Da webster guy

All I will say to those doom and gloomers that refused to attend the game because we didn't win enough games this year, my family and I all agreed it was one of the best experiences we've ever had together. From the second we pulled the RV into Hammers Lot as the very first flakes started to fly until we got back to Rochester that evening. Many thanks to the football gods for reinforcing the fact that being a true fan and supporting your team optimistically is always a far better way to live than the alternative. What a memory.

Well said. The Ragman isn't a coverage or sideline to sideline guy. He would be great as a specialist on short yardage stuff though, he can shed blockers well and plays big in the trenches. He was in the perfect spot at Bama, where he won SEC defensive player of the year behind a great line with slower running backs than what we have in the NFL.

Along with the other 20+ teams that need a solid qb

Pats lost by 7 but I see your point. The thing is they really didnt need this win because if they beat Pitt next week then both teams have 3 losses and NE would have the tiebreaker, if they won this game they'd still have to beat Pitt in order to have homefield throughout. Pats looked pretty weak, the Fins are an average team but Brady really looked off. No matter what HE says about playing at a high level for several more years, he's starting to slip a little bit. Finally.....

Yes. MUCH better draft pick if Chargers win division, then KC pick moves up from the mid 20's to the mid teens. Huge difference that will likely impact our future team.

Still two drafts away from Brady and Ben being done, and this team making a championship run. We got 4 good players in this draft, two of them stars-TreD and now Dawkins looking awesome. Rico will be gone next year, and we're bringing in a lot more young talent. Meanwhile, give me Peterman Sunday please, we need some more data on this kid.

Never said i'm a better fan than you, only different. I enjoy games even if we aren't going to the post season, and you said wins and losses is all that matters to you. I think thats sad, you obviously think differently. There's no right or wrong mate, it's just a different outlook I guess. I'm watching my son put together his color rush red stuff for the game, he's so excited for the game. Deep down we all know this isn't a championship team but it doesn't have to be in order to have fun.

Just make sure they load up on warm gear, they'll be fine. Also remember the key to staying warm is being out of the wind, so pay attention to where it's blowing and try to park on the lee side of a van or RV, maybe even trees or a house if you park on a private lot. Remember everyone hates to be cold, but there is no bad weather just bad gear. Dress em up warmly and they'll love it. Stadium blankets are key inside.

Welcome to the HammersLot, make sure you find the post on the Colts game and get your spot reserved. It's in a great spot and they keep things under control. You'll appreciate the stuff you can't do in Canada like actually drink a beer in public, and you'll love the camraderie too. Lots of bathroom facilities there, and bring your prime minister he seems like a cool guy. Have fun!

So you're a fair weather fan. There's a place for you guys in the world of sports, i'm just on another level than you, and luckily so are tons of other die hard Bills fans. I've noticed that sports and online forums can bring out the pessimist and cynic in the worst way, especially when they're combined.

Yeah I don't care about how much the players make, I love H.S. and college ball too. We just appreciate watching the actual game, enjoying the pro's playing the best game in the world. Don't care for hockey or most other sports, just a football junkie. So when I hear people say they don't care about games because our record (or team) isn't good enough to get into in the post season, I find it funny because the games can still be awesome in December anyway. We're going to have a blast Sunday win or lose. Sorry for those of you who can't stomach it, not judging you-- it's just kinda sad to see fans cut the season short. I feel fortunate that I'm not in the "wins and losses is all that counts" club. With 32 teams in the league, the averages say you'll end the season disappointed 31 out of every 32 years. That's a lot of pain for something that's supposed to be fun. .

speed receivers are almost always a bad idea. Can't believe Ross went so high. All three of the top receivers had major injuries this season so it's tough to evaluate, but Corey has played the most and he's had some tremendous catches. So far just showing off his hands and sideline awareness but he's got Andre Reed YAC ability too. He will be elite. .

