The Official Buffalo Bills-Cleveland Browns Monday Night Gameday Thread!

[BillsZone Moderator]

For the 2008 season, we at the Zone are going to do something different.
A Zone Moderator will create the "official" gameday thread each week. It will be locked until several hours before gametime, and all other gameday threads will be deleted.

The discussion in these threads must be about the Buffalo Bills, and the current game in progress.

Flaming, veiled profanity, passive-aggressive insults, and any other posts not related to football are TOS violations, and will result in disciplinary action, including, but not limited to:
1. Moving the post to spam.
2. Verbal Warning.
3. Banning from the thread.
4. Points.

The the Official Gameday Thread, and the Buffalo BillsZone itself are for discussion of Buffalo Bills Football only. They will be monitored very thoroughly the entire season, and violators will be dealt with on a case-by-case basis.
Please follow these simple rules, and show respect for your fellow posters, because in the end, we're all Bills fans, and we all want the same thing: A Championship season.

Thank You and Go Bills!

[LtFinFan66]

Oh Lord

[Historian]

I have a good feeling about tonight.

A one point win.

[Night Train]

Flaming, veiled profanity, passive-aggressive insults, and any other posts not related to football are..

I'll be there ! Go Bills !

[BlackMetalNinja]

I'm hoping work goes by extremely quickly today so I can get home and take a nap. Then I'm grilling steaks and hoping we wake up for the game tonight!

[Philagape]

:gobills:

[BuffaloBillsStampede]

LETS GO BUFFALO!!!!

[Luisito23]

GO BILLS!!!!!!!!!!

[HHURRICANE]

Officially, Edwards and company better have the game of their life because Cleveland is not Cincy!!

[Patti120]

I'm hoping work goes by extremely quickly today so I can get home and take a nap. Then I'm grilling steaks and hoping we wake up for the game tonight!

This is a great idea! I might do the same but I'll have to go grab the steaks though which might cut into nap time but it will be worth it!

GO BILLS!

[BlackMetalNinja]

This is a great idea! I might do the same but I'll have to go grab the steaks though which might cut into nap time but it will be worth it!

GO BILLS!I just know that I'm always exhausted on Mondays because I don't sleep worth a damn on Sunday nights, so it'll be necessary to stay up for the game.

As for the steaks, they're in the fridge ready to go... I knew it was supposed to be in the mid 50s still today, so I had it planned out.

[jamze132]

Boohoo to everyone who has to stay up late to watch the game. It doesn't come on here until 2:30am! But because I am a loyal Bills fan, I will be getting up to watch it. Lets go Buffalo, don't disapoint me and ruin my ****ing day!

[Patti120]

Wow! You are a better man than I!

[jamze132]

Wow! You are a better man than I!
Probably.

j/k



When it comes to my sports teams, I will bend over backwards to watch them live. I got up at 1:00am countless times this past baseball season so watch the Mets. I have an addiction.

[Night Train]

Bump.

Looking for some veiled profanity. It's never too early.

I took off tomorrow just for the game tonight and I'm wearing my Bills polo today. If the Bills lose, my co-workers will think I'm too depressed to come in. :ill:

LETS GO BUFF-ALO!!

[realdealryan]

I've been crushing small batch 471 and moved to whiskey and damnit my stomach is still upside-down. 3 very winnable games the next 3 weeks, 3 winnable division games, it's not ridiculous to think that we can still be in this. Plus I had to give my row 14 tickets away so I'm ready to pull an OJ and stab somebody.

Lose tonight and you can erase the first 2 sentences.

STOP. UNDERNEATH. SHORT. PASSING. GAME. PLEASE. DAMMIT.

ps AND. THE. RUN.

Thanks God.

Ryan

[SquishDaFish]

You have to give up your tickets? For this game?

[!Papacrunk!]

if the Bills win, can it be w/o any TD's or yards from Evans*








*um, it'd help my fantasy football team, lol

[SquishDaFish]

Well it will help mine if he did gets yards and TDs lol

[Mad Bomber]

We NEED to win tonight....

