  1. THANK GOODNESS! What a wind bag. Anyone who liked this guy....I question your ability to listen effectively. Not every popular player can be the best ever and that is how he seemed to comment whether on MNF or otherwise. Can he take Gumble with him? I hope he enjoys retirement because I don't want him to rethink this decision. Congrats Dan.
  2. This should be Spiller and Jackson....get them on the field at the same time. Spiller is forcing too much and Fred is just a stud. How does he always fall forward? I am sick of watching the 1 yard followed by a -4 yard run. But somehow an OC needs to figure out a plan that works to the different run styles. I think CJ can turn it around.
  3. This is a tragic concept really. And is actually far more reaching than what most people even realize. My sister and brother-in-law in Cortland can be blacked out....really...that isn't' even close to the 70 miles supposed radius black out. I know I know if the station who broadcasts the game is within 70 miles....blah blah blah but then why can't they get directv and have the ticket? A 73,000 seat stadium in a city of 260,000? Ok so maybe the greater market area is closer to 1,110,000 still putting Buffalo on the edge of the top 50 markets in the US. If you consider that the Ralph is what #11 in stadium size and the 14 smallest have an average of 64.5K or 12% smaller add in the 85% sellout rule and those stadiums only need to sell roughly 55k tickets vs 62k to hit 85% at the Ralph...that 7,000 extra tickets seem to be a major issue of why any game even comes close to being blacked out. This comes from a guy that lives in Saratoga and catches all the games on The Sunday ticket I just hate knowing any fan not getting to watch if they are so inclined. GO BILLS!
  4. Because I was taught that you never quit just because something is difficult and you never give up on something you believe in! I will be there when the Bills are good again and we all will be celebrating when it happens! Go Bills!
  5. This game did bring more questions than answers. What happened to the run game? I feel that the coaches were relying on the fact that they would be able to run the ball all overt he Steelers and when that didn't happen they were befuddled. Which is a major problem, but why could they not run the ball? I like the comment that it is the 3-4 d that causes the issues....let's hope they figure it out and bury the Jets. Nothing left this year but to try and spoil the Jets and Pats season if at all possible. Ugh!
  6. They should have been in skirts...
  7. Another year where week 11 is meaningless. What happened this year to think we would have something to be excited about in Weeks 11-17? That was an absolute embarrassment. That team was smoked by NE last week and they just smoked the Bills....god awful effort.
  8. We have a new captain check down! He is awful today.
  9. I agree with all who said the Monday night game against NE when McKelvin fumbled the kick off. It is a classic example of one guy putting his own interests above the team. Considering the history and then Jauron defending the decision it was a moment where all feelings mixed together....anger, frustration, sadness, bewilderment, depression and the complete desecration of hope and belief. Why?
  10. Who says it was a joke. Maybe a protest of the folks on the ballot and maybe the person values the qualities Kiko emulates....quiet, honest tenacity for the job he was tasked to do. Anyone offended may not understand why we have the process in the first place. Then again that is assuming an awful lot about the person who did this. Here's to a proserpous future with whatever elected official takes office!
  11. Why wait for goal line for this? This should be apart of every down offense! Heck even throw Choice in a 2 back set...they run enough read option as it is. Play action with Fred or Choice up the gut, down field pass or CJ in a sweep toss or pass in the flat. Hell line up in that formation and make the d burn a time out. There must be a reason this isn't happening...let me know when you find out.
  12. If this has been said already forgive me....276 rushing yards! The most in a loss since 1976! Other team's fans don't understand that it is simply not just a loss....it is the manner with which they lose that is so painful. I love the no quit of this team. Hard nosed football with most of these guys. Go Bills knock the snot out Pittsburgh!
  13. He played as well as I expected. He didn't fumble for the TD. And that pick was blown coverage that was such dumb luck I can't stand it. Figure out how to power one in from the friggin 1 foot line and there are 2 more wins this year! Oh yeah someone needs to ask Chandler if was up for playing football today. That candy a$$ can't fight for YAC with the smallest db on him and nice hands today dude. What a giant wuss.
  14. Ball back in the second half and shove it down their throats!!
  15. Thank goodness for small favors
  16. Gilmore is there but that is too close on a 3rd and 27
  17. Neither EJ nor Thad was lighting it up out there. They made some throws, missed a few more and showed guts that everyone loved. That being said I want to see Tuel out there if Lewis can't go. Marrone likes him and with a week of practice and a game plan that suits his talent level it will be a much better indicator of his ability. The Browns game was ridiculous....but it was a snapshot in a very difficult situation. At home with the team pumped up to knock off an undefeated team....I would like to see Tuel if Lewis can't go.
  18. Dan Dierdorf, Jim Nantz, Joe Buck and Mike Tirico are really good at what they do and never annoy me to the point where I have to mute the game when they commentate for the Bills.
  19. I love the optimism, but the guy was on the practice squad and had time to prove he did not belong there. I would absolutely love to see this kid set the world on fire and put up a few TD's a week after the Hateriots (my 7 year old daughter came up with that week 1) could not!
  20. I am a bit concerned. Hopkins was just placed on IR to make room for Lewis....Sully's article indicates that Tuel was on the roster and Lewis on the practice squad to possibly keep Tuel from being picked up by another team. So basically they were holding a spot for Hopkins (2 kickers one injured) and only having 2 active QB's to keep a "work in progress" from being picked up away from them? Those are the type of decisions that make me question any of the thinking going on over there. The in game decisions haven't been too bad, but this has me questioning much more. Go Bills!
  21. I think maybe you should have started by explaining how football works...it begins with the line on both sides of the ball. Control the line of scrimmage and your team will make plays. QB's look better, RBs look better and so on. I was woefully unimpressed by the O-line and D-line play. Sure there were miscues on the so called "skilled" positions, but all teams that are successful at blocking on O and penetrating and tackling on D win ball games.
