Ahh, the refs have decided to be a big factor in this game. Both teams getting called for everything.

yeah, 2nd and 7 inside the 10 they run a designed play to Chandler instead of pounding the rock vs. a D that struggles against it.

It's Hackett ball. Prove that you can go against a team's strength.

Whether he was looking in the backfield on that particular play or not is irrelevant. I'm talking about his responsibilities in general. He is NEVER supposed to change what he's doing based on mistakes his teammates make in coverage. He is supposed to stick to his responsibilities and have faith that his teammates will do the same.

Vick quite in the last game. I tweeted to my brother when I saw Vick get up with that "limp" that he wanted out of the game. I guess Rex saw the same thing because next series Geno was in. After the game Vick's limp was mysteriously gone and now he's benched.

[quote name=Why So Serious?' timestamp='1416939859' post='3349156] These articles are usually followed by Jets' Rex Ryan fired during season About 2 weeks after they go up. Yeah, but that's usually after the owner gives assurances that the coach isn't going to be fired.

My favorite play of the game was the WR screen to Gragg while Sammy blocks for him. If this isn't a OC outsmarting himself I don't know what is. Then again, after watching Gragg blow the easy block that would have gotten Freddie into the endzone earlier in the game I suppose they did use the better of the two blockers. All that being said overall it was a solid game plan by the Bills and while they certainly weren't perfect it's hard to fault much in a blow out win.

You keep saying this and it's simply wrong. Do you really think that Gilmore is supposed to run with his man, keeping track of him while keeping an eye in the backfield towards the ball AND look up field and see where his safety is? No, he's supposed to play his role and believe that his teammates will do their jobs.

Agreed. They need all the work they can get.

The first time they were playing zone. It's not always man coverage...

I'm just thankful we get to play them twice a year.

​Every time Gilmore allows a catch someone says the above. It's pretty hilarious. Apparently he shouldn't ever allow one.

Yeah, both of those were nice.

Does Orton ever throw an easy catch? Every pass has to be an amazing catch or it's incomplete. And then he looks mad when it's not caught.

Isn't that why you should dislike someone? He acts like a little douche-bag and people dislike him. Go figure.

Looked like he was playing zone and was passing him off to Williams. Can't really tell from the telecast though.

Unless your name is Marcus Allen.

How exactly with this offense should they be "crushing" them? The O can't score hence, there is no chance of "crushing." I have no clue what game some of you watch.

When you get quality QB play you don't have to be perfect.

How come EJ gets all the flack for struggling yet Orton seems to get a pass because of Hackett, the OL, WR drops, horrible TEs, etc. EJ had to work with all those things as well and did it with a small amount of experience to fall back on. Hell, he had a worse OL as he didn't have Urbik in there and Henderson was a completely raw rookie who at least now has a half a season's worth of experience. It's hilarious how people have all kinds of patience for Orton's struggles yet they have none for EJ. This is completely backwards. I have a whole hell of a lot more patience for the young QB learning on the job than for the vet. And who the hell cares about passing yards, I care about points. And with the exception of the 6 turnover aided Jets' game Orton leading the offense isn't putting up more points than the O led by EJ. Right now I don't mind EJ learning from the sidelines but unless there is a drastic change in the coming weeks from this offense I see no reason not to put him back in later in the year.

I'm making peace with the idea that they won't make the playoffs in my lifetime.

I don't want Marrone to go mostly because I don't want Schwartz to go and it's highly unlikely he stays on if a coaching change is made. With the talent on this D the last thing I want is a 3rd defensive system in 3 years. Hackett needs to go if he can't quickly get this offense turned around. I'm tired of the excuses or the "the fans don't see what we see" crap. I do see the exact same thing he sees - an offense that can't put up points. Everything else is just an excuse.

Browns or Steelers. I'd lean towards the Steelers.

Given the 5 hour time difference I'll be watching as quietly as I can from 1:30am-4:30am local time in hopes of not waking my family with angry rants at the TV. I'll be getting a grand total of 3 hours sleep. Ugh. I hate prime time games now that I live in London. Thankfully the Bills don't play too many of them and I'll only be here one more season.
