Sanchez simultaneously crapped on Motor for not scoring while saying the Dolphins should have dragged him into the end zone.
The only real excuse for him going on about that is for entertainment reasons, i.e. he knows Miami getting the ball back & trying to tie >>> one kneel and a field goal sans the "ice the kicker" routine.
Honestly about 90% of the commentary was fine. I just thought a former QB should go easy on labeling other QB's as actors, especially if it's not egregious.

I thought it was accurate then thought Josh and Bella said and good for him it worked
Hopefully one day when you're a franchise QB, you can get hit out of bounds by a defender and show us how exactly to fall. Sanchez could have, but he was too busy fumbling his career away.

Not sure that a literal translation is going to be very helpful or necessary, as there were no subtle points being made. His tantrum was simply about hating Belichick and he can't handle the Pats* glory days being long gone. I feel very badly for him.
What possesses someone to rant like that - and then post it to social media?
I don't. Make sure we all appreciate the era we've been lucky enough to find. Yeah, we don't have a ring yet, but I also never want to look the gift horse in the mouth and assume my team should always win or else...that.

Some great Buffalo references and on point. I did read some negative comments about them but I think that just comes from thin-skinned fans. Go bills!
I thought the comment by Sanchez about Josh getting an Oscar on the OB hit was unprofessional. Sorry, that's a foul every time, and he shouldn't be perpetuating crap.

Refs were inconsistent, but reasonably fair. The weekends real referee screw job happened to Washington.
John Hussey seems to be the most corrupt referee out there now.

McDermott is behind the times on strategy, and got blasted in the first Miami game for clock management issues.
So I think he drilled this particular strategic point into the heads of his players, and honestly, I'm not sure I want a jump ball between Hill/Waddle and this defensive backfield. But it's kind of like McDermott's "see, I know what I'm doing" trick.
But yes, taking a touchdown lead with ~ 0:30 to go would seem insurmountable. But then again, 2022 seems to be the Year Of The Bills Defensive Choke Job and finding new ways to screw up endgames.

I thought the officials were awful. I also do not believe that either team benefitted greatly.... both teams got screwed
Also: the throw by Allen was completely IG. No one was close. If Dawkins doesn't touch that ball no Bills player is within 15 yards.
Honestly, the rules are so perverted now from what we remember as kids that it's annoying af.
First off, an ineligible receiver being the first to touch a forward pass is a penalty. Plain and simple, the officials completely missed that, egregious and stupid.
There are so many passes now where the defender impacts the receiver before the ball arrives that get NO flags. Every team gets this benefit. But it ends up at a point where nobody knows what DPI really looks like, because it used to be if the defender arrived early, it was a flag.
This rugby b***s*** is annoying too. It used to be that helping a runner forward was a penalty. Someone is going to get hurt in one of these scrums, but hey, concussion protocol is enough to show they really care about the players' health.

I don’t like games decided by PI but to me that was text book yet you can always make arguments when you are biased. I did notice the bills got away with some stuff on hill but it’s also true there are dozens of I called penalties on both teams in every game. Anyway this is fun. These guys are in a full melt down.
The only squishy thing about that call was the flag appearing before the contact was even made. I assume the official was calling the hold by the defender guarding Davis, but then conveniently adjusted his call once it was clear that the defender boxed out McKenzie.

Belichick has always had a knack for turning QB’s into walking punch lines — Sanchez and butt fumble, Darnold and “seeing ghosts” come to mind readily.
His only problem is now he’s doing it to his own QB’s and not the other teams. 😂
At this point, we have to hand it to Brady. He must have developed himself. I'm pretty sure the spying helped win their first couple. But I also presume that, rather than passively using whatever information was afforded him, he actively chose to learn to read defenses, digest the schemes, and couple that with the physical characteristics needed to make every throw.
Kudos to Brady, clearly the Bucs Super Bowl win should have been his riding into the sunset, but he's still better than a lot of the current starters floating around (including DadBodMcCorkle).

We might have Terrell Davis right now, but he's stuck behind Model Citizen Who Runs Into The Back Of OL.

