  1. XTC has been disappointing, what with not playing all that well his first two years and the 1-game suspension last week. But dude was a terror today, all over the field. Spikes was quiet, but tied things up. Preston Brown rebounded from a tough game last week, but he's still a rook, so plenty of upside there. Adding Kiko to this group will give us probably the best LB's in the NFL outside of San Fran.

  2. Marrone is finally establishing an identity worthy of the Bills blue-collar heritage. We beat up Chicago, we beat up Miami, and now we're going to beat up Whale's Vagina. Pound the rock, stop the run, and beat the crap out of anybody with the ball. The other team's quarterback must go down, and he must go down hard. Still not a big fan of Marrone, but dude is seriously old school physical.

  3. Considering Miami's only TD came after an uncalled false start penalty on 4th down and two consecutive defensive backfield penalties resulting in 1st downs, I'm not feeling too bad about a possible gift TD.

     

    This. The refs were uniformly terrible on both sides of the ball, starting with the Chandler call that forced us to waste a challenge. The missed false start on 4th down was brutal. They owed us one after that.

  4. Wow….I had no idea Frank Reich was that high in the coaching ranks.

     

    I still hear ESPN calling him Frank "Third" Reich on the highlights….not sure that would fly in today's hyper-sensitive PC world!

     

    I still remember the 97Rock sketch, "Give the ball to Muellah" in a thick German accent. Muellah was Jamie Mueller. Definitely not PC these days.

  5. Bill,

     

    Always enjoyed reading your posts these many years. My comments below.

     

    1. Da'Norris played well today. The 4th down stop on Tannehill was huge. Dude is a baller.

     

    2. Borrowing from Dickie V, Chandler is a Dow Joneser.

     

    3. Wake was a non-factor, Seantrel had a fantastic day.

     

    4. College open, awesome take!

     

    5. Remember when we thought Marrone was a Maroon for CJ at KR? That's why he's a coach and we female dog about it here. That play alone won the game.

     

    6. Right now, Corey Graham is the best off-season FA signing by ANY team.

     

    7. Cameron needed to Wake up to find out that Bills Fans are the Eyes of the World (one of my top 5 Dead songs).

     

    8. Sammy Watkins, Jr. He's just a cool cat, babe....

     

    9. Boobie is the breasts.

     

    10. We're Only Making Plans for Nigel is finally showing what we saw in college. Preston Brown made a nice comeback and looks like a playa just in need of experience.

     

    12. I liked EJ's play today. OK, he missed a couple throws, but he started to look very comfy in the read option. Looking good for his 12th NFL game.

     

    13. Gilmore was not a shining light. Hopefully it's just a nagging injury and he'll come back to form.

     

    14. Mario Williams was a monster today!

  6. I've always felt that Chandler has good hands. But the last year or so, he's had lapses in talent, or something. Hopefully he gets back to reliability on a consistent basis.

     

    And yes, hell of a catch!

     

    Agreed, Chandler's hands have been suspect, especially in the ATL game last year. Hopefully he's past that now. At least it looks like he's not likely to be our leading receiver again in 2014.

  7. Bob,

     

    I want to thank you for pissing me off so much that I finally signed up for TSW. Blasphemy and apostasy such as yours must be met with firm resistance.

     

    Fred must have left his jockstrap at home today. Terrible game for him. 12 for 24...yikes. Expect more like this from him this year. Maybe spiller can finally get on the field in the red zone if jackson keeps sucking terribly. Silly to leave the best player on the sideline when we can't even score in the red zone.

     

    Fred had a huge catch out of the backfield early to set up a field goal. Miami sold out on the run to have EJ beat them though the air, which EJ did.

  8. We measure players here by whether they can carry Fred's jockstrap. Five jockstraps is 2011 MVP Fred, one jockstrap is Fred in the making.

     

    5 jockstraps

     

    CJ Spiller - By far the best player on the field. Had the play of the game. Miami breaks the shutout to close the lead to 9-3. CJ answers with 102 yd KOR for 6 (EP by Dan the Man), and the Bills recaptured the Mo that Miami stole at the beginning of the 2nd half.

     

    Corey Graham - Had another monster game in the secondary, 4 passes defensed. A brilliant signing by OBD.

     

    Sammy Watkins - Fantastic coming out party at home for the rook. We will see a lot of Sammy this year,

     

    4 jockstraps

     

    Seantrel Henderson - With Cameron Wake's performance last week against the Patriots*, the spotlight was on Henderson. Never saw Wake pressure EJ at all. This troubled 7th round pick looks like the steal of the 2014 draft right now. Hopefully the young man's issues are behind him, and he'll be the Bills RT for a long long time.

     

    3 jockstraps

     

    Defensive line - Williams, Dareus, Hughes, and Williams were monsters all day, clogging running lanes and pressuring Tannehill all day. This defense is for real.

     

    Nigel Bradham - All over the field today, and a pass defensed. Also had the 2nd biggest hit of the day.

     

    Robert Woods - Another solid receiving effort from Woods. He also had the hit of the day when he absolutely destroyed the Miami KR.

     

    Coaching - Marrone's staff owns Philbin's staff. When Carpenter hit the upright, CBS showed Philbin pumping both fists and screaming YEAH!, down 26-10 with like 5 minutes to go. Idiot. I'm not a Marrone fan, but he was right about CJ as a KR, so maybe he's not Maroon. And we gotta give Crossman some props for the ST play. Nice when you got players and a guy who can actually punt (and I'm a huge Moorman fan, but it was time).

     

    Boobie Dixon - almost forgot about Anthony, but the best punt block since Jason Peters and some tough late runs gets you 3 jocks.

     

    2 jockstraps

     

    EJ Manuel - Missed some touchdown throws early, but managed the game efficiently and took care of the rock. Getting more comfortable with his option reads. Nice to see the developing chemistry with Sammy. Needs to go to the Caveman more.

     

    1 jockstrap

     

    Bills Secondary other than Graham - Leodis solid, late INT to seal it, Williams, Williams, solid, Robey knocking out Moreno, Gilmore (well, not so much).
