The kneel down should be eliminated or take your chances getting hit.
Football coaches are very defensive people...they play not to make mistakes
Play for 60 minutes or GTFO. Especially since the score is less than 8 points. Fumbles do occur and have..
The Giants lost because of Joe Pisarcik fumble on last play of the game...I believe in 1977.

Darryl Talley is the single best, and most complete outside linebacker I've ever seen. He was all at once brilliant, vicious, intuitive, and instinctive.
He was the reason I started playing football, and the reason Lawrence Taylor will never be number 56 in my heart and memory.
He is an obvious Hall of Famer, Bruce Smith being the only player on that 'D' more consistent and imposing.
Thanks for taking the time to answer a few questions, Darryl.
You're the very, best.
I echo this statement.
Darryl was the heart and inspriation for our D for many years.
This team needs a leader like this...someone who will not let a team-mate coast..., many of his teammates were afraid of being challenged by Darryl...
Talley inspired Bruce every game.
Darryl always helped a teammate up, and what was always noticeable, was on the sidelines cheering for the offense, rarley sitting down, always with his helmut ready to jump on the field. He would have played O line if they needed him.
Smart, savey, tough, and a great teammate.
My favorite player of all time.
The only player on this team that comes close is Kyle Williams...but his position does not allow him to be as influencial to his mates.

The Chiefs and the Bills are almost dead even teams in my opinion. A loss Sunday to the Chiefs have the Bills travelling to Cleveland next week. I know almost everyone here has us penciled in for a win against the Browns. But at Cleveland, with the defense that the Browns have, Believe me that is not a sure thing. A loss today, even with a win next week, then come the Patriots and the 49'ers, a loss today and we could have 0-5 starring us in the face.
Win today, and next week, even the most diehard of us, the best we can hope for is 2-3. Lose today and kiss any playoff hopes goodbye!
I agree 100%.....today we see potentially a 9-7 team or 4-12 team.....which will they be.
So far I have seen a team with little intensity. I am not sure if the team has leadership. If they are waiting for Mario to deliver leadership, he will not. He has never been a leader...anywhere he has been.
I expect Kyle Williams to step up and slap a few helmuts today. Watch the sidelines today...you will see if any leadership comes out.
OH HOW WE MISS A "DARRYL TALLEY"
-
He is just not like the rest of us
if you think he was bad this week wait until deer hunting season, he will be too busy to even show up.
opps, maybe he didn't show up this week either....
How I wish we had a Darryl Talley on this team?
As self serving and egotistical as Bruuuuuce was....he NEVER failed to show and have an impact.
-
was an alarming lack of timing and co-ordination throughout our offense.
These guys did not have it together and were not ready to play pro ball by any stretch of the imagination, and I'm worried that this is not something that you can address in just one week.
I can agree with this but the issue of intensity and being ready for a game I also saw.
4 pre season games and the team was not up for any of them
Today the Jets were far more intense...in every area.
This team looks a lot like Jauron coached teams...all head and no guts
-
mcgee is fine and will practice monday... smith is versatile and allows us to keep extra players a certain spots.
wtf
WTF
Smith can't play any of the positions he is slotted for...is he a receiver or QB, or kick returner....IMHO he has never demonsxtrated ability to be a success in any of those spots. How would you like to see him a game as QB?
And McGee is not ready, he is potentially ready, as he has been since July.
-
Brad Smith and McGee.
Smith is neither a QB or receiver of any note. He has not been a successful position player...ever, and he is injured so the excuse for back up QB is not reasonable. Keeping Easley or any of the other wideouts for kick returning etc would make far more sense. We now have 4 wideouts, and even a pick up will not help much with the so called very complicated offense that Chan has....remember the excuses for Graham and Travaris Jackson having to need time to learn the O that Fitz has now seen for 3 years
And McGee....hurt every week it seems, is also limping permanently and may not be ready to play in game one (and if he does it may only be for a few plays before he gets hurt again). With the injury to Brooks we now have 4 Corners left and need to use one for kick returns ( either Rogers or Mckelvin), which exposes them.
Seems to me we have left ourselves extremely exposed at 2 speed positions in order to keep Potter.
Then again maybe we overestimated the talent on this team and all those players cut are not really NFL players.
-
I wish I could tell you what I know about him. Great Ref, scumbag otherwise.
Assasinate him why don't you.
No guts to talk but want to brag how in the know you are.
Makes you look small and pitiful.
A secret is worthless unless you can tell right....trade in gossip must be your specialty.
-
Russell Wilson has not proved anything yet. Remember JP Losman!!!!!!! How many QB's have started to look OK for 5 or 6 games and then died.Colt McCoy etc. Ryan Fitz.....7 games and a new contract. Rob JohnsonI mean we could have had Russell Wilson? Check out this article on NFL Draft Zone and who would you have rather had?
The Bills may have reached for Dareus...we could have traded down 3 spots and still got him ( for that Nix should be fired I assume based on your thoughts)....give up this rediculous argument...
-
u mad?
no, his mommy forgot to put his lunch in his transformers lunchpail

No one except maybe Jimbo, defined those great teams more than Talley.
Unselfish, tough, mean, skilled, and always involved.
What I remember most about Darryl, he never sat down. When the Defense was off the field he stood on the sidlines cheering the offense. Encouraging them each play. Maybe even intimidating them.
I heard that at half time during the "Comeback" Darryl addressed the team and said if you don't think we can win this game then stay the F??? in the lockeroom.
Sometimes I think he would make a great coach.

