Let's hope my Tivo actually records it this time. I woke up Sunday morning eager to watch it only to find 3 hours of black screen had been recorded.

I'm good enough, I'm smart enough, and gosh darn it, people like me!

How was Gibson's movement? The Bills are going with a lighter, more athletic line which looks like it's going to be pulling a lot. That doesn't sound like Gibson's forte.

I got extremely tired of this in last year's version as well. The fact that they haven't fixed it doesn't make me want to go out and pick up this year's game.

It appears that your 5th grade year was the peak of your talent judging capabilities.

You're assuming he's already taken the engine out of the broken down Trans Am that's sitting on cinder blocks in his driveway.

The Bills losing a lot of games and the Bills losing a lot of games against the spread are two different things. The Bills were 11-5 against the spread in 2004 and 7-9 against the spread last year. Being a bad team doesn't mean you don't cover when you lose.

Whatever happened to that stiff arm? Two years ago it was a fantastic weapon. Too bad I haven't seen it since.

Travis Henry did not suck. He was a good straight ahead runner who was very decisive and hit the hole hard. He also gave his all on every single play. He had some drawbacks; he didn't possess great hands and his blitz pickups left something to be desired. His running style also subjected him to a lot of punishment and it was apparent that he would not sustain a long career. Somehow everything ends up being black and white with people, the player is either great or he sucked. Overall TH was an average starting RB while with the Bills, nothing more, nothing less.

The problem with Owens isn't all Owens (though much of it is), it's also the media. Owens could be a choir boy these days but he'd still be a distraction to the rest of the team. Every little ingrown toe nail or dropped pass gets blown way out of proportion and has the potential to keep the other players, and the coaches, from concentrating on what they need to do. IMO he's just not worth it, no player is. I wouldn't want him on the Bills if he played for the vet minimum.

This might be the funniest post I've read in a long time.

How did you see the play if you're on gamecenter? According to gamecenter it was a 56 yard play, not 72. The last time the Bills had a play around that length was...the first half (54 yards).

You're likely right.

I think we've found Holcombs Arm's alt username.

Disagree, if there's nothing available past the marker you check down and try to pick up the 5-6 yards the team needs to get into FG range.

It almost sounds like this team is in pre-season form.

You're like a broken record. Get your head out of the stat book and watch the games. A few good plays don't erase an entire season of bad ones. Vincent was late getting over consistently and was a liability against the run. He had a horrible season. This D might suite him better, we'll see, but to keep sighting these same stats and calling it "reality" and "reason" is comical. You know, when coaches and GMs go to evaluate a player they don’t watch film, they simply glance at the stat sheet…

Why? It should be mocked and laughed at and that can't happen if someone deletes it.

You're not going to see consistancy with a new scheme and a young QB as much as you like. I'll take these flashes in the meantime.

Obviously he wanted to play as he started. If he didn't want to play he wouldn'thave stepped foot on the field. He's not going to risk himself if he's not comfortable no matter what the coaching staff says.

It's one drive, they're going to play into the 3rd quarter, let's see how the game goes. The Bills scored lots on their first drives last year and we all know how great that O was.

There's no shame in drinking cheap beer, but when you re-tell the story you should upgrade it to something better.

Holcomb has a lot of chunkability. His play makes me want to chunk everytime I watch him.

Not that I haven't been wrong plenty of times but I didn't like the Holcomb signing to begin with. It had nothing to do with him sucking and everything to do with JP looking over his shoulder. I knew the first time JP struggled the fans and media would be clammoring for Holcomb to play. That's no way to bring along a young QB. I did post this thought in a thread at one point though apparently it wasn't the one linked.

I joined as well. This will be the first time I've ever played in multiple leagues as I've always just played in my one money league. Somehow it feels like cheating.
