  1. Tony Sparano was able to do it once with an innovative offensive idea that totally caught them off guard and they won the division that year. So it's not like it can't be done. I hate this whole whiny thing that we can't win until NE implodes.
  2. The whole time NE has been on a tear we've gone 9-7 3 times. 8-8 twice and losing records the rest of the years. And in at least 3 of those years we split with them. So I don't think this has a whole lot to do with our lack of playoff experience. Winning the division perhaps, but making the playoffs, I think not.
  3. Tom Brady is JAG and no one gave a ***** about him until the Cheaters came calling, Billy Bellyache, the greatest football mind since Amos Alonzo Stagg (or so I hear) says he IS good enough. Who am I supposed to believe, him, or Doc?
  4. As a point of reference, the Fish under Gase made the playoffs in year 1 and Gase was canned after year 3 with a .500 record.
  5. It was 12-6 after 3 quarters. We were in it until you know who threw you know what.
  6. Is this thing on? I agree. Losing is for losers.
  7. I'm sorry but this is the most pessimistic defeatist attitude of all on TBD. We need to build up a team to beat them (the Giants did). Beating them in their crib might be tough due to all the cheating they do there (cutting out headsets/radio broadcast in headsets/bugged locker room/spy cameras/deflated footballs etc.). But we should be able to at home. Even so, we don't even have to beat them to make the playoffs and even the division if we win enough of our other games. Besides, to me the real difference is Bill Bellyache. If Tommy retires and Bill does not, the train keeps rolling. He's 13-6 in games with Cassel, Jimmy, and Brissett. If Bill retires, things could change. but I'm not willing to wait. Go BILLS !! This seems to support the Bill Parcells' theory. "The coach that is rebuilding is rebuilding for the next coach that comes in."
  8. Because you need a good backup. Bills fans of all people should know this. Frank and Hostettler. Eagles know it too. Foles.
  9. Yes, but it is a disturbing trend which continues to this day was kindof my point. Back then we dumped a guy that was LT on SB team last year back then and with this group we dumped more guys that are on SB teams. Again, how can these winning teams win with these guys when we decided they aren't good enough or cost too much (yet the other guys can pay them)? We seem to keep making the same mistakes. In 2014 - 2016 we had 3 WRs (Watkins, Woods, Hogan) on our squad that will be playing in the conference championship game this weekend and our WR squad is lame. We also had Harvin. We also had a top 1/3 of the league in scoring offense. This team will never have a good offense or a good QB until we get serious about the WR (and TE) position. Hoping that happens this off season.
  10. Dude looks like a boy band singer.
  11. agree to disagree. as I see it, Sammy is a stallion. You need stallions to win. i wouldn't mind dumping him if we had someone better or could get someone better. 2 years later and we're still waiting. We still don't have anyone 1/2 as good even if Sammy only plays 8 games per. i don't get this attitude that if a dude's not Jerry Rice we'd rather just suck along with the likes of Deonte Thompson, McKenzie, Zay, Felton, and Ray Ray. Which one of these guys or any Bills WR the last 2 years start for any of the team that played this weekend? How many would even make their taxi squad? Sammy was the second most productive WR on a team that advanced to AFC Championship game today. Top guy had 10 more yards. But he's not good enough for the Bills? OK.
  12. if only we could have be at the 3-13 Raiders the following week ...
  13. if we draft a CB at #9 I'm going to throw a brick through my TV. i would argue that as long as we have Clay we are in DIRE NEED of a TE. we lost a game because he flubbed a catch in the EZ this year and last year, 1/2 of Hotrod's picks bounced off of Clay's hands. One in the EZ. ENOUGH ALREADY.
  14. As i recall, our defense was historically bad under Chan Gailey/Dave Wannstedt. Within a few years of signing Mario, we were the 4th best Defense in the NFL giving up 18.1 per game. Then Rex arrived and mesed everything up. I think Mario contributed his fair share in making that happen. That DLine with Mario, Kyle, Jerry, and Mr. Big Stuff was STOUT. They could even make Rodgers look silly
  15. If we're talking Bills in general (like I am) there's Jason Peters.
  16. Yet somehow the coaches that can get their teams to the playoffs seem to think they're good enough to have on their team(s). Sammy also had a bunch of nice catches. 6 catches for 62 yards on 8 targets in a playoff game ain't too shabby. 10 less yards than Tyreek Hill on 5 less targets.
  17. My bottom line is still in the hunt going into week 17. Anything less and seats get extremely hot if in fact they have seats left at all.
  18. If I had the Morgan Freeman "He's right you know" meme I'd post it here.
  19. Did you forget 2016 R candidates Carly Fiorina, Ben Carson, and Ted Cruz?
  20. In my state, legal weed doesn't have seeds. So, not a problem. Did the legal weed you used to get have seeds?
  21. if I'm the Eagles i go with Foles and park Wentz on the bench. He has 2 or 3 years left on his contract, Is relatively cheap, and it's good to have a good backup.
  22. You have to have stallions to win i the NFL. the teams playing this weekend have them. We don't. You can't do it with high motor lunch pale process believers. I would suspect we at least try very hard to get a few top notch FAs at WR, OL, and TE. I hope we don't trade down. The lower you go the longer the odds on landing said stallions. I'm hoping for a great off season. Beane needs to produce.
  23. I see your point. When I think of the nanny-state I think of the government telling you can't do something and punishing you for it if you do because they say its bad for you. They removed locking you up for it. May be over regulated. But I see it as an improvement. No different than alcohol ? really. It's taxed. When you go to the store it's labeled as to alcohol ? by content and you can count on if it says it is 40 oz it is 40 oz. You're not gonna walk out with 40 proof wood alcohol. You'll see when it becomes legal in NY.
  24. i will a acknowledge that women were the driving force behind prohibition and a woman was even in charge of it once passed, but I won't go that far LOL.
