Its just pre-season... the regular season games are what counts!!


Coach Williams is so enthusiastic about the home opener, he says they've game planned for it for sometime and that he cant wait for the opener.

he also talked about our first teamers and that they'll be in there for 1 series ..not more than 2.

Last week, there were a lot of Running plays that Drew audibled out of when he saw very favourable matchups and that its great to see him exploit defenses that well.

he said that he really liked out ST speed and that he likes our return men but says that he doesn't care how much speed they have, if they put the ball on the ground, they wont be around with the team.. they're driving him nuts.

Joe Burns will play against first teamers today.

[venis2k1]

Jennings is sitting this one out too.

[TypicalBill]

players out today are:

Henry
Jenniings
T.Brown

[TypicalBill]

here we go


75'F .. low wind ... great football conditions

[TypicalBill]

Detroit will receive the ball first

[venis2k1]

Lets go D.

[TypicalBill]

Stuffed Stewart .. just a 2 yard rush on 1st down ... and then on 2nd down they gained 3 yards.

[TypicalBill]

3 and out! :D

[TypicalBill]

Winfield breaks it up from Charles Rogers :up:

[venis2k1]

Nice showing from the Defense

[TypicalBill]

[venis2k1]

[ArcticWildMan]

Schwing!!!!! A special teams TD!!! Who would have thought it!!!

[saviorbledsoe]

I posted this earlier today on what was supposed to be the Game Thread.......

BUT NO ONE GET HURT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thats all I have to say about tonight

NOW BRING ON THOSE PATSIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[venis2k1]

They are driving on us

http://www.nfl.com/gamecenter/live/NFL_20030828_DET@BUF

for updates

[TypicalBill]

a lor of the 2nd teamers are already in on the defensive side ... they're getting valuable playing time against the Lions 1st team O.


Darn , looks like RB Stewart got injured

[venis2k1]

Stewart is running all over our front 7.

[saviorbledsoe]

Im not sure you have to pay for this broadcast.....it didnt ask me to sign in or anything.....go to buffalobills.com and click on Listen Live...it might let you hear it.

[venis2k1]

I was wondering why Super Mario Haggan made a tackle.

[TypicalBill]

Shaun Bryson is in against us now.. remember him?

[TypicalBill]

Harrington Sacked!! By Wire on 3rd and 18!

[The Spaz]

Sack Coy Wire Woo Hoo!:)

[ArcticWildMan]

Can't listen to it. Have to pay for it. That sucks :down:

[TypicalBill]

we'll start from the 10 ... 42 yard punt.

[venis2k1]

coy's our boy.

[saviorbledsoe]

If you sign up to listen it costs 10 a month but if you cancel within 7 days you dont pay......Just an FYI

[ArcticWildMan]

I'll save the 7 day trial for the real season.

[ArcticWildMan]

OK...time to see what our 1st string offense can do...

[venis2k1]

Wire is on Fire, hes having a great game, 3-1 and a sack in just 7 minutes.

[TypicalBill]

2 runs so far .. just 2 yard gain... its 3rd and 8

[The Spaz]

James Stewart has suffered a bad shoulder injury no further details of yet! :(

[TypicalBill]

thats it... Bledsoe completed a short pass but not a 1st down ... we wont see Bledsoe again ... and im so glad for that!!

[ArcticWildMan]

Wow!! Every team we have played has suffered a serious injury.

Are our guys hitting that hard or is it just a fluke?

[saviorbledsoe]

Why are they so sure Bledsoe is done for night? Why even put him in at all if its for 1 series?

[venis2k1]

is van pelt gonna play most of this game?

[The Spaz]

He's done for the night thank god!

[The Spaz]

Coy Wire leveled James Stewart causing the injury!

[TypicalBill]

Aaron schobel gets Bryson for a loss, 5 yards to be exact... and on the next play, Bryson fumbled and we recovered.


BILLS BALL

[The Spaz]

Ryan Denney wit the strip and recoverey!:)

[ArcticWildMan]

Who's talking about him being in the HOF he made a play and that is what we want.

[venis2k1]

[The Spaz]

[Billsouth]

why is it that when guys like kelsay produce people get angry (like ritalin... spaz) and start being sarcastic. do u want our guys to be busts? be excited when our rookie makes a good play. remember the glass can be half full.

Umm I was being serious! I was talking about how Wys thinks Denney and Kelsay will probably be busts. Also stop assuming you know what that means right!:)

[Billsouth]

i mistakenly mentioned spaz when i meant some others who are clearly too pessimistic.

[Billsouth]

spaz i was typing when you were i stand corrected

[The Spaz]

Glad we got that solved becasue I definatley am not a negative nancy...lol:)!

[TypicalBill]

Olandis ran twice for 15 yards .. 8 and 7 yards respectively..

[honey]

Fumble and recovery! Thank God!

[lordofgun]

If Gary doesn't hold the ball, he's as good as gone.

[venis2k1]

[yle]

That's 2 fumbles for Gary :angry:

[The Spaz]

Wow nice throw by Jonson unlike Brown...lol:)!

You need to find yourself a sportsbar that has NFL Sunday Ticket and like 5 or 6 TVs.

[venis2k1]

he is getting paid at least 250,000 bucks a year, he better do more than just Long Snapping on punts.
