entire offense, between Bledsoe's misfired passes, the WR dropping passes and the OL and RB's missing assignments. I have been a DB supporter from the start, but with this horrible OL, I just don't think he can get it done.

I know he lost last night, that's not the point. The point is he created plays where there was nothing. Where a less mobile QB would have gotten killed. Just think how that game would have been if it was Buffalo and Philly, you thought 7 sacks was a lot against the Raiders? It would have easily have been double if Culpepper was Bledsoe.

I didn't read all of the posts on this thread so I'm sure this has been mentioned, but no one on offense has a right to be upset with Drew. This has not been all Drew's fault, in fact in reality only a small portion of the offensive woes should be blamed on Drew. He just gets the brunt of it because he's the supposed leader (That is the main quality he lacks in my opinion). The receiver's have dropped as many passes as DB has misfired on. The OL and RB's have missed as many assignments as DB has screwed up. The penalties are all coming at the wrong time both offensively and defensively. Although the defense has a right to complain, they have screwed up on plays that they have no right to mess up on. Jax last drive and Raiders 3rd and 27? and give up a 43 yard TD? Ridiculous. Even though the D has held our opponents to only 13 points in each game and the offense should have won the game, the Defense COULD have won the game without these lapses.

I watched last night's game and Culpepper was being rushed on every play. He was constantly scrambling, but he did create a lot of plays that there is no way Bledsoe would be able to. So thinking about RJ is not that bad. He would still get sacked but he would create more opportunities. Holy stevestojan!!! Did I just say that?!

I see your point, but even though I'd be happy with the wins, even a moron can see there are many flaws that could easily have put us at 0-2. By the way, did anyone see the end of the Cowboys/Browns game? Garcia threw it up for grabs and Keyshawn was playing defense and you'll never guess what he did...He KNOCKED IT DOWN and Dallas won. See Nate, even a selfish WR knows what to do on that kind of play.

We are no better than the Dolphins. In fact their Defense may be better than ours. These will be two of the most boring games of the year. Look for someone to win 6-3 or 3-0 in these games.

Then don't forget the camera!!!

Wait a minute!!!! Back up a second...'Chicks makng out'? Did you think you could say that without having to explain further?

Definitely Both.

Whats wrong? GREED

US is getting blasted now! Europe is 3up, 5up, 4up, and AS. Unbelievable.

I'm thinking of it myself. Who did you go with and about how much is your monthly bill going to be? PM me if you'd rather.

I have a 2002 Trailblazer EXT and its great. 2 years and 35,000 miles and it still rides just as smooth as the day we bought it. Adults can sit in the 3rd row all the way in back.

Miniscule effort????????

"Foxboro Mike"

How can you even ask that? Last year's Co-MVP or last years most underachieving QB? Until Drew gets out of his funk, you have to stay with McNair.

Give me a break! Here's this True Fan crap again. Your telling me you expect the Bills to win every Sunday!!! Well then you must walk around depressed an awful lot. Like Steve, I hope the Bills win each and every Sunday, but I sure don't expect them too. Of course I was unhappy after we had the game locked up and then Murphy's Law kicked in, but there was a lot of good that came out of that game, enough to give us hope. But get real, enough good to expect to win every Sunday? Not even close. Each one of us that reads this board is a True Fan whether we praise them for everything or B word about everything. A True Fan cares enough about their team to talk about it with complete strangers day after day.

Agree with your post. Clements is a 'playmaker' and gives us a great shot getting turnovers. The only problem I have with NC now, is he needs to know when NOT to go for the pick. And I believe the Defensive Backs coach really bitched at him after the game. So I'm sure that has sunk in now and hopefully this is going to be a non issue in the future.

Because this game is in Oakland and Buffalo has always had trouble playing out west, I'll have to say: Raiders 19 Bills 13

Common mistake most everybody makes outside of Buffalo. Hell, even a lot of people in Buffalo think it was named after Kelly.

It does sound eerily like "I have to execute..." Meanwhile we're all saying he needs to be 'executed'.

I'm sure he'll make a few mistakes. He should probably be compared to an average veteran right now. But he will become over time a great one.
