Why the final Niners play was definitely NOT holding
fan_in_tx replied to dave mcbride's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Take a look at the Safety where the punter ran out of the endzone. There was holding all over the place linemen were tackled. What's the point? Few seconds maybe, maybe someone hits the punter and causes a fumble. Point is throw the flag when you are suppose to throw the flag. -
Really? So your point is he sucks but yet good enough to start on a "great 9rs defense". An just so happens to be 3rd in tackles on that team. Your right. He could never make a play for the bills. Maybe cause he was too busy trying to cover everyone else lack,of effort? Typos. Hard to send on iphone.

Hmmm, I seem to recall a recent player who had that fire in his belly. Tried to motivate his teamates with his play and talk. Fans here ran him out of town and now he is playing in the NFC Championship game. Just sayin
-
per above Btw on 3rd and 1 Bills only ran 68% of the time, successful 77% 68% is more than half the time he ran .. but yes I agree there were some key situations where he did not run.. and probably should have. Additionally how many times did our Oline shoot us in the foot and move a 3rd and short to 3rd and Long or first and long? That is having trust in your O Line coach to fix the issue.

FWIW I'm a Chan Backer.. I thought he was a great leader and put together a great offense. If you actually watched the offensive schemes plays were there to be made just not executed. I think injuries to the WR core hurt Fitz and faith in Wanny led to his demise. FWIW.. Little Donte would have helped this defense much more than the G Wilson this season. Hindsight .

Really?? You use this analogy? "But that doesn't mean you let it affect your job so negatively. It's like when a soldier goes to war, the term is that to a large degree, they have to put their personal life in a box." Let's keep this in perspective and not compare the mindset of our soldiers who's job is to readlly give their life in a moments notice to an NFL Football player who's job is to play a game. I can easily understand if MD questioned the importance of what he is doing and maybe lost a bit of the taste for football after all he has been through regardless of the money he makes. And if he was in the military, knowing that people are really counting on him for life changing events then he may have delt with his grief in a manner that would satisfy your expectations. For me.. I'm glad he is back and playing, but I feel your comparision above is a little much for someone who's job is to play a game.

So who was the better coach at the Q Marty or Norv you ask? Well if you look at their winning percentage over their time in San Deigo, which of course in German means a whales vagina, they are almost exactly the same Marty .588 Norv .582. I tend to think Norv's first 2 years benefited from Marty building the team.

This is exactly what I am seeing. Cincy or pit will have 1 loss as they play each other. And cincy could quite easily lose to both pit and ravens. Both teams have to play dallas who are alot like the early season bills decent o no d. My fear is our season may officially end in 2 weeks against the hawks.

And the reason we lost to the Colts was.....
fan_in_tx replied to Virgil's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Last week Wanny had Kyle and darrius stand up at los on third and long a couple of times. They both got to the QB in a hurry would have liked to,see thaton todays 3rd and long? -
Spiller and merriman smiling at the end of game.
fan_in_tx replied to Silvercrw's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Both guys did all they could to help their team win why should they be upset? If. Chan and Wanny were smiling then i have an issue! -
What's so wrong with the bootleg?
fan_in_tx replied to Clippers of Nfl's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
For a bootleg you limit the field and avail receivers you can throw to by 1/2. Elway was good at this as he had a strong enough arm to throw to the back side reciever down the middle of the field if he was open. Heck I think I recall a few times when he threw to the opposite side of the field and completed passes. Fitz's arm is not strong enough for this type of throw. -
Lindell vs. The World
fan_in_tx replied to You herd it hear last's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Lindell has been great but next year I say we bring in this guy. http://www.okstate.com/sports/m-footbl/mtt/sharp_quinn00.html Bring in Thurman to start the lobbying process -
It's a cover 2 you have a safety sitting inside the left hash at the goal line providing over / under coveage on Stevie with the corner. If you watch the play the linebacker releases Stevie to the corner and peels back on spiller.. corner is looking inside and slows abit and safety starts peeling towards middle of field following Fitz's eyes and throw to the right side of the field (from QB view). If Fitz throws to Stevie it is picked. Spiller and maybe Jones ( If he throws to inside shoulder) are the only other options.

Zebra Report aka piss poor officiation
fan_in_tx replied to justnzane's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Suprised no one mentioned.. 2nd and 9 I believe Moats beat his blocker from the left side on path to QB when blocker hooked his left arm over Moats shoulder and road his back to the ground at Brady's feet. No Flag... Nothing.. But Glenn gets the call when his defender is no where near Fitz after Fitz released the ball. -
Hit on Fred..How is that not called??
fan_in_tx replied to Bufcomments's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
There was one on Chandler earlier in the game as well pass down the right seam defender hit helmet to helmet without ducking down or anything defender had to jump up a little bit. This knocked chandler backwards a bit should have been called but wasn't. -
McCourty is only listed at 5 10 and backpeddling so his jump in the air would take more effort and look more difficult than a 6' receiver 5 yards in running forward. I'm sure Graham would have been able to leap and catch had he cut inside. Additionally if you look at the 00.03 mark and compare to the 00.04 mark you can see how much space is open in front of the defender in that area. Everyone clears the area.. Graham cuts in front easy TD.. Spiller I believe was outlet on that play but again the play design is really really good you have a receiver who should be open in front of a defender with nothing in between him and the QB

BILLS @ PATS 11/11/2012 Game Thread
fan_in_tx replied to TakeYouToTasker's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Look at the throw from behind Fitz i guarentee he was expecting graham to cut in front of defender like stevie has done many times on that same pattern. Its a timing throw. Receiver tstayed in the seam -

BILLS v. TITANS, Oct 21: Game Thread
fan_in_tx replied to TakeYouToTasker's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
FWIW... Hold on Aaron Williams on first TD ... No Call. Hold on Barnett second TD lineman had arms wrapped all the way around him -
Have you ever seen TJ play? I have, and feel very comfortable in saying he will be an upgrade to Ryan Fitz when he steps in. You will not look back on decision as he is a pretty accurate QB and very mobile. One of his biggest problems in Minn was he had a decent first year and had more trouble in year 2 as all new QB's seem to have in eyear2. Farve came in year 3-4 thus not giving him any time to develop. In SEA he had a new coach new system to learn and actually played decent. I think Chan, like he did with Edwards wants to give Fitz every chance to succeed, but he is missing open receivers.

So was there any explanation about that pseudo first down?
fan_in_tx replied to Rubes's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Zapruder had a bad camera angle as well. Just ask Arlen Specter (RIP) with a better angle you clearly see the fatal shot as coming from the Depository and not the grassy knoll.
