I have never been to Duff, but I thought the Anchor Bar wings were "OK". I too like the wings from LaNova, I order some every time I come into town for the games.

Given it was (a) a scrimmage (b) the first exposure to different colored jerseys as a starter © at Lambeau field (d) in front of 62000 rabid almost exclusive Packer fans (d) in an atmosphere that was playoff like (for example, Favre got a standing ovation for his image simply hitting the replay board) (e) a scrimmage (f) one week into the pre season (g) on the road (h) at the home field of his boyhood idol.....
JP did exceptionally well. Anyone that thinks JP did poorly or terrible is way too pessimistic and border line sarcastic. Given all variables JP did better than most; he was set up for failure yet responded favorably. Can/ought he get better? absolutely. But, think about the situation and really evaluate what he did on the field - then the only conclusion that can be drawn is that JP looked very good.
Like some of us here, I was there for all 4+ hours and it was a great time, overall. JP looked normal out there, not out of his element at all. By the way, our OL is going to be nasty this year. Opposing defenses will dread when we run the ball - especially by the time the third quarter rolls around.
Perfect, very good post. Given all what you mentioned above, he did just fine. And we are not asking JP to be Kelly or Manning out of the gate. Given the makeup of our entire team, if he could be a Trent Delfur (spelling), or Delhumme (spelling), I would be pleased. Manage the game, don't take un-needed risk, take care of the football, run if you have too. The man can throw for 210 yards a game, run for 40, and as long as he does not pull a Drew and turn the ball over at just the wrong time, the Bills will be more than fine this year.

Let's see then...
Analysts are saying he looked bad.
Packers fans are saying he looked bad.
Jets fans are saying he looked bad.
Some Bills fans are saying he looked bad.
But all of those people are wrong, and only the Bills fans that say he looked great are correct. Rose colored glasses, perhaps?
Again, we havn't even played a preseason game so there's LOTS of room for improvement. But if we were starting the season tomorrow, with JPL under center, I'd be scared.

Not all analysts are saying he looked bad, and no one gives a sh$$ about what the packer or jets fans think. I watched last night he looked fine. Not bad, not great just fine. Had a few good passes, had a few bad ones. Made the right decision most of the time, except that one in the red zone. He did this with about a week or so of camp, and in front of 62,000 fans, most of which were against him. And unlike our other QBs he was playing agaist the 1st string defense of a team that made it to the playoffs last year.
Is holcomb better than JP at this point?...HE BETTER BE, he's a vet. If he is not, then TD really screwed up by signing KH. But JP will be better than Holcomb in time. Remember, this is the same JP that a lot people said looked great last year in preseason!! What he do, get worst? Lighten up people, JP will be fine. The more playing time he gets, the better he will become.
And when he starts on opening day, (and he will be starting), it will be with a full training camp and preseason under his belt, a gameplan tailored made for the defense he is facing, and the backing of any Bills fan with a brain in his or her head. The man will be fine....RELAX

Lets see, Gates open at 5:00, practice starts and 7:00 pm. Not much else in the letter. Does not say anything about parking

No problem, glad to see you are going and report back please. If anyone else needs tickets, contact me.

No, even Pats trolls want no part of this game. They know what happen. The thing that really makes this game stand out, is that it was more than one unbelieveable bad call that cost the Bills the game. It is rare when you have two calls at the end of a game, each (had they not been called), would have ended the game. This is different from the tuck rule game or the phantom head in the end-zone Jets game. The refs had to make two mistakes just to make the first bad call, (his feet were inbounds AND he had enough yards for the 1st down). Add to that a PI call on a Hail Mary that I have never seen called before or after that game.
I must say I will have to take a shot of Jack D. just to get this thread out of my mind tonight. I remember being in total shock after watching this game. And since then, I have never seen a string of events (or bad calls if you will), that come close to matching what happen in that game. OK, now where's that Jack!!

And if he looked great, someone wound be moaning about the defense!!! Oh my, a second year QB, (really a rookie), is beating the crap out of our defense...oh where oh where is Pat W. we're doooomed!!
Relax boys and girls or you'll never make it to preseason...

Deal is for one year, at the franchise tag price. HOWEVER, it includes a no trade clause and a guarentee that the seahawks will not tag him after this season. Looks like its his last year in Seattle. Also look for big fantasy numbers from him as he has to prove his worth.
Good, that is one less RB the Jags can go after assuming Taylor does not recover fully from his injuries....next up...E. James

He better be!!!

I concur, TH was hurting his own trade value with all that whinning he did in Buffalo, so his agent told him to act nice. If he wants to sign a long term deal with TN or any other team, TH not only has to perform well on the field, but also has to learn to control his mouth.
-
Where did you hear this from? I read a story that said a league source, (whatever that means), said the Jax wanted TH so bad that they "might" have given up a 2nd for him. I do not know who the source was, but I do know what the word "might" means. If the Jax wanted to give up a 2nd for TH, they would have done it. As another poster said, I too belive this is more of a "safe face" comment coming out of thier org.

I have caught the cab from downtown a few times, cost about 30 bucks or so each way. I seem to remember there being a bus that leaves downtown about 90 min. before game time. Actually a number of buses that do that. I think it cost about 8 bucks round trip, but I am not sure they still do that. I did take it once, was not to bad.

I've been to many Bills/Jets games, a Bills/Falcons game and a Bills/Patriots game and have never had any problems whatsoever at any of the stadiums. I'm convinced that the people who do have problems at away games are either poor winners, poor losers or that they just got unlucky and sat next to some drunk idiot.
The biggest problem I've ever had at a game was a RWS...opening day a few years back when the Bills crushed the Pats some drunk idiot that could barely stand up started saying random rude stuff to the people in the section...for no reason whatsoever. His friends tried to keep him in check, but the more they asked him to STFU the more belligerent he became. In fact, I've been to 5 games at Rich Stadium/RWS and I've never seen so much fighting, drunken or rude behavior at any of the away venues. I have a 1 year old boy and, sadly enough, once he's old enough to go to some games I'll feel safer taking him to an away Jets/Bills game than I would taking him to Buffalo.
The only away game I have been to is when the Bills played the Chargers a few years ago. The fans in San Diego are really nice. A few comments here and there, but other thant that, they are really cool.
I have seen fights at RWS, but never in my section (Jim K. Club, section 215). It really is the luck of the draw. You can go to any game, anywhere in the USA and have a good time or a bad time depending on who is sitting near you. This year I will attend then Charger and Saints games. I will be attending both of the with a lot of Bills fans, so everything should be pretty cool.

Anyone see Shaud Williams
in The Stadium Wall Archives

I saw that, that was classy, but I assure you that was the sign of a guy who already knows he is making this team. The battel is between Gates and Lee...not sure who is going to win this one.
