Game Thread W2 - Buffalo V Green Bay (1 Viewer)

Hey Trent, if you're going to throw INTs anyway, you might as well chuck it down the field and try to pick up some big yardage instead of turning the ball over and STILL only having 40 passing yards partway through the 3rd quarter.This guy is a loser. I thought he was finally ready to throw downfield a bit more but obviously that's not happening. If you can't throw downfield and keep turning the ball over on short passes, then what good are you? Yeah, the O-line is terrible, but QBs have to do SOMETHING to help the team gain yardage.This defense is playing well for the second week in a row with nothing to show for it.
Let's be honest, that INT wasn't his fault. Steve Johnson alligator-arm'd it because he knew Matthews was about to light him up.
 
Kuhn is doing nothing but closing his eyes and falling forward for 3. Why are giving him so much time over BJAX?

True, but I'm just seriously tired of these 2-8 yard passes. Enough. I don't care how good a defense is or how many good RBs you have, if your QB constantly throws for 100 yards a game, your team is going to lose. Completing 20 of 28 passes for 100 yards isn't a good game. It's awful. And it seems like that's what Edwards would be happy with. You'd think he'd at least have enough pride as a QB to want to see some decent numbers next to his name. If the Bills are going to lose, I'd at least rather see them airing it out a bunch and trying to put up some scores rather than try to win games 9-6.

He didn't have time to go long on that play. Green Bay is bringing the house on just about every passing and the line can't handle it. And in the rare instance that the line does hold up, Edwards is so shell-shocked that he's firing it early.
 
Still showcasing Lynch down by 20?
What a mess. Gailey's staff was supposed to be great at making in-game adjustments and the game plan hasn't changed at all since the first half. The fact that the team is down by 20 in the 4th quarter and you are still calling HB dives and WR screens is a joke.

Well, if you don't throw downfield against single coverage when they bring the house, or throw some screens, then of COURSE the defense is going to keep coming all out.
 
:unsure: Epitome of the Bills season: Bills have 12-men on the field AND are offside on the same play, and Rodgers still hits Jones for a 30+ yard TD.
 
Nice return, CJ! Now go return to the bench. Stay warm though, I'm sure GB will be kicking off again soon...

 
Let's start predicting Lee Evans' passive-aggressive comments to the press this week on Trent:

"Well, we are just not executing and being aggressive enough."

"I don't know what the problem is, I run my routes, but I don't see the ball. We just have to try harder."

"We are not in sync yet. We have to keep working on it."

"I don't know if it's the plays or the execution."

 
Just did a little freelance research.

Starting at the last 6 games of the 2008 season, through 2009, and the first 2 games of 2010, the Bills have had just 5 200-yard passers in 24 games. Edwards had 3, Fitzpatrick had 2.

* assuming Edwards doesn't hit 200 in garbage time here.

Evans has been targeted once today. ONCE.I so want a team in LA/OC to root for. I hate this organization.
 
saw the game at Lambeau today - great location, great time, great fun, lousy game. 1st time I got to go to a game there. Makes going to Badger games boring, and their pretty fun times in Madison.

Rodgers for the second week does not look like he has it together - a number of bad passes, several that should of been ints. Fortunately, it was the Bills, so he spanked them. Bears D will make him pay if he keeps that up.

None of the backs looked any good, but I have to say it wasn't like the o line was opening any serious holes. Baby Beluga got to play most of the game, looked good. Not really sure the packers have to have a running game to win.

Clay Mathews frightened me, and I was 50 rows up. That man is a beast. AJ Hawk had a decent game, even played some of the nickel coverage.

There is nothing about the Bills that impressed me. Seriously bad team. Packers should of beat them by 50.

What was the coverage like on Buffalo's receivers? Were they really blanketed or was Edwards just afraid to throw it down field?

:( With your luck, it will be the Bills moving to LA when Wilson dies.

Bills were very run first orientated, even when down by 20. When their were recievers open, he seemed to hit them in stride. He certainly did not seem to try to "fit" any passes in. Coaches called run, they ran. I think his qb rating in the 1st quarter was 27, for the first half about 40 (according to the scoreboard)Not a pass oriented team. I was hopeing to see Lee Evans catch some passes (being a badger grad and all), but nothing.
 
Jordy Nelson looked great on the kick return game, had a few good recpts in the game.

If your league scores yardage on kickoffs, Nelson might be a productive flex player. He looks very good, and I think it is because of the special teams unit as much as Jordy. He consistently is getting to the last 1-2 defenders. I wouldnt be suprised if he gets a couple of return tds.

So that's it - Mathews and Nelson looked great, the WR looked good, Rodgers looked good to average, RB were below avg, D as a whole looked good (but it was the Bills)

 
Now that the coffee has kicked in -

Crosby is a machine. Not only dead on in the kicks in the game, but pregame that man is a hammer - kicking it out to 59 yards in warm ups, with enough leg on the kicks to go 65 easy. All of them dead on. Boom Boom Boom for at least 45 minutes. Not sure what changed from last year, but he is very focused at the games this year.
