    Seriously?  Why were the Jags just in the AFC Championship a couple years ago? Was the NFL worried about their north Florida stronghold and just threw them a bone for once???

    Well, hold on now, our stadium is on the river, AND we have swimming pools INSIDE the stadium, AND you can be swimming in those pools as the game is going on!!!

  2. I don't think that this would be called even once out of a thousand times, but after analyzing it like the OP did, he's absolutely correct. The guy definitely did willingly come off the DB and go straight back toward Edmunds to block him.

     

    And the hold on the DE/DT happens on about 90% of edge runs. They call it when they feel like it, I guess. It's the same old problem I've been bitchin about for 30+ years.....that NFL refs have no consistency from one game to the next, or one crew to the next, or sometimes, even in the same game from one half to the next half. LOL

    Hard to believe the Texans only had 4 penalties all game

    And two of those were intentional delay of game calls, as they wanted to back up a little to give their punter more room.

     

    I agree that it's absolutely mind numbing that Hou had no holding calls called on them all day...offensive or defensive.....considering that most NFL watchers agree that holding occurs on every single NFL play, somewhere on the field.

    Missed the play where Wentz got injured. I saw the replay later and I'm wondering how Clowney stays in the game after he spears Wentz in the back of the head??! Did I miss something? why no ejection?

    I also missed it "live" and just viewed it.....ARE YOU KIDDING ME THAT THERE WAS NO PENALTY?!

     

    Looks absolutely like a willful use of the helmet to spear, and take out the QB. We all know that Defensive linemens' not so secret ultimate goal has always been to "Kill the QB", and it looks like that's exactly what Clowney  was doing here.

    Has anything else been offered as to why in the world we didn't kick deep to pin the Texans down giving us a better chance to get field position on the last drive making a TD possible?

    There is a reason I call the guy "McDummy!" LOL

    I'm tougher on JA the most part but I thought he played very well. Fans of other teams seeing him for the first time thought so as well generally.

    Umm, listen, I hope & pray that JA comes around next year and turns into the 2nd coming of Jim Kelly......but from what I've seen to date, most people around the nation do NOT think highly of JA. (As seen in a Chiefs forum linked by someone else earlier in this thread)

    Well, I am  not amused by the "realist" crowd who think that those with a different take are all a mob of "rainbows & butterflies" optimists.

    I have NEVER told any other poster in here to "get lost" or "go away" or "stop posting" or "stop being a Bills fan" or anything similar. I have never put anyone on "ignore." I would never personally attack someone simply for their football opinions, because they vary from mine.

     

    YET, I have seen members of the "trust the process" brigade do ALL of the above simply because somebody doesn't "tow the company line" and/or agree with their takes....like was done to me in this thread by TH3.

    Allen and Mcbean gonna be around for the next 5 years....you should consider taking them off as a Bills. Fan

    LMAO. Says who? You? Unless McDummy does a complete 180 from his abysmal time management skills, and idiotic offensive play-calling in crucial gametime situations, he will be gone, because they will NOT keep winning games with those mistakes. This year, for all intents & purposes, they only made the playoffs because of their weak-a$$ schedule.

     

    I'm always amazed...and amused....that some Bills fans think that if other Bills fans don't drink the Kool-Aid, and "trust the process", they should just go away and/or be banned from the rainbows & butterflies brigade in here. LOL  The actual reality is that usually, those of us who are NOT drinking the Kool-Aid, are correct about things.

    So why didn’t they review that? 

    I'm sure that they did review it. In OT, in the playoffs, ALL reviews will be initiated by the booth. So, IOW, they are closely watching EVERY play, and if they see something that needs further review, and/or see something that they think they may want to change, they'll radio down to the field to hold up things.

     

    In THIS case, they obviously were "good" with the TD.

    Arguably the worst playoff team of the bunch after today's showing....much like 2017.  The players have changed but the outcome is the same.  

    Yep. I really thought that this year was going to be different, but sadly, AS OF RIGHT NOW, they are the "same old Bills" we have seen for the past 25 years. They could have, and SHOULD HAVE won that game yesterday, but they didn't.

    The airport thing is so passe...

    I agree. I've seen video from a few of these "welcome home" rallies, and it's ludicrous (to me) how they keep the fans behind a barbed wire fence, so unless the player(s) ventures over to the fence, the fans are ignored, and get zero "feelies."
