  1. I keep hearing that the Bills are "a Hail Mary away from so and so ..." or, "but for the Hail Mary, we'd be ..."

     

    I kind of think it is because of that Hail Mary, though, that we are where we are. The Bills didn't take charge of that game. They gave Arizona a chance to come back because it was close. Since that game, they almost seem more focused and don't allow the other team to impose their will.

     

    In my mind, that loss may have been the most important game of the year.

     

    Just a thought.

    Pats fan here. When I saw it on live TV and on replays, I thought the hit was questionable. But I think this angle from the opposite side will change your minds completely:

    Allen actually is the one who turns toward Jones and lowers his head. It's surprising that Allen was the one injured and not Jones. There shouldn't even have been a penalty, let alone an ejection. 

     

    Jones gives away 50 lbs to Allen. Allen didn't slide and was truly a RB at that point. It was 3rd down, and Allen was going to fall forward for a 1st down if Jones didn't engage him. The other tackler Harmon hadn't really started to bring him down at the moment Allen & Jones collided.

     

    Nobody wanted to see the QB hurt, but Jones did nothing wrong here.

    Good lord. Jones is looking right at him and targets his head. He knew exactly what he was doing. Typical Patriot ballwashing.

  3. I'm planning on driving up from NYC this weekend with the trailer for the Miami game. Every search I do for information yeilds video after video of the lot selling out. Does anyone know if this is still happening and should I have a plan B ready?

     

    We should be arriving between 2 and 3 on Saturday and leaving Monday morning.

     

    Another question is can you disconnect and leave the lot? Any other info on staying in that lot would be greatly appreciated.

  4. he was there early - its often going to be called. if you swapped the jerseys wed be outraged by a no call when the corner got there early.

     

    with it so close they wont get it 100% right, but i think this isnt the call to claim refs are out to get you on

    Absolutely. I know this to be true because every other game we have played this year, when our receivers where hit early, I was outraged that there was no call.

  5. Did Chad Pennington really have the arm to knock anyone out?

     

    But seriously, I had to protect (ironically) a Jets fan from himself at RWS my last trip there. Nice young guy but a little too exuberant when things weren't going well for us. I told him I didn't want to get hit by anything thrown our way. He thought I was kidding, I think. He kept on until I told him I couldn't prevent a beating. There were some well liquored up youngsters a few rows back. When he realized I was serious he finally chilled out. It was testy for a while. I didn't enjoy that.

    I have always said that I would much rather be an away fan in the meadowlands than be an away fan at the Ralph. By a lot. There is just way less booze involved and New Yorkers are much more used to being around ex-pats who are fans of other teams.

     

    Most times, not all, you don't get knocked out unless you really deserve it.

    I was there yesterday and saw a couple of other Bills fans that could have used a beating. If there were that many away fans acting like that in OP, the amount of videos being uploaded would crash Youtube.
