    TV Coverage

    I thought that Don Criqui and Steve Tasker did a good job. Especially Tasker (comments about kick return positioning, etc.)

    He made several allusions to GW's somewhat tenuous status...I think he (too) was waiting for a GW special to sink the Bills.

              He mentioned a couple times that returners, depending on the wind, should move up or back prior to kicks. I specifically recall 'em saying that A. Brown should move up 15 yds 'cause the B'gals were punting into the wind. Tasker was right, Brown had to run to get the ball and gained little.

                Not at all. He pointed out some dubious play calls, mentioned about kr positioning, noted that the Bills db's were giving large cushions, and the like.

                On the OT td drive, when they were in the red zone, he observed that if the Bills were to pass, the fans would STORM the field

                  I thought they sucked. They seemed to be riding the Bills the whole game.

                  I am not sure how many times they mentioned that Bengals are getting ready to go deep and watch out because they are gonna go deep, but at least 10.

                  Criqui was saying the game was over with 8 minutes left, saying the Bengals were gonna win.

                    I saw Cruiqui at the limo after the game...you should have seen the cigar the guy was unwrapping...it had to be 8 inches long and an inch round...wonder what he would smoke if the Bills won a SB.

                      1) Well, the Bills ended up 3/15 on 3rd down conversions...not exactly a snappy performance.

                      2) B'gals shoulda gone deep...but I understand why at this point, for the B'gals, they're being a tad conservitive.

                      3) With 8 or so minutes left, the Bills to that point exhibited all the charming charisma of a turd

                          I'm actually glad that Tasker was being critical. That's his job. If he were acting like a homer in the booth for a national telecast, he'd look ridiculous in putting a positive spin on some really ugly football. He's a stand-up kinda guy, and he WAS very accurate in his assessments!
                          Someone said "What's he gonna turn out like?" Ha!
                          And someone else said "Never mind!"

                            Tasker's always been pretty good, IMO.

                              I guess your right about Tasker....It just sours me to hear a former Bill, and one of my favorites, be as critical....even though it is warranted.....I am just glad Madden wasn't there, he'd be using that damn telecaster to diagram the freakin wind
