I will say to everyone that because the Giants are an NFC team, this is actually a good loss. -
9/11/23 GAMEDAY Week 1 Bills @ Jets MNF Pregame Thread
smuvtalker replied to Chandler#81's topic in The Stadium Wall
It's 1:19pm here in Louisiana, and today couldn't POSSIBLY go by any slower. If there was a pill I could take to make me just pass out for the next 6 hours I swear I would. Logic can I have a word with you in private please? -

Preseason Week 2 - Bills Vs. Steelers, what do you hope to see?
smuvtalker replied to Chaos's topic in The Stadium Wall
As much as I'd love to see #17 in action, I would have zero problem with him sitting the entire preseason. Would love to see Torrence get a lion's share of snaps Would love to see more of Isabella as a WR and a KR/PR Would love to see Dorian Williams get some time with the 1st and 2nd units Woud love to see Kyle Allen not look like Trent Edwards. -
Well said. I've waited several days before posting to give myself a chance to be more objective/less negative Nancy, but a spade is a spade, and I'm sorry, but I tend to lay more blame at the feet of Frazier/Dorsey than the players, HOWEVER, I am very much willing to give Dorsey a mulligan on the season with him being a first year play caller. I would even go as far as to say he did show some flashes of creativity as well as some days where I thought he called a good overall game, especially with his ability to mix in the run effectively, as well as get more touches for Cook, particularly after he began to improve as the season progressed. But he still deserves his share of blame. But FRAZIER? I sincerely apologize for beating this dead horse to death even further, but gentleman, in my sincerest, most humble opinion, his time here in Buffalo needs to rest in peace. Do I have a viable solution at this present moment? Aside from a snide, sarcastic remark, I do not. But the man's lack of creativity, his refusal to adjust even remotely to ANYTHING an offense throws at him bewilders me. To me it almost comes off as sheer defiance. And our players are the ones who have to pay the price for it. I've actually given up praying that some poor GM is desperate enough to give this man a head coaching job, and we actually receive a 3rd rounder. I am grateful for all Coach Frazier has done for our team. He seems to be a stand up guy, the players love him, and I wish him nothing but the best, but for the love of the Sweet Pickle Book Club, please let's get a new, fresh(yes young) defensive mind on the headset. Please.

Tua ruled out vs Buffalo, Skylar Thompson expected to start
smuvtalker replied to Process's topic in The Stadium Wall
For his own good really. Nice to see the Dolphins organization actually doing the right thing by a young player, and not just providing lip service. Bottom line is the guy shouldn't be playing at, for the sake of his own health and relatively young career. Now, on to what I expect to be an absolute shellacking on Sunday...- 455 replies

