  1. If I never hear Sharpe or these other tools on the NFL Network again, it will be too soon. Man, they are dreadful.

    They are awful. I'm just tuning in to the thread so don't know if it was already mentioned, but once they said about us:

    "this offense is hitting on all seven cylinders" :w00t:

     

    Bet none of those guys ever opened a hood huh?

  2. Maybe it seems we get the "damn this schedule looks tough" crowd every year, but this really does look tough. I'll be surprised if it's not in the top 5 toughest (I know, I know, based on last year teams strengths).

     

    All I know is - we better beat New England at least once. If we can't do that, we're toast. Get er done!

  3. Bills fan now living in a state somewhere down south. I use Raelity on the Sabres board - a twist on Rael from Genesis Lamb Lies Down on Broadway, and like that name better. Hate to change names, here though. At the rate I post I ought to work off my rookie label in just a few more years.

     

    Promo - I too was a Rocketship 7 fan. I was only 5 or so back then. I for sure remember Dave Thomas and Promo the Robot. I vaguely recall some kind of talking hand puppet coming out of the door in the rocket. Anyone else recall that and remember a name?

  4. Does anyone else wonder why the hell the Bills are simultaneously badmouthing Willis AND shopping him for a trade? Doesn't it make sense to keep your mouth shut about the guy until he's gone?

    There is another thread just started on this too. It almost seems like the leaks on his "bad habits" and being shopped for a trade are too close together to be coincidence. Are the Bills trying to induce low value trade offers, so Willis and his agent become convinced they really are best off shutting up and having Willis run his a.. off next year for the Bills, to increase his value? Or is it remotely possible that someone who wants Willis on the cheap starts up negative rumours in an attempt to lower the stakes?

     

    As said by another, this smells fishy (not trying to implicate Miami)

  5. The Colts' line is one first round pick a decade ago and a bunch of late picks and street free agents. Is that what you propose we do?

    I can't answer how you get there, but I am always amazed at how well the Colts O-line plays. I wish ours could be that good!

  6. All game long, he went on and on about the Chargers and how great they were. Just before the Pats got the game tying touchdown he was still talking about how the Chargers defense had been downplayed for years, only getting respect this year, then saying all you have to do is watch them now and you can see that athleticism and determination. Next play - touchdown throw for Brady.

     

    I just wish announcers could stay non-biased. After awhile I was hoping for N. England to take the lead just to get him to stop gushing about the Chargers. Jackaxe...

  7. I think the most crucial bone headed call for the Bolts was in the first half, 4th and 11 from the 32ish, and instead of attempting the field goal, they go for it. I yelled out FOOLS!! Right then I hoped they would lose by 3 or less so that would haunt them. That was not the game, by any means, but it ended up being HUGE.

  8. We almost beat San Diego, I expect the Pats to win this one.

    We almost beat New England too, so I'm not sure how that measuring stick works...

     

    Still, I'm picking the Patriots. Schottenheimer's brain gets all screwed up during playoff games, and the pressure of going up against Bill and the perennially good Pats will be too much for him.

  9. Not making excuses, I thought it was a low class move.

     

    But couldn't help wondering what was going thru his head at the time!??

     

    Maybe something like, "Now I've got to go do the BS man-love w Mangini thing, god I hate doing this, get the f out of my way a..hole, ..."

     

    Hard to imagine he was desperate to get to Mangini out of true concern for the guy...

  10. He was 1/2 yard short. But what got me is the announcers never even acknowledged that there was a first down possibility on the play. He'd have had it if the Seahawk hadn't triped him from behind.

     

    There was no fumble. Seattle got the ball back on the 1 1/2 yard line.

    I was also surprised that both announcers, and the article today in USA today, did not mention that he had a first down possibility at the one yard line. In the paper they said a couple of times that he fell just short of making it in for the touchdown. He was way closer to getting the first (which probably would have sealed the game what with ability to run the clock down), but nobody mentioned it. Go figure.

  11. which brings me back to the play just before the muffed kick.

     

    The on-field call was first down. the replay booth over-ruled. To me the replay was inconclusive from every angle on whether Dallas made the first down or not.

     

    Just what did the replay booth see that would over-rule the on-field call?

    I though there had to be irefutable eveidence to overturn an on-field officials decision. :rolleyes:

    I saw one angle that was totally conclusive. From the sideline, looking straight across the field, you could clearly see the 1 yard line hash marks, and also clearly see that the ball never progressed all that close to that, which is what was needed for a first down. I was wondering why no one pointed that out, to me it was obviously at least 1 to 1.5 ft short, which is where they eventually spotted it.
