  1. If they were the only Thursday games of the year I’d agree.
  2. I think you nailed it on the head by calling it a defense mechanism.
  3. Not this season. Why do you refuse to acknowledge the quality of the D?
  4. Bullcrap. They have things we have to be concerned with, sure. And the Cowboys don't? They have to play against a top ranked defense, they have to deal with a team that just rang up over 200 yards on the ground. Why do Bills fans insist on being so negative and pessimistic?
  5. with an excellent run defense.
  6. I’m sick and tired of reading about why we should be worried about Dallas. They should be worried about a top ranked pass D that can shut down Prescott. They should be worried about an offense that piled up over 200 yards on the ground against a good defensive team in Denver. They should be worried about how to defend the top WR for yardage in the AFC. They should be worried about a young QB who can beat you with his arm and/or his legs.
  7. Thanks for including this. I agree having the ability to go back and look time and again is helpful
  8. No, lot of other very proud moments the last 39 that don't relate to the Bills of course. But as for the Bills to sit there and watch us finally squish the Fish after a decade of futility is one of the great memories. Fueled by a bit of alcohol that day to be sure. I never wore clogs or a mullet, Mighty Taco saved me more times than I can count after a long night of imbibing, I actually did the funnel one night at Cassidy's, and taring down the posts was a rite of passage!
  9. That's a flaw in the all-22 analysis. It assumes that the reviewer knows the assignments of a given player and such. It also assumes the reviewer is knowledgeable enough about the intricacies of football that the opinion is of value. I confess I don't watch these all 22 things or similar sites because to me football is the ultimate team game, so an individual grade on a player (and given the caveats above) aren't of interest. For those fixated on such Joe B may be right on point or way off. He has his job to do and I think from what I've read of his past material he is a good writer and takes his analysis seriously. Either way Miller didn't do much and my team won; the latter is all I really care about in the end.
  10. One of the proudest moments of my life was helping carry the posts to Ralph’s box on opening day 1980.
  11. Why is having any RT get some help blocking a star like Miller a big deal?
  12. Have to pick your poison. I don't think Ingram can beat us by himself. Jackson can. we also need to control the ball on offense and keep Jackson off the field. Should be a pretty good game, seeing as we;'ll also be coming off the high of beating the 'Boys.
  13. Do what the Chargers did last year. Put Milano and Edmunds and 5 DBs on the field. They played7 DBs but Edmunds and Milano are fast enough to sub in for that.
  14. He and Sneed forgot you win up front. The O line stinks.
  15. I don’t get it. I honestly don’t get it. Sure , the next few games should he good tests. But why do fans of the team assume the sky is falling? I get it from national pundits who know bupkus about the Biils, but the fans? We can’t beat teams in a shoot out? What makes you think we’ll get in a shootout? That happens when teams can throw on you and score quickly. Is there anything about the Bills pass defense that would suggest that? Run defense? Maybe. But what about them defending our running game? Denver had a well ranked run defense and we had our way with them. We’ll see what happens. But let’s get psyched, stop with the worrying!
  16. Good point. I love the depth now -best thing Beane did the off season was sign O linemen.
  17. Thanksgiving and the Bills always brings back memories of the Juice shredding the Lions.
  18. We’ll do our normal service work in the AM, come home and start cooking, and eat before the game. Just a quick word on the greatness of Bills fans. My older daughter moved to Orlando a few weeks ago and was immediately embraced by fellow crazies at Kitty O’Shea’s. Today when she asked who would be there on Thursday she was inundated with invitations for Thanksgiving. Her first holiday away but she’ll be with her new Bills family!.
  19. I’m not so sure Morse should start at C over Feliciano
  20. L like how they game is going but enough already with the fake going for it. And a TO too?
  21. They don’t reverse that they should just get rid of replays.
