Are you saying that dealing for Bledsoe in 2002 was a bad move??? I don't think so.

And we were so friggin spoiled by the early 90s that we thought that was terrible for a head coach.

No way, not against our D at home. My prediction is the cards will not get more than a FG and 175 yards of total offense against our D. If the O doesn't turn it over, then it will be Bills 20, Cards 3. If the O plays like it did vs. Baltimore, it will be Cards 10, Bills 6, winning margain will be an INT returned for a TD. But c'mon give our D some props.

Bills 20 Cards 3

We would have drafted QB in the 1st this year if we had the pick. The fair way to judge the trade, three years from now, is whether JP is better than any available QB that we could have gotten with the pick we sent Dallas. If the answer is yes and JP outperforms the QBs that were available in our spot from this year's draft, then the trade was a good one. If not, then the trade was bad.

Dude, delete this thread, NOW!! No spoilers for this, please!!

Thank you. Bledsoe only really cost us the Baltimore game. However, the Oak and Jax games were there for the taking. Same with the Jets. I was the biggest Bledsoe supporter. I defended Bledsoe against Spiked and others all year. Even my hero , the great Jim Kelly had 4 int games. Hey "Interceptions are part of football," he used to say. Then he'd go out and throw 4 TDs the next week and we'd forget all about the 4 INT game. The problem here is that Bledsoe has not made a game winning play for the Bills since 2002. Have we won games since then....sure. But the team either won because Bledsoe didn't screw up or in spite of him. The Oakland game this year...C'mon Drew make a play, lead your team to victory. No way, meekly going down and offering up excuses. Get some passion, some fire in the belly. The Dallas and Houston games in 2003, are perfect examples of games that were there for the taking if only the leader of the team could step up and make a play. It never happened. But it was after the Baltimore game and even his "angry" defense of his play that really burned me up. If he would have walked into the Baltimore press conference and flipped over the table, said I can't take this anymore, I promise all the fans we're gonna win next week and I'm going to play the friggin game of my life, I would have believed in him. But he plays like he did and apologizes to the Bills fans because he's still the QB???? Then he deflects blame to others around him. Give me a friggin break. You're the leader, STEP THE FUG UP!!!!

Oh stop it. Moulds is the best player on the team and one of the few idiots over there who actually gets it. I don't think its a coincidence that he is one of the only players left from the pre-TD era either.

Back when we had real players, a real coaching staff, a real front office, real uniforms.... :I starred in Brokeback Mountain: TD

I don't see it either. I thought the same way you did, cept I thought we'd beat Baltiomore, lose to the Hawks and snap the Patsies streak. Now I'm just down in the dumps and even winning vs. Zona ain't gonna change that.

Playoffs?? Paste classic Jim Mora rant here.

You guys are saying get a quality G or C, but I think that with MW & Villareal manning the G slots and Teague/Tucker at C, we'll be OK there. Jennings is gone, someone will pay him the big $$, hopefully, not us. That would mean we are short on T's, with only Price. We would need to draft a T and maybe even sign one that can stay healthy. Perhaps... LT - Munoz LG - MW C - Tucker/Teague RG - Villarial RT - Price or Free Agent

It would increase our Crown Royal consumption.

OK, here's what you do... If you want to see the game this year you have a couple of choices. The Rams on Nov 21, seems to be the best one, as the last 2 home games will be against Cleveland and Pittsburgh and there will be a lot of out-of-towns fans. Tickets may be difficult to come by. You will be able to scalp tickets outside of the stadium for close to face value. Try to fly to BUF from Paris. If thats too $$$, fly to JFK in NYC and then you can either fly JetBlue to Buffalo pretty cheap (and the airline is right at JFK) or take a train or drive up to Buffalo. Hotels...The best thing to do would be to stay at the Downtown Hyatt. Its two blocks from Chippewa Street, Buffalo's downtown party district, where you can get food and beers. The rooms are about $100 - $150 a nite. You will need a rental car. You can get one when you get to the Buffalo airport or at JFK. Hope this helps.

Well, you know he's got good genes. Do you really think he'll slip that far? Then maybe... LT - Munoz LG - MW C - ? or Ross Tucker or Teague RG - Villareal RT - Price or ?

I hope not. I want them undefeated when we play them.

Me too. I defended Bledsoe against Spiked and others all year. But what I saw in that game made me sick. Its not just one game though. At Oakland this year...C'mon Drew make a play, lead your team to victory. No way, meekly going down and offering up excuses. Get some passion, some fire in the belly. If he would have walked into the Baltimore press conference and flipped over the table, said I can't take this anymore, I promise all the fans we're gonna win next week and I'm going to play the friggin game of my life, I would have believed in him. But he plays like he did and apologizes to the Bills fans because he's still the QB???? Give me a friggin break.

Simple analysis, Texas player vs. Miami player. Which do you take?? Well, outside of Priest Holmes, no Texas player as overachieved anything in the NFL in ten years. In fact, most have underachieved. Now , not saying every Cane is great but generally they have lived up to the hype. Miami produces good pros. Texas does not.

I didn't think it was cookie cutter, but maybe my frame of reference is not what yours is. I've only been to NFL games at 9 stadiums, some of which are gone. (Meadowlands, Foxboro, new Foxboro, Pro Player, Orange Bowl, 3 Rivers, Riverfront, Ralph and now Baltimore). I'll give you that the crowd sucked, but I was commenting only on the stadium, itself. Never said it was a great NFL experience, just that I thought the stadium was nice. One of the biggest problems was ticket prices. Very expensive face value. Even more expensive than the Meadowlands, which actually suprised me.

If the throwback is circa 1973, I'll be the first to buy a McGahee!!

I couldn't disagree more. I thought the stadium was beautiful. Real classy with the brick and the columned scoreboards. The acoustics were great. I liked the "Protect This House" bit, and thought it would be great for us to come up with something like that. The only real weakness was the fans, but c'mon they've only had a team for 6 years. That and they played "Shout" after scoring, an unmodified version. They need to come up with something original. Overall - B+ Stadium - A- Sightlines - A Fan Enthusiasm - C+ Tailgating - B-

Learn what??? How to throw Ints, put all the blame on everyone else and not make a single fuggin play in the football game??? Great.

Being at the game & seeing the giant replay on the Jumbo tron, I think the refs got the call right. As to Bledsoe walking off...,what do you expect.

Thats a shame. Both my wife and I were at the game and fully decked out in Bills stuff (Me Kelly jersey & baseball cap, her Bills sweatshirt and hat) and outside of a little good natured, back-and-forth ribbing, found no problems with the Baltimore fans. Where were you sitting? We were in Section 152.
