  1. Bills had a 4th and 6 early and were punting. Jets jump, Bills move, we got the false start call. Would have made an interesting choice for Dougie if it was 4th and 1 at the Jets 40 instead of 4th and 11. Zebras blew that one but otherwise it looked like an even game. You can forgive the miss on Leodis, that looked good to all of us real time. The taunting calls were weird. Marv would have called the ref an over-officious jerk. Was surprised TJ didn't get one by himself for pushing Gilmore to the wall, er..., for Gilmore dragging TJ to the wall. They must have seen it that way for the offset.

  2. Thank god there are professionals out there that are saying the same thing.

     

    What's really depressing about this is that the Bills would do better just using someone out of the stands. Drafting, same thing. Just follow the draft guides and this team doesn't waste picks on Maybin, Spiller, Troup, McCargo, etc. We're not pros, but even we can see that what Hackett is doing doesn't work. He plays to our weaknesses. I could not believe that we didn't see a single screen pass today, NOT ONE, against the Jets pass rush. It's the only way to keep them honest and not crowd the box. Then you can run. But Nate doesn't see it. It's mind-boggling.

  3. Clearly, the Fitz experience will have everyone running away from this one. At the end of the year, if the Bills make the playoffs, or hell, let's go crazy and say if they just post a winning record for the first time in a decade, I'd see if KO was amenable to extending for 2 more years at $5-6M/year. Let him start and let EJ groom. If you really don't think EJ is it, then draft a QB in late rounds 2015, or wait until early rounds 2016. Face it, we don't have the draft picks next year to do this, and we need guards and a TE badly. Fix the QB position and free up those draft picks to plug the holes in 2015.

  4. The point is he celebrated before he got to the endzone thinking there was no one around him and he got burnt. Then he did it again. The second time just happened to not have anyone around him.

     

    Disagree that the second one was a showboat. All he did was slow down. Smart way to avoid an injury.

  5. @buffalobills

    Doug Marrone on @sammywatkins long non-TD: "I don't expect a guy like him to do that ever again. We don't have time for stuff like that"

     

    I had the same thought. Sammy's a smart guy. He learned his lesson, and didn't celebrate until the end zone on his (should have been 2nd) TD.

     

    But he did it again. The showboat. he was lucky those two defenders gave up on the play

    i dont like it one bit

     

    He didn't do it again. Whatchoo talkin' 'bout Willis?

  6. They were trying to run out the clock in the 3rd quarter in a 2 score game while IN THE RED ZONE. That's ridiculous when there are so many comebacks in the NFL. That is when you kill off the opponent. Dick Jauron did things like that. Jauron won games too, just never enough. Marty Schottenheimer won games like that too, just never a Super Bowl, even with great teams.

     

    'zactly. We never went for the throat after a turnover, except from the 1-yard line. Most teams dial up a play action pass to the end zone, we called 5 runs up the middle.

  7. The point is missed, especially after a win like this. The Bills had 5 turnovers in Jets territory today (forget the 6th one, AW's interception return to the 1). Hackett ran up the middle on every single one. Not once, (ONCE!) did he call a play action and then go for the throat. This is what NFL teams do after a big turnover. The Bills should have been up 42-0 in the first half. Somehow, the Jets were within 7-10 points for large stretches of the game. We didn't choke them out until Chandler's TD. If we can't convert turnovers to real points against teams like GB and the Cheats*, we will not win.

  8. Say what you want about Flutie, the little bastid was a winner. He was the best we've had after Kelly, so I don't get the hate at all. A lot of people here always talk about how they want Incognito, or they don't care about character, they just want to win. Flutie gave you that, yet you still hate him. I don't get it.
