    Any news on this? I know there was a fair share of rumbling and speculation in past years, but some inside sources tell me it's been picking up again recently, especially north of the border.

    You have "inside sources" and you come here to verify them?  Those must be some sources!

    At best 2-2 I can see the Bills winning against the Pats once and losing away and same thing with the Dolphins 

    or 

    Pats sweep the Bills and we sweep the Dolphins 

    or 

    Pats sweeps the Bills and we split against the Dolphins . Bills beating the Dolphins at Miami in a meaningless garbage game 

    or 

    Worst case scenario Bills will be 0-4 against the Pats and the Dolphins 

    There is no way we will be 3-1 and of course forget being 4-0 

    This is a brilliant post.  Thanks, lots of food for thought.

    There was also the playoff loss a little earlier that year as well in January. 

     

    Oh, that playoff loss!  It was one of the most heartbreaking losses ever, yes, including Wide Right.  The Bills won 11 games that year after 4 straight losing seasons (including a 2-win season in '76).  Joe Ferguson was playing on a badly-strained ankle and played heroically.  Bills had a 14-3 lead at halftime but couldn't hold on, and Fergy had a difficult time passing on a very windy day. The Bills gave up a long TD late to Dan Fouts.

     

    I was watching it with my father and a friend of his.  After it was over, the friend said "Oh well, it's just a game."  I wanted to kill him.

    ....yup, the Dareus trade allows us to SOLELY attribute giving up 500yds  rushing to just that......oft injured and playing less than 40% of the snaps.....makes PERFECT sense......

    So your explanation for the 500 yards is what, exactly?  A team with a HOF quarterback runs the ball 24 straight times?  What do they see that makes them do this? 

  5. The reporters covering the Bills won't say it because they still have to have access to the players, but the Bills' defense has quit.  Period.  The Saints game was characterized by tackling that would get guys benched on a high school team. Sure Marcel Dareus is gone, but you ARE allowed to replace him with another player.  It seems that there was nobody home on the D line all day. 

     

    The missed tackles happened in the secondary.  Before that the Bills consistently failed to make contact with the runner at the line of scrimmage.

     

    The drive that ended in the Brees touchdown was the single most amazing drive I have ever seen in many years of watching football.  They were ripping off 10 yards on every play when the Bills knew what was coming.

     

    I've been thinking of replacing my Stadium Wall pic because the dumpster fire seemed to have gone away with Rex and Whaley but I'm going to leave it for now.

     

    And I'm bracing myself for all of the "Start Peterman" threads.  Only an idiot would think that a QB change would make any difference on this team.
