I agree, you kick it so they have to field it and that's game. It worked out though. Good for Tyler Bass 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JustOneParade Posted Sunday at 09:26 PM Report Share Posted Sunday at 09:26 PM Is it possible for a now 7-2 team to have a turning point for the positive? As a poster on TSW suggested, ‘that was the most un-Billsy thing ever’. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carpandean Posted Sunday at 09:53 PM Report Share Posted Sunday at 09:53 PM I'll have to admit that with the speed that they have, I was nervous when Miami started lateralling the ball. Rousseau just ran Waddle down with his own speed and size. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dempsey was born with no fingers on his right hand and no toes on his right foot, which was his kicking foot. His kicking shoe was squared off in a pretty striking manner. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doohicksie Posted Sunday at 10:38 PM Report Share Posted Sunday at 10:38 PM Well that was fun. There was a wedding in Dallas last night and a bunch of people came down from Buffalo (the groom's from Buffalo). They came out to Fort Worth to watch the game at Buffalo Bros. They brought big WNY energy, especially when Bass nailed the 61 yard field goal. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pimlach Posted Sunday at 11:00 PM Report Share Posted Sunday at 11:00 PM (edited) Another Bills win. Tough game, Miami had their season on the line and they needed it. Tua had no rust. I knew this game was going to be close. The Bills answered the bell like good teams do. The Bill are better, they are the more composed and better coached team of the two. I ALWAYS love beating Miami, I survived the Bills going “Oh for the ‘70’s” to that team. I am enjoying the win. Listening to McDermott’s post game interview, they mentioned his reluctance to play rookies very much. He made it clear that you earn your way on the roster and in the games. You have to beat out a vet, and McD has to be able to look that vet in the eye if the rookie takes his spot. He said numerous times “you earn your time on the field” and he makes that clear to everyone. He also has a knack for having his backups ready to go when injuries occur. He gets a lot of second guessing, so I’m pointing out a clear strength that he has. Contrast that to what Sabres coaches have to deal with no significant veteran base on the roster and young players given ice time by design, or because that’s all we have. I hope Adams heard what McD said. Adam’s roster building style really makes it hard on coaches, and for young players to develop properly. No wonder so many leave and thrive.

Dempsey played briefly for the Bills, at the beginning of the Chuck Knox era. I was at what I think was the last home loss to the Dolphins in the 70’s. Dempsey missed a 37’ish yard FG in the final seconds, it would have ended the streak. It was a rainy but warm game, I came home soaked and dejected. Thanks a lot Dempsey. The Bills ended that streak in 1980, and the goslposts at Rich Stadium came down. Bills fans were always rabid and crazy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scottysabres Posted yesterday at 02:25 AM Report Share Posted yesterday at 02:25 AM Well, on a positive note, just finished reading some dolphins fan forums. Ah yes, the not so muffled screams of pain from south Florida does in fact, lift the spirits. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eli Cash Posted 14 hours ago Report Share Posted 14 hours ago If you haven’t had a chance to watch McDermott and Bass in the locker room, definitely check it out. A great display of emotion. It appears Sean is a very good, decent man. And it appears that locker room is awfully close. This has been a fun season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guy has been literally fighting for his job for tryouts the last few weeks. Then instead of relying on JA17 heroics they played for the safe long kick. Which is as much of a compliment for JA17 as it is on the coaching. Then he pays dividends. Woo, not sure I could’ve done that. Must be why I’m no NFL coach Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwampD Posted 13 hours ago Report Share Posted 13 hours ago I know I’m going to catch flack for this from Idemo, but I wonder if they would have decided to kick it for the tie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
