    This brings us back to our statistic of the week: 1.87.

    Over Buffalo’s seven games this season, the ten running backs they’ve faced who carried the ball more than ten times against them are averaging 1.87 yards more per carry against Buffalo than in their other six games this season. Running backs are averaging 5.83 yards per carry against Buffalo compared to 3.96 in their other six games. The ten running backs who carried the ball more than ten times against Buffalo have accumulated 904 yards against them and 2,366 in their other six games.
    A 47% increase. Ugh.
    Lehner's history. He just doesn't know it yet.

    Right, there were a lot of issues there.

    With that much time on the clock, you're expecting at least 4 more possessions, the majority of coaches are not going to go for two at that time. Pittsburgh did it and was successful, but if they would of failed and the Bengals beat them by two, people would be screaming. Like just about any play, when it works it's great, when it fails the coach is an ass. Also if 2 point conversions are that easy, what would of stopped the Titans from making it 26-25. Besides a 1 point play in the 3rd quarter, should of made no difference, the Bills blew numerous chances to seal that game. Blaming the loss on Gailey's decision not to go for two points is foolish.

    without stopping the run we will never have a chance. our LB can't even fill out a college application... we need major change at the position.

    Two posts about the Bills

    http://www.buffalowins.com/buffalo-b...itztragic.html

    "That’s what’s made this whole Fitzpatrick saga hard to handle. We’ve gone through so much gloom and despair over the years that when this bearded brainiac played well enough to get the team to a 5-2 record in his first full year as a starter, most Bills fans couldn’t help but pine over him. Ryan played well, Buffalo won football games. In turn, he was rewarded with endearment from us and greenbacks from management. A camera couldn’t catch the guy without a smile on his face and who could blame him? His confidence was at an all-time high. When you’ve got a team built around you and it’s actually doing well, you can’t help but exude that."


    http://www.buffalowins.com/buffalo-b...t-the-bye.html

    Back in late August I was lucky enough to be a guest at the Bills Kickoff event at the stadium. It was then that I saw Williams with a cast halfway up his left forearm. At that point, I stated that if he doesn’t end up with at least one sack per game that he would be roasted by everyone with a Facebook account in addition to those in the media. Well, call me Nostradamus. Williams has been labeled a bust by some after seven games – because that is the intelligent approach – and now could be on the shelf with the surgery.

    I will not let fred Jackson die

    http://www.buffalowins.com/buffalo-b...-for-fred.html

    And you want to know what burns my ass more? Some didn't take notice that Jackson was coming back at less than 100%. Did people forget that he was supposed to be out 4-6 weeks after the Jets game? You saw that injury, right? Some of us thought it was a season-ender. 4-6 weeks. Well, Fred told the doctors to eat **** and he came back after missing just two weeks. He didn't just take some magic potion or press the select button non-stop like Little Mac did in Mike Tyson's Punch Out to regain his strength.
    He did it through hard work. He gutted it out.
    He didn't complain or act like a pussy like Tim Connolly. He put the f#$ken knee brace on and said where the hell is my helmet?! So how do some show their appreciation?

    Re: I will not let fred Jackson die

    Thanks, I'm a huge Fred Fan. He deserves more.

    ..and the Bills need to run the ball more.

    You put the ball in your playmaker's hands.

    Re: I will not let fred Jackson die

    I like Jackson too but Spiller is the better RB right now plus the RB of the future. The dude is balling and averaging over 7 yards a carry. He should be the focal point of the offense for the long-term.

    I'm also pretty sure with Spiller lighting things up at the end of last season and especially this season while Jackson was hurt that gave him some incentive to come back earlier then he could've. Last thing a player wants to do is sit on the sidelines with an injury while the other young highly drafted guy is lighting it up and making huge plays every game.

    I like Jackson and he should also be used quite a bit in the offense. The bulk of the touches and the focal point needs to be Spiller though. He is the future of the team and a big play RB that can get big chunks of yards at any time he touches the ball and usually does every game. That is what this offense is lacking the most are big plays. They definitely aren't happening in the passing game that often.

    This era of the NFL isn't about consistent long drives by small chunks at a time like it used to be. Most of the times them drives will stall. You have to be able to nail of big plays on a consistent basis. Spiller gives us that big yardage threat whenever he touches the ball.

    Re: I will not let fred Jackson die

    Love Fred Jackson - always will, however CJ Spiller is a better player. Either way BOTH of them should be getting the ball more.
    The last time the Bills made the playoffs was 1999.

    Re: I will not let fred Jackson die

    Freddie looked like he was much healthier last week, and yes, I agree that CJ should be the featured back. Too bad Chan is hardheaded and clueless and doesn't use both of them as much as he should.

    If you have about five minutes, this will explain a lot about Mario. The best is yet to come, but we will still get the worst next year.

    Re: This is your typical start for Mario Williams

    Why did you ignore Allen's 2011 season when he had 22 sacks in 16 games, and went sackless only three times?

    Marrio didnt sign a typical contract. He should have been making an impact from the start of the season to the end. The only streak he's made so far, is disappearing from one game to an other.

    To be fair, the entire defense (and team at times) has disappeared at various points in the season.

    Because I tried doing the same years Mario and him played. Mario only played five games. The overall point was as good as Allen was during those 5 years, he had a lot of games he didnt get sacks in. Streaky is the name of the game I think.
