  1. I think this is really cool. I expect it to have ZERO effect on the results however. Hillary fans are too dyed in the wool. You know, Colin Powell did it too (WWCPD) and she's not Trump. And, she has an ace in the hole. She can always throw Huma under the bus if she has to.
  2. Too bad the Cubs aren't playing the Blue Jay's. Marv has experience winning Championships there.
  3. Everybody else does it is always great excuse. My 2nd grade teacher never bought it. Luckily for Hillary though, American voters do. W is a Hillary supporter after all
  4. We need a new TBD Whipping Boy. We got EJ, but when the guy doesn't even play, it's just not he same.
  5. Just to put things in perspective, we were .583 in games with Kyle Orton under center.
  6. Ok, 2 then. Carolina and Chicago at Soldier Field. And, before you say it was Fred, EJ completed a 3rd an 10 to Mike Williams the play before that. Hotrod has how many again? How is he on 3rd down late? I'm not saying EJ is better. And, I love Hotrod's big winning margins. Obviously crunch time is his weakness. EJ has had success with this twice. You bring in a specialist at RB on the goal line and a pass rusher on 3rd down. Just because coaches have always done it this way does not necessarily mean it's right. Used to be having the QB in the shotgun was considered a really dumb idea too .
  7. Bring the team from behind late to win. Isn't that what we're talking about here?
  8. If been thinking of this as well. In EJ's 16 games HE HAS DONE IT 3 or 4 times. In 21 games, Hotrod had done it ZERO times although been given plenty of opportunities. Some guys are good at this like Roger Staubach or Jim Kelly (not saying EJ is near as good as either of these HOFers). Some guys aren't like Trent and Hotrod. In the 2nd Patsies** game last year when Hotrod couldn't even throw but still went back in I was hoping they'd put EJ in to give it a try. Be honest, when behind with <2:00 to play, who feels confident Hotrod can make get us a score to retake the lead or tie? Why not try it? What have we got to lose? Once we're behind late with Hotrod, we're toast anyway. Why keep beating our head against the wall?
  9. Yeah, we know they like to mess with us to get us off our game, so we're going to let them suck us into worrying about this stuff before the game instead, you know, the game. Brilliant! Did anyone else LOL about Gilmore's tough guy talk?
  10. If so, Kyle Orton is our best QB in the last 13 years. I really don't get this disparaging talk about Alex Smith. The dude is a great QB. I'd love to have him QB of the Bills. I like Hotrod, but I wouldn't give this a second thought to trading them. 1/2 a New York heartbeat.
  11. I've a?ways said there is an element of Captain. check down in Hotrod's game. Luitenant Checkdown.
  12. I'm agreeing with this. Our offense has been putting up the points. Hotrod ain't gonna win it late, so work with what ya got. During our win streak the plan was to jump on 'em early and not let them catch up with a strong D and ball control and a few more points. This week it backfired on us. Oh well, we'll get 'em this week. We are now where I think Whaley and Rex talked about when they got here. We are in QB purgatory with no end in sight really. So instead of getting some schmuck and let him pass 30+ times and game and lose like we did with Fitz and EJ and Trent and JP (square peg), we'll get a QB that can take care of the football, have a strong running game and a monster D and try to win that way. Good strategy since good QBs are so hard to fine. We'e won more than we've lost. Roll with Hotrod who is better than a lot of QBs we've had until can draft or develop or trade for a real QB. I see us at a stage the Saints were around 2004. They had a good team with no good QB. Then they got Blue Drees and the rest is history. If we're vigilant which obviously Doug is, we'll find our man eventually. In the mean time, let's win some gaimes!
  13. Yes, but it was Hotrod who didn't see O'Leary on 3rd down 10 yards in front of him wide open in the 4th quarter in Fish territory OR see another open WR open on 3rd the next drive but instead patted the football And took off running for a sack. Of course the D deserves blame as does ALynn for abandoning the run. However Hotrod doesn't get a pass because everyone else messed up too. It was a team loss. Everyone shares blame, even Hotrod even if he didn't turn the football over.
  14. Send Doug down to Qiuckee Mart to pick one up. I think they're next to the watermelon bubble gum.
  15. I can remember scrubs like Hogan and Goodwin coming through when Kyle Orton was our QB.
  16. I don't know, but I suspect the Fish doesn't want to let Goff in because he believes throwing young QBs in to play as rookies stunts their development. Think of EJ and JP for example. 2 1st round picks we rushed in to start only to fail miserably. He has experience with this too with Jake Locker. Actually, I think it's a good plan. Salas catching a bomb on a scramble drill vs the Jets doesn't count?
  17. Would a better TE have helped Hotrod seeing him 10 yards in front of him all by his lonesome on 3rd and short? Would a better WR have allowed Hotrod to throw a catchable pass on the last play? It was a team loss, but blaming Hotrod's miserable 4th quarter performance on the other guys is a lame excuse IMHO. Hotrod had his chances, but sadly did not come through (again).
  18. Russell Wilson has one of the best Ds around, yet he leads comebacks on a regular basis, as did the 1990s heyday Bills, and the Cowboys of the 60s-80s. You gotta have a good D, but you also gotta have a QB that doesn't lay eggs when down late. This is a real problem. Pretty much same thing happened vs Raisins. And a bunch last year. Lack of D or no weapons did not prevent Hotrod from seeing O'Leary 10 yards in front of him on 3rd down all by his lonesome. A first there might have a big impact on the game ...
  19. I wish he was Alex Smith.
  20. As did we.
  21. I suspect they'd probably have the same luck with it as we do at these types of things. That's why I want to let them handle this one. They didn't fare any better in Afghanistan than we have so far (15 years and counting ) ...
  22. Why can't we just let the Russians handle this one?
  23. This is my go to method of watching football, including Bills games.
