FIRE JAURON
FIRE FAIRCHILD.
No one has ever questioned the players' loyalty to Jauron. Its common knowledge he's a players' favorite.
But til he gets this team to the playoffs (and 3-0 isn't the playoffs), he's still in my bad books. Particularly because of his inability to see the horrendousness of Fairchild and to continue to go with him week after week.
If he didn't leave on his own accord, how many of you believe Jauron would have relieved him? I think his loyalty to his staff would have stopped him. My opinion though....

Yeah, if you have any kind of pride whatsoever in your body, this should piss you off. Not to mention every other teams fans calling us the Toronto Bills......the International Bills........The Canadian Bills...........or the USA Today this Monday having a small article about the Bills clicking at the perfect time while in serious flirtations with Toronto about moving there.
The whole thing really pisses me off.
Big Tree, all the hotels, Danny's and all of the other bars, eateries, hotels, and citizens should be pissed that the money making Bills are actually taking more money OUT of Buffalo to have the fuggin game in Canada.
UGH!
!@#$ the NFL sometimes!
But still, Go Bills!
They'll stop calling them the Toronto Bills once the Rams or Jags move there.

The ascent of the AFC's underdogs early in this season has been remarkable. But to me, the most amazing aspect thus far is the collective collapse of the favored AFC teams.
Yes, Brady*s knee is center stage and blamed for the Pats* apparent unraveling, but their defense was straight up destroyed Sunday. I don't recall ever seeing a Bellychick-coached team so confused, out of position and pushed around. The Pats* had (and still have) a chance to show they are more than just the supporting cast of a future HOF QB.
Everyone knew the Jests shouldn't have been among the favored, but they were, so I won't waste my typing just to preach to the choir.
The Colts and Jags have suffered serious rashes of injuries, but they both still have their real stars. They just collectively dropped their level of play to average. Many thought Manning could just will wins for this team. Not so, obviously. The Jags were many people's Super Bowl pick if not the Pats*. I would say that is now clearly a bad prediction.
The Browns may be the most disappointing team in the NFL. I really thought they had an above-average team last season and only improved in the off-season. Well, they are playing below average and don't seem to have what it takes to turn it around this year. Last year's breakout player of the year (Anderson) is close to being benched, it is reported. What a disaster this is for that franchise.
The Chargers got screwed by the refs against their biggest rival and lost a last-second heart-breaker in the season opener. OK, just bad luck? Maybe, but that was the story of the year for the Bills last season. That's what happens to teams on the cusp but ones that will be on the outside looking in come winter. The Chargers have the most talent-laden roster in the NFL. The have to win now, and they aren't. If you cannot win the close ones...
The Steelers didn't really collapse, yet. It will be interesting to see how they rebound from the physical loss to Philly.
It's a long season, and we've only just begun, but it is fantastic that these teams have started off so lackluster. It is just what the sport needed as the leaugue's famed parity was nearly endangered.
San Diego started 1-3 last year and rebounded to finish with a playoff spot and a place in the AFC Championship. With their roster, I expect them to be there again. However with Merriman and Castillo both possibly out, their defense becomes very suspect.
The surprise for me is Tennessee. Our course, I really shouldn't be surprised as Jeff Fisher is possibly the most under-rated coach in the league and probably one of the best. I would kill to see him behind our bench. No one does so much with so little like he does.
Steelers will always be competitive.

Go over to Finhaven.com. They probably have as many Canadians posting on that board as TwoBillsDrive does.
You do realize that there's more than one city in Canada right? (Just setting myself up for Crayonz....)
Just ridiculous....Toronto is a Bills haven. They have as many Fin fans as they do Colt fans, Patriot fans, Charge fans etc...
How many Dolphin season ticket holders reside in Toronto....?
By your logic, people in Toronto love the Cancun Crushers of the Mexico Football League because a lot of them go there for vacation.....
-
Not that you've proven worthy of my reply, but look at the opponents that a HEALTHY Turner has faced. I don't know if you noticed it, but my grandmother went in in the fourth quarter against Kansas City and rushed for 65 yards in clock winding mode.
Yes but I think you're underestimating your Grandma's ability to cut back and hit the hole fast.

