Well boys and girls - the dust has settled from yesterdays opening day debacle. And one has to ask - Did we really wait 9 months for this??
Here are 10 things on The Answer's mind after week 1:
1) JP Losman - Let's start with the obvious, for anybody that honestly believed he was going to 'take the next step' in 2007 what type of drugs were you taking? He is a horrible QB and one of the worst in the league. Oh and JP - hope you have your realtor's number on speed dial because you might want to think about putting the house you just bought on the market because your days in buffalo are numbered.
2) Kevin Everrett - A dissappointing end to a dissappointing career. But more importantly lets just pray he's ok. As hardore football fans we sometime lose sight of the fragility of human life and how that can all change in one singular play in a meaningless football game.
3) Langston Walker - Looks like we definitely kept the wrong 'Walker'. LW was nothing but a turnstile and lived up to his reputation he had with the Raiders. On the other hand - Darwin Walker was wreaking havoc all day long and was one of the stars of the Bears defense yesterday.
4) Lee Evans - Lee, you are great receiver - but you might want to hold off on planning that trip to Honolulu. 2 catches for 5 yards is anything but elite - and for some reason Dre Bly just owns you!!
5) Roscoe Parrish - If The Answer has said it once, he's said it again - get the little fella more involved in the offense. He's a playmaker and Fairchild has to be a complete idiot to not recognize this.
6) 'Revamped' offensive line - and it sure is the best oline that $70+ million can buy! *end sarcasm* - seriously this online is hideous and looks no better than last years ragtag unit. Defenders in the backfield every play, there were a few times they looked solid, but few and far between for sure.
7) Defense - let The Answer guess, it was a 'victory' to hold the Broncos to 15 points despite giving up 450+ yards of offense? Wrong - just wait until we play the Patriots, among other teams - it's going to get ugly - real ugly for this pathetic unit.
8) We are staring down the barrel of 0-3 start, and after watching what the steelers and patriots did ON THE ROAD yesterday to weaker teams (lump the bills into the same category as the jets and browns for sure) its scary to think what's going to happen to this undermanned, depleted defense. Not to mention that the Cowboys looked to be in midseason form lastnight putting up 45 points against the giants, so if we can't beat the jets it's 0-6 for sure considering the schedule ahead.....
9) Lindell - How many more games is this bum going to cost us before the front office and coaching staff realizes a change needs to be made? I don't care what this guys FG % is, he's not a clutch kicker and misses every key FG when games are on the line.
10) 7 points - that's right 7 points by are starting offense - that's just not going to get it done and unfortunately as the season wears on that means a lot of losses - ugly blowout losses - Trent get your throwing arm warmed up!
