At my house we were glad EJ was coming in too and we weren't kidding. Are you saying EJ did not play well on those 2 plays? I would love to see Hotrod drop back, not hold the ball, and make a nice pass for 10 yards sometime.

Firing the Ryan Twins now would feel good for a few weeks. Then we'd have an interim coach. Then when we go to look for a coach next year, who in their right mind would work for a team that fires it's coach after 18 games? We'd end up with someone like Chan Gailey who nobody else wanted. Play it out and go from there. Hopefully we win 6 or 7 games and it doesn't look like such a bad spot for a new coach to come to.

I disagree. We have Gillislee. Finally we get him into the game Thursday and he scores a TD on a great play. Actually in the last month of the season last year he provided this role well when Karlos would get his weekly injury. I believe he had pretty much passed up Karlos on the depth chart anyway. Boggles my mind why he hadn't got some carries this year. Seems Roman decided that McCoy would get ALL the carries.

Shirley you can't be serious. I guess if you're including the safeties then they aren't horrible. But Gilmore is probably one of the worst tacklers I've ever seen. And Darby is not a whole lot better.

When Rex did blitz in the first couple of series Fitz burned him. Happened several times. Perhaps this played into that decision?

This reminds me a lot of Dick firing Turk the week before the season and promoting Van Pelt. Hopefully it works better. Seems like the Raisins rolled on after the fired Cam.

Unless we have a lot more (by design) broken plays. Seahawks make a living out of this. It's what Hotrod is good at. Evidently Salas is good at it too. Own it and ride it. Do what you do do well.

This is big problem I have with Rex and Hotrod. He gets hurt and wants to stay in even though he shouldn't and Rex sends him back in. Last year vs NE he couldn't even throw and he went back in. From seeing his demeanor on the sidelines last night it looked like he needed more time but Rex sent him out there. We should have let EJ finish the series and then re evaluate IMHO.

This is how we ended up with Coach Moron as well.

Y'all just now noticing this? Gilmore sucks at tackling and has ever since he's been a Bill. Instead making a sure tackle, he dives at their feet and hopes they trip over him. Who does he think he is, Dion "They don't pay me to tackle" Sanders?

I swear, sometimes it looks to me like the D lines up in the Flex Defense on some plays.

In one of Jets vs Bills games last year Fitz went long on the first 3 plays. Not a Bill anymore though. I also remember a game from the 70s nowhere Jaws threw a bomb for a TD on the first play against the Cowboys. Eagles ended up losing that game likee 24-7. Heck I have a hard enough time trying to remember the first play in the second quarter, much less the last 20 years ...

Tackling is also part of playing CB. Darby missed one in the first half that would have been a short gain into a long one. Just dove at the guy's feet or something.

Seems about time for Trump to make another Energizer comment.

In Fitz'career he has QBed his teams to 2 come from behind 4th quarter wins vs. the Patsies**. How many QBs can say that?

So are 14 other teams in the league after them and us. Heck, our fans, and the Jets fans, are planning on losing Thursday night.

Flutie

The chick next to her was holding her up until the van arrived. Locked arms with her and is supporting her.

Once again, < 4:00 to play and a TD or FG needed to win and Hotrod lays an egg. Twice.

America, Love it, or Leave it.

We're significantly better at RB with McCoy, Bush, Jonathon Williams, and Gillislee.

They should have gone with The Red Dog plan. Raise everyone's taxes a few percent, and the the government buys a basic health plan for everyone. Everybody is insured and can be treated it they need it. Then healthy people would be bought in too. It would be the largest pool in the world. And the government could negotiate for price spurring competition. If you want more extensive coverage, you can buy it.

The defense needs to be better than last year. The offense can do a little better than last year. However,Hotrod has to come through late to get us a few wins. Had he done that last year and won 1/2 of the 2 Patsies games (we had a chance late in both) or Philly or Washington instead of laying eggs, we would have been in. We're close. All the true franchise guys come up big late to win a couple each year. If we get that, and better D, we're in.

I have no problem with resigning Gilmore. However, I do with at this point, playing for next year. If Lawson at LB gives us a better chance for playoffs this year, you go with him and worry about next year next year for the most part. We drafted Darby and I think he's even better than Gilmore. We also signed Graham. Gilmore is not the last good CB out there. He's not worth cutting guys this year to help us sign him next year IMHO. However, I just think Rex got tired of watching Manny crash in from the outside and then get run around for TDs and big gains. Dream on about the "hometown discount".

I'm still surprised we cut Little. He looked like the best WR we had in camp that played. He got 2 TDs ripped off by refs in PS. The nullified one vs Washington was studly. Maybe we can get him back once Goodwin is out.
