We should have kept Winfield. Many thought he was expendable because he wasn't making picks (Nate was at the time) but he's clearly a better corner than the "Playmaker". Every time I see nate wiff on a tackle I think of how we crapped the bed by not signing Antoine.

I was one who thought we could get by with Gandy but I'm a reformed man. Over the last few games its obvious he's a backup at best and is a liability on the field.

Dan Marino was classy on and off the field. He was 180 degrees from TO so the comparison is erroneous. Please tell me how Dan insulted the city more than once, I think you're making that one up. On a side note, Dan Marino has been present at Jim Kelly's charity golf tournament every single year.

What is this country coming to when you can't even post a LINK because someone somewhere might be offended? Holy crap, if you don't want to see the pics, DON'T CLICK ON THE FRIGGIN LINK. People are way too ready to be offended.

How can you not like Dan Marino? I never hated him even when he was playing for Miami. I hate Miami as a team but I can respect some of the the players, and Marino is one of the best pure passers to ever play. If you can't appreciate the skill of opposing players than you don't really appreciate the game. That comment by Collinsworthless just shows how much of a clueless blow-hard douche-bag he is.
Isotoner gloves!! Classic.

Mularkey got run out of town because he completely lost his team in only his second year and the team quit on him, period.

It wasn't even a yard, it was inches. Every time this team lines up for 3rd and 1 I cringe because there's a very good chance we won't make it. Every time another team lines up for 3rd or 4th and short I'm pretty sure they're going to make it.
That's the trenches, and if you don't have the horses or the attitude in the trenches it's very tough to win ball games.
I agree Bob, this has been a problem for years and I think simply displays our weakness on the lines.

I think the majority of fans are willing to give Jauron a fair chance, and that means years. You could tell the difference in the feel of this team from the first game of the season. That starts from the GM on down. You have to give credit to Marv for beginning to change the losing attitude of this team which have been a bunch of losers for 7 years now. Once they start winning games regularly a winning attitude will set in which will help in those tight, close games.

I know Bobby April is a special teams genius, but the last 3 "trick" plays he's called have been failures and have cost us field position and/or momentum. The fake punt, the pooch kick, and the fake field goal all failed.
I know, I know, IF Mormon had caught the ball, IF the ref hadn't called fair-catch interference, IF Peters hadn't tripped, they may have worked.
How about working on a punt or kick-off return for a touchdown instead of the Mularkey-esque bullcrap that's been called recently.

You've gotta be kidding me HD. You seem like a reasonable guy and usually make reasoned arguments, but even you must admit that there is no team that benefits from questionable or outright wrong calls like the New England Patriots. It's just a fact of life that when you play the Pats, you have to beat them and the refs.

The best highlight on that link is the Miami Dolphins two point conversion attempt. A halfback option toss play where the halfback starts to the right, reverses field to the left, and then attempts a pass to a receiver in the back of the end zone who is crossing from left to right.
VINTAGE MULARKEY

Reuben was clearly in decline at the end of his Bills career. The fact that we weren't able to replace him was more a testament to the horrible O-line management of the TD era than his skill level at that time.

The thing with hamstring injuries is that if you remain immobile (and don't practice) the hamstring tightens up and could be more severely injured on the resumption of strenuous activities.
It's a fine line TKO is walking between practicing, keeping that hammy warmed up and overexertion.
I think this is going to be a season long concern and is likely related to his achilles injury (favoring one leg, or one leg being stronger than the other).

Kornheiser should have asked Thesiman why people who lived on the coast, below sea-level, in the hurricane belt, surrounded by water held back by man-made structures CHOSE not to buy flood insurance. Oh, I guess that wouldn't have tied into the whole New Orleans is Back theme of MNF. Glad 185 million was spent on a sports venue, I doubt there was anyplace else that funding could have gone.

Willis was just looking for his "props", it had nothing to do making noise to help the team.

I think the defensive play calling could have been a little more aggressive in the second half to get a little pressure on Chad. There was 0 pressure on him with a line starting 2 rookies.
I question some of the offensive play calling in the first half, but I'm willing to give these guys the benefit of the doubt for a while.
Bottom line, it is a rebuilding year and we're going to have ups and downs. The sheer domination in Miami gave a lot of us that false hope that maybe there was something more this year. Reality hurts but its still fun to hope.

One of the articles states he walked out of practice on Monday with his calf heavily wrapped and a stimulator strapped to it.

I'm as happy to rip on opposing coaches and players as much as anyone, but drawing conclusions from what he's chosen to play during a practice is grasping at straws.

This game will in no way be a walkover. I don't care how we match up, its a division game and they're usually tough. Buffalo historically has a habit of making poor running games look good, poor QBs look like pro-bowlers, and poor defenses look like the steel curtain. I hope this Bills team is different, has a new attitude and killer instinct, and proves me absolutely wrong by burying the Jets.

I don't know if someone already posted this, but I came across it in an AP article and thought it was hilarious. This is Ko Simpson talking about his sack:
"The hole opened up big and my eyes got real big. And I saw the big joker back there, but he fell kind of easily," Simpson said of tackling Culpepper for an 11-yard loss.
The big joker! That's just icing on the cake.

Except for turnovers, I could care less what the stats are as long as we get the W.
If the Bills could win games by running the wishbone and never throwing a pass, it would be fine with me.

Can't say it much better than that. The majority of this team's problems can be explained by some of the most pathetic players in the trenches this league has seen for years.
Where's the guy who started the "Schoebel isn't overrated" thread now? The guy gets a sack on the first play of the game, so for the entire rest of the game he does his standard speed rush-to-nowhere and takes himself out of every play entirely. Pathetic.
If Marv is for real, and I think he is, we'll see some serious re-working of the lines this offseason and draft. The the only way this team will get any better is to improve line play on both sides of the ball.
