    In Game Rant

    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.

    Yup. And all I see is more of the same.

    Re: In Game Rant

    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.

    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.

    Re: In Game Rant

    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.

    Vanilla play calling has nothing to do with Fitz not being able to hit the broad side of a barn. When he's bad he's really bad.

    very true but there are some things to take away from this
    1. bell couldn't stop an old man in a hoover-round.
    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.

    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.

    Every year someone posts this. Every year what we see in preseason mirrors what we see in the regular season. Eventually we'll stop seeing this when people wake up and realize that this team f'ing blows.

    Re: In Game Rant

    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.