Turner thru 3 games in ATL:
366 Yds
Avg/Game 122.0
5 TDs
If LT were there not only would he not match those #'s, he'd be sulking all the time. Best in league? No way.
Great comparison....you're comparing a back who's rarely ever started to a back who's played starter since coming out in the draft. Many have questioned your football knowledge and the fact you don't even take into account the relative SHORT life span of a RB just furthers the argument.
Many say that LT is past his peak, but LT past his peak is still better than 50% of the RBs in this league. Sheesh.
As for Favre.....let it go. His numbers don't lie and neither does the fact that teams he QB'ed have actually won their division and made the playoffs. Two SB appearances, 4 NFC Championships. Any one here would give their left nut to have that kind of record over the last 10 years.
-
I'll be more specific.
Faulk, Smith, Barber...
RUNNING BACKS invariably make lousy analysts - really they are just backing up their trend of getting the lowest wonderlic scores every year in the draft. All I can figure about Mike Golic is that he must have played RB as a kid...
On the other hand, QB's and O-Linemen are usually pretty good - and - hey - don't they get the best wonderlic's every year?
(and NO, this is not a race thing!)
I'm not sure why the studios haven't clued into the fact that not all players can contribute anything in the booth.
Coaches, btw, are often a mixed bag, because too many take the game too seriously and/or are unwilling to offend anyone.
Best color commentator in recent memory - Troy Aikman
Worst color commentator in recent memory - Bill Walsh
Players turned Good analysts:
Aikman, Jaworski, Tom Jackson, Goose (he knows his limitations and is actually pretty funny), Dilfer, Tasker
As for all QBs make great analysts...please see Fouts, Dan for one of the worst colour people EVER. Second that with Mr. Blowhard Joe Theismann.
-
And to make it worse, the stupid Canadians will probably be rooting for Ricky.
yeah, because there are no Bills fans in Toronto....
try not painting an entire nation with one brush....sheesh. You do realize that Canadians make up a nice chunk of season ticket holders right?

Maybe it's too early to seriously start talking playoffs, but as I look at the standings, I see the Broncos as one of the other undefeated AFC teams at 3-0. It dawned on me that the Ed Hoculi error from last week's Charger's game could have ramifications that effect the Bills should they meet in the playoffs.
I'd rather see The Chargers at 1-1 (they play the Jets Monday night) and Broncos at 2-1 than have the Broncos keeping pace with the Bills.
Wouldn't it just suck if that non-fumble call by Hoculi cost the Bills a home playoff game?
In the long run, the Bills may have to prove they're deserving of a higher ranking by winning in Denver in December.
Denver = amazing offense = just as amazingly bad defense.
I mean, they are one bad Hochuli call and a Elf Grammatica missed field goal from being 1-2 and in both games they jumped out with a 21 point lead only to almost lose. When teams start to keep the offense at bay, the Broncos are in trouble because that defense can't stop a JV team.

I hate to say this, but ya gotta hand it to Ricky Williams. Brown had a long TD run where he took the direct snap and ran what looked like an option play. The stoner came around from left to right, they faked the handoff to Williams, Brown takes off, breaks through the right side of the line, gets into the secondary, and is hauling ass toward the end zone. Vrabel was essentially the only person still giving chase. After faking the handoff, Willams came around the corner, saw that Brown broke loose, went flying down the field and put a great block on Vrabel. Pretty impressive.
Friends of mine around Miami keep telling me how weird it is that Williams is playing like a man who actually loves football this year. We came into camp in the best shape of his life, he played great during the pre-season and saved his job when everyone wrote him in as a definite camp cut and now he's going out every week and playing hard, making blocks and breaking tackles.
Must have found some new weed out there that inspires you or something....wonder if I can get some....