:gobills:

[Cntrygal]

:cheers: Here's to no injuries!!!!

[honey]

:gobills:

[SABuffalo786]

I hope we tear of a big win streak starting tonight just so we can shut those ****ing clowns on ESPN up.

[djjimkelly]

trent looks real gay in a turtle neck

[Nighthawk]

trent looks real gay in a turtle neck

And the point behind this post was? One last time, JP sucks...

[SABuffalo786]

trent looks real gay in a turtle neck


Do you think Marshawn does?

[Historian]

I don't wanna see these guys just win.

I wanna see them give Cleveland a beating.

They need to get their swagger back, or forget beating anybody in the division. (Except the fish)

[Patti120]

GAME TIME! LETS KICK SOME A$$!!

[honey]

Come on, Buffalo! Let's GO!!!!

:gobills:

[Patti120]

Looks like Whitner is suited up!

[Luisito23]

LET'S GO BUFFALO BABY!!!!...:dance3:

[Philagape]

Wow!! Giant helmets just landed in the stadium! :insane:

[Patti120]

OUR BALL! C'MON MCLOVIN!

[Philagape]

Nice return!!!!!

[Patti120]

MCLOVIN!

We need a harsh dose of beatmode!

[BILLSROCK1212]

Leodis gets to the 40 almost everytime now the offense has to do something with that great field position

[Patti120]

CAN ANYONE SAY F^&K!!!

[BILLSROCK1212]

SHOCKER ahaha

[honey]

YIKES!

[Philagape]

I don't ******* believe it

[Patti120]

#70'S name for the browns is hadnot!

[daniel3]

Hehe, Bills, you just can't help but love em.

[Patti120]

I don't ******* believe it

Really? I bet you're not surprised though.

[Patti120]

That was big there. Our team needs to step up the intensity here. No Roscoe!

[Luisito23]

Good stop D!...Now please try to run the ball here!!!!!!

[Scumbag College]

well, lost about thirty yards and most of my dinner during that exchange

[Patti120]

Man where is the push up front! We need to get it done up front!

[Philagape]

Well he got a yard

[Scumbag College]

man the O-Line needs alot of work

[honey]

OMG! :down:

[BILLSROCK1212]

WOW it's like the offense gets on the field and then another INT

[Patti120]

I'm ILL! Can't wait to hear the cries for JP this week!

[Scumbag College]

Trent looks bad.

[Philagape]

Trent looks like a completely different QB than just a few weeks ago. I've never seen such a negative turnaround

[helmetguy]

Who is that guy? Trent McNabb??

[BILLSROCK1212]

I'm ILL! Can't wait to hear the cries for JP this week!
not JP....HAMDAN!!!!!

[Tatonka]

time to draft a new qb.

[SABuffalo786]

We need to start pounding it.

[lightningbolt444]

I dont care how it happens but trent needs his confidence back he lost it along the road and he needs to do what he is good at and stop forcing things

[Philagape]

Wow a naked bootleg ... don't see that anymore

[Tatonka]

what is so awful about that last throw is that hardy was so ****ing open..

trent cant hit the broad side of a ****ing barn.. nice ****ing start to a nationally televised game.. ****ing toolbag.

[Patti120]

Why are we sticking to the same old game plan on O. we need to run the ball down their throats and stick with it until it starts working!

Nice job by TMC right there.

[Romes]

What the ****, Trent?

[KO1]

i know we cant run well....but come on atleast try

[Patti120]

HAMDAN or bust!

[Tatonka]

same old game plan? we cant run the ball.. they will just stop it.. no one is scared of anything our offense does right now..

this team is so far from a playoff contender.. cleveland should be up right now 7-0 if edwards could catch.

i got the over 40.5 so i should have known trent would suck balls..

[Borosai]

It's impossible to make excuses for Edwards. He's just flat out sucking hard out there.

[Mad Bomber]

A ray of hope...Braylon Edwards is on my fantasy football team. That guarantees at least 2 or 3 MAJOR drops. :up:

[BillsRockSOMUCH]

Looks like Trent is trying to match Romo from last year...
Also, Lynch carry-count is currently at 0: Over/under is 10.

