  1. He didn't practice all week.....several weeks for that matter....and you expect him just to walk in the door and play yesterday?? Be realistic.
  2. I'm with you on this one...I'd be pleased with an 8-8 record given all the injuries, etc. the Bills have had to battle through this year. Even though the second half of the Bills schedule is much easier than the first half, winning 7 out of the next 8 games is a lot to ask.
  3. ESPN is reporting Freeman has a concussion, and may not play this week.
  4. The only other QB on their roster is Kellen Clemens....yikes. If the way things are on this board is any indication, there should be a lot of posters on the Rams message board with their panties in a bunch over the clueless front office and their inability to address the backup QB situation....lol.
  5. The Colts have beaten SF, Seatle, and Denver....who has a better resume than that??
  6. +1 He's made more plays on the ball this year than he had in his entire career before this year!
  7. Well, the Bills were able to extend their streak to seven games....any chance the Colts can hold the Broncos under 20? My guess is no.
  8. The NFL will continue to be less enjoyable by the year as the league continues to legislate violent collisions, and for that matter defense in general out of the game. In 40 years, the NFL will go the way of Boxing. If you have an HD Television: Watching the game at home > being at the Stadium
  9. Good news! Thanks.
  10. They are required to show all Jacksonville road games in the Orlando area....I just looked at my cable box guide, and it shows that the Bill/Phins game will be shown here in the Orlando area. Good for me, I can actually record and re-watch the game this week.
  11. This is how I felt before the game, unfortunately he had a hard time shedding blocks and making tackles with his club-hand to the point he was a liability on the field. I applaud his desire to get on the field to help the team, but we won't see the real Gilmore until he gets the cast off his hand.
  12. He was missed as he is a key component in the Bills run defense. Marrone said after the game that it was a hamstring, but didn't elaborate on the severity, or the amount of time he might miss. Here's to hoping his injury is not too serious...I like Lawson, and I believe he is the best run-stuffing LB the Bills have had in many years.
  13. GB would be a good landing spot for him...their backup situation could use the upgrade, and as you said, he has thrived in their system.
  14. +1.....it's amazing what a guy can do with a competent D coordinator. I believe Mario deserves more credit for getting 10.5 sacks last year with clueless DC Wanny at the helm.
  15. "Mr. Big Stuff" has arrived...he's been dominant in the last two games.
  16. Oops, didn't realize the guy I was quoting accounted for one of the two non-offensive TD's....my bad.
  17. Yeah, I was sure that when they came back from commercial, they were going to be loading him on to the cart....glad to hear its only a knee sprain, hopefully he will be ready to go vs Cincy.
  18. Actually, they gave up 16 points...and that should have been plenty good enough to win if the Bills had not needed to turn to "Tool".
  19. Well done. This defense is certainly beastly, and will continue to get better as Byrd, Gilmore return to the lineup. What I'm looking forward to most is seeing just how good this D can be at full strength!! Unfortunately, it will be for nothing if EJ's injury keeps him out for an extended period of time....you could have the '85 Bears defense out there and it wouldn't be good enough to win with Teul at QB .
  20. I always thought his nickname was "Mr. Big Stuff", either way I was very happy for Dareus today, and I hope we continue to see more dominating games like this one from him in the future.
  21. I'd rather see these guys than the yahoos that come around when the Bills lose.
  22. Obviously, McK is the number 1 PR, and was hurt, but why put Leonhard back there when a big return was needed. If the Bills had the lead, and wanted a sure-handed guy to make a fair catch I'm all for having Leonhard back there. The situation called for someone with the potential to break off a big return and putting someone with less PR experience was worth the risk at that point. Woods, Easley, Graham were better options at that point, IMO. Was this a head-scratcher to anyone else??
  23. If the Bills had their true starting secondary, the Bills would have won the game. As bad as the Jets D made the Bills O look, they still scored 20 points, and if Gilmore, McK, and Brooks were at corner, with Byrd and A-Will at strong safety where he belongs, the Jets would have been lucky to score 9 points at best. I think the pass rush and the blitzing went out the window because the coverage was so bad, it wouldn't have been effective anyway.
  24. As bad as the Jets D made the Bills O look, they still scored 20 points, and IMO that would have been more than enough to win this game had the Bills secondary had Gilmore, McK, Brooks, and Byrd playing. Lets hope those guys get healthy and back playing soon, because it will be next to impossible to win games with the secondary they are fielding now.
  25. My take: Byrd wanted to be paid 9 million/yr, and he is being paid 7 mil/yr. Therefore, playing 12 games for 7mil will be equal to playing 16 games for 9 mil. So look for him to come back for the Thursday night game vs Cleveland. It's a prime time game, so he will get national attention, and he will have 10 days to recover before the next game.
