Did you say Trent was upset? Are you sure ? I don't think anyone has ever seen him upset. Even when he played poorly, he was never ups et.

Absolutely.

The NFL is "What have you done for me lately?". I am scanning the boards reading nonsense like "What took so long", "Maybe they could have just kept him a while longer?, "You know trade him for something, like a 7th rounder in 2020". Gentlemen and ladies, if you don't cut the mustard at work (unless you're union), how long does the boss give you to get it right? 3 months, 2 weeks, or until Friday? If the boss has no further use for you, will be at 5:00pm today? TE got 3 weeks of the regular season. In 2 of them he bombed. After the third it was obvious he was no longer needed. Did the coach mislead us 3 weeks ago with his comments? Yes, a little, but he said throughout the presesaon that although he had a pecking order, no one had clearly separated themselves. Well by game three someone finally had. We weren't really going to challenge for a playoff spot, so find out what we have and be exciting. Hopefully we will. Goodbye Trent, your demeanor will make you a good banker, but you will never be a leader.

Ah!! The good old days.

Sacks are wonderful and flashy, but not always indicative of how good or bad a defense is. Putting pressure on the QB is more telling. In the second half, Rodgers was making excellent throws under pressure that he didn't make in the first half. He also beat us twice on running plays where he was pressured out of the pocket and his receivers were covered. Had our QB and WR played half as well, we might have put up more numbers and looked competitive. As for the WR's johnson was short arming and Evans gave up on plays where he didn't appear to be the go to guy. As I stated near the end of my post. A QB in command can make a huge difference. We shall see.

I agree that we are not as bad as our 0-2 record indicates. Upon reviewing the games, I've noticed a couple things. Defense and special teams have played better than expected imo. Against GB, the defense was putting some pressure on Rodgers and forcing him to make critical throws to his receivers on their back shoulders, away from the coverage. They were great throws and catches. (ed. note - Jennings third down catch in the third quarter, after the interception, should have been challenged as he spun around he put the ball on the ground. Imo I believe that is an incomplete pass). The offense, particularly QB had time to throw, but a) didn't, b)did and the ball was dropped, and c) receivers didn't go far enough downfield to get first down yardage, even on third and 6 or less (they ran 3 and 4 yard routes), I am pretty sure that is not what was drawn up. Hopefully, the new QB will be in command and correct the QBing mistakes and be man enough to call out his receivers when they screw up. GO Bills!!!

Two weeks into a season we all knew, no matter what, was going to be rough to downright horrible and the same people harping on the same things are still here with the same comments. The previous administrations should have, could have, but didn't make the right moves. The owner is too cheap to buy a team of all stars to go win a superbowl (I notice Jerry Jones and Snyder have been there every year ). I too want to see a championship football team again before I die (At 63 that might be tough.How about the playoffs? LOL!!!) This administration has inherited the mistakes of the past, and unlike the one in Washington did not promise an immediate turn around (nor did they hint at a poor offensive showing in the first two games). But as the title suggests if we win Sunday the first two games will fade from memory and BB in NE will no longer be a genius. GO Bills!!!!

After watching the first two games a couple of times, it is evident that Chan's game plans were right on. It is also evident that Edwards either could not or would not execute them properly. Chan's reaction at the 6:20 mark of the second period against GB, 3rd and 13, it is obvious Chan expected TE to throw to an open receiver downfield and not to CJ as a safety valve. That is when TE lost his coach IMHO.

This defense has almost 8 qtrs. no turnovers.

A.) Lynch is locked up until 2012, so he's not leaving anytime soon. B.) T.O. signed a one year contract. Franchising him would have been a huge mistake imo. He is 37 years old I believe and was not heavily sought after. Wake up and quit playing fantasy football. This team will win and soon, but did anyone realistically believe we were going to make the playoffs?

Just as the phins are about to slide, the big Tuna decides it's time to move aside and let his proteges take over. http://www.nfl.com/news/story/09000d5d81a55345/article/parcells-becomes-consultant-as-gm-ireland-takes-over-dolphins?module=HP_headlines No reason to be there when it all goes bust.

Thank you one and all for your resumes. You will be contacted at season's end as to who will become our next QB coach.

According to Chan he was getting to his third receiver, so I doubt he was staring down his primary receiver. Also, I have watched the other QB's we have have played, they would appear to be doing the same.

I've noticed, and maybe you have too, that since CG started the camp with pads and hitting from the beginning we are beginning to get our early injured players back in time for the regular season. hopefully this means we won't be losing players when the real season begins, as in the past. "It's a tough game for tough players" - per CG.

The Black Building was the "Erie County Savings Bank" and "Main St. Mall". One of the top 25 Savings Banks in America at the end of the 70's. The HSBC Tower was originally Marine Midland Bank back then. Finally, the cool looking Bank building with the gold dome was "Buffalo Savings Bank", a top 20 Bank at the time. When savings bank went retail in the late 70's and the real estate market tanked in the 80's, these banks and their new young liberal turks took unnecessary risks and went under. (talking about the savings banks). Back then I worked for the "Big E". Thanks for the Pics.

Amen brother

Corner - he gets caught looking at the QB instead of staying with the receiver. Good for T2 not good for 3-4 one on one.

At this point I see the Defense trying a number of different looks, that are causing the LB's to think and react rather than just reacting automatically. Also, I am seeing a lot of Dline with 4 men hands down, not your conventional 3-4. Case in point maybin seems to always be in a DE position, rather than OLB, making it easier for the Oline tackle to pick him up. Wondering how we will be gameplanning for the regular season?

I have no idea what you're age is, but I do have a pretty good idea of your maturity level. On a scale of 0-10 with 0 being the lowest, it is probably 3 and that may be generous. a.) You are one who contributes to such antics, as shown on this board with your diatribes about what the team and coaching staff does or doen't do to meet your prescribed ideals for this organization. b.) I know that this post, if responded to by you will be dripping with sarcasm because you dislike being reprimanded like an insolent child. c.) And, try to grow up a little and show more respect to the new FO and coaching staff until they can actually show something in the coming season or not.

Minnesota may be a smaller market. what are their overall revenues and how much did they profit last year? If in fact they spent exhorbitantly to make that final push, good for them. As for Ralph prepaing for his estate and heirs, according to how many on this board view it, he already has his multi millions set up and should have simply sold the team in his middle to late eighties and given the funds as gifts while he could. unfortunately the longer you wait the more you become susceptible to the IRS two year rule, ( any money given as gift within two years of your death is considered transfer of wealth in anticipation of dying, even if the death is accidental. At this point if RW does not have his financial house in order with respect to his death, being cheap isn't going to help. If you don't like the product don't buy it until it improves!!!

This is a business! Not an app on iphones. How much does Jerry Johnson or the redskins generate in profits each year. If you can get more you will spend more. I wish you kids would get better educated. How about we look into your finances and tell you how you should spend them to better interest prospective employers to follow your career. My guess is you would not spend what others think you should to make you better.

I believe the possibility is real that we go 2-2 after the first 4. Why? Both Miami and the Pats have Defensive Weaknesses that can be exploited. Green Bay is clearly Superior on paper, but still gives up a lot of sacks. The jets are still strong defensively, but I believe weakened themselves if they are going to have more of a dependence on Sanchez.

Nice job. I like the look and feel.

Definitely looking toward this week's game. I am really enjoying NFL preseason live. Plug the computer into the Big Screen, sit back and enjoy the game. Can pause, and rewind on my schedule in HD.
