Offensive ineptitude has reached a level of criminal proportions. How nate hackett still has a job is beyond me. Sitting in the NYC bills bar, some girl behind me is watching her first Bills game. Shes demonstrated a significant amount of football knowledge thus far. About half way through the third quarter, she says "You guys really need a new coach." Boy was she right.
Honestly, I would not be that surprised. The way the calls go in this league, it sometimes seems that refs have marching orders. I tend to think that they like to throw flags more often to get a team back in the game and make it exciting, but I could see why they would be going the other way on this one.
So Nate... who is your worst overall player on offense? Eric Pears. So Nate, if it's fourth and short, who are you going to run it behind? Eric Pears. Derp!!! That'll fool em. And just for fun, I'm gunna have Orton turn the other way first. That'll fool em more!
I keep seeing these "trade Manuel" threads. There is no team in the NFL that would give up anything for him. Maybe a sixth or seventh rounder if they desperately needed a backup. Where do you people keep getting the idea that he has any trade value? Just because the Bills were dumb enough to spend a first on him does not mean he has anywhere close to that actual value.
I don't think it's been discussed too much, but Schmidt has done a pretty darn good job punting the ball this year! Certainly an upgrade for our special teams. Also, didn't realize how shredded he was. Our punter can beat up your punter, <insert team>
Hey, Romo for president?? Who are you anyways? If you like the Cowboys QB, you don't like Buffalo. And if you don't like Buffalo, you don't love America. And if you don't love 'Merica, you can GIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIT OUT
I can't cheer a loss, no matter how hard I try... but some small part of me is thanking the football gods that EJ didn't suck his way out of a loss vs. Houston and manage to keep his tentative hold on the job. Making the change at QB is by far the best thing that's happened to this team so far this year. Orton has been very solid. Wishing EJ the best. Maybe time on the bench will help... I'm doubtful, but who knows.
In the meantime, Kyle Orton is the undisputed starting quarterback for the Buffalo Bills. GO KO! GO BILLS!
It was a rookie mistake. Anyone who's trying to pile on our superstar about it needs to BTFO because this kid is amazing, and we are lucky to have him. If you are doing anything but cheering him on you are a fool. Let the coaches handle the celebration thing. In the meantime, just cheer for him because... Sammy.
