Official Bills vs. Texans Gameday Thread

[BlackMetalNinja]

I'm finally back to the normal routine and will be enjoying, and I use that term loosely when the Bills are concerned, this one from the comfort of my couch. Let's hope they find a way to keep it going this week...

Let's Go Buffalo! :gobills:

[shelby]

:gobills:

[mybills]

Good morning Buffalo!
Only 6 mph winds today, but Texans are used to warmer weather. :D
:gobills:

[SquishDaFish]

LETS GO BUFFALO!! :gobills:

[The Popcorn]

I hope TO has a big day.

[SABURZFAN]

4-4 would look great going into the second half of the season.


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

[BillsWin]

4-4 would be pretty surprising and a good ego boost for a team that is already playing better than they should be. Go Bills! Crush the Texans!!! Lets get that offense clicking!

[YardRat]

O-line's looking decent...

[SABURZFAN]

the OL is looking good so far. :up:

[ParanoidAndroid]

More pressure on the QB... gotta give it up for the d-line

[YardRat]

Lynch is a dumbass...gave up a first down.

[SABURZFAN]

[shelby]

[SABURZFAN]

[honey]

Good catch, TO! :up:

[Scumbag College]

Meredith hurt, down to the fourth string RT!

[honey]

Meredith hurt? :(

[shelby]

[YardRat]

lol...nice spot.

Jesus...another injured tackle?

[Griff]

Meredith down... fantastic

[YardRat]

Put in Jackson...please...

[honey]

Geez. :shakeno:

[shelby]

Our O looks like garbage.

[honey]

OMG! :mad:

[shelby]

70 something yard return....thank God for the penalty.

[Novacane]

Our offense effing sucks

[YardRat]

Nice route...Not.

Maybe that's one of the reasons Johnson hasn't seen the field much.

April owes the refs one...

[honey]

:whew: Hold on Texans. At least it wasn't on the Bills.

[Novacane]

Ok, we need to score this time! :gobills:




:lmao: That was a good joke Honey.

[honey]

:lmao: That was a good joke Honey.

I was trying to think positively. :D

[transmaniadevil]

can i watch the live game on here today, my cable is down.

[NorthCarBills]

Thank God for Stroud on that line.

[shelby]

Great job by Stroud!

[Scumbag College]

Wow that Bills defense gives up yards but they can cause turnovers. In business now!

[Griff]

well at least our defensive MVPs are doing good work.

[Griff]

yep Fitz should totally replace Trent

[shelby]

this offense sucks.

[honey]

Good Lord. We need to capitalize on the turnovers!!! :mad:

[NorthCarBills]

Ugh...how long can defense keep us in the game (once again)?

[spacecowboy]

The Byrd is the word

[Scumbag College]

Jairus Byrd is absolutely out of this world.

[NorthCarBills]

Pay that man now....LOCK EM UP!

[honey]

BYRD AGAIN!!!! Yay!

[Griff]

Byrd for President

[honey]

TO!!!! YAYAYAYAYAY!!!!!

[Griff]

did that just happen?

[spacecowboy]

TO TD WOOOOOOHOOOOOOO

[shelby]

Holy **** TO scored a TD!

[jamze132]

Can someone buy me a Byrd jersey and send it to Afghanistan????? This guy is insane!

[BILLSROCK1212]

Honestly I am speechless....Byrd should also play WR

[SabreEleven]

TO looked like he was shot out of gun when he turned that corner

[NorthCarBills]

Jauron's not playin! He wants 7-9 like it's nobody's business.

[YardRat]

Wow.

I'm hard-pressed to remember a kid going on a tear like Byrd is.

[spacecowboy]

Whats with the return coverage?

[NorthCarBills]

What's up with the Hartford Whalers jersey guy in the end zone? Just askin.

[Scumbag College]

Cmon Poz, we neeed that tackle from you!

[YardRat]

lol...Way to fill a hole, Poz. Jesus.

[spacecowboy]

BS call

[honey]

Good grief. :shakeno:

[YardRat]

Good call...that's a penalty.

[NorthCarBills]

Holy crap Jauron woke up.

[Scumbag College]

Schobel, beautiful!!!

Back out of FG range!

[YardRat]

SCHOBEL !!!!!!!

[honey]

SCHOEBEL!!! SACK! Good!

[spacecowboy]

Good call...that's a penalty.
Ya he should have put on the air brakes

[shelby]

Great job Schobel!

[honey]

Ya he should have put on the air brakes

I don't know how he could have stopped with that much momentum, either. :smile:

[ajsdx]

in that situation, the defender has to go OVER the quarterback or else the flag will be thrown every time. you see it every week. you can debate whether the rule should even exist, but that was a good (or at least consistent) call.

[shelby]

Stupid penalty.

