Good read.


The Bills are simply a group of pals from whom nobody expects much, so they might as well do all they can to win. Gailey's mismatch-exploiting offense has spurred the resurgence, which began last season with a 4--4 finish after an 0--8 start, but at times he has wisely yielded to the force of Fitzpatrick's personality and analytical skills. Two weeks ago against Oakland the Bills scored on all five of their second-half possessions to erase a 21--3 deficit, with Fitzpatrick often improvising in the huddle. "He was pretty much drawing plays in the sand," says Nelson, who caught the winning touchdown. "Stevie, you go inside here; David, you go outside there. We were calm, collected, we felt like we knew what we were doing."

And to think little more than a year ago, many here wanted him run out of town.

Shows how little we actually know.

Even those members of this forum that are considered to be experts have been dead wrong about a lot of things.

We're just silly fans with 24/7 internet, meaning we have more info than ever.

and we still know next to nothing, concerning sports. :nod:
