Offside Number 76

After Wendy's spun off the chain last year, it has made more aggressive plans to penetrate the US beyond its base of Western NY/Ohio/Michigan. There are stores in ten states now, including Connecticut and Massachusetts, so it's probably just a matter of time before it hits the island. But with Dunkin's strength in New England/Mid-Atlantic (in Boston it's practically a religion), how well will Tim's do in those areas?

Awesome--thank you

Amen. I'm supposed to buy tickets so some jackass who has deserted this town can "follow" the team from afar and tell me it's "68 at the beach?" F off already. Like it would matter to you if they moved.

The entire goal of the offense today was to run and run clock, and keep Manning on the sidelines. Has nothing to do with Losman, Thomas, even Pennington.

Could Miller have won last night instead of Biron? You bet. Again, common sense is leaving this place quickly. Thomas was terrific. McGahee would have done at least as well.

High-powered offense for an opponent. The obvious strategy is to run the ball and run the clock. How do you think the Giants won XXV? Because Hostetler was a stud? The tactics today had nothing to do with faith in Losman, and everything to do with common sense against an offense like Indy's. Pull it together and freaking think for a change.

At least they lost quickly. It's only ten of four.

No. Freaking. Way.

NO protection.

Amen.

If it helps, you should know that the guy who writes TMQ is from Kenmore and is a HUGE Bills fan.

Same thing in the UCLA-Irish game. Charlie Weis didn't use his timeouts--oh wait, he DID use them. So THAT's how Notre Dame won, those sneaks. Clock management is a real problem for these Bills, when it should be so easy.

Nice run, Willis, but where's the stiff-arm?

I think part of Kevin Tillman's point is that while soldiers are making sacrifices, the sacrifices are in no way connected to stability in the future.

You bastard. Now I do, too.

Seriously. Wish they were in my pool.

If you really want precision, you can't beat the Wondertwins. Never is a moment or action wasted with those two. So the Bills need to use two quarterbacks, every play and every down. And don't bring Gleek into this. Gleek sucks.

They did try a play action in the red zone. It ended with a sack and a field goal.

Don't ask that question, especially not on the last Jets drive. Blame all of it on the QB instead. Someone else wrote that if you told him the Bills would score 20, he would have bet on a win. Same here. The Jets D scored 7 points; where did the other 21 come from?

NOW it's over.

Sh*t nice tackle by Hamilton.

It wasn't over for the Patriots two weeks ago and it isn't over for the Bills now.

Was the segment about the Bills-Dolphins game? Or about quarterbacks who are underachieving? Doesn't seem like the Bills' D would be relevant to the topic. When they do their segment about overachieving defenses, they should mention Buffalo, though.

You're not worried about the over in the Old Browns-New Browns game? That could end 20-6, easily.

I'm tempted to say the same thing. I wonder if Jauron is tempted to listen?
