Bills homers, whats the chance James Hardy makes a reception today?

 
Seriosuly other than a few games with TD's he has't looked that great at all. Last year he was a bull and ran all out every play like Barber does. This year it's hit first tackler and fall down. Not certain what happened to the guy but IMO Lynch is a #3 RB right now or a low end #2. If I can get something decent for him I am taking it. What a dissapointment

Does Hardy not get on the field in the redzone? Back in week 3 (i think it was) Hardy made a nice TD catch that was a high degree of difficulty, i dont get how they havent targeted him much since that, especially in the redzone.

SD punt downed at the 1 yard line; Bills challenged and lost, so they gave up their first timeout and start this drive at the 1.

must note Norv chose to punt on the Buffalo 40 yrd line, 4th and 3 inches. Wussssssyyyyy!

But SD's running game has been so poor today (13/28/0 not counting Jackson's reverse or Rivers' kneeldown), it is no given they would have gotten those 3 inches... sad but true.

Im not saying it was a given, just that Norv isnt coaching to win, hes coaching not to lose, hoping the Bills make a mistake.
 
Wow, Rivers intercepted in the end zone on 1st and goal. That is likely the key play in the game.

 
Maybe if Rivers would stop trying to be "the show" himself and run on 1st down, this crap wouldn't happen. I swear this kid wants to be the franchise sooooooo bad.

Sincerely,

LT and Keading owner

So Rivers is calling the plays?
 
Game over. Wow, Rivers had a great first quarter, but it went downhill pretty quickly after that.

 
Thru week 7, those who risked ADP before LT2... are looking much much better. So far, and looking fwd... that toe ain't right, and won't be ALL year. The 3TD 200 yd days are over.

 
:confused:

Hopefully McGee and Schobel will be back soon because the defense still needs some work. But they managed to beat a hot San Diego team and have a pretty soft schedule going forward. :thumbup:

I don't think your assessment of the reason behind Lynch's lack of yardage is accurate. The Bills' run blocking has simply been atrocious this year, being completely inept at opening holes between the tackles. Most of Lynch's yards have come after first contact. The guy has been basically playing kill-the-carrier against every defense he has played this year. Ya, it is puzzling why an offensive line that is so good at pass protection can be so bad at run blocking. The best argument I have heard so far is that the Bills linemen struggle so much due to their height... they are the tallest line in the league which some think prevents them from getting low and providing a sufficient amount of drive against the d-linemen.

Seriously, why isn't Brees throwing much more than 5-7 yard passes?

The Bills were playing a cover-3 or a very generous cover-2 all game to prevent the big play, but leaving the underneath routes open. Rivers was simply taking what the defense gave him. The Bills, in turn, were gambling that Rivers would make enough mistakes that it would not cost them.

I mean really you got to love bitter fantasy owners with unrealistic expectations....It's the same tough RB as last year running behind the same bad run-blocking OL as last year....

It's the least surprising part of the season thus far, right up there with the Lions not being good.

Yeah, weird statement. I thought Lynch was even running harder this year. The TD numbers are pretty nice, and his receptions are beyond realistic expectations right now. Seriously, he is probably averaging 25 yards less per game than pre season predictions. Are we really downgrading him to a #3 RB for being less than 2.5 fantasy points a game vs. predictions?
 
Bills have been :goodposting: in the 4th quarter this year. Great statement win coming off the bad loss before the bye.

Bring on the AFC East.

Mitchell's interception in the end zone has to be one of the biggest defensive regular season plays in recent memory. Absolutely huge!
