-Not sure what I want to make of this game. Am I happy the Bills won? Yes. Does this team still have serious issues? Yes. Should they fire Dick Jauron? Hell yeah! How the hell do you win a game giving up over 300 yards on the ground?! How the hell do you only win a game by only 3 points when you have 6 interceptions?-
– I know the talk of the town is going to be who should start at QB. I think you have to go with Fitzpatrick. Look, am I a big Fitzpatrick fan? Hell no. He was terrible last year in Cinncy, and had a passing rating of less than 60% today. But it’s not really about RF, it’s about Edwards. Is Edwards the better QB? Probably, but when you’ve struggled as bad as he has you have to think about the change. But to me, the topic is nothing more than a way to sell papers and air time on talk shows. This team still has QB issues no matter who starts. In other words, the Bills QB of the future isn’t on this team.-

-Thought the secondary played a great game with 6 interceptions tying a Bills record. Of all the crap the Bills scouting department gets, the one thing their good at accomplishing is finding decent players in the secondary.The most impressive defensive back was rookie Jarius Byrd. Byrd had two interceptions on the day, giving him 3 in his last 2 games. I don’t see how you can bench Byrd when Bryan Scott comes back from injury-

-I was ready to throw my computer or my couch through the TV screen during Jauron’s conservative play calling during the last minute of regulation. How the f$%k do you call two straight running plays at the Jets 30 yard line with a half a minute left in regulation? You’re going into the wind, Dick! Did Jauron forget about the Cleveland game from last year? Then he does the exact same thing in O.T. when the Bills were facing a 3rd and long at the Jets 30 yard line. I know some Bills apologists (Ron) will bemoan the fact they won, but it shouldn’t of been that difficult. Jauron should be kissing Mark Sanchez’s ass and Ryan Lindell’s foot-

-Talk about a tale of two halves. I was ready to fire Bobby April after the Bills special teams imploded in the first half. How the hell do you have too many men on the field during a punt giving the Jets a first down!? Then to top it off, Josh Reed and Fred Jackson looked as if they had never fielded a punt (Because they haven’t) when the ball glazed Josh Reed’s foot and Fred Jackson sat their in awe as if he saw a ghost. But the Bills special teams finally got it together in the second half, pinning the Jets deep inside the 5 yard line on a punt and getting a nice return from Fred Jackson to set-up the game tying TD drive-

-I still think Poz is vastly overrated as a linebacker. I know he had a big INT in O.T. and played with half an arm. But when it comes to going east and west, he just doesn’t have the speed you need. BTW, how the hell do you give up almost 1,000 yards in rushing over the last 4 games? The Bills have made Pierre Thomas, Ronnie Brown, Ricky Williams, Jamal Lewis, and Thomas Jones look like the OJ Simpson’s of the worlds. I’m not feeling next weeks match-up against the Panthers, who can run the ball pretty effectively-

-I will give the Bills credit, they never quit. They lost their starting QB after being made into a sandwich by half the Jets team. The Bills sideline looked more like a doctor’s office waiting to get treatment. I think a fan could of played a fun drinking game in deciding who the next injured Bill was going to be. There were moments, especially in the first half when the Bills could of easily been down by 2 touchdowns. But their wil..err Mark Sanchez’s errors kept them in the game long enough. I know most fans must of been thinking here we go again after Lindell’s game winning attempt at the end of regulation sailed wide right. Luckily, the Jets had some stupid penalties in O.T. and the Bills believed in themselves. God only knows, they’re the only ones that do-

-The Bills got a couple of monkeys off their backs today. Say goodbye to their losing streak against AFC East opponents (8) and teams with 3-4 defenses (10). Still waiting for the Bills to get their first rushing touchdown this season. And don’t even ask about a Bills QB going over 300 yards-

-That crashing sound you heard was Rex Ryan and Mark Sanchez’s honeymoon ending. The crap I’ve heard from Jets fans acting like Ryan is the next Bill Parcells (plus 300lbs) was propaganda at its finest. And if I have to hear fans compare Sanchez to Broadway Joe, I’m going to vomit. The only thing the two of them have in common is their love for the NYC nightlife-

-Did anyone tell Dan Fouts and Dick Enberg that it wasn’t a fake field goal in OT? How the mighty have fallen. Enberg use to call Super Bowls and Fouts, well..he was the 2nd biggest mistake in Monday Night Football history next to Dennis Miller-

-I know a win is a win, but I’m passed the point of getting excited when the Bills win ugly against average teams. Beat Carolina and Houston which could be winnable games, and then you’ll get me talking. Wait, those are average teams. Doh! Just get me to .500 guys!