And thank god for Braylon Edwards' hands of stone.

[lightningbolt444]

They need to run the ball this next drive then need to run it twice a third and 5 that trent has to convert i feel confident with him. Anything over 15-15 yards hes either right on or just off.

[X-Era]

Im just floored right now.

How can we be this cursed at QB?

I really hope he turns his **** around fast, because if he sucks too, were looking at YEARS to have even a small shot at being worth a crap.

[Mad Bomber]

:rofl: He just did it

[Patti120]

Wow! We blitzed and it worked!

[Philagape]

At least the Bills are bringing the heat tonight

[Nighthawk]

Yep, blitzing doesn't work and we can't do it with the corners we have. Yep, the people saying this really know what they're talking about! [sarcasm]

[baalworship]

I don't know what's wrong with Trent but he looks lost out there.

[Tatonka]

over 37.5.

[X-Era]

Is it just me or do we have a psycho reverb that annoying as **** going on with the coverage.

Turn down your ****** speakers you tools.

[Patti120]

Im just floored right now.

How can we be this cursed at QB?

I really hope he turns his **** around fast, because if he sucks too, were looking at YEARS to have even a small shot at being worth a crap.

Well if he would just bust out moves like Chris Farley in your sig., then we'd be all set...

[Nighthawk]

At least the Bills are bringing the heat tonight

This is how this defense can be more successful...otherwise, they won't be.

[Patti120]

Is it just me or do we have a psycho reverb that annoying as **** going on with the coverage.

Turn down your ****** speakers you tools.

I'm getting it too!

[Tatonka]

mad bomber.. your avatar is so fitting.

[Tatonka]

maybe we can talk jimbo into playing in the second half?

[X-Era]

I'm getting it too!

Its in their frikkin booth.

[Patti120]

Keep pounding it!

[Patti120]

1st down!?

[BILLSROCK1212]

phewwww we got our 2nd first down before our 3rd INT what a relief

[Nighthawk]

how do you not block that fat f**k?

[Tatonka]

holy **** rogers ****ing just owned preston.. OWNED.

[Philagape]

See right there shows it's thew run blocking scheme that fails, and they keep doing it and doing it, as if to say, Maybe THIS time it'll work :down:

[SquishDaFish]

Take this damn loser of a QB OUT NOW!!

[Nighthawk]

See right there shows it's thew run blocking scheme that fails, and they keep doing it and doing it, as if to say, Maybe THIS time it'll work :down:

Come on, it's great coaching!

[Nighthawk]

This offensive gameplan is horrible again. Trent looks bad, the coaching is bad...ahh, just another NFL weekend in Buffalo!

[baalworship]

Preston isn't even slowing down Rogers. This is getting old.

[Tatonka]

trent already looks scared to throw the ball.. he doesnt want to turn it over again..

it really sucks to just know your going to lose.

[Philagape]

3-4 defenses kill this team .... they can drop 7 into coverage and still get pressure

[Luisito23]

Would anybody be mad to see JP in there in the 2nd half if Trent continues to play like garbage?

[Mad Bomber]

Wow. This team is HOPELESS.

I've been a Bills fan for over 45 years. More of the same crap.

[justasportsfan]

Would anybody be mad to see JP in there in the 2nd half if Trent continues to play like garbage?
you would

[Tatonka]

i would be totally fine with jp at this point.. trent has 9 turnovers in the last 4 games.. that is worse than any stint jp ever had.
we are not going to win with either though.

[Philagape]

The pass rush is keeping us in it

[Luisito23]

you would


No I wouldn't Justa, I just us to win despite of who's behind center brother!

[Nighthawk]

Yep, blitzing doesn't work...nope, can't do that, will never work.

[BillsRockSOMUCH]

Wow, the defense hasn't looked this good since the opener. Unfortunately, the offense is laying an egg.

[justasportsfan]

this D sucks. They can't score for the O

[SABuffalo786]

Great. :rolleyes:

[Tatonka]

here comes the safety.. that is unless trent just fumbles it for a td.

