Not yet. I made some minor tweaks to the defaults and the past 2 games are a lot better than originally had started. I will give them a whirl sometime soon if the shit starts hitting the fan again though. lol.

Wow. Lynch did work on that pass play. Dude was like, "Get the fuck off me!".

Nice update Mike.

Lynch was a fuckin mack truck this game. He also managed to run for a 95 yard touchdown as well but the highlight didn't show the part of him trucking across the middle and breaking free. Thank god. I threw 5 interceptions with Edwards. That was brutal. They were definitely threatening. Luckily, I was able to catch their onside attempt.

Awesome TD, he just wouldn't go down.

They tried to take his crack.

Trent Edwards 5INT, sheesh.

Tell me about it dude. Two of them were in the red zone. They know I'm looking for T.O.

:x

nice win, can you pm me your sliders?

Lynch Recognized As NFL Offensive Player Of The Week

Marshawn Lynch combined for a whopping 267 total yards and 3 touchdowns against the Buccaneers this week and has been named the NFL's offensive player of the week.

"I have to give credit to the offensive line," explained Lynch. "They put it out there and I just ran with it."

As much credit as Marshawn wants to give the Bills offensive line, he ran through whatever defender stood in his way and more importantly, helped the Bills hang on for a 31-26 win to lift the Bills to 2-0 on the year.

**goDawgs1433** · 08-17-2009, 08:03 PM

Nice, nice win mike. Lynch was an absolute monster, and I would continue going to him if the last game was any indication...and so Edwards doesn't get picked off 5 times, lol.

Was most of that because you were forcing it to T.O.? Looks like you need another receiver.

**Primetime** · 08-17-2009, 08:07 PM

TO & Evans is one hell of a WR duo. Just needs to make better decisions is all. Edwards isn't exactly a top notch QB either.

More than likely lol. I have a bad habit of just throwing it up to him when the pocket collapses around me and hoping he can get up and get it.

I really need to get acclimated with Lee Evans. The guy is good but I hardly look his way it seems.

Definitely not going to win many games giving the ball away like I did last game.

Yeah, I love my receiver core all the way down to WR 4 Roscoe Parrish who is a fucking speedster.

and no kidding at the edwards comment. rofl.

My receivers/Lynch are making him look good on paper yardage wise because of some big gains after the catch in these 1st 2 games. lol.

Week 3 Preview
Sunday, September 27, 4:05 PM @ Ralph Wilson Stadium

(2-0) vs (1-1)

If you're the type of NFL fan that likes high flying, over the top actionand a lot of points scored when all is said and done, this matchup is your cup of tea.

The Bills host the Saints in this week's matchup as they look to remain undefeated.

The Saints surrended over 500 yards last week in a tough 23-20 overtime loss to Donovan Mcnabb and the Eagles.

With the Bills currently ranked amongst the league's best in total yards thanks to a Terrell Owens and Marshawn Lynch led attack, the Bills could rack up yards fast against an average Saints defense.

While the Bills rush defense has been very good so far this season, their pass defense has not and with one of the premier quarterbacks in the game taking snaps for the Saints in Drew Brees, the Saints can easily put points up on the board just as easy.

Hope the scorekeeper's ready to put in a day's work today. My gut feeling tells me he is going to be busy.

Oh yeah, we should probably mention rain is in the forecast as well.
