  1. Is it a case of Klein getting better, or a case of Frazier using him in ways that better utilize what he is good at? Like providing QB pressure?
  2. Honestly, I thought this crew got most of the in-game play stuff right. I can't really complain much about their calls. It was the after-play stuff that was so frustrating. Particularly the unsportsmanlike call on Moss, and the call against Gabe Davis. The call on Josh, as stupid as the rule is, and no matter his intentions, was a text-book "taunting". Not saying I agree with the rule, but it is the rule, and Josh has to know better than that.
  3. The defesne kept Herbert off target the whole game. He had to rush throws, and put too much on a lot of passes, because we had good pressure on him. Hughes and Klein were great most of the game.
  4. This win goes to the defense...
  5. This game scares me a bit. If you compared the teams stats, and didn't know which team was which, the Chargers look better on paper.
  6. No, we get it. This was the entire Trump campaign strategy for the last 8 months or so... he knew it was his only chance of winning. If they have the proof, and the "receipts" they shold probably start producing them, instead of just talking about them... I suspect it will end up like everything else Trump...all noise, no substance.
  7. Honestly. I think Allen looks more in shape this year, than he did the last two years.
  8. ESPN certainly has its' problems...but in my opinion, NFLNetwork is pretty unwatchable too...it could be so much better.
  9. When I was a kid, my best friend had a Sports Illustrated poster, featuring this photo. It marked the first time, of many, that I was wrong about something...I insisted it wasn't OJ. Back before you could look everything up, you had to rely on an older, non-partisan adult to settle such disagreements. In this case, it was his father...yeah, real partial!
  10. I was living in NYC in the late 80's and early 90's. I swear, the week of Super Bowl XXV, the Village Voice ran a column, essentially saying that the Bills were the only true New York team. The writer was making the point that sophisticated NY sports media were acting like the Bills, and their fans were rubes. The writer picked the Bills to win the game, and said that the more ***** NYC sports people talked about the Bills, the sweeter the victory would be. The Bills were a "special" team, and only their fans knew it...but the world would know soon enough. The article was accompanied by a black and white photo of Cornelius Bennett, dressed in the Bills all-white road uniforms of that time, coming out of the tunnel in some NFL stadium somewhere..in the bacround you can see fans giving him *****. He is crossing his hands over his chest,in an "X" , with both middle fingers flipping off the fans. I have been searching 30 years for that photo, and never had any luck. It was a fantastic image.
  11. This is one my all-time very favorite Bills photos. Saban, Gogolak, Kemp and Carlton...1965. The year I was born. I never saw any of these guys play, but their names, and images are a big part of my coscience.... I know them more from old football cards, and my father and uncles talking about them my whole childhood. My OJ era teams, in their opinion, couldnt hold a candle to these guys.
  12. I could be wrong, but I am pretty sure Rice won it in 1990.
  13. You wanna play with the big boys, you gotta play like a big boy!
  14. As cool as it is, I really like Sundays at 1pm eastern best! When they win these games it is awesome...when they lose them, it makes me somehow feel like I got cheated that week!
  15. Kevin Patullo was really underrated.
  16. You have been in your basement too long...get some fresh air.
  17. It seems like most of the AFC is 7-3 or 6-4.
  18. I acutally feel sorry for the Raiders...a team I don't particularly care for most of the time.
  19. It just doesn't seem fair.
  20. Honestly, unless you are old enough to know the 60's teams (I am not, born in 1965), I am not sure how a 70's Bills fan could name anyone but OJ...but that would make for a boring thread...
  21. Other than the obvious (OJ)I would have to go with Dennis Shaw (my avatar) or Bob Chandler. My Bills memories don't start until the 1972 season.
  22. You know, I watched that game today from begininig to end. I had also watched the Dolphins/Cardinals game a few weeks ago...hadn't seen Tua's other starts. I texted to a freind of mine, a Dolphins fan. that Tua was indeed the "second coming"...the second coming of Tyrod Taylor! He isn't obviously terrible, but he just doesn't do anything that makes me think he anything more than what you see. He is relatively accurate, dosn't make stupid decisions...but he also just doesn't seem like a guy who is taking a team to the "next level". He seems like an NFL level, backup,. lpwer tier starter. I realize, he has only played 4 games, so that could be a knee-jerk, harsh assesment. This was my first time seeing Denver all season...they looked better than I was expecting them to. Lock made some nice plays, and their defense played hard.
  23. The next team Darnold goes to will view him as their potential starter...not a backup for another guy the same age.
