    Frankly, I'm surprised...

    I thought that we were going to get our ASSES kicked this week in Indy, to the tune of 41-10.

    We made a game of it, and realistically could have WON it.

    All you naysayers can ***** about what we did or didn't do, but I am actually feeling better about our team after this game than I thought I would.

      I love the defense today. I'm very encouraged where this staff is taking them.

          If not for the fumbles and the 2 big returns by McGee, it would have been a very different game. The defense did exactly what it needed to do...they prevented the big play, kept everything in front of them and went after the ball.
          Indy's offense has been chewing up every defense it has faced.

            I was surprised that the coaches actually did some homework and limited Peyton Manning. On the other hand, the coaches offensive gameplan was, well, OFFENSIVE!

              It's time to spend some draft picks on the offense.

                we need to get a QB who can show some kind of production.

                  When they were executing, they were moving the ball and eating clock. I thought the game plan was pretty good. Our players just aren't very good on the offensive side of the ball. We did run the ball pretty well today considering how one-dimensional our offense is and they knew we were going to run.

                    My rough game grades-

                    Defense- B+ - would have been an A if they could have gottent he ball back on the last drive

                    Special Teams- A - Big returns, great punt coverage, overall solid performance

                    Offense- I'll give an A to the running game with a backup QB in there
                    Passing game and QB stunk. D- except Evans who gets a B
                    OL- B minus- an A for the run, a C- for pass protection

                    Game Plan- Anything that gets you to a chance to win on the road with that Colt team- they get an A. They played to their strengths and minimized their Weakness (JP)

                      The D gets huge cred. Did you see the accuracy on Manning's passes? Our guys were in the right position most of the time and were still getting beat.

                      I know Jauron will make sure everyone has their head held up high after this game. This team has been showing more and more promise every game after since the bye.

                        Is there one who can play all by himself and plan the offense?

                          Re: Frankly, I'm surprised...

                          At the beginning of this season, when the schedule came out, I looked at this game as the ABSOLUTE worst loss we would see all year. I was thinking embarrassment, humiliation, ass-kicking.

                          To come out of it kicking and scratching, losing by one point, with a REAL chance of winning it.....not even in my thought process.

                          Yeah, we LOST. Did any of you think that we would actually win?

                          .....I thought not.

                          I'm looking at this as a positive...hopefully we can build off this for the rest of the year.


                          ...GO BILLS!!!!

                            It was nice it wasn't a blow-out but it would also be nice if we could score TD's on Offense and while I not a big fan of JP's play, he wasn't the problem today, play calling was horrible. I think Moorman should be going back to the pro-bowl.

                              I said since last week that this game was going to be close and to take the Bills and the points.

                              Doesn't surprise me that the Bills could of won another one if their offensive leader showed up.