[Scumbag College]

Schobel having a huge game so far.

7-3 Bills.

[shelby]

All these turnovers and we only have 7 points.....wtf

[MikeInRoch]

He dipped down just as he hit him. That is called every single time.

[MikeInRoch]

All these turnovers and we only have 7 points.....wtf

Are you familiar with our offense, by any chance?

[spacecowboy]

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newton%27s_laws_of_motion

[ParanoidAndroid]

The d-line is playing well.... dumb penalty that time, but good pressure the play after.

[Scumbag College]

Need a couple of first downs here. Keep that defense fresh.

[spacecowboy]

a first down would be good

[spacecowboy]

Yay Freddy

[spacecowboy]

Head shot?

[shelby]

Ugh Fitz is not the answer either

[spacecowboy]

Nice!

[Scumbag College]

Josh Reed on third down baby! He's been doing that for years!

[ajsdx]

fitz-to-reed!

[shelby]

Josh Reed=clutch. Beautiful pass.

[honey]

GO REED! :up:

[NorthCarBills]

Good team support by Hamden. Showin those sideline skills.

[ajsdx]

what the heck?

[Stewie]

our OL is not good

[shelby]

Ugh this offense is painful to watch. Really.

[Griff]

yep I'm just a Trent licker, our offensive woes have nothing to do with coaching and Oline play and Fitz is much better than Trent.

[shelby]

**** i just lost my feed!

[YardRat]

Move 'em back...

[spacecowboy]

**** i just lost my feed!


Doooh!

[jamze132]

All Shaub needs to do is dump it off every time and he will have 300 yds by the end of the game.

[honey]

DAMN! :mad:

[honey]

Loss on the play. Good!

[spacecowboy]

Bills can't defend the screen or any crossing routes unless Byrd gets an INT

[Griff]

All Shaub needs to do is dump it off every time and he will have 300 yds by the end of the game.

I thought checking down was bad?

[Scumbag College]

Why hasn't Nic Harris been playing more on D?

[YardRat]

Nice play by Harris...now hold em to 3.

[shelby]

HOLD THEM!!!!

[YardRat]

SHORT!

[shelby]

crap.

[spacecowboy]

Holy did you see Stroud jump Holy crap!

[Griff]

crap.

? bent didn't break

[shelby]

close game

[YardRat]

Kick-ass return...no flags?

[Griff]

woot the offense is pulled out of the fire again

[YardRat]

We need points...don't get cute...especially with Lynch.

[Mr. Pink]

If we had any semblance of an offense, this game would be over already.

So frustrating.

[YardRat]

CALL TIMEOUT!

[Scumbag College]

Josh Reed again!

[Scumbag College]

Beastmode!

First and goal!

[YardRat]

Nice run...

[Griff]

c'mon offense, get the TD

[YardRat]

That hole was so big, even Marshawn saw it.

[shelby]

come on, make something happen!

[NorthCarBills]

DAMNIT - COME ON TO!

[YardRat]

Fitz really puts everything he has into those bullets.

DAMMIT!

TO has to go up for that.

3 pts is a letdown.

[Griff]

That Fitzpatrick is a baller. 4.0 ypa

[shelby]

FG is better than nothing i suppose.

[Typ0]

TO should have caught that one.

[shelby]

Anyone got a live feed? i wish i could go to Honey's and watch this freaking game!!!

[Stewie]

our ol isn't good.

[NorthCarBills]

FG is better than nothing i suppose.

That's probably what Dick is really thinking. But I know what you mean.

[Griff]

So what have we learned in the 1st half

1. Byrd is for real
2. We're not good against the run
3. Fitz and AVP are not good.

[Historian]

Anyone got a live feed? i wish i could go to Honey's and watch this freaking game!!!

You're better off not seeing it.

[shelby]

Miami and the Jets are tied at 3.

[Stewie]

there is nothing wrong with trent or fitz, or our defense. Byrd is a gift from heaven. The biggest problem with our team is our young OL gets manhandled every third play.

[Luisito23]

there is nothing wrong with trent or fitz.


Our OL is horrible, but don't get carried away.

[Griff]

there is nothing wrong with trent or fitz, or our defense. Byrd is a gift from heaven. The biggest problem with our team is our young OL gets manhandled every third play.

and the play selection is terrible.

[Scumbag College]

Bills get the ball back in the second half.

Big drive coming up. Best case scenario is a long TD drive, but honestly they need to hol d the ball for a few minutes and give the D a break. They can't hold up like this without giving up a TD eventually.

Schobel is questionable with a groin injury, per V-text.

[Griff]

dear god that wasn't anywhere near him.

[shelby]

way overthrown...nice deep ball tho

[YardRat]

When the **** is TO going to put out a little bit?