[Nighthawk]

Marshawn's vision just doesn't seem that great.

[Bufftp]

Robert Royal late in

wasted TO

[Nighthawk]

Wow, this team is so poorly run...it's not even funny.

[Philagape]

Another great job substituting .... :sigh:

[CuseJetsFan83]

i have to agree with jaworski's analysis

[SabreEleven]

What is JP going to do that Trent isn't?

[CuseJetsFan83]

wow..... i am speechless

[Borosai]

Sit Edwards.

[Bufftp]

Complete to Browns!



:(

[Iehoshua]

Bye Trent. BYE!

[SABuffalo786]

JESUS ****ING CHRIST

[Tatonka]

holy ****!!!

i really didnt think it could get any worse!!!

[justasportsfan]

JP time

[Luisito23]

Bring in JP, I'm sick of this S*** already!!!!

[X-Era]

BENCH HIM!!!!!!

Im done.... done!

[Iehoshua]

JP time
F JP. Who is the 3rd QB?

[Philagape]

at this point let Dick be the QB

[Bufftp]

Nice Jabari

[baalworship]

3rd and 1 shotgun inside the 20...INT.

You can't make this crap up.

[justasportsfan]

What is JP going to do that Trent isn't?
throw an INT deep in browns territory instead of close to scoring position for the browns

[Bufftp]

Somehow we got to hold to them to 3

[Tatonka]

god i hope cleveland scores to help my over..

lets go jp.. warm up.

[djjimkelly]

ok this is getting ridiculous everyone was wrong jauron you was wrong




PUT IN JP

[Mad Bomber]

Trent, you SUCK.

I repeat....YOU SUCK

[SabreEleven]

Wow, this sucks...

[Philagape]

Bring Turk out of retirement

[X-Era]

Well, looks like we all know what our 1st round pick will be for the 09 draft!

[justasportsfan]

F JP. Who is the 3rd QB?
IF Trent can't dink right what makes you think Hamdan can dink better ?

[Bufftp]

Yes great D!

[SABuffalo786]

ok this is getting ridiculous everyone was wrong jauron you was wrong




PUT IN JP


I'd rather have Hamdan.

[Iehoshua]

IF Trent can't dink what makes you think Hamdan can dink better
Hamdan! Hamdan!

[BILLSROCK1212]

Bryan Scott our hero!! Has to be the best in season signing in a long time by this organization (last year)

[Illmatic15]

Fred Jackson for QB!!

[Philagape]

Get Jaws out of the booth and have him be the QB

[justasportsfan]

Well, looks like we all know what our 1st round pick will be for the 09 draft!
we should use all our picks to trade for a Head coach

[Bufftp]

Ok all is not lost
3 Ints one on the 12 only turns into 6 points.

Now put it together TE!

[Tatonka]

over 34.5

[Nighthawk]

Everybody relax. Remember we were on the other side of all those TO's last year and we lost. Maybe we'll win on this side of things.

[Borosai]

They should run the wildcat all game long.

[justasportsfan]

I'd rather have Hamdan.
so he can dink some more ? NOT

[Mad Bomber]

Ok all is not lost
3 Ints one on the 12 only turns into 6 points.

Now put it together TE!
Wow, Ted, you are an optimist.

We need a QB.....

[BillsRockSOMUCH]

McKelvin, you are our only hope!

[Borosai]

Leodis returning very well today.

[Philagape]

Everybody relax. Remember we were on the other side of all those TO's last year and we lost. Maybe we'll win on this side of things.

Nighthawk telling people to relax :faint:

[Tatonka]

go to the sidelines and mckelvin scores.

[Nighthawk]

Wow, Ted, you are an optimist.

We need a QB.....

Maybe, but if you get another QB and keep Dickey, then you're not going to go any further. We need a real HC!

[Philagape]

Gee, I'm sure the D is wondering where Lynch will run :rolleyes:

[X-Era]

And many of you will see first hand why you cant simply run run run

[SabreEleven]

At least now when TE throw an interception, Cleveland will be in their own territory.

