Where did you hear that the Bills are considering starting Bradham over Moats ? That is what we have been saying for several years and yet here we are.

So, you self-admitedly "have not watched a lot of him this year" yet you can make all these assertions regarding his play. You say "he looks clueless out there" without actually seeing him ? ooookkkk You mean like Kyle WIlliams, Stevie Johnson or Fred Jackson or are you referring to the field stretcher Lee Evans or perhaps the cog of the LB core Poz ?

1200 yards given up by the D in two games, 97 points against. Let that sink in for a minute. Then tell me there is not enough reason for the outrage. The D is not good enough to make the thread for NFL's doormat.

No matter what I think of the premise of this post (i.e. sports are rigged) or of the Bills chances of making the playoffs, this is a very very fun thread. The Bills suck, bad. I get it and have a thousand posts that look at every minutiae and come to the same conclusion. This thread, OTOH, offers a different look and a different discussion.

I really wonder what the root of the problems are. I thought George Edwards was in over his head and wanted him replaced. I was happy to see DaveW get the job as his previous track record as DC is pretty good. He has decent talent to use yet we see this embarassment of a D on the field ? Not sure what is going on but it is very very bad. We have gone through some low points over the last decade or so but I can't recall feeling so short of hope.

This game and season is going down in a hurry

At this point, this score is NOT on Fitz. Except for that wrong pass to TJ, Fitz has been doing well. our D is getting their rears kicked at the line of scrimmage and then deep

Dareus was held on that Smith run. Not called

No it did not, but it doesnt always have to. Receivers have to make that play

Sit down, Aaron Williams

I agree on the D scheme part. It is maddening to see how the Pats* adjusted on O in the second half and we just could not do anything to stop them. You don't need a half time to make adjustments. Seeing as they were running between the tackles for huge chunks of yards should have indicated that we need Shep, Moats etc in there. The Pats* counter punched us and Wanny failed to respond. His stubbornness coupled with the total lack of push from Mario W allowed the Pats* to kick us all over the field. So far, I have been an apologist for the D and kept saying that it will take time for the scheme to come together and be effective. But no scheme with so much talent should allow the total disaster we witnessed. I cannot blame the O this time too much. Despite the turnovers in the first half, they looked competent and scored decently. With a sub-average QB and inadequate WR corps, we should not have to lean on the O to carry the load. The Browns game was the perfect example of how we can win - solid D with a slightly above average O. This O cannot keep up with the likes of the Pats* yet. The D's repeated inability to stop them put the O in a hole which it was unable to dig itself out of. One point which bears mentioning is that it was apparent that both CJ and FJax did not appear to be even 90%. While playing them was fine, I thought Choice should have been given way more touches. After all, he did well in relief in the last game. So put Spiller and FJax, but balance the running attack by using the fully healthy Choice and perhaps CMac for the goal line situation. It is weird why Gailey did not try the healthy RBs. All in all, quite an incompetent performance. As good as the first half was, the second half's debacle is mostly on the coaches.

It is a good movie and worth seeing. It could be trimmed a bit in the second half but other than that ....

very classy, Mr. Brady and Belichick. Very classy running up the score.

Did you find out D in the freezer there ?

Jets getting their rears kicked in by the 49ers. We have a chance to grab sole possession of first place. Lets go Buffalo !!!

i was going to suggest putting Hairston in place of Pears but he may be required on the left side. This is disintegrating fast.

This is gut check time. Do we have it in us to get back up and give it back to them ?

That is a BS penalty on Kyle.

Very good punt. Hope D has adjusted again

Gilmore is having himself a heck of a game. We would have been at least down by 7 if not for him today

So i have heard that the Pats* have great TEs. Nice to know

How did Chandler get so deep so quickly ? That is a highlight reel catch guys. 30 seconds for the game to turn

TJ getting open. That is the good news. Could have been two huge plays

Can I go into the commentators booth and slap Dierdorf ???
