  1. Plus he got lucky when Marshall could not grab that "would be" TD pass that was slightly behind him.
  2. Too much was made about Fitz's interceptions being "lack of" arm strength. This is BS. On the 2nd INT he was literally backpedaling and threw off his back foot. He did not set his feet at all. Terrible mechanics and the only national media person I heard point this out was Tony Dungy. It may have been b/c the Giants pass rush was in his head. On his first INT, it was not as blatant but he still did not set his feet and throw. This is stuff that is taught at the high school level. I'm sure FItz and coaches will break down his mechanics over the next 2 weeks. I suspect he will overthrow guys in the 2nd half of the season so to not let this happen again. Hope not but I wouldn't be surprised.
  3. I have a feeling this is finally our year to win in TO. Redskins defense is no joke though.
  4. It was great to see Naaman take that to the house. It also shut the people up who say he has no speed. He's not a burner but he has plenty of football speed to get open and get some good YAC.
  5. I said in the pre game chat yesterday that I had a bad feeling about the Giants game. I really thought the roof was going to cave in for like a 34-13 loss or something like that. I was pleasantly surprised the team fought and made it a totally winnable game. Seems like they have gotten over one hump (being able to win some nailbiters and not getting blown out),,,but winning the close games on the road is the next hump. The O got the ball back at Cinci and yesterday and could not win the game. This is probably not a playoff team until they can win a couple of those type games on the road.
  6. When you break it all down...look at the fortunate turnovers we've gotten, some favorable calls our way, some bad calls, sieve defense, injuries, etc.. The Bills are 4-2 and that's about exactly where they should be. It's a cliche "you are what the record says you are"...but it's true.
  7. Its NFL football. You're not gonna dominate for 4 Qtrs. You just hope to put up enough points in the Qtrs you do control.
  8. As pointed out by Dungy tonight, Fitz was so gun shy about the Giants pass rush he threw that ball back pedaling and did not set his feet at all. Really bizarre throw by Fitz and when you watch it closely you can see his mechanics are all screwed up. I love Fitz but that throw was all on him. Stevie was open and had separation. Interesting that Manning threw it away last week at the end with a bizarre INT and this week it's Fitz'z turn. BTW- Drew Brees also ended his game with a terrible INT in the Bucs end zone. All great QBs throw some bad picks.
  9. We are gonna be fighting for a wild card berth. Start rooting hard against teams like Cinci, Oak, SD, Pit, Balt, Tenn, and of course NYJ
  10. I actually thought the Giants DB made two nice ints. Underthrown yes, but great picks
  11. Shwartz said that Harbaugh used an obscenity at the end of a very hard handshake. Harbaugh took responsibility for it
  12. post of the day. end it right here
  13. I agree. 4-2 is a great start was the way they lost to Cinci and now today you feel a bit empty. This loss today could be the difference between making and not making the playoffs. Overall though I'll take 4-2
  14. ha, by some of these posts, she probably thinks the majority of this fanbase are hard up middle aged men still living in their parents basement. Anyway, nice of her to stop by and continue to build her fanbase. Glad we (Bills) could give her some misery for one extra week but I wish the Eagles good luck the rest of the way. I work with some obnoxious Redskins fans so hopefully Philly will quiet them for a week.
  15. I followed Lloyd closely when he was in Washington. Complete douche and very much about himself. I don't even think he really likes football that much. He has a lot of outside interests. I'd stay away from this guy. Far!
  16. If the Colts do trade Wayne to anyone, they are simply punting the season and going hard for the heir to Manning (in Mr. Luck).
  17. I thought the exact same thing when i got my package today
  18. The original poster made a good point. I've been thinking the same thing. Because of the uncanny amount of turnovers (breaks, skillful but some luck thrown in)...the BIlls simply have to ride this wave to the playoffs and a deep run at that. This is the kind of year like the Bears had where you get a ton of Defensive and/or special teams TD's and ride it. Next year we could play the same set of five teams and start 1-4. I think we can all admit we're not THAT much better (if at all) than the Pats, Eagles and Raiders. We took advantage of every little break. This team is ball hawking but does not have the personnel yet to physically stop teams at will or score at will imo. I'm just glad after 10 years that the Bills are getting some great bounces for once. Let's enjoy it. We know next year it could be the complete opposite.
  19. We were talking about this at work recently. There is some precedent like this in pro sports. The San Antonio Spurs had some great seasons w/ David Robinson and either won their division or finished 2nd for 7 straight years. If you check the history, Robinson got hurt for the 1996-97 season and they went 20-62. The Spurs totally lucked out and won the draft lottery that season and got Tim Duncan. This pissed off alot of teams that had perennial losing seasons and of course the Spurs went on to win 4 Championships over the next 10 years (and seemingly were in the finals or semi-finals every year). There's your history lesson. Could this be similar to the 2012 draft fortunes of the Indy Colts? We'll see.
  20. I'm a huge fan of football but could not give a crap about this song. Good riddance to Hank.
  21. There's gotta be a couple thousand Eagles fans going to the game, I'm sure some will be spending the night. Also, a UB home game so any leftover rooms around Amherst might be snagged by some Ohio folks.
  22. Do you realize it was only less than a year ago that people were saying it was the Low point for Buffalo sports? The Bills and Sabres had the worst records in their respective leagues. Neither was showing signs of life. Of course things got better and now we sit here with the 3-1 Bills and the Sabres touted as one of the Eastern Conference favorites.. Lets hear it for some optimism!!
  23. They're not going to win all the home games, they never do. So please don't get suicidal if they lose a home game or two. The Bills will win a couple more tough games we think could be losses...and they will lose a couple more like Cinci, where we think they should win. Let's just hope they get to 10 wins and even that is not a guarantee for playoffs.
  24. If not the Bills, then i hope he goes to the NFC
