    THE ROCKPILE REVIEW - Taking Care of Business at MetLife

    in The Stadium Wall Archives

    Posted

    Good stuff, I like this team a lot and really loved the way Allen played overall yesterday.

     

    A couple of small things...even though it's been a McDermott staple...I'm hoping the conservativeness yesterday was because we were playing a bad team, but even that almost came back to bite us. I just don't think you can take the foot off the gas pedal in this league. You leave that door open and teams are going to come back on you, especially the mediocre to top teams. Really not a fan of kneeling with 45 seconds left and 2 timeouts at the end of the half and the really conservative offense in the 3rd quarter. Lets put these teams away when we have a chance!

     

    The other thing is maybe Gore makes sense in a goalline situation...but I feel like we're wasting a lot of other plays with him. He looks really slow. I don't want to waste those plays against good teams. 

     

    But overall the team looks good and outside of Allen, the improvement with the D-line is really encouraging. QB and D-line are the keys to closing out games.

    I would give him an A-.

     

    I probably judge less by stats than from what I see, which these days isn't popular, but I felt like he played a winning game. He led us to big drives when we needed them. 

     

    I too was not thrilled with how conservative we got at the end of the half and 3rd quarter. We got a lucky break with the non-fumble call that could have really changed the complexion of the game. 

     

    I like our D, but not enough to be that conservative with a lead. Especially when we face better offenses. The same with our offense, I like it more but I don't think it's good enough to give away possessions like that. This team needs to learn to keep the pedal to the medal and it starts with the coaching staff. If you watch a team and coach like the Pats, they don't let up. That's where this staff and team need to be mentally. 

    Anyone want to recap the offseason for me?

    I haven't really been around the last 2 months and I did see I made a post last month that was a little hazy. I'm not throwing a pity party or anything like that but I wanted to share because I didn't know if I would ever be back to do doing the little things in life like this. Almost a couple of months ago now, I really started to notice I was "losing time". I won't get into a lot of specifics, but some things happened and I am pretty much diagnosed with schizophrenia. There were some symptoms before that I just thought were kind of strange things that were happening, it's hard to explain it. But even worse, I don't know what happened during those times and whatever I did, I emptied out almost all of my savings. I'm in my 30's and basically have to start out financially where I was in my early 20's. All of this happened in a really short span after I had been incredibly blessed health-wise my entire life, and yeah, I thought of doing the worst. I thought about it real hard. 

     

    But I got some fight left in me. I feel better right now and medication seems to be working. I'm going to be OK. I may not ever have the life I had worked for and was driving towards, but I'll be OK. I'll be back at work soon and I'll start over. We can only do what we can do, right?

     

    I guess the reason I wanted to share was I've really learned to be grateful for every moment and everything I do have. So I am grateful for this community, many of whom I've debated with. It wasn't too long ago that  I also wanted to say I hope people don't take all of this stuff too seriously. It seems absolutely crazy now that just a few months ago I was actually mad about things I saw in a game. Or the Patriots winning. 

     

    At the end of the day, it's cool as ***** that we have a great community and I can walk into a Bills bar anywhere and instantly be family. And maybe one day we can actually win to make it a little sweeter. 

     

    With that, does anyone feel like going over some of the offseason highlights? I did see some of the players we signed and it looks like the O-line should be better, but I don't know most of the guys outside of Morse.
