  1. What was so special about McD that suggests R W couldn't have made the same hire? It was another gamble on Buffalo's part hiring a coach with zero head coaching experience IMO. Don't get me wrong, I'm very thankful for the Pegula's. I'm just not less thankful for R W...
  2. Clearly nothing about McD or Beane jumping out at you that suggests Ralph Wilson couldn't have made the same hire IMO I mean I'm sure its a much different story now with their success in Buffalo. I remember a time when Ralph was real close to coaxing Bill Cowher out of retirement. Its not like R W didn't try...
  3. They beat the Titans and Ravens in back to back games recently. Pittsburgh flys under the radar until you play them...
  4. A long, long time agoI can still remember how that music used to make me smileAnd I knew if I had my chance that I could make those people danceAnd maybe they'd be happy for a while
  5. Another positive sign that goes beyond the stats is the love and brotherhood building in the Bills locker room. The Bills played inspired football on Sunday vs the Seahawks. I think it might be safe to say the team played for Josh more then anything. and man did they play...
  6. The Bills 3rd quarter woes have been well documented. Half time adjustments or lack there of is an area the Buffalo Bills need to improve IMO. I think what might be happening on O is a good 1st half begs for more of the same until the opposition stops it. Opposition makes halftime adjustsments on D, the Bills are hindered by the adjustments and counter attack. Normally the 3rd quarter ends up being less productive in the process. My remedy would be to have a more scripted 3rd quarter start that is different then the overall game plan. A heavy dose of run if the passing game was succesful in the 1st half by way of example. On D the solution is obvious IMO. McD's expertise is a must when it comes to halftime or on the fly adjustments. I like Leslie Frazier and I think he's a good coach. From an innovative standpoint though McD's expertise needs to utilized to its fullest potential in my humble opinion. I think there's a fine line between allowing your coaches to coach without stepping on their toes while maintaining enough control to make game management adjustments. The New England Patriots are always a well coached team and it starts at the top. B B is sprinkled into everything IMO. Myself personally, I'm a big fan of disguising ones intentions. Keeping the opposition on its toes and 2nd guessing. Its what this team is built for and fully capable of doing on both sides of the football IMO. (On a side note: it would be interesting to see how the coin toss to start the game relates to the 3rd quarter for teams. Buffalo seems to be losing the coin toss more often then not.)
  7. Fan of Tua and I agree, ( I'm fighting it ) Not one person in the league I would prefer more over Allen. Good competition makes the games more enjoyable IMO. It makes each team in the Division better IMO.
  8. Josh Allen is a very intelligent QB with a HC constantly preaching play smart football. Its a winning combination when it comes to game management IMO.
  9. The Klein take away sealed the deal for me also. Throughout the game the play of Edmunds seemed in sharp contrast to how he has played in recent weeks. The D following his lead. Pure speculation on my part. It would not surprise me If McD had more involvement in the game planning of the Seahawks then he has earlier on in the season. Resulting in better schemes for Edmunds and the Bills D to execute. Again, speculation, but something changed IMO.
  10. Can someone please stamp Josh Allens career completion percentage onto Terry Bradshaws forehead so he's reminded every time he looks in the mirror. Awwww come on man!
  11. All athletes benefit from superior talent / coaching and with Tua displaying the same confidence and comfort level in a Chan Gailey NFL Offense as I've seen Tua play with under Saban in just 2 games speaks volumes IMO. There is a contest and we get to see these guys compete on the biggest stage football has to offer.
  12. I enjoy the variation in writing styles. Virgils thoughts normally tend to bend more toward how the game is perceived from the eyes of the fan real time. The review tends to bend more towards the bigger picture. A more worldly look. Articulate and factual. Both writing styles entertaining in their own way IMO. I know both of you are also more accustomed to giving in person stadium accounts and I look forward to the time we can all enjoy them together again. Thanks fellas
  13. It was a game of many great performers with Edmunds near the top of the list for me. Nice review OP
  14. I haven't seen much eating of the crow...
  15. The same way Dan Marino made Jim Kelly and the Buffalo Bills better, I agree Tua fish sandwiches twice a year...
  16. Edmunds best game of the season. Oh my Josh!!!
  17. Edmunds is back in the saddle again!
  18. I view Joe Biden as a bridge over troubled waters.
  19. Will it go round in circles, will it fly high like a bird up in the skyWill it go round in circles, will it fly high like a bird up in the sky
  20. Who stands to gain more with proof of destroyed Ballots? We are talking tens of thousands would need to be destroyed to change the outcome.
  21. Finding common ground is essential for our democracy to flourish in my humble opinion.
  22. Beasley on O A healthy Milano on D My secret weapon in the waiting, Duke Williams
  23. My point is Coach and with all due respect. There's been plenty of animosity to go around from both sides. So much so its become next to impossible to bridge the gap on anything. My biggest concern right now is the crisis at hand and it requires unity.
