I'm not going to run off at the mouth foaming saying "I'm done with being a fan" ... it's worse ... I just don't care any more. Yes, I will still watch the games because they're western New York's team and it's what we do and we've we had great memories in the past. Yes, I'll still go to the games because I bought my tickets. Yes, I'll still listen to the radio because I'm still searching for hope. Yes, I'll still read about the team in the Buffalo News because I'm looking for a silver lining in the storm clouds that surround this team. Yes, I'll still post on this board because I like making DC Tom's life miserable. But bottom line is that I don't care any more. Why? A head coach who after proving he isn't good enough with 3 consecutive 7-9 seasons, gets rewarded with a contract extension. Assistant coaches who consistenly fail to develop and improve players. A general manager who is not a football guy and makes decisions based on generating PR and cutting costs. A pro personnel director who consistenly fails to bring in free agents to improve this team. A QB who whether through his own inclination or by coaching, is afraid to throw the ball more than 5 yards. Keeping several players who only play special teams and do not contribute on offense or defense. Going into the season with no depth at many positions. Poor game management and decision making costing wins. No passion from the coach down through the players. Recognizing that some players are inadequate, and making no effort to improve there. Too many players on this team who would fail to make the rosters on most other teams in the league. Being sold "hope" year in and year out, without substantial changes being made. Consistently hiring on the cheap with one failed coach after another. Watching other teams every year rebuild and compete and we fail to improve. More passion from former players than some of the current ones. Hoping to see them lose because I think that it's the only way to make changes that will get us better. An owner who allows all this to happen. Call it "Band Wagon Jumping" if you want, but I am still a Bills fan, and I am still going to watch ... but don't expect me to care anymore. This team just sucks the life out of you. I don't care about winning and losing as much as I do being entertained, and it's not even fun to watch any more. I've been a life long fan, and I still am ... but just don't expect me to care any more. Yes it'll be nice if they win a game, or 2 ... or more ... but until things change, it'll just be a false hope to set you up for more disappointment as it has been year after year ... after year.

Good luck ... right after I posted ... power failure in Amherst

No way ... he'll never get another HC job and he must be smart enough to know that ... he'll ride this pony as long as he can.

Yes and No ... obviously the o-line is young, inexperienced and has injuries ... yes, the line isn't getting it done ... BUT ... against NE and TB when TE had time to throw, except for the long TDs to TO and Lee, it's all dump-offs ... Greg-o knew that last week and the fins knew that yesterday and just camped out on those routes ... it's so much easier to play D when you don't have to worry about the middle of the field and anything deeper than 15 yards along the sides. Maybe some year the light will go on with this guy ... it takes some QBs a few years to get it, but I'm done waiting ... time to move on.

Sadly, this team is a reflective of it's head coach ... gutless.

I just want to give a warning to all TSW posters ... there is a virus out there that will shred your computer if you are post #2429 in a forum. I just want to warn you all. Please do not reply to this post again, because that will put you at 2429 and you are in grave risk of wiping out your computer. No need to thank me ...

Oh course I'm watching ... I'll be at the game too ... I hate what this team is, but I'm still a fan of the Bills and hope that someday it will improve ...someday

I bought the whole ... he doesn't have receivers ... he's young ... yada yada yada ... Flacco, Ryan, Sanchez are young ... they can do it ... TE never will ...

Remember the good old days when the Bills used to have come from behind victories? ahhh memories...

You had me at field!

LOL

He just saved a whole lot of money by switching to Geico

He played well against Miami and TB (but TB is awful) ... but he's in freefall now and there's no telling how much further he has til he bottoms out.

Sorry Steely ... you're right ... uncalled for ... you've already run away with that one ... I stand corrected.

I'm done with TE ... He's not a franchise QB ... he's a game manager at best and right now he is regressing and is a train wreck. We're stuck for now, but time to keep looking in the offseason.

No ... sorry gringo ... DC Tom has run away with that one ... try battling with Steely for the title of "Techno-Challenged"

Welcome back dib ...

Plus we're quick to put starters on IR to free up a roster spot so we can keep players who are only STers (McIntyre, Wendling, Corto, etc ...)

He said Dick ... heh heh ... heh heh Shut up Beavis!

I do ... and I look nothing like that in it ... jerkass!

That's news to me ...

Yes, though DJ doesn't know yet, so Gruden will be in disquise ... here is a pict of him today at practice so you know what to look for on sunday.

Thanks Wood ... you're awesome!

Boooooooooooooo
