The deer in the headlights look - I've seen it before. Was it the Browns last year in a night game? It was painful to watch, so incredibly tentative/afraid, I felt sorry for him, but more sorry for the fans who had high expectations that night.
Is he toast?

Some say he's been sniffing around, but I think this dog's had his day.
-
Exactly.
If I go into Walmart to purchase a bucket and the only one that's on the shelf is full of feces then it's the best left.
Thanks for that - I needed a laugh
-
great point...keeping him would be good and the o line is very important, especially in nov/dec. BUt is he worth 11 mil? Im not sure about that.
It's thinking like that has prevented us from having a solid O'line since the early 90's. We can never believe anyone is worth THAT much, so we keep paying less than great salaries, and getting less than great results. At a certain point you've got to make some gambles.

They had the President of VH1 on the Shredd & Ragan Show Podcast. He is from Buffalo, & is a HUGE Bills fan. The TO show will go on
If that's so I guess all those wondering what TO's like off the field and whether he's a big partier or not will get their answers (and then some).
Dat-dat-datta-datta-dat-dat-datta... come on into the big tent ladies and gentlemen, the circus is about to begin!

So, I wonder what happens with this reality show now? Since he's in a smaller market now, what are the odds it gets cancelled? Or maybe they track all the high drama involved in his move to Buffalo?

I think the Cards bubble gets burst tonight. They have not played a team of Pittsburgh's caliber yet in the playoffs. Their luck runs out tonight.

I disagree. The biggest determiner of how often a team will or will not get points on any given drive is their average drive start. The Bills led the NFL in average drive start by over 2 yards over second place New England because of their special teams. It cannot be overstated how important this is. Really, how much of an impact is the 5th linebacker going to have on any given team? The guy is there to play special teams, even if he sucks at them, he is gonna be on the special teams regardless. Might as well have a guy that is actually good at it versus a guy that just sucks...
Really, average drive start is incredibly important. I mean we led the NFL, and it really has paid off for us in the Win Loss column.
I must say it is nice to have something on the team to be proud of - but I'd much rather have a seriously stout defense and offensive line...
-
I like rooting for the underdog. As a Bills fan, that's a neccessity I guess. This year I'll pick the Ravens. Eagles and Steelers will be favored, and I just can't get too excited about the Cardinals.
Why not? Most of their fans are bandwagon fans. When they struggled they weren't coming close to filling their stadium. And speaking of stadiums, their new domed stadium is for wimps. I lived in Phoenix for 5 years, working outside. If Buffalo and Pittsburgh teams (and fans) can weather the cold, they ought to be able to handle the heat (remember, it's a dry heat).
Go Ravens! Tough as nails defense, solid rookie QB. Sound running game. It all makes me jealous (except the Willis part).

You realize 3 of the 4 teams left have the top 3 statistically ranked defenses?
Pitt #1 d. Baltimore #2 and Philly # 3. There's nothing average about the defenses of these teams. It stands to reason the best way to build a winning team is to build your defense and get by with an average offense predicated on a strong running game, and game management.
And after this weekend, there will be nothing left but teams with defenses ranked in the top 3.
I agree wholeheartedly, if you want a better than average ability to make the playoffs (and win once in them), you need a superior defense. One with at least a couple top notch playmakers who can lead. One that has attitude, that punishes opposing teams. Something severely lacking w the Bills. We came closest of late w the Wade Philips - Ted Cottrell teams. long gone...

