    You know folks, even if this move backfires badly........................

     

    I still LOVE the decision to bench Taylor.

     

    It has been painfully obvious to us Bills fans that Taylor is not the answer and they needed to move on from him.

     

    And if it works out, the Bills might not need to draft a QB next spring and just sign a vet QB to help Peterman.

     

    Either way, I love this decision and it is a win-win for the Bills and the fans.

     

    And even if Peterman fails miserably, I WILL NOT BASH McDermott or Beane in the least. And I won't backtrack one bit if this is a massive failure.

     

    Curious as to what you guys think.

    I really don't care how well Nate looks on Sunday or for as long as he's playing...you still draft a QB high. 

     

    All in all though I expect good things and think he will play well.

    It's weird to see a QB drop back, make a read and then just throwing before there is any pressure.

    After the Saints got done dismantling our Bills I watched the Rams/Texans game. I found myself transfixed watching Tom Savage get the ball, get rid of it and move on to the next play. Tom. Freaking. Savage. That's how terrible Taylor has been lately. I got a football boner watching Tom Freaking Savage.

    Tom Brady claiming he can't get hurt because of hydration or whatever cultish thing he has going is insulting to every player ever seriously injured.  I wonder what Daryl Stingley thinks of this moron.

    At least he didn't say he doesn't listen to what fans say and do...:P0:)

    If you are tired of the thread it is really simple, ignore it

    This is like people who complain about a TV show. Just change the channel.

    I mean, the NFL is a TV show. If you don't like what you see...change the channel.

     

    And yes, you are tired for being a blue collar worker. And we all know us blue collar people are the only ones allowed to be tired. Sore. Injured. Get over yourself man. Whatever you do as work I'm willing to bet a year salary it's nowhere close to as high impact to your body as an NFL player. Tired. Tired.

    Didn't look like quitting to me so much as having a lack of intensity and desire to hit people. Too much clutch and grab and trying to punch or strip the ball out. Short week, road game, poor preparation may have played a role?  Gotta beat the Saints. Bring it!!

    I was thinking this as well watching the game. It's like they heard about how great they were creating turnovers and just went for that. Gotta wrap up. Let 2nd guy in go for the ball.

    I think the player's quit on the idea of playing anymore on Thursday night's. Ask Richie. Losing Dareus had a small effect. The Jest gameplanned we'll against us. Wright instead of Gaines hurt. No pass rush from anyone? Sometimes you just have one of those games. They didn't quit on McD or the process.  Just an odd night.

    Losing Dareus I don't feel was as big as not having Milano out there. Guy can create a spark.

    You all saw the game Thursday. The Jets ran the ball for 194 yards. Missed tackles all over the field

    At 3:39 of the 4th Quarter Matt Forte practically walked on lst down 5 yards into the end zone untouched'

    for a 31-7 Jets lead.

     

    Phil Simms on CBS said Monday "Missed tackles are a big thing. That tells you they (the players) don't have

    enough guys hustling". Rodney Harrison on NBC said Sunday "When you don't respect your coach,

    players will quit on you

    So was the defense so bad, worse in the 2nd half,  because

    1. The defense quit

    2. Or no Dareus

    3. Or the Jets saw something on tape no other offense had seen this year.

     

    Whatever you think, Drew Brees is coming to New Era Sunday and he is no chopped liver. 3rd all time in

    NFL Career Passing Yards with over 68,000. 4th all time is Mr. Brady with over 64,000.

     

    Will the defense meet the challenge  Sunday? 

     

    Ever have a bad day at work? Now imagine your job is broadcast all over the country. This is pretty much what I think happened Thursday. Bad day at the office.

     

    Here's something though...I'm really glad Brees comes in this week. Glad the Saints have a 6 game win streak and really glad we are no longer the talk of the NFL programs. Back to being the underdogs. Buffalo will rebound this week. 

     

    Where did Aaron Rodgers have his career worst game again? Right here in Buffalo. Brees in front of our crowd isn't as intimidating as he would be in NO. 

     

    Buffalo wins this one. Brees won't top 250 yards.

  7. Maybe in the good old days there was a bonus. A lot of guys were from an area, played college ball in the area and got drafted to teams more local. A California kid coming to Buffalo to play was a huge advantage. 

     

    These days people play college ball further from home and get drafted wherever. Plus with free agency being what it is, a guy doesn't spend his whole career in one city. Opens the door to playing in all types of conditions. Nothing to back this idea up, just my own personal hunches.

  8. My favorite memory had to do with one former Bill. Fred Smerlas. I was but a wee lad, maybe 7 or 8 when my mom came home from work one cold, snowy afternoon. She had heard that the big guy was coming to Batavia for a meet and greet at the tiny mall there.

     

    We got there on time and there were maybe 100-150 people already there. Time came for him to show up...no Fred. Half hour later...no Fred. People were getting frustrated and the atmosphere was tense. It was getting loud and people were being obnoxious. 

     

    Suddenly the crowd just got dead silent and I looked up to see a mountain of a man walk past. No joke (to an 8 year old) this was the biggest man alive. He walked up to the front and said in his loud voice..."Yea, got stuck in the snow. It happens."

     

    He stayed way past his allotted time to make sure everyone got an autograph. I still remember being in awe when it was my turn, he signed my Melton's Smerlas sweatshirt, a football card and asked me who my favorite player on the team was. I panicked and said it was Joe Theisman.

    At the time, the wins over Denver, Atlanta, Oakland, and Tampa Bay looked like signature wins.  But those teams are not living up to expectations this season - none is above .500 right now.

     

    With 6 of our final 8 games against teams currently .500 or better are we about to get gut-punched back to reality?

     

    I'm trying to trust the process and not compare to past Bills teams, but it's tough...

    Look at it like this, in the past we likely would have lost 3 of those games at least. Now move one loss to the win column of each team. Looks a bit better now.

    After watching hard knocks I seriously have doubts about Winstons "leadership" abilities...the guy is....strange.

     

     

     

    This guy is exactly like that drunk Uncle at the 4th of July cookout. Being loud and obnoxious, wanting to fight everyone. Then someone pops him in the mouth and he starts crying.

    I played my college lacrosse on northern half of the east coast so I can attest to that. It's miserable to play in.

     

     

     

    Hoping the game ends in our favor but we shall see. Bills have a great fan base and New Era should be rocking. 

     

    The Ryan brothers are cancer. I'm glad both of our teams rid themselves of those two.

    What’s with the Marv Lewis hate? How many times have the Bungles been to the playoffs in the past 5 years? Exactly.

     

    I know being a fan of the Bills, we tend to forget that MAKING the playoffs isn't really the goal year after year. After making the playoffs year after year and never advancing it's time to move on. 

     

    I don't see him being the first one gone as someone is surely going to pull the trigger before the end of the season. Bengals will be classy and let him resign at the end of this season is my best bet.
