  1. I agree it was a fumble.  However, how are they supposed to replay that?  Ok, they review it and say, "You're right, it was a fumble."  However, the whistle blew so players stop going to the ball.  How can you determine possession?

     

    It sucks that they made the wrong call (although it was very close on replays -- obviously out, but still close).  But they couldn't replay it since you can't determine who would get possession. :(

    The ball was stripped and the Bills player had the ball. The refs had to have blown the whistle before Dillon even stopped falling to the ground! This was just a blown call and it bordered on criminal that it was ruled "unchallengable". Another "just give it to them" sort of pro-Patriot stevestojan call. :I starred in Brokeback Mountain: :I starred in Brokeback Mountain:

     

    In general, maybe they make the down a do-over. Instead of simply telling the lesser team to bend over and smile, they could put the time back on the clock and have them run it again -- and forfeit their paychecks. :blink:

  2. There was someone playing LG today? You're pulling my leg!

     

    I think the point wasn't so much to rip on Willis as it was to criticize the MOVE to draft Willis and the way this MOVE has "helped" the Buffalo Bills "improve" as a football team.

     

    I happen to think Willis was an incredible talent before he blew out the knee. Will he ever get back to that point? I don't know.

     

    It was arrogance to take a RB when the Bills didn't really need a RB and had other holes to fill in their line-up and further to take a RB that wasn't going to help the team in 2003 with the team's #1 pick.

     

    It is a wasted pick in the sense that the Bills haven't gotten any return on that investment. Nothing. He sat out last year. He's riding the bench this year and only rarely gets on the field and then only as a decoy. The return might be argued to be negative in that Travis Henry seems to be more focused on telling reporters who's #1 than keeping his shoelaces tied, running the right plays, and picking up a blitzer once or twice a season.

  3. Now to be clear ... I NEVER want to see Drew running as a option but it WAS open all day.

     

     

     

    It may have been "open" ... and for *damn* sure the Patriots would never dream of defending it ... but we are talking about the slowest guy on the field. What is Bledsoe's 40 time these days? 2.5 hours? He's so pathetic, anybody could've easily caught him from behind and tackled him for a loss. And it was 3 yards, so just tucking the ball into his belly button and falling forward would not have worked either.

  4. Bootleg???

     

    I don't think it was a bootleg at all, but if it was then the Bills have, hands-down, the stupidest coaching staff in sports. A bootleg with Bledsoe. Where the **** was the dolly and the guys to push the statue around on the dolly?

     

    It was a disasterous play call in any case. The Bills have ZERO ability to block blitzers up the middle and Bledsoe has no legs. The Patriots blitzed to stuff the run, nobody blocked, and they were on top of both the QB and the RB (if he got the ball) instantly.

     

    The coaches had to have known the Patriots would be blitzing and Bledsoe had zero chance from under center. Dumb.

  5. Well here is the thing.  Coaches can instill a losing attitude, Williams and his idiot staff may have done that, but GOOD coaches that come in and replace losers make their teams better.  Does this team look any better???

     

    I mean when Bill Parcells comes to a new team full of losers he makes them winners.........our team is still a pack of losers and idiots.

    Remember that saying, "You play the way you practice"?

     

    The evidence seems to indicate either the Bills do not practice or their practices are the sloppiest most disorganized chaotic set of random activities one can imagine. Are the coaches out on the golf course during practices or something?

  6. Hold up people. Our whole pass rush sucks. Outside or up the middle it just doen't exist.

    What's surprising to me is that some people didn't already know this was going to be the case again this year.

     

    The track record has been to find "high motor" guys who lack talent and skill or grab cheap veterans with rusty pins in their legs and hope it all falls out of the clear blue sky somehow.

  7. Look, I know a loss hurts but wanting a change for changes sake is not the answer.  Henry is a great back, GREAT.  Top 10 in the league, maybe top 5. 

     

    You wanna bench him because of one or two falls?  For an unproven back with a gimp leg?  Are you people crazy???

    FWIW, I don't think Henry should be benched nor even that Willis should start. But I think that if you have a guy that you claim is "100%" and "was a #1 overall sort of talent", well, you owe it to your franchise to figure out how to get him the ball. With his homerun threat speed and supposedly good hands, why not give him some of Jake Reed's playing time or one of the lousy, useless TEs?

  8. Willis was a mistake. If you think about it who in there right mind would use a first round pick to draft severely damaged goods? I mean there had to be better options at the time. How about a big time Dline or Oline guy? I dont know. I know hind sight is 20/20 but even then it didnt make any sense to me.

    The answer is simple.

     

    It made headlines. Headlines like "Tom Donahoe makes stone cajones selection."

  9. Why did we draft Willis? He looks great on the bench uh?

    54068[/snapback]

     

    Now, *that* is a question.

     

    What the **** went through the braintrust's collective head when they drafted Willis? It *must* have been, damn we need more team speed on the *BENCH*!

     

    Hey, Henry runs tough and is a good back, sure. But what are they "saving" Willis for? Put him on the field *and* call his number as a change up. Anything is better than watching the statue take sacks with unblocked blitzers coming through by the dozens.

  10. I could not believe how FAR he was getting pushed away from the play.....that's what disappointed me most

    It takes a high motor guy to run that far away from the play.

     

    What the **** is wrong with Donahoe anyway? One would think a professional football executive would know the value of having a semblance of a pass rush. But apparently Tom missed that class in football 101.
