“That’s a tough football team and a tough football game, and I take my hat off to the Buffalo Bills,” Suggs said. ”They came here to win, and there were times where they should’ve won. Remember, that’s the same team that put 30 up on New England. They’re a great offensive group. Those two backs (Fred Jackson, C.J. Spiller), I wasn’t a believer coming into the game, but I’m a believer now. They made some plays and broke some tackles. I’ve never seen backs do it like that on us.”

Re: Ed Reed: Bills should’ve won
easy to say after the game...wonder what the quotes would have been had they lost...
"we gave one away"..."we should have beaten a lesser foe"..."we made too many mistakes out there to win"....
For all the education and practice each of us undergoes, the achievment of mastery is ultimately the outcome of a personal quest for understanding.Comment

Re: Ed Reed: Bills should’ve won
Better than the laughing at us quotes/.I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?"
"Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet.
You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times."
It was all true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach.
He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.

Re: Ed Reed: Bills should’ve won
Probably true. But they didn't have to say anything positive about us at all. You get douche comments much more frequently from players...be it in a win or loss, pre or post game (like the no name Jet that was talking out of his ass).Originally posted by Ebenezer
So it's refreshing to hear a couple of gentlemanly comments. (not that you ever hear Ed Reed talking smack...he lets his play do the talking for him)Comment

The most promising quote...

Re: Ed Reed: Bills should’ve won
Basically what Reed and Suggs were saying was that they didn't even game plan, or much less practice this week.

Sad their offense probably did the same thing but still put up 37 points on us.Originally posted by jamze132Internet Breeds Complacency.

Re: Ed Reed: Bills should’ve won
He meant the players were just going through the motions and were looking past the Bills, which is probably true. They didn't even consider it a trap game, they were overlooking Buffalo so much. Really no other way to explain 500 yards of offense. Of course the Bills played nice and executed too, but it was a little bit of both.Originally posted by justasportsfanLast edited by RoscoeMagic; 10-25-2010, 03:13 PM.Internet Breeds Complacency.

it seems easier for the Bills to find ways to lose games than win them.Originally posted by yordad

Re: Ed Reed: Bills should’ve won
I'll give you a link to next week's box score in which the Bills don't have 500 yards of total offense, even against an inferior defense.Originally posted by justasportsfan
And a link to every Ravens game the rest of the year and I doubt they give up 500 yards.Last edited by RoscoeMagic; 10-25-2010, 03:25 PM.Internet Breeds Complacency.

Re: Ed Reed: Bills should’ve won
bills offense got the ravens real good. you saw that huddle at the 3rd or fourth quarter where Ray lewis was rallying the team.
it showed me that it wasn't just a fluke. I think the ravens chalked up good luck and over acheiving during halftime, and when they still found themselves battling for the game in the second half, they knew that there is some talent on the bills offense that was finding ways to exploit them.
I don't think this was just the ravens playing poorly. I think the bills really did shock them with solid play.
As for what they would have said if they lost, of course they would have dogged us. It's the only way to keep it positive.Comment

Re: Ed Reed: Bills should’ve won
I don't believe that for a second. It may be that the players did not expect the kind of effort that the Bills put up on Sunday, but after losing in overtime to New England, the Ravens would have put in a full week of preparation versus a high school team.Originally posted by jamze132I've made up my mind. Don't confuse me with the facts.
I'm the most reasonable poster here. If you don't agree, I'll be forced to have a hissy fit.Comment
