Or when you drop perfectly good snaps on a punt which essentially results in a turnover.

His leg came free and didn't get stuck in the turf, didn't look that bad to me. Hopefully it's not too bad.

If the game continues to go as it is I can't wait to see what the NY Post comes up with for their back page tomorrow.

I love Geno quite a bit right now.

Unfortunately they don't get to play Geno every week.

This must be what it's like to root for a winning team. No anxiety, no anger, just fun. I miss this.

Every friggin return has an illegal block, I swear. So frustrating.

EJ needs to run today. The Jets get aggressive with their rush and man up on the WRs. He'll have plenty of space to run if he chooses to do so. Do it enough times and it will start to slow that pass rush down.

Hendricks won easily only if you use the old Japan Pride rules where they judged a fight overall. However, that's not how the UFC works. It's done round by round. I'll agree that Hendricks won the rounds he won more decisively than the ones GSP won. He wobbled GSP in the 2nd and cut him up in the 4th with those ground and pound elbows. Those rounds were where all the damage was done. However, he didn't win them by enough to make them 10-8 rounds. GSP clearly won the 3rd and 5th but he didn't bust Hendricks up in the process - but he still won them. Really, the problem people have is how the sport is scored. It takes too much to get a 10-8 round and so it becomes difficult to differentiate between a clear round win and a closer one. There have been plenty of people who have put forward more progressive scoring systems and move away from the one left in place by boxing. The athletic commissions have been slow to adapt though. Overall, I agree Hendricks clearly won the fight if you look at the entire picture but when you break it down round by round it all comes down to round 1 and I can see that one going either way. I gave it to GSP but I don't have a beef with anybody who scored it differently.

Hey, I'm as frustrated as anybody and won't let this administration off the hook for the bad decisions they make/have made. The problem is you're trying to blame them for somebody else's decisions just because they work for the same franchise. If you're going to do that they you should give them credit for landing and developing Kelly and Kemp.

Can't ever hear that number without thinking of a classic

He wasn't "robbed." Every time a decision is close these days there are mobs of people yelling "ROBBED!" It was a close fight that could have gone either way. Look at it round by round. GSP obviously won rounds 3 & 5. Hendricks won 2 & 4. The close round was round 1 and it could have gone either way. Not sure how it going GSP's makes it a robbery. People disagree withe it because GSP wears the damage badly. The same thing happened when he beat BJ Penn years ago. He was busted up in that Penn bout too, but he obviously won the fight. Other guys (like Hendricks and Penn) don't wear damage badly. A guy's face can't be how people judge fights. Look at it round by round and while you might disagree with it it's not a robbery. And no, I'm not a GSP fan. I didn't have a dog in the fight. Yeah he is. He's the king of wanting every decision to reflect his PoV and if he doesn't he screams that the judges are idiots.

Hey, I'm sure Cossell knows more about Nasib than Morrone though. I'd trust his judgement more on this one too...

Yeah, between the highlight reel footage you took 5 minutes to watch and reading some blogs on the internet your study of Manuel has him pegged as a solid 4th round pick.

I have little faith in this Bills team but I don't know what you guys are looking at if you think the Jets are significantly better. They're not. This will be an ugly, fairly low scoring game. If the Bills D can stop the run they have a decent shot at winning. If they get run over like they did last week then it's likely the game. This game will be decided late and will be somewhere in the 13-10, 17-14 range without the aid of D or ST scores. Neither of these offenses should be able to do much.

As great as he was he's just not the same. This move doesn't bother me at all, I don't want to Bills to sign over the hill vets. If they have to replace Byrd replace him with a guy free agent in his prime or a talented young guy who can grow into the job.

Why? EJ has been the QB for most of the wins. He's the best QB on the roster and the're developing him. They're not mutually exclusive.

They did this years ago and I'm not sure why they stopped. It seemed like a win/win. The TV networks get an extra week of games and the players get an extra week of rest.

Your posts entertain me. It also amazes me the level of emotional attachment people still have for Flutie. It's like Tebow. I don't get it and I never will.

Hey, I agree with you. There's no way of knowing about him at this point and any in depth conversation is really just a projection of what people thought about the draft pick to begin with. People who liked it go out of their way to defend it and people who didn't go out of their way to question his ability. I'm in the cross my fingers and wait and see camp.

Oh, come one. A highlight reel? How about you go study the game tape like the scouts and front office staff did? Highlight tapes are about big plays so they cherry pick those. Guess what, big plays guys tend to be wide open that's how they end up being big plays. Nobody is putting together a highlight reel of a guy threading it to a WR in a tight spot for 12 yards. Granted, I don't know how many of those throws he had in college but to be dumbfounded because his highlight reel lacked those specific elements it laughable.

You don't blame him for acting like a petulant child and causing problems and rooted against the Bills in the playoffs. That pretty much explains everything people need to know about your opinion of Flutie. You were a Flutie fan and not a Bills fan. No wonder you get so upset when somebody questions how good he was or the issues he caused.

Yeah, I was talking about his body of work, not really that specific post in terms of length (I just knew somebody would point this out.) He generally makes some good points but rehashes them ad nauseam and I end up skipping most of the post because he's not a columnist and I don't' have the time to read them. It's a shame, because he's a smart guy who makes good points, I just prefer posters who are more succinct.

In the first 15 weeks of the 1999 season (the ones Flutie started) the Bills offense put up more than 20 points only 6 times. This year's putrid offense has already done so 7 times. The 1999 Bills team won because the defense gave up a franchise low 229 points (14.3 ppg) not because of Flutie. In won despite him. So let's stop with the revisionist history of how great Flutie was. If he was so great they never would have benched him in the playoffs. Nobody is benching a great QB who is moving his offense up and down the field like a machine. Let's also not forget that in the previous year, as another poster has mentioned, when Flutie had the chance in the playoffs to lead his team to victory yet fumbled the game away at the end. Conversely, RJ led his team down and put up the go ahead points with a few seconds left. Yet somehow people are convinced that Flutie would have led them to victory? Based on what? If that 1999 team had anybody worth a damn at QB they would have been Super Bowl favorites with that defense. Unfortunately they had Flutie and RJ.
