But here is one thing, there is being aggressive, and being stupidly aggressive. How can anyone think giving the ball to JP and telling him to win the game instead of to Lynch immediately is smoking or trying to sell you something. As soon as that play started and JP kept it, my heart fell into my stomach. If he had handed it to Lynch, I could have lived with it, especially after the oline dominated on the ground all game.

Sireric must not get to too many Bills games if that’s the most ashamed he’s been leaving one of their gems…

That said, the Bills have created a new emotion in me this season, after I believed this team had covered the gamut of negative emotions over the past decade. That emotion is humiliation. After a 5-1 start, to be 6-8 is humiliating to everyone who class themsel;ves fans of this team.

This post will read like a Krytime style brain dump.

haha. Those are actually some of my favorite fanposts. I fell like these posts that talk about a bunch of things always create a lot conversation and debate.

“Let’s see it’s 3rd and 3, I see 3 wide and J.P. in the shotgun, pass play.”

How often are the Bills in a shotgun formatiion on 3rd and 3 or 4? About 80-90%? To me, Turk’s biggest flaw is his over reliance on the shutgun. It’s what leads to his predictability and I think it is part of the reason he abandons the run too much as well.

I would say that he [Marshawn Lynch] is as good as advertised, if not better.

I agree, Beastmode is even better than I thought he would be and I loved him when the Bils drafted him.

Furthering that last point, is a little more J.P. vs Hamdan debate. Hamdan is the more accurate of the two.

Maybe a little. Is 63% playing in Europe all that impressive? Losman was right around that same percentage in 2006 and 2007, playing against infinitely better competition. Hamdan only completed 52% of his passes in college. If Hamdan is more accurate, and he might be, the difference is probably pretty marginal.

if you aren’t going to let Losman throw it long

I’m sure that Turk called plenty of plays where WRs ran deep routes. When the QB doesn’t take shots down the field, that is on the QB, not the coaching staff. Coaches don’t tell QBs to ignore WRs when they are running deep routes.

What’s wrong with wearing a thong? The flexibility is amazing….

many of us were saying run, run it, and run it some more. You did not need a crystal ball to know putting the ball in JP’s hands was a bad idea. If he could be counted on to make those plays in critical situations, he would still be the QB.

however the last few weeks (since the CLE game) He’s been atrocious…..at catching the football…he’s had a horrible case of the dropsies……..I hope he gets that figured out soon

Don’t know if you stayed long enough, but is it true that Marshawn was inconsolable on the bench after the game and pretty much didn’t leave the field because he was so distraught??? Poor guy, gives his all week in, week out, only to have his bozo coaches not trust him with the ball in the most crucial of situations for whatever reason. I would be sick if I were him and it sounds like he is. He and many others don’t deserve the “leadership” they receive….

I wasn’t rooting for the Bills to lose exactly, but I didn’t mind if they lost. Not for a better draft pick, especially since we have been screwing up those more often than not. (A higher pick also costs Ralphie kmore cash!) But for the reason that if we would win out, then Ralphie has an excuse to bring back the coaches. Toward the end of the game however, I was pissed we let the Jets off the hook. We had a chance to ruin their season, and Favre’s, and he deserved to have it ruined yesterday.

Let’s face it: some our recent draft picks have been flat-out miserable. We know about
Donahoe’s failures, but these recent ones can’t be blamed on him. Hardy? Miami has an undrafted free agent WR that is tearing up the league named Devone Bess. He seems to be able to learn and run routes. Chris Ellis? As pathetic as our pass rush is, he is inactive most weeks. How good can he be? We passed on drafting LB Dan Connor to get Ellis in the 3rd round. What for? McCargo? Enough said there.
