Glory Bound Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 I thought I was awake. I thought I ate breakfast. I thought I was ready to watch whatever Florida teams the local TV channels were offering. (Not my choice, but I live in Florida.) Then my wife happened to notice that DirecTV was offering a free trial (today only) of Sunday Ticket. So I recorded and watched the Bills game. (After the last couple of seasons I had cancelled Sunday ticket, because it just wasn't worth the money to watch another losing season.) I thought I was awake, but the Bills were clobbering the Chiefs. It wasn't ugly, it wasn't lucky bounces of the ball; they actually looked pretty good. Of course, I wasn't awake. It was too good to be true. It was all a dream. Then to continue the dream with posting in this forum...& people responding. I like your dream!

Saudi Arabia Rob Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 It's the new uni's Only problem with the new ones is with the white helmet, the only QB of any note with that helmet was Fergy...and we all remember how hot and cold he was.

HurlyBurly51 Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 We cant measure the team by this game. After all, Cassel is playing hurt and that team really is not good. Next week, these pretenders will come down to earth Miserable SOB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike in Syracuse Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 This was an all around professional effort by a focused football team. I couldn't help but notice the players on the sidelines towards the end of the game. There wasn't any laughter, celebration or stupidity, just a bunch of professionals standing there knowing what's still in front of them. Nix and Gailey know what they're doing. It's time we recognized that. Winning a home opener, on the road in KC is a solid indicator of where we're heading. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bufcomments Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 To make it more impressive Lee Evans did not score.... oh wait a minute... He plays for the Ravens right?? I'm still impressed with the total TEAM win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billsfan1959 Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 Eastrochfan, I was simply stating at the time when I posted that there was some pressures coming down on Fitz. We didn't get killed but it wasn't the best either. As the game went on and the lead got larger we got more consistant. That's all I was saying. Overall we had a great game and still can improve on some key positions: Merriman, Parrish, Jones, Spiller. Easley was out, Moats was out. I was dissapointed but not shocked in the least that McGee was already injured. If he takes longer than 6 games to recover I see them putting him on IR and we have seen the last of his old dusty @ss. I've been calling for this since Greer was let go so I kind of feel S-M-R-T on this one. Sucks to know I'm right though. I'm OK with it because Williams is a gamer and will be part of our youth movement half a year earlier than expected. How did Lee do in Baltimore today everyone? Just curious. And it didn't look like we missed him here at all either. Chandler will be this years Stevie Johnson and our young WRs will be fine with Jones and Nelson. GO BILLS!!! Evans - 0 catches on four balls thrown his way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dorkington Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 WOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOW I was not expecting this outcome! I watched this at a Bills Backers bar in Philly... couldn't have been a better start to the season! GO BILLS! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glory Bound Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 Fitz QB rating 133.00 Cassel QB rating 64.47 At noon, I would have put the odds of that at about 1%. I live in Steelers country now & if someone would have have asked me the odds of the Bills blowing out the Chiefs & the Ravens blowing out the Steelers...well, I would have put the odds of that scenario at about 1% as well. My son-in-law is a rabid Steelers fan & he just text me & said it's the first time he would rather be a Bills fan than a Steelers fan! LOVE it! What a game!

Wooderson Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 The biggest thing I noticed about this game was the play of Nick Barnett and Aaron Williams. Both looked like studs. Our tackling was phenomenal, Run DEF was great against #1 running team from last year, and Fitzy controlled the game. Impressive first game, but definitely a long road ahead. It's nice to be pleasantly surprised every once in a while with the Bills. :thumbsup: P.S. How could I forget Freddy J. Dude was a monster, I don't think he ever gets pushed backwards.

BuffaloBaumer Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 Red zone O = A+ - wow, just wow Fitz = A + - perfect reads when blitzed Jackson = A+ - Always gets to where he need to be O Line = A+ - Great on run and pass Chandler = A+ - saw it in pre-season and was wondering why they did not use him more (answer, secret weapon for opener) Defense - forget about it I don't care if KC turns out to be the worst team in the league, that was an almost flawless performance that bad teams cannot pull off...
