    Did we really kick a 24 yard FG?

    Seriously? I don't know why I'm surprised, but can someone on this staff use some common sense and in the process grow a set. Actually, I'm not surprised. I'd actually be floored if they went for it.

    First of all, this team hasn't seen the Red Zone since, well I can't remember when. So why not go for it on, I'm assuming 4th and Goal. What the hell do we have to lose?

    I guess more than anything that type of call symbolizes what the Jauron staff is about, even though it is a meaningless (and I mean this in terms of win-loss only) game. They always wimp out and never have the balls to attack. The philosophy simply is get close enough and kick the field goal. That is simply the play to not lose strategy which ironcially always seems to lead to a loss. Hopefully this will end soon, but it looks like another long season before some semblance of sanity returns.

    The field goal is our chief offensive weapon, on those rare occasions when we get close enough to try one, that is. I think we missed a 33 yarder earlier, so I guess Dickless felt we needed a little more practice.
    Should have known, way back in 1960 when we drafted Richie Lucas Number 1, that this would be a long, hard ride. But who could have known it would be THIS bad?

        I don't mind...Lindell is the only Buffalo Bill I have in fantasy

          I'm so glad I drafted Lindell in my fantasy league last night.
