  1. To think that Andy Reid put us to shame with the Mahones trade. He could have sat behind Taylor for a year and look at him now. Sammy Watkins being traded and now at Kansas City... for whatever reason you want to use to justify the trade... he is a WEAPON. Ragland, although limited continues to make plays for the Chiefs. These decisions, along with not having a stable QB situation at the beginning of the season and the % of blowouts we have had make me question how fans can support the McBean twins. Maybe stockpiling 100 draft picks is the way to go but as a 50 plus year fan I think they are failures. i’ll Always have hope and support the Bills but what a disappointment these two are.
  2. You idiot... you and your dodo GM created this disastrous QB situation.
  3. We HAVE to have someone better to return kicks!
  4. Get some “professional” receivers!!!!!
  5. After decades of frustration, to see blowouts 25% of the time leaves little room for patience. If there are petulant statements made by fans, I feel they would become minimal if “professional” players and coaches were to perform at a competitive level.
  6. It's amazing how things change. My Dad started taking me to games at the Rockpile. I have been a fan since their inception. Raising my son in Toledo, he has always been a Bills fan (he is 26).The memories I have throughout the years will always be with me, although we have seen some pathetic teams and coaches over the years. About 20 years ago, my Dad made a simple statement after one of their ridiculous losses... "there is more to life than the Buffalo Bills". My 4 brothers and I have laughed over that expression for years. I follow them, either attend games or watch on Directv but am no less of a fan if I stop watching one of their Barnum and Bailey performances. My son, brothers and I treat the Bills as a "family event" that we enjoy successes with and are disappointed when they play poorly. My Dad passed away this summer and one of the things I will treasure will be the families memories and sufferings of the Bills. Just remember "there is more to life than the Buffalo Bills".
  7. Coordinators and line coach need to go. Maybe that might shake things up.
  8. The blowouts are my greatest frustration. They reflect poor coaching. lack of leadership and a bunch of quitters. Sure, talent (or lack of) is a factor but there are serious other issues when a team is blown out fairly regularly.
  9. Bobby Chandler
  10. 12 men on the field, challenging a call (bottom of the pile) that was not winnable,unprepared and out coached to start the game... I am sure the second half will allow continued “process” discussions... McMoron shows so many weaknesses... but to his credit the coaching staff made some positive halftime adjustments. The negatives seem to outweigh the positives but there were some glimmers of hope.
  11. Is he so unobservant and clueless during games that he cant tell they suck without watching the tape? He inspires no confidence. Loser
  12. Harvey Johnson, Kay Stephenson, Sean McDodo. Yep, can start to compare.
  13. Same here. No opener has compared to this one. Can’t wait to hear coach’s pathetic post game comments.
  14. I have followed the Bills since their inception. I still watch all their games and follow them as a fan. I used to watch all other possible games (1:00, 4:00, 8:00, Monday night but no more. Maturity, more time with family, other interests... I could care less about other teams. I will generally watch the playoffs and Super Bowl but a lot of times only a half or so. Why... spoiled athletes, other interests... I don't have a great explanation, maybe when you get in your sixties you find there is more to life than the NFL. I have had a similar experience with all major professional sports. I lived for the NBA (old Celtic/Lakers rivalries, then Magic versus Bird, but then team play went away and I cant remember the last time I watched an NBA game.
  15. Met him at a church function when I was pretty young. I remember his discussing how he had to work an additional job (along with being a Bill)... how times have changed!
  16. Why pick on Pegula... wasn't Russ there?
  17. When asked that question (homosexual) in the movie "Stripes"... Harold Ramis... "No, but we would be willing to learn".
  18. Harry Jacobs... met him as a kid. I will always remember what a "regular guy" he was and the fact that he told us he had to work a second job to make ends meet. Todays' NFL players probably could not even grasp that concept.