[shelby]

here's a shock....we punt.

[Mr. Pink]

When the **** is TO going to put out a little bit?


I thought the same thing when I saw the play...I'm like really, did you just let up on that?

[shelby]

Custom order your Jairus Byrd jersey and receive a free 2009 Draft hat-a $30 value! Only at The Bills Store!

[jamze132]

This playcalling is absolutely stupid


2nd and long is not the time to throw the ball deep, especially to TO who doesn't really give a crap.

2nd and short is the prime time to throw the ball deep.

Oh and when you need 8 yards for a 1st, you should probably throw the ball to a receiver who runs a route at least 8 yards...

[shelby]

Nice hit by Poz!

[Griff]

This playcalling is absolutely stupid


2nd and long is not the time to throw the ball deep, especially to TO who doesn't really give a crap.

2nd and short is the prime time to throw the ball deep.

Oh and when you need 8 yards for a 1st, you should probably throw the ball to a receiver who runs a route at least 8 yards...

weren't you the same guy who said Shaub will get 300 yards if he just keeps throwing short?

[YardRat]

Scobel not being out there is going to hurt a little...

[jamze132]

The Texan's O is tearing apart this defense with these short routes. Leave it to Fewell to give them that part of the field. We will lose this game if we don't chage soon because our defense is going to be worn down by the end of the 3rd. Then the Texans will control the ball even more that they have throughout the 4th by running it down our tired throats. You read it here first.


Change the ****ing defensive scheme Fool.

[shelby]

somebody blew it there

[jamze132]

weren't you the same guy who said Shaub will get 300 yards if he just keeps throwing short?
Yep.

Totally differnt offenses stud. I thought you would have recognized that but again all you want to do is start ****.

[shelby]

way to go Stroud!

[jamze132]

Our O needs to move the ****ing ball and score this time. Our D really needs a break...

[NorthCarBills]

Come on offense....let's give the D a break for once.

[Griff]

Yep.

Totally differnt offenses stud. I thought you would have recognized that but again all you want to do is start ****.

haha whats the matter don't like your hypocrisy to be revealed?

[NorthCarBills]

Bobby April for interim HC (sarcasm off now).

[Patti120]

How many injuries can an O line have?

[jamze132]

haha whats the matter don't like your hypocrisy to be revealed?
How the hell is that hypocrocy? They are two totally different teams... Please explain.

[Patti120]

HOLD!

[honey]

God, now what?

[honey]

Go TO!!! Not bad...

[Patti120]

TO Sighting!

[Scumbag College]

We got to get Freddie in there, especially on third down screens.

[honey]

Dammit, Lynch. :down: and Dammit Fitz. :down:

[honey]

Good one, Jenkins!!!

[jamze132]

wow

[Patti120]

Jenkins looking solid on Sp. teams

[LondonDrev]

So many simple plays being left on the field by the offence. If we had anything above sub-par qb play we would be dominating this game. So frustrating.

[jamze132]

Man I wish we had a QB.

[YardRat]

C'mon defense...force a punt.

[honey]

Gosh darn it! 1st down for Texas. :(

[YardRat]

Jesus Christ...tackle somebody...ANYBODY...

[LondonDrev]

You just feel this one slipping away now...

[jamze132]

You just feel this one slipping away now...
Yup.

[YardRat]

No pressure...

[shelby]

our D is overtired or what?

[honey]

You just feel this one slipping away now...

Not yet. I still think we will win this one. :smile:

[NorthCarBills]

Here comes the beginning of the end. Shall we start predicting Dick's post game presser?

Great day for the defense.
Need to work more on offensive execution.
Will watch the tape and prepare better.
We'll continue to keep a close eye on Trent and hope he's ready after bye.
Hats off to Houston for being a good team and winning a tough game.

[YardRat]

Poz sucks...

[LondonDrev]

Schobel out is making a huge difference.

[Bufftp]

top is houston 28:37 to Buffalos 16:23

the D is tired

[Griff]

How the hell is that hypocrocy? They are two totally different teams... Please explain.

The Bills actually have the players needed for a short game.

[Griff]

Poz sucks...

yeah second in tackles with a FF sucks.

[jamze132]

Short passes are killing us, have been all game.

[shelby]

oh that sucked.

[Mr. Pink]

Coulda drove a truck through that hole.

[jamze132]

The Bills actually have the players needed for a short game.
Really? Then why the repeated failure by our offense to sustain a drive and our defense to stop a drive that invloves only short routes?

[Griff]

well unless we get a D or ST TD we're done.

[kscdogbillsfan1221]

and.......... that's game.

[YardRat]

Defense is worn out.

[Griff]

Really? Then why the repeated failure by our offense to sustain a drive and our defense to stop a drive that invloves only short routes?

drops/incomplete passes. In a short passing game you have to complete passes. You can drive all day with 4 yard completions.