"We hate to put everybody on the edge of their seats, but we just try to make good television out there," Bills tackle Langston Walker said.
Oh Langston...always a comedian....
-
Fouts was not good today....then maybe he's never that good anyway.
He should stick to shilling hair colouring products for his beard...
-
What bothered me a bit more was Fouts continually saying Buffalo should play for the Field Goal on the drive that got the Bills to within 2 points at 23-21. Thank God they went for the score......
Now you know why Fouts never got a SB ring....
Yeah, I'm going there.
-
Anyone who even thinks he deserves big money should remember these 1st 2 games. The guy sucked bad today.
Anyone who thinks he should be amazing right now should remember these ARE HIS 1st 2 GAMES. Yes, he held out, and yes he shouldn't have but he will find his form soon.
And before posting retarded comments, you might want to watch his protection for the last three TE drives. No one got close to Edwards because of how well the line held up INCLUDING Peters.
-
and he wanted a new contact?
I see, we're running him out of town now? I guess with Youbouty and Reed playing great we need a new whipping boy....
-
Can't remember who was calling the game with Dan Fouts but they were attrocious at times with their love of JaMarcus Russell. And when he threw the TD to Higgns, idiot play-by-play guy said: "and that ends the game" or something to that effect. He didn't say "should" or "could" he said it with finality.
Good to see our Bills made him eat crow on national TV.
-
The long TD was a fluke play - something that happens every once in a while.
If we played offense the way we did in the 4th, this game wouldn't have been close. The turnovers kept their offense in it.
Agreed! Even with 7 minutes left, I thought we could still win it. Oakland was never threatening, they just benefitted from the field position they were getting, a BS interception, fumbles and a fluke slant that caught the D napping.
-
I couldn't hear the explanation the ref gave as everyone in the house was cursing up a storm. What was it? Sure looked like they both had it with them both on the ground and ties go to the WR, or so I thought.
They came up with some bullsh!t call that Evans was bobbling the ball as he hit the ground (clearly he wasn't) so it wasn't simultaneous possession. IMO, the refs botched that one MAJORLY.
-
Especially if the game is within reach...and 15 points was well within reach with the weapons they have. That sounds like a clear-cut "we give up" statement from the fans.
Hey! They were just trying to get home in time to see the end of the Giants game...
-
what was the point of this? On top of being senseless - you needed to bump this 8 minutes later?
So, Josh Reed had a good game today and that means he played well 2 years ago.
Whatever... argue with yourself.
Thank you SDS.
How about we just enjoy the amazing victory instead of coming on here and trying to stroke your e-penis about how smart you are?
Reed is obviously a good player to be in the NFL and be slotted at #2. Sheesh.
-
Yeah, but put the both a them in the same movie and what's that get ya?
I'd pay to see a buddy-cop film starring Flutie and Kelly....

You either have a very small head, or very large arms.

The Vikings seem to have hit the panic button and replaced starting QB Tarvaris Jackson with 37 year old veteran Gus Frerotte.
Now, don't get me wrong, Jackson has had an awful early career and there are A LOT of QBs I'd start over him, but Frerotte is not one of them. He was simply horrid last year replacing an injured Marc Bulger in St. Louis. In my opinion, if you've got two crappy QBs, might as well stick with the one who's young and has some upside.
I see they are taking a page from the Mike Mularkey Style of Mis-Managing a Young QB book....
Look Tavaris isn't great, but he showed great improvement at the end of last season and this year, they haven't let him throw the ball. When they did open the game he had a good 2nd half against Indy but he couldn't find the end zone. That's not all his fault. It's his play-calling that's hurting him as much if not more than his actual ability.
The Miami Game In Toronto Did Not Phase Me At First

Hey, you met my friends! (The guys from Ottawa). If it weren't for uncertainty at work I would have joined them. Next year, I'm thinking of getting a pair and making the trip down at least 6 times (I usually do about 3-4 a year).
As for Canadian fans of the Bills, almost all want the Bills to stay in Buffalo. We don't want the amazing tailgate atmosphere of the Ralph sterilized by Ted Rogers and his merry band of idiots.
Yes, it sucks that a game is in TO this year, but the Bills have made a fortune from this deal and if these kind of deals help keep the Bills in Buffalo, then we should ALL be for it. Yes, the Bills make money but not near what other teams in the league do. Sadly, this is a business first.
