  1. A. Oliver would be a major setback as everyone already mentioned, by far our best defensive player. Without him, we lose the Ravens game B. Not sure how injured anyone is, but almost all of our cornerbacks/DB are on there (not even including Hairston on IR) 1. Benford 2. Codrington 3. Hancock 4. Johnson 5. Tre' C. Also interesting that 8 of the 11 are on defense.
  2. I would not have gone for it. It was 4th and 3 not 4th and 1. If you don't get it, you basically lose the game since we would have already been in FG Range. T
  3. Agree we need more balance, but possibly one of the reasons we lose when JA throws 40, is that we are behind and having to play catchup. Against the Ravens, he threw 21 passes in JUST the 4th quarter because we were down by 2+ scores
  4. For a true rivalry, - it has to be a 2 way rivalry - they have to play meaningful games against each other - it cannot be one sided - i.e. one team wins all of the time In the 70's we always considered Miami a rival since we lost to them 20x in a row. But to the Dolphins, the Bills were inconsequential. The same goes for the Belichik/Brady Patriots we hated them because they ALWAYS beat us, but they could have cared less about the Bills. Now that the tables have turned on the Dolphins and Pats - that WE beat them all of the time - I don't have any passion about those games The same might apply to the Chiefs since they have beaten us every time in the playoffs As one poster mentioned earlier, we really have not played any meaningful games against the Jets, and our only playoff game against them was in 1981
  5. Bend AND Break!
  6. Does he still have the Buffalo shaved into his hairdo?
  7. I would rather play anyone than them. They are just a BAD matchup for us In retrospect, it was fortunate, we did not make the 2 point conversion. Would have give the Ravens the ball with a chance to win, and if not, in OT anything can happen, and we do not do well in OT
  8. We didn't do much against their Defense until they started playing soft in the 4th Quarter. (the infamous prevent defense that only prevents you from winning!) Also, in the 4th Quarter, I think their defense got gassed - combo of early in the season and their offense not taking any time off the clock
  9. I was at that game too!
  10. Don't also forget ..where the ravens didn't down the Ball at the 1 and it was a touch back ... their missed XP off the goalpost ... Hawes triple juggle on the catch
  11. Season ticket holders who bought PSL's should be given their seats for free!
  12. Coaches having the ability talk directly through a headset to the QB to call plays could make a big difference
  13. But he is 32 years old. Does he have anything left in the tank? Look at Poyer last year with the dolphins who was way too old and way too slow
  14. Totally agree. plus anybody we bring in would not know the playbook and would take time to get chemistry with the receivers. ... but it would be possible to cut one and bring in someone else for the PS
  15. Thanks - I did not notice that - as you said - 2 of the Int's were thrown by non QB's - who were a combined 5 of 13 They might have 2 NFL Records there: 1. Most Passes thrown by non QB 2. Most INT's thrown by non QB
  16. Actually it was 18 TD and 45 Interceptions. And for Tripucka it was an improvement over the previous year when he threw 34 The next year George Blanda threw a still NFL record 42 INT's in 14 Games yet team was 11-3 and he was selected 2nd team All AFL What a great time to have been a DB !
  17. I would not have guessed ANY of them The one with Antowain Smith was actually a "fake" TD. IIRC we were up by 1 point and could have run out of the clock so the Colts let him score Colts got the ball back and scored a TD but missed the 2 point conversion to tie the game Both on the road The video is actually the 10 longest runs in HIGHMARK not all Bills History
  18. PRICES REDUCED FROM THOSE LISTED BELOW: DM for update info No Fees so we both do better than selling on Ticketmaster, Stubhub, ... All games available except for Saints DM for more info
  19. Total revenue [$551] minus Player Expenses [$282] = $269 but op income is $101. What makes up the $159 of additional expenses? How much is for coaches/GM/employees? stadium lease pmts? travel? .... ???
  20. Not just a 1:00 game - the ONLY 1:00 game until the Tampa Bay November 16th
  21. 1. The list of QB's is for their ENTIRE career not just their first 7 years. for example, Aaron Rodgers has 1 super bowl appearance in 20 seasons. 2. Many of the head coaches were in the league when you required fewer wins to make the super bowl. Now with teams generally having 3 games to make the super bowl, it is both a) harder to make and b) easier to gather wins
  22. Met him 2X - his rookie year at training camp - he was up against the goalpost surrounded by throngs of people looking for autographs - at the game against the Jets (sometime in the 80's) where his jersey was retired. Saw him leaving the owner's box and ran after him to get him to sign the poster they had given out from a purely football perspective, still think he was the greatest RB of all time. From a personal life perspective, one of the worst RB's of all time