I HATED the fact that college didn't have a playoff. I've always thought it was completely stupid how the figured a national champion and felt I'd become a much bigger fan of college ball with a playoff system in place. That being said, clearly this is not a perfect solution, but it's a step in the right direction and I'm thrilled with the news. I'd much rather be wrong about the 5th place team than I would the 3rd place one...this gets us one step closer to truly deciding it on the field instead of letting some computer nerd figure out the best "formula". I don't really like that they're waiting until 2014, especially since they're using the existing bowl structure...don't see why they can't start it next year. Maybe in 2026 they can finally go to an 8-team playoff
What good is any playoff, or bowl game for that matter that takes place 8 weeks after their last season game.
Always thought that everyone over hyped bowl games now playoffs.
It is all about which coach can get his team back into the mood to play...what a waste of time. The games should be played in early Dec, the he?? with school, these guys are semi pro anyway
-
Have any of you actually been to a game with Jauron as coach.
He is most passive, gutless coach the Bills have ever had.
He showed no passion, no leadership, no willingness to defend his players.
He kissed the a?? of every official. Marv would have roasted them.
Jauron never gambled unless the full 75,000 people knew that it was coming.
His players left the field with heads down and passive and came out uninspired.
The best you can say about Jauron is he was a gentle man and consistent.
At first they said he was a players coach...except for those players who wanted to win.
then he wimped out.
To compare Gailly to Jauron and suggest they are even in the same league is nuts.

I was in the stadium, sitting ( mostly standing) in section D (scoreboard endzone on the south west corner)behind a young Oiler fan and his girl friend who left the game early.
Great Day I will never forget.

NO NO NO NO NO
He has been the definition of LOSER his entire career.

Maybin is a usless piece of sh??
and if it makes you feel better you are stupid.
Just trying to help.

Let us pray...and hope the injury bug takes a holiday this season...
I do not see this as an injury bug, it is the residual effect of roids...we all know that, it is common with all athletes who over did it in the roid era.

I went to my first Arena football game last night watching Georgia vs Cleveland. The game is a little different, but overall it was a good time. I can't believe these guys only get a few hundred dollars for what they do. They were hitting pretty hard out there.
Switch that, I can't believe they are so stupid to do what they do for a few hundred dollars. They hit pretty hard because they have been hit pretty hard tooooooooo many times....duh
-
This free agent season is the last time Jackson will be famous.
He is soooooo over rated, and winer and never plays hard.
He may about to get rich, but many other like him have disappeared too...any one remember a certain guard named Derrick...Jackson is in the same boat. IMHO
-
Wire needs 10 unconventional kicks to the head for his attempt to steal the spotlight for publicity. If he was so conlicted or guilty, he hasn't breathed a word about it until his complely unrelated book came out.
Wire was a sucky kind of guy when he was here....into meditation etc.
Remember when Williams told the press that we would get to the QB by using numbers....we never suspected it was dollars not players
hahaha

3 yeras ago I dropped my seasons tickets after 17 years dueto Jauron and the organizations inability to actually make decent decisions.
Now as I put away my Bills tree ornaments, Bills Nutcraker statue, the minature Bills football that has hung from our tree for many years the stuffed Bills doll that has sat under the tree since the kids were small, I now know these symbols of our relationship with the Bills have lost their luster and passion.
Next year I fear that I will not even want to put them on the tree and around the house. The door knocker on our front door may have to go as well. Hard to be passionate about players and an organization who do not care. I actually believe that many of us fans put more passion and love into the Bills than Ralph.
Time for me to move farther away from the team.
Good Luck

He is lucky he hit 1004 yds and not 999 before being a jerk again.
I think he and his agent pulled this off so the Bills would not resign him or fanchise him.
They have become famous for dumping people for non football reasons.
Ndext to go is Drayton Florence for being upset at Gaily for the benching....typical blame the coach for a players bad performance.
-
he retired 3 years ago, he just failed to mention it as long as people were prepared to pay him.

In watching Fitz this season, we all know that in the early part of the season he could make all the throws..
Now he seems to struggle with anything more than 10 yards, no zip, thrown hails all the time.
I think he has Flutieitis. Doug could do it for 1 or 2 games but the rigors of taking 80% of the snaps each week in practice was wearing on his arm and his performance then dropped.
Fitz may have the same strength problems. Jimbo late in his career also had them
The only cure is rest.

Are you serious?????
He is the most uninspired, milk-toast football headcoach imaginable.
He is the most average person, in everyway...plays the averages, predicable, never holds a player responsible, and never expects the best out of anyone. A players coach because they can coast.
