Bleed Bills Blue

Adjust on offense, move those chains...win TOP!!

Hurdles...wait...that sounds like a circus clown. Ok, Babyface it is.

He's being put on notice, along with Hauschka...

He needs to raise both arms at the end there and give that last, defiant shout to the heavens.

Here's one slider the Bills love to pound.

Unfortunately, not many teams are built to overcome this level of game-fixing. The Bills certainly are not. Parity makes it all possible. A close game is one that can be decided with one well-timed call...or non-call. I apologize, this crap has finally turned me into a hardcore cynic. Oh, and Epstein didn't kill himself.

I guess the new standard at a critical juncture of a game is that O linemen have to stand flat-footed and can't lift their legs at all in the face of a defensive power rush. Feels like someone behind the scenes is lifting his leg and pissing on the fans.

Well, since we've come to that fork in the road, I think we should take it. And take the game, too. And while we're at it, stick that fork in the turkey and the Boys. They're both done.

Pick the right spots for designed runs and allow him to trust his instincts when he decides to take off. Too valuable a weapon to ignore on an offense that needs to utilize everything it's got. Of course, be smart about it. But also be fearless.

Hear me now and believe me later: If we beat the Cowpukes to go 10-2 on Thanksgiving Day, we will have completed the Giants-Redskins-Cowboys revenge trifecta, and it will then be clear to everyone that the stars have finally aligned and that destiny postponed is not destiny denied.

Makes you question what the real reason is for the foundational emphasis on parity in the NFL.

Great writing, Shaw. Still early, and not an exact match, but definitely some parallels between Duke Williams and Fred Jackson. Let's hope this is the start of something beautiful!

Kyle Orton. Perfect fit for this offense. AND he knows how to slide.

OMG, best sequence of vid, pre-4th and 1, Foles to the sidelines, says to Pederson "you want Philly Philly?" The priceless look on Pederson's face as he thinks for a whole second and says "yeah, let's do it." Foles says "good" and goes back to the huddle. "Ok, here we go, Philly Special...ready." Yeah, let's do it...like you want pepperoni on your pizza, coach? Sounds good, let's do it. Hope we have a head coach who can pull the trigger like that when it's all on the line.

We need more talent and depth on the O line, then... Line up and beat your man.

"Momentum" might better be thought of as "getting into a rhythm", which is an observable "thing". You start to notice it, for example, when an offense that has been been playing haltingly begins to string together a series of successful plays and then first downs. This is mostly due, I think, to the offense poking around and eventually finding something that works against the defense on that given day.

I would be thrilled if, within a few years, the term "Patriot Way" is forgotten and never again uttered, and "Buffalo Process" is the shining standard quoted throughout the league.

Must be nice to be a Pats fan and not agonize over this stuff in December.

We should bring in a master like Kyle Orton to coach him up on the finer details of sliding.

Ugghh, he'll probably be playing with Brady in four years.

Did you also know he was Jack Nicklaus' grandson?

Lots of Bills-related stories surrounding recent NFL events. Here's another. I've always admired Jack Kemp, both for his football career and and after. Some of this "ancient history" may be unfamiliar to younger Bills fans. I think it prompts the questions: What exactly are you protesting, and what exactly will you accomplish by it? "The 1964 American Football League All-Star Game was scheduled to be held in New Orleans in January, 1965. Kemp and team-mates Ernie Warlick and Cookie Gilchrist were members of the Eastern Division team. When they arrived at the New Orleans airport, Gilchrist and Warlick hailed a nearby cab. The cabbie told Gilchrist: “You have to take a colored cab”, to which Cookie replied “I don’t care what color it is, we just want a cab!” The driver explained that they had to wait for a cab used only for black patrons. He peered out at Kemp, though, and said “I’ll take you.” Kemp replied that if the cab was too good for his friends, it wasn’t good enough for him. After similar treatment of the black players at their hotel and other Big Easy establishments, Kemp joined with the rest of the white players on the squad to support the black players in their boycott of the city. In an early civil rights stand, the players held out and the game was moved to Houston." https://spectator.org/boycott-the-nfl/

Tyrod could study Pegula's technique for drop kicking Rex's big butt outa here.

How about every time Tom Brady whines about being hit, an opposing linebacker is awarded an open-field penalty tackle on him?
