very true! Chad’s a great tease. He played really well outside of the first quarter, and definitely had me scared at the end..But honestly, I have no doubt if he was still our QB we would have been on the loosing end of that interception in the endzone..
i was really happy to see we were able to run the ball, and the offense generally looked good! Conservative in the end there really almost killed us..
gholston looks like he has only one move! he pretty much only bull rushes, and gets caught usually around the line of scrimage.
moving shaun ellis around worked well.
Nugent let us down, again. He is more and more doubtfull in pressure situations. He is starting to look like Brien all over, again.. Mangini must bring in someone that can provide that warm, fuzzy, secure feeling on field goals.
Hey everyone:
I was pretty upset about something yesterday that I heard reiterated by Chris Carlin this morning:
I totally am in the Tangini camp (notwithstanding my displeasure at what I thought was mismanagement almost leading to the loss of Chris Baker, a valuable player)… but HOW ON EARTH is there not a position player, or even the punter, who was prepared to kick extra points!?!?!?
In high school, one of our wide receivers kicked field goals, and he could pretty consistently hit FG’s inside the 50. I’m 100% confident that a few position players on the JETS routinely kicked extra points in high school and could’ve easily stepped in to do that in the NFL, if they were PREPARED TO DO SO!!!
Bad oversight, but hopefully that’ll be fixed and they’ll have some guys practicing XP’s for a few minutes a day!
Yes, the Bills are as good as they looked yesterday, and - looking outside the division into the conference - so are the Steelers.
The kicking situation is dreadful. We beat Miami without a kicker but don’t count on that happening against New England.
Nugent needs to go.
