I noticed the JA mention had several "just now" posts, lol

JA mention there from al

williams?

I ended up getting the upgrade a year or so back. just basically upgraded my 7 home edition to 10. I was hesitant at first but found once you get in and start navigating around it's actually a pretty good upgrade from 7. I used xp for years skipping everything between it and 7 and then finally moved to 7 in 2012.

on a serious note. the showcase of Bruce's life and football career was awesome. brought back a lot of memories. that team had a chip, kind of like this young team now does. but no doubt Bruce Smith was a dominate force to reckon with and became one hell of a human being.

always thought he was kind of mellow

I just want to get past baltimore. I would like to see them win out and go 13-3, division title, afcc game and hoist the lombardi. want I want and what happens are yet to be determined. I believe in their chances though, they have so far proven to me they have the fight in them to win football games. no, he's not 42 years old or 50 or however old marcia is. young, strong and still needs as much game experience as possible. jm2c

personally, I like the trash talk. this thread on the other hand, not so much.

4-2 at home. protect your house!

the guy can't even locate the chirping smoke detector.

one member does stand out to me in regards to the comparison. very poor comparison I may add.

I believe this is now a bills team that can get past those bad calls. in the past those calls likely get in to their heads and the distraction would of taken them off balance and caused a loss. the good teams get past the penalties, they are showing they are a good team and move on to the next play. this is a league wide issue with the refs, not just game to game. it can get overblown when it does/has somehow managed to have a negative affect on the outcome of a game. don't get me wrong, I'm not against the obvious blatant calls that mainly helped one team that is soon to be at the end of its run.

good stuff OP, I do believe a lot of questions are being answered and it is very cool to witness this teams growth week to week. the "number 9" at the end caught my attention and immediately thought of the white album.

he has the leg. he's not handling the pressure. it would be wise to turn the leaf this off season as it would not be good to be in a play off game on the line and not trust in your kicker. I don't trust him anymore.

I actually predicted them to win yesterday, in a close one. they by far went over my expectations and JA and the defense as well as some fine coaching by both McD and Daboll was certainly a sight to see. my slightest skepticism comes from the fact they they still need to go further with a dominating win at home against the ravens who now sit at number one in total offense and a top 10 defense as well. they showed yesterday, as a defense while dallas had presently sat with the number one total offense, they could shut them and the critics down, a hell of a statement to say the least. as for the media, their tune was totally changed by half time and all four of those so called experts ate crow and it should of been fed to them cold and raw. the ravens are not the dallas cowboys as was show cased this past monday night so after meeting and fulfilling that challenge yesterday, this will be by far their toughest one to date. I believe in this young team enough to know they have a chance to win next week but I also have to know there is a chance they may not win. I will be okay with that because as I have said recently before the cowgirls game that even with a loss it is a part of the development and growth this team and JA needs to reach the level of the top echelon teams and right now, the ravens are at the top. yes, I'm overlooking the patsies* but honestly, I'm doing that because I do not believe they're the team to beat at this stage of the season and how they have just been squeaking out wins, wins that really have not impressed me like the pats* of old. I do believe buffalo has a good chance to beat them in foxboro dec. 21. I want to see them dominate at home, they've proven themselves on the road but I feel like the great Bruce Smith " you have to protect your house when the teams come in to play you on your home turf, you have to establish dominance". I'm not an analytics /stats kind of fan, I look at what I see on the field and I can confidently say that this team is going to make it's mark, as it has already and I believe they will reach that level of the top echelon teams. but there is still more to see and I need to see dominance at home, against the ravens to be able to take what may be that last sigh of relief and drain what little skepticism I may have left. there was a time, years ago, I would wake up every sunday for about 5 or 6 seasons straight knowing, believing and confident that any team facing the bills, they were winning. yeah, they lost some, 4 on the biggest stage but you always felt they were going to win, especially at home. it's nice to know that that feeling is not too far off. GO BILLS!!!

what isn't there to understand Joe? what should I do as a fan? call them superbowl contenders? division leader? the best team in the afc or nfl for that matter? I mean the thread is based off that team(s) should not want to see buffalo? nothing wrong with wanting to see them win at home against the ravens before getting my emotions too high with the thought that every team should now fear the buffalo bills. I also made the comment that they are definitely coming together as a team. at the right time of the year I may add but as a long, long standing bills fan who has had the sails taken out from under him for years and years of incompetence, has every right to be a little skeptical at this point. sorry Joe that I am not at your fan hood level but I will say that I am very grateful as a fan that my team showed up on thanksgiving, showing the nation this team is on the rise. nuff said.

that was my biggest concern about the game, how they show up. wait, what, I was concerned? really though to look like they did on the national stage made me proud to be a bills fan. real proud.

get to 10-3 first. at this point of the season, it really is one game at a time.

definitely should be top priority this off season. haus money is cashed out!
