We suck!

[JefftheBillsfan]

Travis Henry and Nate Clements were the only 2 players that showed up IMO. Eddie Robinson and Chris Watson, horrible, dont deserve to be in the league let alone starting. London Fletcher has been a horrible bust IMO.

[BillsMan80]

Gameballs: Henry, Clements

Goats: Williams, Gray, Gilbride, Riemersma, Bledsoe, Robinson, Watson, and I don't have the space or time to go on.

[lordofgun]

Eddie Robinson is officially a bust.

[shelby]

You are right! The white on white unis looked pretty sweet! I think we have found our new away combination!

I just hope we go throwback and wear the old Bills blue uniform against the fish for Thanksgiving weekend. That would be cool!

Goats:
Watson, 'nuf said...
Robinson, can you believe he had the angle on Pennington, and the dude gave him a head fake... bringing him to his knees?? My god!!! that was embarrassing... I can understand an offensive player falling for that, but a 10+ year defensive vet?
Riemersma, that guy is good for at least 1 drop a game... today he not only tipped a pass for an INT, but he ran the wrong rout on it!!!
Office, Schoebel, “Big” Pat Williams, Ahanotu, Edwards, and Irons were pushed all over the field today... they were an embarrassment.
Prioleau, Wire, and Jenkins all were miserable; making no noticeable plays, and biting badly on multiple PA fakes.
Bledsoe, poor day to throw up a stinker... of course he wasn't getting much help for much of the day from anyone.
The coaches, team came out flat... never had an answer for Martin, gave the Jets receivers too much room, never exploited the vanilla D the jets showed the Bills… no challenge on Jordan’s TD, that man never came close to the end zone.

Balls
Henry, good tough game, got his bell rung, kept fighting, was a good weapon.
Crosby, great lead blocking, clutch catches... Centers days are numbered.
O-Line, until the game got out of hand this unit gave Bledsoe time to throw, and opened some great holes for Henry... its not often you win the battle in the trenches and come up with the short end of the stick.

That's what I said too, JJames. :) I was thrilled the Bills were the first 1pm game finished yesterday. Usually they're the last. I was tired and I just wanted to get the hell home.

Watson still sucks in the Meadowlands! I've been saying since day one that he should've been cut 2 years ago when he blew the Jets v. Bills game in the Meadowlands. NOTHING HAS CHANGED! WTF the Bills have kept him is beyond me. Although, you can't blame the entire loss on Watson. The whole team sucked with the exception of Clements and Henry. During that one drive in the third quarter, it looks as though they were going to get things together, but once inside the 20, they can't score! Settling for 3 points instead of 7 is completely unacceptable!
