and get a shot at a real QB in the top 10 in the draft.

another game of watching the Bills get beaten up by a more physical and bigger football team. Injuries, injuries, injuries. I’d say it’s anomaly this season – but with the bills, it happens every year.

This is the perfect time to shake up the team. Cut someone, fire a coach, sign Patrick Ramsey. Any of these things would shake it up a little.

is unwatchable.

It’s rediculous and it goes way beyond a few fixes. People complain about Owens but tell me one other player on offense who’s played well enough to be counted on this season? Fred Jackson is close, I guess.

There are big problems and it’s only going to get worse.

I hate that i’m beginning to hate this team.

is actually not the end of the world.

With the bye and Edwards, Scott, Whitner, Ellison, et al. back, we might make a run. The AFC East is not exactly hotstuff and we could sneak in there. We know we have one heck of a defense. I think these guys will make a difference.

This bye week will help clear the heads of the young O line and help ramp things up for the conclusion of the season.

Man a Miami win here would be big for us. Keeps the bottom of the division knotted up close.

He injured a groin in the 4th quarter. That’s 4 more starters injured.

There it is. Miami can take a knee right?

Fitz is obviously the better qb! Are you serious? I hope this ends any talks of him becoming a starter. Jeez. Bryd = the second coming of Ed reed. I’m sorry he has a horrible lb crew on his defense

Buffalo Bills rookie safety Jairus Byrd joined San Francisco’s Dave Baker as just the second NFL player to have two or more interceptions in three consecutive games.

The only QB that gives this team a chance to win is the version of Trent Edwards we saw during the Pats and Bucs games. We have to try to get this version of Trent back.

It is just frustrating to see gains of 2, 2, 3 and then a punt. Or passes behind the 1st Down marker, wobbly air balls, THIS SUCKS.

And the run defense. Oh lordy! The defense in general just fails to get off the field on 3rd down, it is really frustrating.

Hopefully we don’t give the Titans their first win in two weeks…

One of my favorite television shows EVER is House. Hugh Laurie is awesome, I really like the puzzle angle to the medicine, and it falls on a night when TV is weak. Win-win-win.

I recently re-watched a Season 3 episode entitled Half-Wit, which featured the one and only Dave Matthews as a guest star. Matthews played a 34-year-old savant with a severe brain injury – and he also happened to be a savant, and a famous piano player. He’s playing a concert at the beginning of the show, and his fingers start to hyperextend on their own, and it hurts, and so he’s rushed to good ol’ Princeton-Plainsboro.

Hang in there, I have a point. A Bills point.

House’s team of doctors diagnose him with a muscle-contraction ailment, but House, ever curious, keeps the savant around to examine his brain. Good thing, too – Matthews starts bleeding out of every orifice and then starts to have seizures. Long story short, the entire right side of the savant’s brain is dead. House urges his father to let him perform a hemispherectomy to remove the entire right side of Matthews’ brain. He won’t be able to play the piano anymore, but he’ll learn new things and live a much more normal life. The procedure works – savant loses his ability to speak, but it’s temporary, and as proof that it worked, the savant buttons his shirt for the first time ever with only half a brain.

Analogy time.

The Bills are Dave Matthews. More specifically, they are Dave Matthews’ addled brain. The left side of his brain works wonderously – or, at least, works well, and thanks to some lucky re-wiring, allows him to perform unbelievably well when he’s in front of a piano. The left side of the brain is Buffalo’s defense, and the quirky re-wiring leading to savant tendencies is Jairus Byrd.

And yeah – Buffalo’s offense is the right side of the brain, the dead part. It’s really salting left brain’s game, and despite the savant, Buffalo can’t button their own damn shirts (i.e. score points).

That, unfortunately, is where the analogy ends… for now. Can’t cut out half your brain in the middle of a season. But you bet your ass we know exactly what needs to be fixed once the season is over. Bye bye, right brain.

Moats’ 3 TDs lift Texans after another Slaton fumble as sadsack offense fails Bills

We don’t have any money invested in JaMarcus Russell.

Does this front office need to see? How much worse really can it get before something happens w/ this coaching staff?

