  1. You usually do...folks are trying to hate on Josh too hard. He makes some mistakes, but he is not checking out of many plays.
  2. You had an all-pro safety peal off the man he was covering to undercut a route another db was trailing. Folks should recognize a great defensive play when they see one, but not everyone does.
  3. Bye coming at the right time. A lot of banged up Bills now.
  4. Daboll reminds me of Allen trying to do too much at times, but he catches himself too I think. Lean on your run, take time off the clock, simplify things for your patchwork o-line, and the formula works. Helps that Gore was awesome! And in fairness, great play call by Daboll on the naked boot and Allen staying in bound to seal it.
  5. We thank Vrable for continuing to use him on 4th downs. Tough loss, you folks have a good defense.
  6. I was looking and could not even see any of the ball the way he had that wrapped up..
  7. See the butterfly kicked Daboll in the head this series.
  8. You run running plays there and you wait for 0 on the play clock each play. That is the basics. Daboll knows better, or should.
  9. Vrable is going to have some splaining to do....like he thinks he can will his kicker to be better. That is a 4th down where you go for it.
  10. Should not be enough to overturn, but Riverton back in NY shaking his random magic 8 ball....
  11. That's the second time that guy false started...the other time they called it on Murphy during the goal line stand. There has been some serious slant changing this game. Buffalo 1st downs called back, moving TN closer to the goal line instead of back 5 yards. This is the stuff that baffles me and those announcing the game.
  12. Never get those idiotic ref holding calls on interior linemen. Pocket the flag. The fix is in.
  13. Yeldon might have had a shot at him instead of running past a defender coming clean as an outlet receiver.
  14. Awesome! Definitely feeling a bit more like home out here, and feeling better about this move. Got to roll as the wife is giving me the stink-eye. We are hosting a girl that my daughter befriended at the school and her parents want to give us the sniff-test. I can respect that, but our place needs some TLC - we are only quasi-unpacked....just looks like most of our boxes exploded where they landed.
  15. Not too far away. The wife found us a home in Newport, but where is this mecca in Portland? I'll get out there especially for the playoffs that we WILL be in this year.
  16. Hopefully, just a feel-good story to share with you all. Me and the fam recently moved out to Oregon (the wife's new job and my work let me do my thing from remote office). Was dreading the hassle of going to the DMV, but I have been driving the used Ford I bought before my road trip out here for the past month now with no plates and a flimsy piece of paper in the back window that I am sure expired a while ago.. Any way, stopped over at their DMV and got to talking to an older clerk about the weather and he said it was nothing like where he grew up. So I asked him where, and he said you've never heard of it, it's a tiny town off the Erie canal in WNY called Middleport. My jaw dropped, and so did his when I told him that I went to elementary school at Royalton-Hartland, the school that he apparently graduated from. The odds of that happening... After that, Morris and I were jawing away like long-lost cousins, talking about our Bills and Sabres and the rest of the tellers took up the slack and seemed to be getting a kick out of the whole thing. What a small world. I left thinking about how the Bills mafia is everywhere while humming "I've got friends in low places". Suffice to say that was the easiest DMV visit I have ever had. I left the building with a new set of plates, with fresh set of tabs, and registration on the way:)
  17. Yep. When you have a great defense and the strength of your offensive line is opening holes for the run, when you have three TE's and a full back that excel at run blocking there is no reason not to play to your strengths. Josh will learn at the pace he learns, no reason to have him drink from the fire hose for this team to win games. Last time I checked it was L's and W's that counted, not style points.