[BILLSROCK1212]

McKelvin was worth it even if he just ends up being a returner. The amazing field position he gives us is irreplaceable.

[Mad Bomber]

Can this team actually try to run OUTSIDE the tackles??????

[Nighthawk]

Ahh, lovely statistic about Jauron...losing seasons in 7 of 8 seasons coached. Nice...

[Tatonka]

****ing go for it!

[Scumbag College]

drop. cmon

[SABuffalo786]

so he can dink some more ? NOT


You want the alternatives? Be my guest...

[Philagape]

And when Trent gets it done, someone else doesn't :sadwalk:

[SquishDaFish]

Get him the **** OUT NOW!!

[Tatonka]

****ing pussies.

[justasportsfan]

I'm waiting for people to blame the qb for that drop

[X-Era]

Lets just call this the VOMIT bowl!

This is the most disgusting piece of **** game I have seen in YEARS!

[Mad Bomber]

More of the same....predictable offense, stupid mistakes (dropped passes, etc.)

[Nighthawk]

****ing pussies.

Umm, did you forget who's coaching this team?

[Luisito23]

I don't know why but I'm OK with Johnson dropping that pass, I mean at least they know he's out there!

[justasportsfan]

You want the alternatives? Be my guest...
the alternative scored 17 pts in 1 qtr coming off the bench. Thats better than anything we've done the last 3 games

[Tatonka]

whitner is already out.

[SabreEleven]

A WR can't catch but the back-up LB can? :wtf:

[Philagape]

Good stop Kyle

[Tatonka]

my bad.. he is back in..

[Philagape]

whitner is already out.

Actually, I think they had 3 safeties in :huh: I saw Whitner, Ko and Scott

[Nighthawk]

my bad.. he is back in..

He doesn't play SS anymore...he plays FS and they keep him and Scott on the field at the same time.

[Scumbag College]

big third down here

[Scumbag College]

And the illegal contact call. this team is hapless.

[Nighthawk]

Bad call...wow.

[Nighthawk]

Awesome! I love when we play 10 yards off...it is so effective!

[Tatonka]

good call punting.

[Nighthawk]

Nice, keep playing 10 yards off. Wait, but that's what people keep saying works!

[X-Era]

They are rushing the passer and leaving the 10-15 yard middle open.

Just change the damn scheme a bit!

[Philagape]

Offensive interference! :mad:

[Nighthawk]

They are rushing the passer and leaving the 10-15 yard middle open.

Just change the damn scheme a bit!

No, they're not. They are playing 10 yards of the WR's...that is stupid coaching at it's best. This is by far the worst coached team in the NFL.

[DraftBoy]

Quinn looks to be heating up and Edwards is now catching the ball...


Great..Greer may be done for the game now.

[Tatonka]

greer is out.. that should help my over!

[Nighthawk]

Wonderful, Greer is now out and now Dickey and boys have another excuse.

[SABuffalo786]

Greer Hurt = No more blitzing = Game over

[Tatonka]

the life of a bills fan is so awful.. god.. it is so painful that all you can do is laugh.

[Nighthawk]

Greer Hurt = No more blitzing = Game over

Greer out = Dickey getting scared and the Bills getting blown out. Dickey is going to put his thong on and sit back.

[christhebillsfan783]

WOW HOW BAD ARE WE?

[Philagape]

12 play, 94 yard drive so far :sigh:

[Don't Panic]

We are simply not ready for prime time. That 4-0 start seems YEARS ago.

[Tatonka]

over 27.5!

[Iehoshua]

Why should one subject him/herself to watching this?

-for the slim chance they miraculously come back?

-a glutton for pain?

Please enlighten me.

[Bufftp]

Now we need a drive for a TD.
We will do it.

[Nighthawk]

WOW HOW BAD ARE WE?

We are as bad as our HC! It's that simple!

[christhebillsfan783]

Wow that was a quick game it only took cleveland a quarter and a half to make us look like a bunch of idiots.

[Scumbag College]

6-10

[Tatonka]

so will it be a turnover.. or a 3 and out?

