Well said Bill. Eventually there are holes on the line that we have to fill. We can't throw players into the Offensive line hoping that they're going to be the answer. We have to go out and sign a player like Steve Hutchinson.

That's the way it goes. However, lets think positively. After we win today, we can criticize the way we played in the previous two losses.

Yikes. What happened to the shout song?

Very Superstitous. I don't think that's true at all, let alone makes sense. Besides TKO is a player that can come back from almost anything.

Saints 24 Bills 9 I hope I'm way off.

I don't know if it's easy for a 23 year old to say this but tell them what you think, explain why, and if those parents don't like it, too bad. At least you know you did the right thing. I was a little league umpire for almost ten years before I became a currency trader. Let me tell I would get into fights with A LOT of parents almost every game. One time I had to kick 5 people out of the game on opening day. I don't even look back on it because I know I did the right thing.

The situation is much different this year with our quarterback. But you're right, if they play like a team they can win. Playoffs? Well, at least it's not out of the question at this point.

Stopping the run is definitely the problem, something we were strong at last year. It's time for Tim Anderson to get a look in the starting lineup.

I think all Bills fans are for that, TKO is terrific. While were at it, maybe we'll improve our offensive line.

I'll say Saints 24 Bills 9. I think the struggles continue. Hopefully JP won't get injured.

He's trying to hard. I'd like to see him go back to kicking it 45 yards consistently. It looks like sometimes he's trying to kick it to the other end of the stadium and then knocks it off the side of his foot. He'll probably come back next game and start knocking those kicks far like he did last year.

How has he been unlucky?

We can fix it next year. I still think that with JP's progress it will be important to have him in there starting every game. Hopefully we'll resign Clements before the end of the regular season. The offensive line needs a top upgrade at at least one position, with a solid backup which we had last year in Marcus Price.

Patience......... With time, he'll come around and next year he could be a star. This guy has a good attitude and it appears he's hungry to win and prove the critics wrong.

Time to put in Tim Anderson against the run.

Yes it is optimistic. Yes, he has shown the ability to move the ball once in a while. What I haven't seen since the first game is the ability to throw the ball down the field. Granted his offensive line on several plays isn't giving him enough time, but it would be nice to see some progress next week. It's not going to happen over night, we know that.

I saw that game last night till the very end. A true classic. I agree with you, I liked what Fullmer did by taking out the strong armed Ainge to put in the leader Claussen when they were down 21-0.

I strongly disagree with you about the OL. The OL blocking was below average the entire game. JP didn't have very much time to throw and when he did, as he put it- was hesitant. I think he was hesitant because he was thinking he was going to get hit. The quarterback sneak was not the greatest of calls but to pick up a yard you've got to get the push against that DL

Well said. What you mentioned is right on the mark.

Bledsoe was as good as anyone when he had time to throw last season which wasn't all that often. This year I think he would have been more frusturated than last year.

Well if that's the case then its rebuilding all over again. What would the point of all of that? Not resigning Clements? Then we let him go and then draft a first or second round CB. We would be right back to square one of the TD era.

Good post. You listed all of the Bills draft picks along with their free agent pickups and on the offensive line it hasn't been consistent. It would be nice to get a few extra OL lineman who are solid players. Mike Williams eventually will be good, if not great.

I will hold you to that comment next year. Get an offensive line that can pass block and then we'll see how good JP is.

I still say 8-8. This team still has a lot of fight left in them. If JP had a little more time to throw, then I think that would open the door. if he doesn't get anytime like today, 5-11 could hold up.

Since the first week when we won I haven't heard a lot about Edwards. I also saw that we were using Tim Anderson and Justin Bannan a lot today. Is it possible that he'll be replaced in the starting lineup?
