inkman Posted September 15, 2014 Report Share Posted September 15, 2014 I thought I saw Marcel leaving the game in the fourth quarter with his leg wrapped yet I haven't heard any news on him. He's a huge (figuratively and literally) part of our D. What's going on there? He pulled a hammy stomping on some fishes yesterday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nfreeman Posted September 16, 2014 Report Share Posted September 16, 2014 Here's a Bills nuance that occurred to me: suddenly there's a real chance that GoDD's prediction about the Bills winning a playoff game before the Sabres winning a playoff series could come true (mostly inadvertently on GoDD's part, but still). Yikes! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnny DangerFace Posted September 16, 2014 Report Share Posted September 16, 2014 I like where the Bills are headed but I'm still not sold on Manual. He's mediocre at best. So hiis potential and best case scenario is being average. Even though in his second season as a raw player he is playing slightly above average? So best case scenario is he slightly regresses or shows 0 improvement? Being sincere because a lot of people think that, why or how do you come to that conclusion?

Please help me. And people who spell the Ric Flair exclamation as "whooooooo". That's the guy who plays first base, not the sound that they for some reason play after each Bruin goal.

Even though in his second season as a raw player he is playing slightly above average? So best case scenario is he slightly regresses or shows 0 improvement? Being sincere because a lot of people think that, why or how do you come to that conclusion? Because a Solid QB would have closed that Dolphin game out earlier. This team has weapons at WR and RB but the only problem I see is a mediocre QB. Lets face it they reached for this guy and he wasn't that spectular at Florida State. Doesn't mean he can't get better but I'm not gonna get my hopes up. I'm not sold on Manual at all. I know he's still young and hasn't really played a full season but I just don't think he's the answer to QB situation long term. You look at every good team year in and year out they all have solid QB's. Edited September 16, 2014 by SabresBillsFan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please help me. honestly...I've always written it like that. I have no rhyme or reason. Because a Solid QB would have closed that Dolphin game out earlier.

You look at every good team year in and year out they all have solid QB's. The middle of the o-line (specifically Pears and Williams) is more concerning to me than Manuel.

nfreeman Posted September 16, 2014 Report Share Posted September 16, 2014 Settle down. WOAH CHIEF! I'm just as optimistic as the next guy...but let's keep it together for a few more weeks, Not saying it's gonna happen this year -- but if we accept that there is NFW that the Sabres are going to win a playoff series this coming season, the Bills will have 2 bites at the apple before the Sabres get their 2nd one -- which improves the odds of GoDD being right.

darksabre Posted September 16, 2014 Report Share Posted September 16, 2014 (edited) Could someone please explain to me how and when "whoa" became "woah"? I see it everywhere. I do not understand. Please help me. "Whoa" never made any sense to me. I mean, I know it doesn't have a g in it, but it sounds closer to a word that ends in -gh rather than -oa. Putting the h at the end and leaving out the g works better. Cocoa, which comes closest, is a mistake anyway. The definition of Coco (for palm tree) was accidentally mixed with Cacao in a dictionary back in the 1700s and we ended up with cocoa. So for me, whoa is just a continuation of that. And incorrect. Cocoa is also, as far as I can tell, the only word in English that ends in -oa where the a isn't pronounced. Woah just doesn't make sense taking this into account.

But the joke's on him now that the two teams are one and the same. The whole idea that the management of one organization is better than the other is pretty much a thing of the past once this whole sale is finalized and Terry gets the chance to make some decisions.

Even though in his second season as a raw player he is playing slightly above average? So best case scenario is he slightly regresses or shows 0 improvement? Being sincere because a lot of people think that, why or how do you come to that conclusion? He's throwing for just over 200yrds a game with 1-2td. I think he has played/managed the games well in the first 2 weeks. As many know I disliked where they picked EJ and I am happy he is currently proving me wrong. That said his numbers are not far above average. He was 27 in attempts, 21st in yards, 15th in QB rating. Now to be fair we are a run team but right now EJ is being an effective game manager with some upside kinda like Russel Wilson. Of course if he becomes Russel Wilson, even I won't have any complaints. For now I will watch and see what happens. EJ needs to face more adversity and also I worry about his red zone ability. Still, he has proved me wrong 2 weeks in a row. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claude_Verret Posted September 16, 2014 Report Share Posted September 16, 2014 I'm not getting sucked in by the Bills until they are kneeling out the clock in a playoff clinching victory, but I will say that is as loud as I've heard that stadium since the Super Bowl years.