[Mr. Pink]

Really? Then why the repeated failure by our offense to sustain a drive and our defense to stop a drive that invloves only short routes?


We have a running back who continually drops screen passes for one, two most of the routes we call underneath are stop routes or checkdown routes where the skill player isn't put in a position to do much of after the catch.

[Aliceinchainsbills15]

I still have faith the Bills are gonna win...:rain:

[jamze132]

So now we need an INT to stay competitve, because out O sucks ass.

[shelby]

this is brutal

[YardRat]

yeah second in tackles with a FF sucks.

Where he is making those tackles, yeah, it pretty much does.

Real MLB's don't give ground, or wait for the ball carrier to come to them.

Poz sucks.

[Patti120]

If that drive didn't sum up a DJ Offense then I don't know what does. Sweet fake by the way!

[shelby]

oh my Lord this sucks

[Mr. Pink]

That might be game.

But I do like going for the fake punt and taking a chance.

[jamze132]

And that's that. Horrible playcalling and execution once again does us in?

[YardRat]

Dumb-ass call.

Houston scores anything here = game over.

[Patti120]

I'm unfortunately not even gonna pretend we can win this one. Lets hope I'm wrong though.

[Bufftp]

The D is gassed

[jamze132]

Told you earlier...

[shelby]

almost 100 yds rushing for Moates.

[SeatownBillsFan21]

WOW this got UGLY real fast

[YardRat]

I take back what I said about Poz.

He doesn't suck.

He really sucks.

[Patti120]

Nice! I can finally settle down and concentrate on the game. This is sweet!

[shelby]

That's game kids

[SeatownBillsFan21]

Game over this RUN D cant stop ****

[LondonDrev]

Hate that fake punt call! With Houston offence destroying us in the second half, you give them the game if we don't get it. Vintage Jauron - no feel for the game.

Can't wait for him to be gone.

[YardRat]

Put in Hamden.

[NorthCarBills]

That's game kids

Well, not fun to think this way, but the sliver lining is that's one game closer to Dick's departure.

[honey]

Denver is losing, too. :sadwalk:

[YardRat]

Bobby April is a dumb-ass.

[Mr. Pink]

Miami has 5 first downs and is winning.

Of course, Ted Ginn returning 2 kickoffs for TDs helps.

[jamze132]

Now we have the ball again, lets let Lynch run it for 3 yards, then overthrow it deep to TO, then run it again for 2 yards, then punt.

[Patti120]

We are good!

[Mr. Pink]

ummmm?

Who screwed that one up? TO or Fitzpatrick?

[PECKERWOOD]

Detach.... detach... detach....

[NorthCarBills]

ummmm?

Who screwed that one up? TO or Fitzpatrick?

Is it possible both?

[shelby]

that was uuuugly

[Patti120]

The **** Gannon keeps saying about giving TO time off on Friday just shows how dumb DJ is.

Can't even bear watching this game, yet I know I will. does that make me insane?

[jamze132]

This is ****ing predictable, this offense has to be the worst in the NFL.

[Patti120]

I'm guessing our D buckles again right here. You with me?

[honey]

The **** Gannon keeps saying about giving TO time off on Friday just shows how dumb DJ is.

Can't even bear watching this game, yet I know I will. does that make me insane?

No, it doesn't make you insane. I'm still watching it, too. I guess most Bills fans are still watching....so, wait.....maybe we're ALL insane. :sadwalk:

[Griff]

This is ****ing predictable, this offense has to be the worst in the NFL.

something we agree on

[Patti120]

Damn, our D is really tired. Byrd and Corner did not want to get up.

[honey]

I wish the Bills could get a seasoned veteran QB until the young ones are ready.

Also, I wish we could get a defense.....

[jamze132]

Is there anyone on this board that didn't see us starting that drive with a run to Lynch and bomb to TO? :rofl:

[Mr. Pink]

Poz with a tackle 15 yards downfield!

Damn, he's good!

[PECKERWOOD]

The **** Gannon keeps saying about giving TO time off on Friday just shows how dumb DJ is.

Can't even bear watching this game, yet I know I will. does that make me insane?

I'm really started to get fed up with this team, and I'm not willing to give up my fan-hood.

It sucks, I'm really trying hard to detach from this team.

[Patti120]

WTH Happened to Byrd?

[Mr. Pink]

And Byrd's walking down the tunnel.

Not good.

[Bufftp]

top 37-19
D has nothing left to give. I don't blame the D.

[EDS]

When was the last time a running back did not have a career day against the Bills?

[Patti120]

Was that a midget trainer sighting?

[NorthCarBills]

Was that a midget trainer sighting?

gallows humor...lol
