thebandit27 Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 Thanks for the link 26!! It reminded me of the year that Jason Peters was coming off of his 1st Pro Bowl season and Marshall Faulk said the Bills biggest need was LT. That was about the only thing that they DIDN'T need (besides RB). I remember that as well...it was the exact moment that I realized that many former players that now "work" as analysts do very little actual research on individual teams and often shoot from the hip.

I don't mind disagreeing with them. If someone said that Chandler was a top 20 TE I would disagree but can understand the argument (based on numbers). If someone said that the Bills needed to upgrade they DTs I would never respect that person's opinion on anything ever again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's simply mailing it in for someone that gets paid to analyze the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dorkington Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 Let's not act like Fitz never has good games. In fact, I'd say he's about a 50/50 guy. Bad Fitz showed up last week for the Texans, we shouldn't expect bad Fitz to show up this week. It's not going to be an easy game, and there's absolutely no guarantee of victory, especially on the road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What we are saying that playing mistake free football isn't his forte. He is a gunslinger that makes plays and mistakes. EJ is a game manager that doesn't make many plays or mistakes. Anyone that thinks the exact opposite (as the guy at PFT suggests) is just wrong. He lost a ton of credibility in 2 sentences IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Real Buffalo Joe Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 Houston did draft #1 last year, so I wouldn't count them out for failing to hold their house. But their number one pick is out. How do you know how good/bad any of those teams are?(With the exception of the Raiders who are obviously a bad team) It's still too early to tell if the Redskin or Giants are "really terrible teams". You forgot the Texans are playing the Bills. Have you watched the Bills the past decade? We always suck so I don't really understand your point. Exactly what I've been trying to say! If we lose this game it's all Gregg Williams and Aaron Maybin's fault. Don't forget that damn Rob Johnson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tennesseeboy Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 Seems to me the game plan should be run first-pass second. Houston has trouble with the run game, we have a darn good running back triple threat and our line seems to run block better than they pass block. A good run game goes a long way toward a favorable time of possession. Our receivers had better perform better if they want the ball thrown their way, and our line had better think about pass-blocking in those few occasions where we do pass the ball. If we win we will dominate on the ground and have excellent time of possession. Bills 27-Texans-21. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rockinon Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 Just to compare this season, Fitz has 4tds and 3int compared to EJs 3td and 1int. We're only three games into the season, but that's par for the course for Fitz. He's a gunslinger without the gun. Yea, and EJ has a gun but doesn't know how to shoot it.

FireChan Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 (edited) Yea, and EJ has a gun but doesn't know how to shoot it. Well, you can't buy a gun in NY, someone should tell on him. Edited September 25, 2014 by FireChan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tampa Bob Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 The game will depend on the time of the month for EJ. If he is having his period, he probably won't play well with his hormones acting up and all. Seriously, our offense is so one dimensional without a QB that can/will throw a ball to a WR 10 yards past the line of scrimmage. After all the BS talk about having speed at the wide-out position, how high Williams can jump, Hogan is always open, Goodwin is so fast, Sammy catches everything, Sammy is fast, Sammy is this Sammy is that ... As a unit, they quit at home against San Diego. It's no coincidence that Lee Evans led the veteran charge Sunday. Lee must have showed them how to quit. The Bills WR corp is the absolute worst in the league. Buff WRs - 26 catches 319 yards 1 TD in 3 games. (Watkins 13; Woods 8; Williams 5) (Goodwin, Hogan & Easley -- zero catches) Haha on the lee evans comment! That was good. I couldn't stand him.

Agent 91 Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 And the Bills have beat a Bears team that is 2-1 and almost lost to S.F(1-2) and the Jets(1-2). And the Phins (1-2). My point is the Bills have really done squat so far. Well maybe a little but not nearly enough to get big for their britches. Without even breaking it down and just watching. Your last sentence is obvious. Overconfidence gets you beat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dorkington Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 So, if I understand correctly according to TBD... Our QB sucks, our OL sucks, our WRs suck, our TEs suck, CJ sucks, and our CBs/DBs suck. We only have strength at all of 4 positions, yet we are 2-1. Man, the rest of the league must really suck.

The QB is not good, OL average, CBs average (if you include Graham), CJ is fine if you get him the ball in space, WRs are fine if you get them the ball period, and our TEs suck.

Dorkington Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 Sounds like we're in for about a 4-12 record with that lineup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thewildrabbit Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 The "real" computer picked the Bills to win. That is the super duper, mega computer that Microsoft Cortana that has picked the wold cup winner correctly.

Well, if the QB sucks, and the main RB doesn't get into space (we'll run him up the gut until he pukes), and our WRs suck (because they don't get the ball, because the QB sucks) and the TE sucks... not really sure what that leaves us for offense. I predict a 4-12 record based on expert analysis of TBD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