It's hard for me to feel "good" about the Patriots fate. I'd give anything to be in their shoes right now. Let's see, would I rather be 7-9 for the year, 0 fer 6 against the East, w a team in a death spiral for the last 10 games, and talks of blowing it all up again? Or be a team w loads of talent and a great coaching staff who got better as the year progressed and ended a sliver away from the playoffs at 11-5, even though their starting QB went down early? Hmmm, that's a tough one.
Taking satisfaction in the Patriots not making the playoffs is like being glad that your Wall Street broker only got a 2 million dollar bonus this year (instead of their usual 10 mil), while your 401K took a 40% ytd raping and is still heading south. Yeaahhh I'm so happy!!!
-
There's always next year.
Another year comes and goes, same refrain.
-
I wonder...
Was Ralph's mind already made up about Dick prior to this game?,
or,
was he going to make up his mind based on whether we get SWEPT not only by N England (again), but also by the whole freaking AFC East?
-
What noone is also saying is whether there were stipulations in the contract he signeed.
Yeah, I heard one clause was that we had to beat New England at least once or he's gone! No wonder he's worried!
-
I am depressed on what is happening with the team....
but
i get even more depressed when I see people wishing the bills owner dead......god some people
There's some sick bastards out there. Sad to see some that call themselves Bills fans coming up w this stuff.
-
This from the Buffalo News: What is Ralph saying about his coaches contract?!?:
"Shock, exasperation and anger were the prevailing emotions for the Bills afterward.
Bills owner Ralph C. Wilson Jr. could only shake his head in disbelief after leaving the locker room.
Had he seen anything like it? "Never," he said.
Wilson tried to crack a half-hearted joke, saying, "I think I should get back into the insurance business."
But don't get the wrong impression. Wilson wasn't in a joking mood. Asked again to comment on the much-reported contract extension for coach Dick Jauron, Wilson said only:
"Did you see that fumble? It was terrible wasn't it?"
-
Let's say those "2 of 3" wins you're talking about come over the Jets and the Broncos. Is the 8-8 team this year then an "improvement" over the 9-7 team last year? Hell no! We would have a 1-5 record against the AFC East. I don't care who "else" you beat, to improve you have to get the AFC East record improved, otherwise we are falling back instead of making progress where it counts.
Outside of our dismal play in the East, this season would still be more disappointing. Last year had a poor start but increasing wins as the season progressed which at least made it somewhat encouraging. With this years amazing start and massive mid season swoon, even a couple late wins will not be enough to make it seem better than last year. Expectations got much higher early in the year, and were more painfully thrashed!

trent's concussion in arizona.
I agree, prior to that the Bills were on a roll. They seemed to lose their rhythm and identity thereafter, despite a couple more wins.
-
What's sickening to me is that here we are again. Running over the same old ground. Wade Phillips, Gregg Johnson, Mike Malarkey, Dick Jauron, ...fill in the blank. Hire. Follow with 2 to 3 years of "rebuilding", gotta give them a chance, there are some bright spots, etc., then after dismal failure, fire. Rinse, repeat. History of the Bills since Levy.
Wow, this is fun...
-
only NOW it's official?
It's official when you get SWEPT by the f'ng Dolphins, a team that was supposedly as low as a team can get at the end of last season. It totally sucks getting beat twice by them. I feel as low as I can ever recall in my 32 years of being a Bills fan - and that's saying something. I think I'd feel better if we were 0-13. From 5-1 to THIS? Sickening dissapointment does not begin to describe it.
-
uh, how's that working out for you?
-
What's wrong w Schottenheimer?
Well, I guess I'll answer my own question. I just saw he is 73. A TAD old...
-
What's wrong w Schottenheimer? I mean, he had the Chargers at 14-2 and got fired (for not winning in the playoffs). I don't know about you guys but at this point, if we had a HC that took our team to the playoffs a few years in a row, that would be one hell of an improvement.
I only WISH we could be bemoaning our inability to win deep into the playoffs, instead of our ability to win period. I think the "Marty can't win in the playoffs" thing could be overcome. And wouldn't that be cool, for Marty and the Bills to get the "can't win the big one" monkey off their backs together. Laugh all you want but some tough, ball control Marty ball might be just the ticket.

This farce of a season has a lot of people thinking that way.
It's pretty darn easy to envision 6-10, w the games we have coming up. From 5-1 to 6-10, let's see that'll make our record over the last 10 weeks of the season 1-9. Friggin shameful - right up there with the worst Bills teams in history. So much for building a contender, instead we're nosediving big time.
Edwards needs to be benched...

My concern is twofold:
1) For the offense to be successful with TO, Trent will need to develop confidence in throwing the long ball. He shows very little of that confidence/ability yet, way too many check-down, dump off passes.
2) If above does not work, just how cool do you think TO is going to be with adapting by running short routes across the middle - where he is likely to take beatings?