We are coming in from Rochester in the RV for our first game of the year. Eight of us. I don't give a crap about the future, we're all ready to go with our red on red, lots of food, drink and looking forward to beating up the Dolts. Our view is too many people worry about wins and losses and the enjoyment of watching the game of football itself can get overlooked. Remember, if you dress properly you're warmer than the guy on the couch. Looking forward to the first Peterman to Reilly TD baby!!!!!!!!!!!!

Draft talk during the season is bad luck. This is what led to wide right, homerun throwback, Robert Woods departure, Dennison getting hired, and Gronk committing a felony after the whistle. At this point just keep rooting against KC, who might actually be giving us a higher draft pick than our own this spring.

Depends who starts, but I think this is a perfect game for Peterman. A lot of 2 TE sets to get the running game rolling get into a passing rhythm. Our O line played a pretty good game last week. I had this game circled for Peterman since the beginning of the year, I pray they give the kid a taste of home field advantage and a shot at redemption.

I rewatched the offensive series in the Pats game. The kid had flashes early this season, but he's really settled into that LT spot. Did anyone notice how far downfield he was throwing his guys on some of those run plays? That's freakish strength. He’s come on strong the past four weeks, surrendering just nine pressures over his last four games while looking nasty in the run game. He ended the day with just one hit and two hurries allowed. This kid is already very good, can't wait until the experience starts kicking in. So far, Tredavious, Zay, Milano and Dawkins all look like they were good picks.

We are coming in from Rochester with the RV. Left Hammer a message hoping to get that spot next to the office building. We need power !!! Thanks! Tim 585-734-1255

We really aren't good at stopping the run anymore, I think it's silly to think we could win a playoff game on the road. With that in mind, I'd like to see Peterman get the start. We couldn't protect the poor guy in San Diego and I think he deserves a legit start where he has more than 2 seconds to execute. He had two stupid INT's, the other 3 either weren't his fault at all or were a result of the right side of our line being awful. I say give the kid the ball and let him sling it. We should be good enough at home against Indy to handle some offensive miscues, and he might just light it up. In other news, don't forget its COLOR RUSH so everyone get your red on! Dusting off my Santa suit as we speak.....

Gotta draft receivers built like Baldwin, Zay, Woods, Steve Smith etc. The small burners and the tall guys can't take the hits like the solid 6 foot 205lb type guys. The vast majority of our picks next year will be defense though. If you don't have a great run D you're screwed.

If Mike Evans gets a game for simply pushing a guy after the whistle, this should be at least 3 games for Gronkowski. Intentionally concussing a guy 5 seconds after the whistle who is on the ground and can't see it coming? McD should have gone ballistic and got thrown out himself. Stand up for your players, don't say "Gronk's a better player than that" when he just showed you what kind of player he really is on his 4th penalty of the game, the nastiest foul i have ever seen in 30 years.

Niners and Indy?

He's got the New England disease. You turn into a whiny, entitled hothead. Happened to Edelman, Brady, heck even Kraft is a smug jerk, and now Gronk is trying to intentionally hurt players after the whistle. He lost all respect from every single fan in the hometown he grew up in, and rightfully so.

I agree with you that we should give McD some rookie mistake patience, but so far I would grade him as an excellent team leader and motivator, and a poor game manager. We've seen things like 10 men on the defense against Atlanta on a critical play, and quite a few time management/situational struggles. I like him a lot, and he's the kind of guy that will learn and improve, but he's definitely a rookie HC and I don't think Dennison is doing him any favors.

It was a great decision whoever made it, pulled us up several spots in the draft order and allowed the KC trade down to happen. I love when management can see past the next game in front of them and has the balls to make decisions that will actually benefit us down the road vs a meaningless win to make fans feel good for a few hours on a Sunday. Play Peterman again this year if we are out of playoffs!

Thats some good work by the OP. I love posts with images. Switching out Worthy for Coleman was one of those things that you'd think would have happened earlier as soon as Dareus was let go, instead of taking two more games of awful run defense to get Coleman up and running. Glad we have him, and I'm sure the rest of the defense is too.
