I wonder if there is any information on how many times an opponent starts back at the 10 or 15 because of blocks in the back or holding.

Just Just a little sarcasm, Lime. Relax, I agree with you.

Watch it. No politics allowed.

All weekend the refs were not calling all the ticky tacky penalties. I think that is a good thing. Others may disagree.

it was actually 21-0, then it was 14-0, and then 17-0.

I thought that he had a generally very good game. He was beaten deep once and looked slow on that particular play. That is probably how all DB's look against Hill. He was in the middle of everything. It's good to have him back.

It seems like the Bill's offense plays better when in the hurry up mode. Is there a good reason why we can't do that a little more often ?

Wasn't Jefferson a late 1st pick ?

Yep.Went to the Super Bowl XXVII game in Pasadena. We also went to the London game 6 or 7 years ago. Both times from Buffalo.

Agreed. Especially when the hold is of the tickki- tackki variety on the other side of the field. Automatic first downs on a 3rd &35 should be changed. I don't have a perfect solution. Perhaps 10 yards but not an automatic 1st down.

DB's seem to be holding one arm, forcing the WR to attempt one handed catches.

ditto

walking , talking hamstring.

Hank Bullough: That'll take the sails out of his wind.

Right. It's very frustrating to have to look for a yellow flag after every great play. I have suggested for years a partial solution for at least some of the OL holding penalties. It should be mandatory that every Guard and Tackle wear a modified mitten , something less bulky but similar to a boxing glove. I realize that OL would still be able to arm bar and essentially tackle a pass rusher, but I think that it would reduce the flags which we all find annoying.

Why does anyone care about a thread title. Geez.

This. Even if he had to run backwards a few yards to get out of bounds.

Early season games in Miami should all be 4pm games.

I think that the Ravens like his backup a lot. That makes it a bit easier to let Lamarr go for a bundle of picks. There is nothing wrong with his arm strength.

hits ? What hits ? His vision was so good that I never saw him take a big hit. I rate him right up there with Barry & Jim Brown.

Blackshear looks like a steal.. Speed, shiftiness and pretty good size.

The blocking seems fine for our other guy.

Only if he stops running into the backs of his blockers. Maybe he needs glasses.

This. I was just going to say that baseball pitchers not only throw hard, they also are snapping their elbow every time they throw a curve or slider. As an aside, I've played HS and College basketball and I have yet to see a torn ACL. I'm sure there are some but it is seldom compared to football. Lots of starting stopping and twisting but just a few knee injuries compared to football.

How is arm length measured ? Is there a margin for error ? Can a 30 1/8 really be a 30" ?
