Week 5: Bills at Titans on Tuesday Night Football
Figster replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I have to give B B and the Pats some credit on how they have handled the situation. Beating KC without Cam Newton was an impossible mountain to climb but wouldn't you know it, the score is 3 to 6 at halftime. Amazing... -
GDT: Vice Presidential Debate
Figster replied to Trump_is_Mentally_fit's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
Half truths, Harris does what any good lawyer or politician does and without the history lesson most people will only remember the fact that it happened IMO. I came away from the debate with a win for Mike Pence. Although I'm not hating how Harris handled herself and overall I think she held her own IMO. -

If you extend the season a couple of weeks I see no reason why you can't make those games up IMO. Resting the starters happens fairly frequently nearing the end of the season anywsay IMO. You still worked hard enough apparently to earn the rest. Every team eligible for the playoffs needs to have played the same amount of games IMO. -

The whole situation also becomes more complicated when one team misses consecutive games on the schedule IMO. I think you start having to think about stetching the season out a couple weeks for make up games. Interesting thought.... So no, its no surprise the NFL is dragging their feet on how to proceed. -

I thought the fly was stuck in hair spray for a minute. I kept waiting for Harris to end one of her answers with " and you have a bug in your hair Mike" It was a big sucker and she was staring right at it. I liked her demeanor and thought she handled herself well IMO. A few missed opportunities perhaps -

The reason I personally don't mind a later date on the game is to keep our players healthy. KC Thursday night... -

You say deserves a forfeit. Historically does anyone know If this has ever even been done before? -

I think this is a tough situation for all NFL Teams and players to be in IMO. Depending on location some have it tougher then others. I for one do not want a Buffallo Win from another teams forfeiter. I mean how far would the league be willing to go with this because I'm sure the Titans organization would like to defend themselves. If the league starts handing out game forfeiters for violation of safety protocols what does that do to the integrity of the game.How many more teams are going to run into problems? I get where your coming from. I'm not totally against game forfeiter as a last resort. -

If you start forfeiting games because of broken safety protocols I think a whole new can of worms gets opened up. The legitimacy of a championship starts getting put into question IMO. Costly fines, draft picks, to me this is a better way to get serious IMO. -

Week 5: Bills at Titans on Tuesday Night Football
Figster replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
The whole league needs a break in the action and the season extended on the calendar before we start forcing teams to forfeit games IMO. Some teams by way of location are facing different obstacles and circumstances IMO. A one or two week break every 4 games (quarter) I think it gives us a better chance of finishing the season with good results IMO -

Anyone Else Having Trouble Dealing with this Success?
Figster replied to Shaw66's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I remember how I felt when JK was in his prime. Despite losing 4 straight Superbowls I went into every game believing the Buffao Bills were the better team. It was partly the homer in me I know, but its the end product of what a winning culture feels like IMO. We had great coaching back then , great GM, great players. Great chemistry and brotherhood across the board (Oh, and last , but not least, a great QB.) Sound familar? I look forward to that feeling again Mark Vader... -
Allen has stopped running??? Any reason
Figster replied to Billsfan1972's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
The threat to run is always there and it helps open up an explosive passing attack. You Digg? -
ROCKPILE REVIEW - FInding Ways to Win

The season so far almost reminds me of a video game with Allen at the controls where the bosses keep getting tougher level by level. One more level to clear before Buffalo plays the big boss. MERCY!!! -
Anyone Else Having Trouble Dealing with this Success?
Figster replied to Shaw66's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
For many years when things started going wrong for the Bills in a game it had a domino effect that more often then not ended in a loss. I've always had pride in how hard the Bills would fight to the bitter end. I suppose you could say the never give up and never say die attitude was the culture the Buffalo Bills have built for themselves over the last 2 decades. Then along comes McD and the process. As noble as Buffalo's culture was McD wanted more. So McD started the process. I think changing of a culture starts at the top and works its way from the inside out. For us to believe the coaches and players had to believe 1st. Long lasting culture change is a hard nut to crack in my humble opinion. Still, Its happening now, as I finish this post. Do you Billieve!!! -
ROCKPILE REVIEW - FInding Ways to Win
Figster replied to Shaw66's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
It was interesting to see how well B B could stop Mahomes and the Chiefs last night. I'm of the opinion had Cam Newton been able to play the Pats probably win the game. Great thing about brilliant coaches is they help pave the way for the rest of the league IMO. Its not going to be easy, but Mahomes and Co. can be beat... -
ROCKPILE REVIEW - FInding Ways to Win
Figster replied to Shaw66's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Always an upside to gaining more yards IMO. Easier kick for our kicker that missed an extra point. 1st down, TD. I get your point OP, my characterization of the mistake is just a little different. Clearly getting sacked was not Allens intention. -
ROCKPILE REVIEW - FInding Ways to Win
Figster replied to Shaw66's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I get it, I was upset myself. I guess my point is do we want to take away to much from what comes natural to Allen on the playing field? The play dragged out, but the tackle was bang, bang, and probably caught Allen off guard a little IMO. Boneheaded would be to fumble or throw a pic 6 in my humble opinion OP. I just don't think intellect had much to do with the sack. Oppositions D made a great play. -

Figster replied to Hapless Bills Fan's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Norman made a difference today. As the Bills evolve into an explosive high scoring O its possible the Bills D will slip some in the stats as desperation mounts with the opposition. Oddly enough, generally speaking around the NFL Offensive units appear to be a little ahead of the leagues D's IMO. -