Can we take a moment and appreciate the front office
smuvtalker replied to Virgil's topic in The Stadium Wall
Appreciate the post Virgil. Count me among the grateful for all that we have. As a Bills fan for over four decades, I have been through my share of heartache, misery, lather, rinse and repeat. Of the Bills finding new ways to rip your heart out of your chest, snatching defeat from the jaws of victory. When the McDermott hire was made, it was more of a "meh", let's see what the guy can do. When he brought Beane on board, I actually remember thinking to myself, "wait, why is the head coach selecting our GM? Isn't it supposed to be the other way around? Here we go with some already instant Billsy type moves.". And then, fast forward to Thursday evening, April 26th, 2018. A night that would come to change my life, forever. The Bills were drafting 12th that night, there were rumors that Beane/McDermott were seriously considering making the jump higher into the first to go after their franchise quarterback. After the sixth pick, it was announced that they had pulled the trigger, and made a trade with Tampa to pick seventh. "This is it," I thought to myself. We're going after Josh! With Mayfield going one overall and Darnold going at three to the Jets, Josh was still there for the taking!!! Then, I heard it. "With the seventh pick in the NFL draft, the Buffalo Bills select Josh Allen, quarterback, Wyoming." I threw the TV remote all the way across the room. I vomited violently. I tried to Patrick Swayze Roadhouse kick my flat screen off of the wall, unsuccessfully. I was instantly suicidal. The Bills did it to me again. They picked the WRONG JOSH! I was squarely in the Josh Rosen camp, and just knew we would finally get things right. Let me just say, that Josh Allen crow, never tasted so good. I thank God every day that our team was entrusted to Sean McDermott and Brandon Beane, and if there was a better way to express my gratitude for everything they've done for this organization, I'm happy to do so. The turnaround, the positive changes they have brought to our team, and ultimately our city, simply can't be overstated. We are without a doubt an elite football team, and have become such a successful franchise, we actually have nitpicked and argued about the problems/flaws with a team that just finished the regular season 13-3, despite countless injuries, a mass shooting, a blizzard that killed 40 plus people, having to relocate to a different stadium due to weather, the witnessing of a teammate collapse and die on the field....yet failed to lose a game through any of those things. And the three losses? A COMBINED total of 8 points. If there's a better coach/GM combo out there....I don't want em. I'm more than happy with what we've been blessed with. -
Why we play in KC EVERY year ... or at least why it feels that way.
smuvtalker replied to damj's topic in The Stadium Wall
Yeah, regardless of the results, I'm tired of visiting freakin Arrowhead every @#$_ year. -
Love the optimism, love the fact you put it out there for all to see, and criticize, and the bottom line is, you nailed it my Italian friend. Kudos to you amico! Here's to our Bills beating the brakes off the Dolphins Sunday afternoon in Orchard Park, and beginning a nice new four game winning streak!

I’m kind of Over the Hines Experiment
smuvtalker replied to EmotionallyUnstable's topic in The Stadium Wall
Friend, Hines was specifically brought in to address our KO/PR issues. Noone expected him to be the man at RB, or to unseat Singletary or Cook as our starting RBs. There's nothing wrong with eating a little crow now and then. Hell I eat it all the time, and I find it you wash it down with a nice bottle of Chianti.....it can actually be quite satisfying! -
Uhh. I'm not sure how to react to this.... Wtf....

NFL Week #18 - Patriots* @ Bills - Post Game Thread
smuvtalker replied to BuffaloBill's topic in The Stadium Wall
Well said. Look, I'm as frustrated with Gabe as the rest of us. But I'm simply not ready to throw the towel in with him. I know I may be in rare company, and some of you may highly disagree with me, but I'm of the mindset to keep him exactly where he is as our starting WR2, and hope that Josh continues to throw his way. I would love to see him work through this "funk" he's in. If you look at his numbers, I think you could make a fair argument that he is doing an "okay" job as the #2. Obviously his numbers could be significantly better, but I still think he has the chance to be a HIGHLY productive WR. I like what another poster said in that they would like to just hit the button to get "Playoff Gabe". -
Thanks bro. Well, at first glances I can say that seems to be a pretty tough schedule... especially that away slate. Jesus why does it seem like we play the Chiefs AWAY every single year?

The Bills beat the Bears because.... (karma reasons only)
smuvtalker replied to Just Jack's topic in The Stadium Wall
I have a white long sleeve Bills Mafia t-shirt. To my shame, I have not washed it since Nov 13th. However, we also have not lost since.....Nov 13th. Needless to say, my poor Bills Mafia tee will NOT be being washed again until we drop another one, OR win it all! Here's to hoping it doesn't get washed until Monday, February 13th! -
Week 16: Bills at Bears on Christmas Eve
smuvtalker replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall
Let me say this....I too would love to see us turn in a complete game, ie offense, defense and special teams. However I don't think we necessarily NEED one at this point in the season. #1 AFC East, #1 AFC and controlling our destiny for that 1st round bye. Dude, I just got a closer look at your avatar ....is your pumpkin throwin up retatta??? 🤣🤣🤣 -

Roster Moves to Sign Brown & Beasley to the 53?
smuvtalker replied to Warriorspikes51's topic in The Stadium Wall
You guys don't think Beasley will be elevated to be able to play this Sunday? My apologies, I just assumed it would be a foregone conclusion that Beasley was playing Sunday....
