Fan in Chicago

Bill, you need some props here. You have been saying this about EJ all along - that the OC should use his mobility and also do a lot of play action. Yesterday, he did all of that with great success so kudos to you. HOpe EJ continues to grow, mature and start becoming aggressive.

I was watching the game with a Bears fan and in the 4th Q, he asked me - have you seen Allen so far ? Is he playing this game ? Glenn dominated him.

Celebrated the beginning of a new season and new hope with 200 Bills fans while cheering the Bills comeback game. In Chicago. Celebrated the beginning of a new season and new hope with 200 Bills fans while cheering the Bills comeback game. In Chicago.

Mr. And Mrs. Cletus are totally cool. Great time at the preseason party in Chicago. Go Bills!

Damn right he does. For the next 14.5 hours.

Keep the wings hot and the beer cold. Ready to usher in the new season !

In the Metra train , about 20 minutes from downtown. Should be at Lincoln Station by 6.45 pm. Thanx to BillsBackers crew and TBC. Can't wait to see y'all.

Probably yes if you are in town with Mrs. Cletus. Unless you want to sample Menage a Trois

See you on Saturday !

That will be a lot of plane tickets. The restaurant is in Elk Grove, California

Show up where and for what ?

This can be looked upon as a sign of disrespect for the Bills O, bit I see it more as a lack of discipline. Media outlets around Chicago are critical of Trestman for excusing Briggs to open his restaurant in California: Sun Times Tribune

Guys, Check out this thread. http://forums.twobillsdrive.com/topic/169157-chicago-week-one/page__st__60__gopid__3235224#entry3235224 There is a (now) Bills-only party on Saturday from 7-10 p.m. Few of us will be going there again on Sunday to watch the game also. Thanx to The Big Cat for putting this together. RSVP for the Saturday event if you want to ensure getting in.

TBC, got my email with RSVP confirmation. I am so excited now that the bar is closed for our Bills-only party !! See you at 6:45-ish.

Oh you guys are smart - pushing your prison expenses on the US. Methinks Canada needs to produce less Biebers and more Eugenie Bouchards .

Good work and I agree with your matchup assessment. I think the Bears secondary can be exploited big time. The OL has to hold and EJ has to look for a big passing day. On D, our pass pressure and CBs are key.

This dude is going off the rails in a hurry.

I am not an IT guy so you know more than me. For years, I keep hearing glowing stories of how the Mac hardware/software resists viruses and attacks much better than Windows PCs. It seems like nothing negative ever happened to those computers. This 'break-in' indicates how vulnerable systems in general are. Any small flaw and someone will figure out a way to exploit it. Apple just eventually grew large enough to be a big enough target for hackers. Apple seems to have a teflon coating though - the maps disaster of last year (?) caused no effect on the iPhone's popularity and not sure this high profile breach may either.

Brady is a great QB. That said, **** Brady*

I used to live a tad north of you - in Warren, PA.

For years, the Apple fanboys have prided themselves and propagated the notion that 'my Mac doesnt get viruses or get attacks' . And this hack is now executed on the iCloud servers.

Whereabouts in North central PA ? Didn't know that civilization had touched that part of the earth.

Of immediate concern is the unfamiliarity of Orton to the Bills offense. (hold the joke about having only 4 plays to run). The two backups who knew the offense are not on the active roster. Till Orton comes up to speed (which could take a few weeks), we better pray like hell that EJ doesn't get nicked up (not that I ever want him to get hurt but from a team's perspective, especially not in the next few weeks). The trick in this situation is that wanting to protect EJ could result in a game plan which is too safe. I would have liked Whaley to keep Tuel till such a time as Orton is ready. Then stash him away on the PS. As it stands right now, the offense's hands may be tied with respect to how aggressive they can be.
