Fan in Chicago

maybe he is pandering to this board. Seeing the reaction here, made him doubt himself ?{wishful thinking}

Yes, but this time he has picked the Bills and Golic (who ?) has picked the fins. So what is the point of your post ?

Not to start another DB bashing spree, but I can imagine how much better we would be if we had a mobile QB in there for ther first 6 games. If we had one 1-2 more wins, we would be in the thick of things as opposed to being mathematically in the race for the playoffs.

I am not an expert and Fezmid's answer is probably all you need.' But, for future audio-video questions, visit http://www.avsforum.com . It is a fantastic site for all sorts of discussions regarding anything AV. You get a good discussion leading to an answer in less than a day. The best part is, there is no commercial connection of this site so all the people are there for the love of the science.

My only complaint of TD's tenure has been the hiring of GW and KGilbride. Overall, given the trade-offs, I have been happy having him managing our team, personnel and salary cap situation.

The pass defense stat surprised me. Whatever the reasons, maybe we do need to pound it more than we have recently. More than any other game, getting some early scores will help keep the crowd quiet and Feeley on his heels. I still think we will surprise them by throwing early and then changing to the run game.

I just looked up Moulds stats from the last 3.5 years against Miami Rec Yards TD 2001 6 196 2 6 82 0 2002 3 81 1 5 130 1 2003 2 30 0 3 20 0 2004 5 99 0 Except for last year, he seems to have faired very well against the fins. I am willing to bet that he has a big day this weekend as their secondary is not as strong as their run defense. I predict > 100 yards receiving w/2 TDs. Miami will be gearing up to defend WM and give a bit on their pass defense. What do you guys think ?

Yes we should always be nervous but the players should be even more so and not look beyond any opponent. Now our game plan should have shifted from proving we can win to trying for the playoffs. every game counts (cliche ofcourse).

In a rare situation maybe, but the board of directors always has a succession plan in place. example - my company's CEO gave about a 2 week notice for a personal reason and the board had the new guy report to work in that time frame. He is permanent and not interim. Nice try yourself.

Okay. Sometimes I think this concept of interim coach is nonsense. Sorta like telling the shareholders of a company that the CEO resigned and someone from the local temp office will do his job till we find a real CEO. If the current coach is going to be fired, have a permanent replacement in mind first. If the coach quits, hold him to his contract till a permanent replacement is hired. I realize that most perm replacements are coaching currently. Anyway, just my worthless 2 cents.

I didn't get what you mean by that

Check out the section "Pilot-Cheerleader of the week". An intelligent hottie Navy lady ? Not too many guys are worthy of her....

This is very funny !

It won't be all easy. My prediction is that it is a tough first half and a relatively easy second. However, the margin of victory will be fairly large 30-13 No flames please - this is just a wild a**ed prediction.

Naah - I think another big margin of victory. It will stay close for the first half when we wear them out and then start racking up long runs, long pass plays. Bills win 30-13

Umm.. AD did not hijack it - ICE's responses did.

So now she agrees that size does not matter ?

I certainly hope not - we are all Bills fans. We should not fight amongst ourselves for an internal issue. I think the boos will start on the first series that he is under center.

I am with you on this one. This is an example of the 'mistakes' a rookie HC will do so I don't think much of it. Look guys, the game was out of hand. If this was at half-time, I would be angry as we still had a chance to pull out a comeback. The mistake was really in delaying the decision to pull DB till so late in the game. It was eminently obvious by the end of the 1Q that DB was playing bad. So instead of helping him defend his manhood in front of fans of his ex-team, MM should have put SM in and see what we could salvage.

Can't be - After I read this thread, I fed my half-naked lawn statue some soup and she still refuses to move.

This might have some merit, but I don't see Dallas needing a WR esp. one with no upside. IN general, it looks like most think chances of this trade are nil. That kinda sucks - would have been good to get our #1 pick back. I still think TH packaged with someone else (existing player or a lower draft pick) can get us a #1.

Last night's MNF game showed that the Cowboys don't have a consistent running game and Vinny is washed up as well. So, how about an off-season trade w/Dallas to get back our first round pick ? Just maybe Parcells thinks that he can use DB again till they find a long term soultion at QB. I really forgot how long TH is signed till. Is he a FA after this season or the next ? I think we have him till next year so it will technically qualify as a trade. If TD is a good negotiator, he will get more than just one first rd pick for the two of them together but considering TH's lack of playing time this season and DB's awful performance, their combined trade value may be low. Thoughts ?

But, but ... how does proving it help us ? (1) We are NOT a playoff caliber team, (2) DB will not be starting next year So, even if the current batch on the offense proves they can overcome adversity, that will not help with JP in there next year. It is better to prove it by the end of the season WITH JP so we are launching for next year. Much as coaches like to not admit the season is over, it is better to look at reality and act accordingly. Did naming McGahee a starter prove that MM had given up ? I bet the line is not as bad as DB makes it look. Yesterday was the first time I saw the Bills play and it is amazing how many times, DB could have just slid or moved somewhat to avoid a pass rush. But he does not and the line gets flak for 'having defenders in his face'. At a minimum, JP will learn to sense pressure, move away and make throws on the run. Purely from a business standpoint, it will put some interest in an otherwise putrid season and sell some seats.

I think an overwhelming majority of this board agrees. Unfortunately, I also saw this article: http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/news?slug=fanb...nball&type=lgns Not sure I saw it in the Buff News so don't know the real origin of this news article. It would help if MM came out today and said so directly thus ending speculation once and for all.
