  1. Kelsay did absolutely nail him in the middle of his back with the crown of his helmet just after he threw on one play. After they showed that on a replay I thought we might see a fine for Kelsay. Then again, maybe not because he doesn't have a reputation....

  2. Hasn't Henry pretty well always been a "slow starter" who really didn't get his legs under him (cringe, pardon the unintended pun) until a few carries?

    I agree. Henry's ran about how he always has. He typically would start to look good as soon as everyone else started getting tired, and seemed to get pumped up after giving and receiving some hits. He's not as smooth or elusive as WM, but his YPC is about the same I'd bet (haven't looked in a month or two).
  3. can someone post Bledsoe's OVERALL numbers since he's been here. It's too painful for me to do it.  Afterall, we can't judge him on 1 game (or two), now can we?

    Sorry the formatting sucks....

    Overall, he's playing about the same as he always has (except his phenom 2002 start).

  4. I completely agree on all counts, DC Tom, and on many of your points, ICE.

     

    I think Losman is not ready yet, and the decision to put him in last week and not this week has to be for some less-than-obvious reason (the obvious normal reasons don't add up). Maybe they wanted to humble Losman, or maybe quiet the expected calls for Bledsoe's head after the game he "threw."

     

    The only two straight-up explanations I can think of are 1) that the coaches actually thought Losman was ready last week, and changed their minds after they saw how poorly he performed or 2) MM is the type of coach that will only pull a QB if they are not performing well or are hurt (meaning putting JP in was more about DB than JPL).

     

    Bledsoe played quite well today, as did his supporting cast. He always seems to do his best when challenged for his job....

  5. Nfl.com has an error page coming up.

    I know there are bills fans that have the stats.

    It comes up fine for me. Do you havea private connection to the internet, or are you somewhere like school that might have it blocked? I'm glad there's a reason you need help w stats.

  6. Me too! It's fun to watch our run defense, especially in short yardage situations. We've let team walk all over converting 3rd aand long passes, but the run D has been very strong almost every game.

     

    I really hope we re-sign Pat. While he doesn't flsh the same explosiveness as Sam, he's a constant force in the middle and moves very well for a big guy.

  7. self-defense

    n. the use of reasonable force to protect oneself or members of the family from bodily harm from the attack of an aggressor, if the defender has reason to believe he/she/they is/are in danger. Self-defense is a common defense by a person accused of assault, battery or homicide. The force used in self-defense may be sufficient for protection from apparent harm (not just an empty verbal threat) or to halt any danger from attack, but cannot be an excuse to continue the attack or use excessive force. Examples: an unarmed man punches Allen Alibi, who hits the attacker with a baseball bat. That is legitimate self-defense, but Alibi cannot chase after the attacker and shoot him or beat him senseless. If the attacker has a gun or a butcher knife and is verbally threatening, Alibi is probably warranted in shooting him. Basically, appropriate self-defense is judged on all the circumstances. Reasonable force can also be used to protect property from theft or destruction. Self-defense cannot include killing or great bodily harm to defend property, unless personal danger is also involved, as is the case in most burglaries, muggings or vandalism.

    I'm actually suprised this definition of selfdefense doesn't clarify the situation better. In a law class I took (I'm not a lawyer) I remember the prof stressing that self defense has to be a lesser reaction in almost every case, and would be thrown out if another option was available (such as walking away).

  8. It's true, we're only 3 games out of the playoffs (if we win a tiebreaker) with 8 remaining....

     

    I think it is as interesting to note that there are only 3 teams that have won their last 3 games or more (GB, SD, Pitt). and 2 that have lost more than the last 2 in a row (Carolina, SF). Now that's parity.

  9. I too think it will be very interesting to see if they activate Peters and/or McFarland.

     

    Has anyone been counting how many times McFarland's been active? I've been thinking he and Ritzmann are two candidates for being snuck onto the PS next year if they are still developing, instead of any draftees that will draw more attention.

     

    For all his amazing size, speed, and hype, Peters looked pretty horrible in preseason. I hope he was just an untrained talent that can contribute in the next year or two once he gets some proper coaching. Maybe just teach him 3 or 4 different plays??

  10. Most of us are #3 . Only 10 % ? Disagree. Most can see what they have in front of them and are fairly realistic.

     

    Sometimes the numbers get skewed after a loss, when people are venting. Plus some just have a permanent bug up their backside.

    Mark, eball was just throwing a personality construct out there. You're not getting negative, are you? :lol::D (just teasing, I mostly agree)

     

    I'd say I'm about 50% EO and 50% TFF, but would guess anyone that remembers my (comparitively small number of)posts would say I'm an EO. I took a bet at the beginning of the year, for instance, that the Bills would surrender under 40 sacks.

  11. McKinnie did not have his best game tonight.  But give credit to Freeney, he was outstanding.  By the way, did anyone think that Freeney was offsides on that one play that he sacked Culpepper?  It looked like he timed the snap perfectly.

    109022[/snapback]

    It looked clean to me. I was surprised there weren't more booing at that call.

  12. Your post is imo totally correct. The problem is that there is not a GM in his right mind who would pony up a 2nd for Travis. A 4th would be great.

    108782[/snapback]

    I think other teams' offers will similarly be determined by their needs and the players available. If, for instance a salary-cap-strapped team has an okay RB, and no depth, TH might be a very good fit for them if the only ones in the draft look either too expensive or risky in the pros.

  13. If we trade Henry for one second rounder for a third and keep the fisrt second pick we will have two first rounders ,soooo we can trade the first first rounder and keep the second for a extra third, therfore we would have two second picks for the first two rounders unableing us three third picks for nine 9th rounders,thus giving us a total of 15 picks late in the first  round,which we could trade them together giving us an extra pick in the forth round, thus giving us picks in the fifth and seventh of the first five  rounds which we traded Henry for in the first place,oooooor we could.............ahhh fuk it!

    Smart ass. So he mistyped a bit....

     

    I think it depends on the players out there and don't know enough whether this is going to be a deep draft in areas we need help.... If you can get the player(s) you want, then you deal (up or down). I'd be pretty psyched to have two 2nd rounders. I tend to think that skill players in the top of the first round are not worth the risk for the $$ and I'm thrilled our first rounders from the last couple years seem to have real talent.

  14. Okay, so here's a different direction to take this: does anyone know if the ref's are looking at High Definition monitors when making their replay calls? It would be pretty ridiculous if they weren't, though I doubt the one(s) on the field are HD....

     

    As far as the "might have caughta break" comment goes, I simply took that as the AP writer was covering multiple games and didn't take the time to look closely and form his own opinion. He was more commenting on the commentary at the end than the game itself.