[X-Era]

No, they're not. They are playing 10 yards of the WR's...that is stupid coaching at it's best. This is by far the worst coached team in the NFL.

I must have missed something, who is responsible for 10-15 yards over the middle again?

[Cleve]

Ugh!!!

[Chimpanze]

STUPID PASS CALL on 3rd and 1, LUCKY BOUNCE on the PUNT, STUPID PHANTOM CALL on 3rd down, MARSHAWN LYNCH STOPPING HIS RUN and NOW THE DEFENSE PLAYING 10 YARDS OFF!


STUPID COACHING, COMBINED WITH STUPID REFS, COMBINED WITH A NERVOUS QUARTERBACK!!!!

[Philagape]

They're avoiding McKelvin

[Tatonka]

another drive starting at almost the 50.. 3rd time now.. lets see how we blow this too.

[Philagape]

Nothing works for this team.

[Nighthawk]

Marshawn runs like an idiot sometimes...his vision is terrible.

[Scumbag College]

Nice run by Freddy! FG range baby!

[Philagape]

Action jackson!

[Chimpanze]

HEY A RUNNING PLAY ON 3RD AND SHORT

[Cleve]

Jackson -wow!!!

[Philagape]

Marshawn runs like an idiot sometimes...his vision is terrible.

Wearing a visor at night doesn't help

[Dolfan984]

That Jackson kid is pretty good. He deserves more carries IMO.

[KO1]

PLEASE GET 6 HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[justasportsfan]

haha! Instead of trying play action we run Jackson again. Man we're not obvious!

[Philagape]

Beast Mode saves the day!!!

[SABuffalo786]

THERE WE GO!

[Cleve]

Awesome!!!!

[Iehoshua]

Maybe Buffalo answered my last question...

[im8th2buffalo]

Finally!


:clump:

[Borosai]

Jackson and Lynch.

[Tatonka]

wow.. that goes down as a TD pass.. rofl.

[DraftBoy]

Bout time! That was all Lynch!

[Scumbag College]

Dumpoff for the TD. The Browns secondary can be exploited in big ways, no way should Trent throw 3 INTs in a game, much less a quarter.

[Tatonka]

over 20.5!

[Chimpanze]

Mckelvin, PLAYER OF THE HALF FOR THE BILLS

[Nighthawk]

Dumpoff for the TD. The Browns secondary can be exploited in big ways, no way should Trent throw 3 INTs in a game, much less a quarter.

2 of the picks were on him, the other was tipped. He looks like crap, but let's not sound ignorant.

[Luisito23]

Nice TD, now come on DEFENSE!!!!!

[X-Era]

Thunder becomes lightning and lightning looks like thunder

Maybe Lynch can be our change of pace RB?

[X-Era]

over 20.5!

OK, kill the dot man.

[BILLSROCK1212]

Nice TD but I saw Trent staring down his initial target, Lee Evans. This could be the cause for his INTs. Every QB goes through this sort of faze, he'll get out of it sooner or later.

[X-Era]

Maybe, just maybe, Trent hit his official bottom in that 1st half, for the year, and for his career.

Maybe he is officially headed upward from here.

[Billsfan3]

Now we need a drive for a TD.
We will do it.

nice call

[Borosai]

Trent definitely held onto that too long. Fortunately Lynch made something out of nothing (with good blocks).

[im8th2buffalo]

That is what lost Losman the starting job. Staring down receivers, and being inconsistent is not good for any QB.
He needs to get it together NOW!

[Tatonka]

yeah.. trent had zero to do with that td pass. that was all blocking and lynch.

he held the ball too long and was all paniced in the pocket again.

[X-Era]

And Nighthawk, did you n otice that play that all the LB's dropped back to cover the 10-15 yard area, and Quinn had nowhere to throw!

[Cleve]

Nice, 3 & Out!

[im8th2buffalo]

The defense has stepped it up tonight.
I hope they keep it up!

[Philagape]

There ya go

[BILLSROCK1212]

Steve Johnson makes up for the drop. TRENT GET RID OF THE BALL QUICKER!!!!!