It’s beyond unwatchable, the injuries are becoming a joke, the coach, who someone called a great leader on this board has absolutley no offensive vision, has no concept of clock management, and has no feel of the game.

What more Does this front office need to see?

The end of the season.

I find it interesting watching people react very negatively to a performance that was almost identical to last week. People were happy to see Buffalo suck it up and win while Delhomme combusted. In the prediction thread for today’s game a number of people talked about how the Bills win ugly games, all I could do was shake my head and think about how people have destroyed Dick Jauron for losing close games for awhile now. This week, Fitz looks exactly the same, the D hangs in there the best they can and everybody is jumping on the coaching staff again. The NFL is overreaction after overreaction after overreaction. The team isn’t any worse than they were last week.

Jauron is still the same coach that won those games and the same coach that goes 7-9 every year. We are still starting a bunch of rookies on the OL, Fitz isn’t a worse QB when he losses than when he wins, Buffalo doesn’t need a QB anymore than they did last week. What were people expecting to see today and did anybody really learn anything of significance from this game?

It should be common knowledge that running the same play twice in a row from that formation is a bad idea when the first one barely gained more than a standard trap run. It’s like this team does things because they think they need to be like everyone else, but they can’t reach the counter top.

….we get an above average qb.

We have talent on offense, evans, jackson, lynch.
A Bad Oline plus injuries
a qb who in his 3rd yr we still arent sure if he is the starter. (wont throw all the routes)

Look at Green Bay…
Bad Oline with injuries…..rodgers get sacked 6 times by the vikings today
But they put up 26 pts!!!!!
If you have a good QB points will happen.

WE NEED A QB WITH THE MENTALITY HE CAN WIN GAMES. IF HE THROWS A PICK, SHRUGS HIS SHOULDERS AND COMES BACK OUT AND THROWS A TD PASS, NOT CHECKDOWNS THE REST OF THE GAME.

Trent has some talent, but he gets in the way of himself. He needs to just let the ball fly instead of being over concerned about the INT. INT happens, but keep throwing the ball. He needs to understand that you must throw for 1st down yardage on 80% of 3rd down plays. You cant always check it down and hope for the best.

The ownership, management, scouting, coaching, play calling and execution are all horrible. Any questions?

Defesnse puts us in a position to win, and the offense lays an egg. What the #%^$!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is absolutely terrible, I can’t stand it… Edwards better come back ready to play because this defense can only last on the field so long if our offense isn;t capatilizing on opportunities. It could have been 21-0 and we wouldn’t even have received a kick off or punt in the first half yet…

Disgusting

B-R-U-T-A-L. Brutal. That’s our offense. It’s comical how bad they are. Seriously a 1st down is a milestone for these guys. It’s so sad. This defensive system really is a great system if we had an offense that could move the ball. Score some points, put some pressure on teams. It’s just so pathetic. I mean you can’t make it up. Jauron is going to take the fall, and he should because he should have fired Schonert’s a## last January when he had the chance. Don’t every mistake activity for achievement the great John Wooden would say. That’s exactly what we’re seeing from the offense. They work hard, they try their best, but they have no clue what they are doing out there, and AVP is in way over his head

The Bills need to take a huge oatmeal bath or something. 1/2 for the injuries 1/2 for the smell!!!

The only saving grace, and what most non-Texan don’t know, is that we are really deep at Tight end. Dreesen and the Rookie James Casey are great tight ends.

Also, consider that every point we scored came with Slaton and Daniels out of the game, so I’m not overly worried about OD being gone, it just sucks because he was on his way to a great year.

As for Ryan Moats, no he wasn’t a surprise. Alot of people have been clamoring for him to get more carries as he has done the same thing in most games where he has gotten carries.

He is not as shifty as Slaton in the open field but he is a bit better about hitting the holes with speed and authority.

I think the answer will continue to be using both he and Slaton with an expanded role for Moats.

As for you guys, WOW that Byrd kid was a great find. Other than him bouncing off Andre Johnson, which he is not alone in doing just ask the Cardinals, he had a great game. I am very impressed with that kid.

How is Schobel?
