  1. I love the 5-0 start, but I don't have a ton of faith in Robinson as a playmaking QB just yet. This will be a very tough test for him. If he does well, I'll start to believe a lot more. BTW, if OSU's corners decide to press cover Williams, it would be a mistake. I'm not so sure Tressel wants to do that.
  2. Ah, another bright and cheery post on our beloved Bills. I do agree w/ JSP's take on the short sightedness of the Bills in terms of acquiring personnel, and I also believe that the Bills need to stick w/ Losman. Why? The guy hasn't had enough snaps to just decide his future w/ the team and I also don't know where everyone is getting this "Holcomb is the messiah" vibe from. Here's my broken record part: the Bills have, again, failed to address the lines adequately in the offseason, and we're seeing the collateral damage from those decisions. You have to have @ least a serviceable line to do well, and we do not. Yes, McGahee has had his yards, but does anyone actually think the Bills can go into a game deciding to run the ball almost exclusively and be successful? Would this be a 3-1 team or a 4-0 team if all things stayed the same, except for us giving Willis the ball 37 times a game, ala Cadillac Williams? Does anyone think that any of these defensive coordinators we've faced would do something radical, like stacking the line of scrimmage more or run blitzing more to counter? Even teams like Tampa and Atlanta have guys who pose a threat in the passing game. Oh yeah, and they have much more cohesion up front offensively and defensively (surprising for Atlanta, because they suffered losses up front from injury and free agency, yet they're still the best rushing team in the league). I just don't know how the Bills will succeed w/out vast improvement up front on both sides of the ball, and I'm not sure we can count on the personnel we have up there @ the present. I remain hopeful, but I haven't seen much to make me think things will change.
  3. The draft is coming up in about 6 months. Pretty soon, we'll have a brand new wideout to ooh and ahh over.
  4. Considering that you have to win the battles up front, and I don't know if I'd say we're "talented" as a whole on either line, I don't know if I can say this is a playoff contender. We must start to win those battles in the trenches, offensively and defensively, to even entertain those thoughts.
  5. I think the correct quote is... "Marlin? Stingray? Bit through this piano wire? Don't you tell me my business again."
  6. Yeah, but we'll be @ .500 too! Woo hoo!!! Start Holcomb, Losman sucks, our OL will be great once McNally works his magic, Ron Edwards will turn it around and the DL will stuff the run, Nate Clements won't get his a** kicked by an underachieving WR every week, yadda yadda yadda...
  7. The Bills have a weak OL and an inexperienced QB???
  8. Yes, I agree w/ you: the Wall is much better w/ a separate forum for off topic posts.
  9. You'll get your chance, smart guy.
  10. Hey, it's a start. The team is finally getting talent for the offensive side and has a solid defense. This certainly isn't their year, but next year I expect them to be much more competitive and the year after, they should (that's no guarantee, as anything can happen) contend for a championship.
  11. What else would you call a Beaver big enough to fit 106,000 people?
  12. So, you'd rather watch than participate?
  13. I'm not so sure. I've been to Beaver Stadium on game day, and it's quite an experience.
  14. That's no reason to cry. You only cry to the pollsters, right?
  15. Well...... WE ARE...
  16. He said boobies. Heh heh!
  17. 69-29 Green Bay
  18. If this is anything like the Campbell soup vote, we're in trouble.
  19. Nah, he's just stupid.
  20. Not quite sure where you got 'huge game' from 'more involved in the gameplan'.
  21. The Ducks had 'em for a minute, but you can't keep that team down for long. Bush is awesome (the best player on their team, in my opinion) and Leinart is one very cool cucumber in the pocket, almost Brady-like in how he can dissect what the defense wants to do and react to it before they can adjust.
  22. It'll be interesting to see how well PSU can stop Maroney next. The guy's a very good running back; he could give the D major problems.
  23. Who cares about fairness?
  24. What about Bam Bam Bigelow?
