WildCard Posted November 9, 2015 Report Posted November 9, 2015 I can't believe he came down with that. Reminiscent of Megatron's one TD between three Dallas defenders a few years back. He does that twice more and I just might be able to hold off Ink and win my first fantasy game this year Quote

Doohicksie Posted November 9, 2015 Report Posted November 9, 2015 I'm so glad I'm not emotionally invested in the local football team (the Cowboys). Quote
Randall Flagg Posted November 9, 2015 Report Posted November 9, 2015 Anyways, I went to the game today. It's really weird, but through the entire tailgating, noise, food, etc., I still had way more fun at the Sabres game Saturday afternoon. Seeing Eichel live is beyond cool, the arena just gets a different vibe when he's out there. I'll never forget that game. As for the Bills, good win, and a must win. Pretty stoked about Thursday night game, despite the jerseys. It's a damn good weekend when you get to attend both a Sabres and Bills win :beer: We've gone over this in multiple threads True, joking is not allowed And there's Meh Cassel throwing a huge pick 6 Wait, you were at the game Saturday and didn't give us a summary in the GDT from the perspective of being there yet? I'm disappointed Quote
WildCard Posted November 9, 2015 Report Posted November 9, 2015 Wait, you were at the game Saturday and didn't give us a summary in the GDT from the perspective of being there yet? I'm disappointed I haven't been on in two days, but maybe I will now that I'm finally home Quote

inkman Posted November 9, 2015 Report Posted November 9, 2015 So the Sabres and Bills both play on Thursday night...:rolleyes: :wallbash: :( Quote
nfreeman Posted November 9, 2015 Report Posted November 9, 2015 He's so, so bad. For all of the consternation directed at Rex and the coaches, they deserve a huge amount of credit for 1) pushing Whaley to go get Taylor and 2) choosing him as the starter. For a team with playoff aspirations, it would have been so easy to go with the "safe" veteran who has had some "success" in the league before, but they made the bold (and right) choice. That is IT! I'm going to my room and not coming out for dinner! And yet, Cassel looked good enough last night to have been able to, say, get the Bills a W vs Jacksonville, innit? And 5-3 right now gets the Bills much closer to the playoffs than 4-4 does -- which was the whole point of getting Cassel, and the whole reason why dumping him was idiotic. Quote

And 5-3 right now gets the Bills much closer to the playoffs than 4-4 does -- which was the whole point of getting Cassel, and the whole reason why dumping him was idiotic. Last night, sure, but what about weeks before when he had 90 yards and 3 picks? You can't just pick one random game and say "see, look at that, that's a win if he does that against the Jags!" Can do the same thing with a random EJ game. What a terrible argument. EJ and Matt Cassel suck equally, deal with it. Edit: One more thing, how much do you think Cassel would have done last night without Dez? Because in magical fairly land where he's our QB against the Jags, he wouldn't have Watkins.

LGR4GM Posted November 9, 2015 Report Posted November 9, 2015 Tyrod being back helped but damn did our RB's just own the crap out of Miami.

That's crazy talk. Quote

Cassel is a mediocrity who certainly shouldn't be a starter but who still has enough game to come in as a backup and not lose games for his team. This year for Dallas he's kept his team close and given them a chance to win against 3 good teams. Do you not think the Bills would've won the Jax game with Cassel? Quote
inkman Posted November 9, 2015 Report Posted November 9, 2015 They don't have sports bars in Roch? Sure and I know the owner and can get it all set up for me. What will end up happening is that I'll end up watching neither as my attention is continuously diverted. Quote

WildCard Posted November 9, 2015 Report Posted November 9, 2015 So the Sabres and Bills both play on Thursday night... :rolleyes: :wallbash: :( Of course they are, wouldn't wanna make this easy or anything. Luckily we have 2 tvs going for that, so we'll be watching both @buffalobills: McCoy on his shoulder injury: "We'll treat it up. I should be fine for Thursday's game." https://t.co/RdUNtRcl2R Schefter agrees too Quote
inkman Posted November 9, 2015 Report Posted November 9, 2015 Without question. That Jags came will sting like crazy in Week 17.. Cassell may not have handed the Jags 21 points but he's not putting up the points EJ did either. He's god awful. Quote
shrader Posted November 9, 2015 Report Posted November 9, 2015 I watched the game late yesterday and fastforwarded through a lot. Did Kyle Williams (who really needs to grow some dreads, by the way) come back? I really didn't follow too closely. Quote

Cassell may not have handed the Jags 21 points but he's not putting up the points EJ did either. He's god awful. Exactly. I have no idea how anyone can watch Matt Cassel play football and pencil him in for a victory against anybody. He's not mediocre, he's horrible. In fact, I don't know how you can believe he's mediocre but also not believe he should be a starter--almost by definition, mediocre QBs should be starters on teams in the bottom half of the league. Three weeks ago Cassel threw 3 picks against the Giants...think that wasn't throwing the game away like EJ did against the Jags? He couldn't break 100 yards against Seattle, which while still a very good defense, isn't what it was the last two seasons. The last full game he played in Minnesota he had 4 picks. I don't have the faintest idea how Cassel somehow got a reputation as this decent game manager who doesn't turn the ball over or lose games for his team, but it is totally inaccurate. The worst part about him is that after he starts to cost his team a game, he doesn't have the talent to make the plays to get his team back in it. Edited November 9, 2015 by TrueBlueGED Quote
