Thinking of the success this team showed with the no-huddle on Sunday, it is hard not to reminisce. Also making it hard were all of the ancient highlights of yesteryear that were posted in anticipation of the start of the season.
I am nostalgic, and hold the past in as high of a regard as anybody. I am a baseball fan, and that goes with the territory, or so I'm told. I feel that way about the Bills as well.
Kelly and Co. were the best experiences I have ever had watching football...same for many of us, but it ****ing blows that we are all still clinging to the teams from 20 years ago...I can't believe it is that long ago. Why? Probably has something to do with the **** sandwich we have been eating since then.
Peyton Manning has recognized Kelly's skill at calling the play at the the line, and has given him credit as his influence. That is high praise. I sometimes think Kelly doesn't get his due, because I never hear him in the discussion for best QB's ever, or even of his day. What he did was revolutionary. We not only won, we were treated to a ****ing "don't blink or you'll miss it" all out assault on offense.
Although Sunday's game was a real barn-burner, we did show some promise with the no-huddle. At least the people in my section couldn't sit down. I was getting that hope that I get, usually only kicked in my nuts by Trent's fulfillment of his obvious mission to ruin my life...or my Sunday afternoons anyway.
Getting to my point...a day doesn't pass where somebody on this board talks about us finding the "next Jimbo," and no season passes without getting Kelly's take on the obvious void at QB (minus Flutie, albeit to a far lesser degree, in my eyes.) Drew was good, but wasn't going to win, and didn't. Then we all know the tale, all too well.
Kelly is never shy and always has a take on the situation, such as last years endorsement of Tebow, and the damnation of the dreaded California QB. He also has a job with this team, in some capacity, although I am not sure exactly what that is.
Where is Jim now? A guy that had a set of brass nuts and made throws that others wouldn't dare to...a guy that ran for the first or TD with reckless abandon for his body...a QB that ran the most exciting offense I have ever seen...the guy that isn't shy to share his "wisdom" (quoted for the debatable nature.)
Kelly even made an endorsement of Edwards during TC.
Why wouldn't we enlist his services to work with Trent and maybe help us turn the corner here? A little help with the hurry up, and we may just be a dangerous team again.
Evans, Parrish, and Spiller are three guys that can change the game in an instant with a lapse in coverage, which is exactly what the hurry-up helps us achieve.
I know we have been talking about this today, and that some feel Miami gave us that score because the went to prevent...let's just agree to disagree. We moved the ball, and we moved it well. The ONLY series of the game. If we aren't seriously considering this, maybe not full time, but sure as **** for more than one series a game, we are crazy.
I was having a hard time accepting the 3-4 argument...it is mighty hard to deny that now. With the exception of that drive, we have been more than pathetic against it. The entire division runs it. We switched because Gailey said it was hard to plan against...obviously.
We've got nothing to lose, and we have the master of the no-huddle around the organization.
Worst thing that happens is we suck out and lose, and end up with the pick everyone wants. I would just rather go down swinging, as opposed to seeing the **** storm that was on the turf on Sunday. Holy ****...I can't really take much more. It was sometime in the 3rd Qtr...as Morman fired off a pathetic looking punt, I just said, head in hands, "I just want my money back."
I don't want my money back, I just want something/anything to cheer for. If we get our dicks handed to us all year, at least let's score some points, let me see Spiller run wild...let me see a god damned skinny post up the seam!!!
