  1. A lot of great memories there for me also. Thanks for posting.

    My Dad and I attended many, many games at the old Rockpile including the two AFL Championship games. We finally had season tickets for the last few years at the old stadium, but then my Dad got transferred to Rochester. A couple years after that I graduated from HS and was off to college. We’d make it to occasional games at Rich stadium, but to me there was nothing like those games in the 60’s!

    Every time I watch the movie “The Natural” and see the people walking up and down those ramps at the old War Memorial stadium it always stirs up the memories.

    I think I see another Championship Game coming soon. Go Bills!

    This is the bigger story and will be until the end of the season....Brady v Bilicheat....it always will be....im just so very happy to see the cheats at 2-5.....oh yeah and seeing Superman Cam crying on the bench.....


    Definitely loved seeing Cam sitting there crying after the fumble. During that last carry he was probably too concerned about what stupid TD celebration he was going to perform instead of making sure he was carrying the ball in the correct hand and securing the ball. Could also have been that imaginary hand sanitizer he was using after his first TD made his hands too slippery to hang onto the ball, lol!

  3. Yeah, never count the Pats or BellyBoy out, but right now they look like only a shell of their former self. The defense starting the season shorthand’s did and Brady not there are key factors, but they still have BB. I’m sure he will bring a game plan to try to keep this game close. We need to counter that.

    Running the ball and stopping the run will be the keys to this game. No doubt they will try to control the ball with the run and keep Cam’s pass attempts to a minimum. The Bills need to defense the run like they did early in the season. On offense the bills need to pound the rock themselves. This Pats team can be run on. Start early and don’t let up. Then the play action pass game can take over.

    Go Bills!

  4. Excellent write-up as usual. Couldn’t agree more with most of your points.

    On offense the passing game is doing fine and can be left alone for the most part except for game by game planning due to defensive tendencies of the opponent. The running game is where they need to evolve more like you said. A lot more tinkering can made here and for gosh sakes they need to stop abandoning the run so frequently. The line play is improving ever so gradually and hopefully adding Feleciano soon should be a big boost. From what I saw yesterday in that late game the Bills should be able to run the ball rather successfully against the Pats especially to the outside.

    Defensively there were signs yesterday to have hope things are pointing up especially in the second half. They definitely need to bring extra pressure and blitz more. This should be effective against the Pats now that Brady isn’t back there to pick the secondary and linebackers apart when they do. Just can’t let Newton go running the ball too much. That rookie Dane Jackson seemed to show a lot of promise yesterday. He could be a diamond in the rough and hopefully a great find for a 7th rounder.

    Like you said beat the Pats next week, hopefully decisively and go 6-2 in total control of the division, then go from there.

    Go Bills!

    Based on responses, people seem to think Seattle is a road game.  They are coming to Buffalo this year.

     


    You are correct, my mistake. With this correction I thought about saying definitely 4-0, but the Seahawks look like they will have Antonio Brown in their lineup for this game so I’ll stay at 3-1. With our lack of pass rush I don’t think our secondary can hold up against that WR Arsenal.

    Probably could have used a little help from Brown when he threw a perfect ball to him for a first down and watched it bounce off his face mask on 3rd down to force a punt on the first drive.

    Absolutely, no question. Trouble is JA puts all that on himself. He is the leader out there and the buck stops with him.

    And the dime throw under duress to Diggs in the back of the endzone Diggs just flat out dropped. 

    Again, absolutely agree.

  7. Great analysis. Yeah, it just seemed like Allen had trouble shaking the funk from that first series. Just didn’t look like himself in the huddle or on the bench between possessions. Usually on the bench he is all business looking at the videos or printouts and attentively listening to the coach. Last night when he was shown on the bench he seemed to just have his head down, not looking at anything in particular and not appearing interested in what the coach was telling him. Just my opinion, but seemed like he was beating himself up too much which was just compounding the problems on the field.

    Looked like maybe we saw more of the September Josh on that 4th quarter TD drive. Too bad they didn’t get one more possession before the Chiefs put the score out of reach. Would like to have seen which #17 took the field then.
