I just think that if you’re not jacked up for Monday Night Football, you’re crazy

Roger that. While the inconsistent offensive play, the “consistent and predictable” offensive play calling have us all worked up, you have to be jacked up to see our team, playing AT HOME, on MNF. Plus, I would love to get some pay back to the Browns after last year’s pathetic game in the snow.

However, all of that said, I am very, very, very concerned for our Offense. If we have conservative crap, stalling drives, and all that I put this season in the tank. The offense has to SHOW that it can grab chunks of yardage.

The offense needs to come out clicking (possibly by mixing up plays and formations…I know, I’m talking crazy here) or else it might be time to start thinking about the draft. Ugh.

Being that you brought it up- well, kinda- Brian, am I the only one that’s nervous about the Chiefs game with one less day to prepare? Thigpen’s been improving and Johnson is coming back…I’m not saying I’m petrified of the team or anything, but suddenly that matchup is looking less favorable.

i am also frightened by that game….but i refuse to think about it, as without a win on Monday, nothing matters

To quickly address Langston’s quote:

“True Buffalo fans haven’t given up hope. True football fanatics haven’t given up hope. People who really know the game, know that we’re not out of the hunt.”

Good point, Langston. True Bills fans have not given up “hope” yet, but we certainly aren’t expecting playoffs anymore because we’ve seen this scene before. Nevertheless, Bills fans will always be delusional hopeful. It’s part of being a Bills fan. Eternally pessimistic heart-broken, always hopeful. In many regards, being a Bills fan is similar to suffering from battered wives syndrome.

Are you ready for some football…

I, for one, am totally jacked up for Monday Night. I’ve been to about 30 bills games in my life, and last year’s MNF game was without a doubt, the loudest, most insane crowd I’ve ever seen.

I was just telling my buddy yesterday, that as bad as the Bills have been playing, I still couldn’t possibly be anymore excited for Monday’s game. Maybe it’s the fact that we’re playing the Browns, who at the very least, are just as bad as us. Maybe it’s the fact that I’m taking the afternoon off on Monday, and the morning off on Tuesday to get a little extra “preparation” myself. Maybe it’s the fact that I plan on being in the parking lot by 2 o’clock on Monday for a solid 6 1/2 hours of tailgating. But, regardless of the reasons, I’m primed for Monday.

As much of a “glass is half empy” kind of a guy I am, I just don’t envision the Bills losing on Monday. The Browns have been extremely dysfunctional this year, Rommeo Crennel is easily the worst head coach in the NFL (sorry DJ), and Brady Quinn will be starting only his second NFL game and his first on the road. Oh, and it just so happens it will occur in the not-so-friendly confines of Ralph Wilson stadium on a Monday night in November.

As bad as the Bills have played the last three weeks (and it’s been pretty bad), on the scoreboard, they’ve been in every game at the end. Oh, and the Browns have been just as bad.

When asked if the losing streak has had a sobering effect on the team, Walker replied: "I didn’t think we were drunk." Well, regardless of how the Bills play Monday, at least I will be.

Not to look ahead…but if the Bills can’t win the next four, then they do not deserve to be characterized as anything other than mediocre… on a good day. Winning the next four “winnable games” will put the Bills back in the hunt and guarantee their first winning season since 2004. As everyone remembers, the 2004 Bills won 6 in a row against mostly inferior competition and got into the playoff hunt, only to lose when it really matters. The Bills of Mularkey’s first term gave us hope, but ultimately proved itself a paper buffalo. The way things are unfolding, I fear the 2008 season will follow a very similar arc. If they take care of business now, the last three games present a formidable challenge that will likely rip the hearts out of Bills fans. The fundamental problems remain, which will only be magnified late in the season when the weather turns nasty. But they need to get to that point first.

Are those running stats off? Are we really 28th in the league at 93.8, averaging more yards per game than the 21st ranked Browns? I’d have to imagine the Brown number is a bit higher than listed.

Good to see Butler is likely to play. We need him. Coincedence or not, but our OL has gotten drastically worse without him. Plus, this will get Preston, Whittle, or Chambers off the field. We still have that gaping *ag*na at center though, which will always kill us until we address it.

It’d be nice if Whitner toughed it out this week, even though I don’t think he makes much of a difference out there. Am I the only one who continues to be disappointed with this guy’s play?? I’d like to see him pull a Jared Allen and play with a separated shoulder, show some toughness to your teammates who obviously need it.

This game scares me, especially considering the Browns’ bickering. This just seems like one of those games that the Bills always find a way to lose. Huge MNF crowd with the world watching against a team in turmoil, kind of like the Cowboys and Giants games combined from last year. If this was a Sunday afternoon game, I’d be much more confident. Doesn’t that seem kind of odd? Am I the only one?

Oh, please kick Brady Quinn’s butt. This would be a MARVelous (!) week for the pass rush to appear. Young, flaming QB making his first road start, we’ve got to get in his grill and push those mistakes for once.

Thankfully. I’ll be @ the Ralph and won’t HAVE to listen to this fool, at least until I replay the DVR during the week.

If this game turns out anything like our last year’s MNF vs Dollass, it’ll be something to remember. The Ralph was SO electric that night. If ya didn’t know better, you would swear that it was a true championship playoff game. I’m looking forward to much of the same again this year! Com’on 12th Man!!! I can’t hear you!!!! . . .Yet.

Are you ready for some football?????

Last year’s game was electric. Wilson taking back an INT, Denney doing it all on his tipped pick-six catch, that place was alive!!! If the Bills have any semblence of humanity and timing, they will win this game. To do it like the Pats beat us on Sunday Night football last year would be a plus (not to add any negative thoughts to this). :-)

You would have thought it was the Super Bowl. We had seats about 10 rows up, right behind the Cowboys bench…I’ll never forget when my buddy called T. McGee’s kick off return before the ball was even launched in the air…The atmosphere in the Ralph was utterly indescribable…man. I’ve never when went from that high to that low in a span of 60 football minutes…ahhhh. To this day I can’t watch that one NFL Network commercial that shows a bunch of clips from that game.

I think the I’ll loan the Bills a phrase from my Air Force: “You guys need to MAN UP”
