What exactly has Holcomb accomplished in this league that he has "earned" the right to call out teammates in the media? Just because he's been in the league for a long time? It's a bad move for a QB to all out his line publicly. Privately, sure, have at it. But at the first sign of trouble what does Holcomb do? He passes the buck. That's just great.

Did you see the route Moss ran? He didn't even try to sell the slant that much, but Clements bit on it anyway giving him the sideline in the process. If Moss had made a play to get the TD I'd agree with you, but it was a mistake by Clements that resulted in the TD.

And some T-Shirts. I don't know why people are giving up on this season, they've just got to "Bill-eave!"

It has nothing to do with the Oline. It takes a WR 2 seconds to run 15 yards down the field, the Oline gives him enough time he just doesn't pull the trigger...ever. That being said this debacle isn't all Holcomb's fault, the entire team just sucks on the road.

We got killed with whatever Oakland tried to do. When they wanted to throw it, they trew it. When they wanted to run it, they ran it. It didn't really matter.

A few roughing the passer calls on screen passes will move us into FG range.

The screen pass is the staple of our offense. That and the 6 yard curl.

If the Bills didn't like it they should have stopped it. It's not like they didn't know a run was coming...

He's not even on the active roster for many of the games.

In the immortal words of Greg Willaims, they "just need to execute better."

You don't need Sanders to suit up again to have an example of a nondescript big time RB...the NFL has LT. The guy is the real deal, an all time talent and he does the same thing Barry did when he hits pay-dirt. Many questioned whether San Diego made the right move in trading away the 1st pick in the draft and not taking Vick. I don't think anybody questions it now. Can anybody argue that Vick is more valuable than LT, even if you don't bring Brees into the equation?

Yeah, those too!

Not that I condone fascism, or any -ism for that matter. -Ism's in my opinion are not good. A person should not believe in an -ism, he should believe in himself. I quote John Lennon, "I don't believe in The Beatles, I just believe in me." Good point there. After all, he was the walrus.

I'm not so sure she'll murder the person in question, but everybody else will. There are lots of "clicks" on this board and the moment you cross one person everybody from that "click" will jump on you. Lori, however, has no single “click”. She is the Ferris Bueller of TWS; She’s very popular. The sportoes, sluts, bloods, geeks, wasteoids, dweebies, d*ckheads, they all adore her. They think she's a righteous dude.

Below are Tom Brady's career stats for "bombs", throws that are in the air for 40+ yards. As a comparison, I've included Manning's as he's considered a "real threat" with the long ball. Brady (5 seasons*)- 12 of 42 (28.6% comp) for 638 yards 6TDs 6INTs Manning - (8 seasons*)- 9 of 39 (23% comp) for 499 yards 5TDs 3INTs * this includes the 6 games played be each this season. So, the guy that “can't” throw the ball more than 20 yards has more completions, attempts, yards, and TDs in his career than Manning on balls in the air over 40 yards…and he’s done it in 3 fewer seasons than Manning. He also has a better completion percentage as well as a better YPA (15.2 for Brady vs. 12.8 for Manning). Granted, Manning is better at the intermediate stuff than Brady, but this notion that Brady "can't" throw the deep ball is pure make-believe.

If you havent noticed every single player that comes out of California is "smug" or "California cool" or some other version of the same insult. Apparently, in the history of the sport, nobody that has ever come from California has been a decent guy.

Smart move? Yeah, it's about as smart as the Bills D praising themselves before the Tampa Bay game only to have Tampa run all over them. After the game Tampa players were litterally laughing at the Bills D. I guess the Bills D got in Tampa's head too?

I didn't read the entire piece but from what I did read I'm scratching my head. He seems to be more interested in the view he has of the area surrounding the stadium than he is with how great the stadium is to watch a game in. Who cares if “from various points around the stadium, you can see Mount Rainier, Puget Sound, the Olympic Mountains and the Seattle skyline” or if “millions of burnt-orange and red leaves frame the north end zone.” Are we on a nature hike or watching a football game here? He rarely even mentions anything about watching a football game in these stadiums.

In two games he's attempted only 5 passes over 10 yards. That needs to change.

If I recall correctly that was a short slant where the CB fell down and Evans took it to the 1 (though had he lept for the goal line he would have scored easily).

What worries me the most is his apparent lack of confidence in his own ability to throw it deep. The fact that Holcomb checks down on virtually every single deep play call tells me something. It's very unlikely that the D has it double covered every single time . Holcomb needs to put the ball up there and let Evans or Moulds make a play. (or get a PI call, which seem to happen on about 1/4 of all deep throws in the NFL).

Our run D. 158 yards a game and 5.3 ypc against is just pathetic. If this D was halfway decent at stopping the run this team would be a legitimate playoff contender.

I'm not particularly concerned with passes that travel 35+ yards in the air. It's great the stretch the field once in a while but not that big of a concern if they don't connect regularly. That being said, they need to take shots down the field more than once every two games, which is what they've done so far under Holcomb. What I'd like to see are a hell of a lot more passes in the 15-20 yard range. Unless a passing game uses all of the field it's really not going to be successful on a regular basis. With the exception of the Cambell completion last week I'm struggling to come up with any other mid range passes in the past few weeks.

I'll take a wild guess and say every team's fans.
