1) Our pass defense is atrocious
2) Our oline is horrendous
3) Those who call Fitzpatrick Fitzmagic must have seen some awful magicians growing up
That's all for now

You do know this is preseason, right? Parrish is out, Merriman is out. Vanilla play calling. Settle down.
Until we lose our 8th game, we are going to the Super Bowl.Originally Posted by jmb1099

Yup. And all I see is more of the same.Originally Posted by cpearl
And we let Willis Maghee score two touchdowns.
The year the Bills played the Skins in the Super Bowl, when they were, by far, the two best teams in the league, they went 0-9 combined in preseason.
The year Detroit went 0-16? They were undefeated in preseason.
"Miami played pretty damn good today and still got their ass kicked."
Yup, its only preseason, just like the last 11 seasons. I'm not trying to be a wet blanket, but if you're happy with what you've seen in this game than I don't know what to tell you.
I don't care whether we win or lose. Our offensive line sucks, our WRs suck (although no fault of theirs), and Fitz has been anything but consistent.

2. losing evans to trade has affected the pass game
3. starting defense lost its umph after the first series(granted without merriman)
4. our corners don't look like t6hey can cover much either
5. the first sign of fight out of the offense came after a bad hit to nelson
JMO tonights starting performance=![]()
thats whats up
I hear ya. Just playing a little devil's advocate. I have little doubt we'll be terrible, but you gotta admit that they're not running any plays that they will in the regular season, especially since we play Denver this year.Originally Posted by jmb1099
Worse OT's in the league
Agreed. But we have to execute on the plays we are running and we're not. We're in for another long year I'm afraid.Originally Posted by Thurmal

I'm listening on the radio, and it's been a tough game to listen to. I know I miss a lot of what's going on with audio only, but it sounds as if Fitz has been very inaccurate, except for the interception, when he was on the money and Easley let it bounce off his hands.
I get the argument that it's preseason and there are players missing and the play calling is bland etc. etc. ad nauseum. But the other side of the equation is Denver is executing. Both Orton and Quinn have been on target, and the running backs are exposing weakness in the Bills pass defense and finding all kinds of room underneath.
I'm hoping against hope that Tyler Thigpen figures out how to throw the ball in the thin atmosphere in the second half.
I've made up my mind. Don't confuse me with the facts.
A wise man doesn't waste effort telling the world he's wise. If it's true, it will be self-evident.
Torbor has been horrible. Gave up a 25 yd catch to TE, and didn't get out in time for McGahee TD. The OL playing well is Wood.
Torbor is a deep reserve on most teams.
It's been hard to watch. Not giving him an excuse, but Fitz has been pummeled on nearly every play. But Quinn under pressure is completing passes. Fitz is all over the place.
Yeah, Roscoe should definitely fix all this.Originally Posted by cpearl