Instead of a new thread.
Let me say it again, this schedule is terrible. Weather related issues way too often and now look @ Miami forwarcast & Chicago next week.
My God, why can't they schedule home playoff games in September?

I have to admit back in the way back day, I defended Jerry as a voice crying out in the drought wilderness holding the Bills’ FO feet to the fire during their annual “heroic marches” to 7-9 records, and the bill of goods being sold to the fans along the way—he wasn’t wrong then, but now as an old dog he’s having trouble learning new tricks where the Bills actually have competent leadership and a franchise QB…he just can’t bear to throw out the script and start from scratch I guess. Now add in some cringe-inducing social commentary reminiscent of the know your role 50’s, and this is a craptastic way to cap off the week for him 🙈.
Closet Patriots fan if there ever was one.

We all want Josh to bring home the MVP and lead this team in spectacular fashion to a Super Bowl victory.
With that said, I have to wonder if the coaches viewed yesterday's matchup & conditions as a potential repeat of the road Jets loss. Bad weather, same dogged defense & coaching staff, & an O-line not at 100%. He slung the ball a bit more at NE, and I could imagine the coaches implored him to be less risky in his approach to throwing - avoid tight coverage or potential disguises that were effective at MetLife. It led to a rather pedestrian stat day, but it might be the type of performance against a b***h of a defense that won't cause him to devolve into another funk.In fact, I'd say the entire team seems to struggle in the rain. Recall the Indy nightmare at home last season. At least in this one they a) didn't give NYJ short fields on turnovers, and b) bottled up the run game quite effectively.
McKenzie must be replaced at WR3 soon. He can't be relied upon. Way too many games where possessions are squandered from his concrete hands. If you want him for trickery like gadget jet sweeps or pop passes, fine, but my confidence in him is basically zilch now.

Any comments about Dane?..
He seemed to pick it up late. I think he's a guy that doesn't have the tools, so in the end he gives up his share of completions but does a good job when he's able to attack a receiver in front of him in zone.

First a good win by Buffalo. So here are my observations:
3. Bills secondary was flying around tonight and just didn’t give the receivers much room work at all.
5. that personal foul at the end of the game seemed kind of silly to do. I know it’s football, but the game is over no need try lay the stick down on someone.
5. Both O lines looked bad and a TON of holding calls just ignored on both sides. God what a difference a mobile QB makes.
Good luck guys and please don’t lose the division to anyone else especially not the dang JETS!
3) So I've been down on Edmunds many times, but when he does his job vs. the run like last night, it frees up that whole backfield. White & Poyer are key. But frankly, it seems like NE abandoned the run which might have done in the Bills late in the game if they had stuck to their guns.
5a) When a receiver dives, it's really tough on defenders. The call made sense, the hit was just a typical bang-bang on a guy who's diving, judging those angles can be tricky.
5b) The sooner one realizes that the league tells officials when to find things to call, the sooner you understand that there's a reason they wanted to get those big sponsorship bucks from the gambling huts.

I think these are the types of rules that you hate when they take something from your team, and love when it benefits.
Unfortunately you have to come up with bland, blanket rules to cover these types of things. If he lands inbounds, the ball pops out, and a NE player grabs it, do you go berzerk because he didn't establish possession and instead of it being a 1st down for NE it's an incompletion?

No issue with the conversion try. Big issue with players like Gilliam who offer one real trick and then don't even pull that one off when needed.

If KC is the benchmark.. the team we need to get past.. It's all so gross to watch Mahomes have:
Kelce, MVS, Juju, Moore, Toney, Hardman and Watson
Josh has:
Diggs, Davis, Knox... and then, literally, two playable WR's left active in McKenzie and Shakir
For a Super Bowl contender, this is a five alarm fire and absolutely absurd to have only three reliable targets (and I use that term loosely outside Diggs)
So that's because they have an offensive-minded head coach. You were 13 seconds from taking them down last year, and could very well do the same this year - because they have a susceptible defense aside from a couple of marquee rushers.
We have the trappings of a solid offense, if some players get their heads out of their asses (looking at you Gabe & Lil' Dirty). And if/when Tre returns, I think their ability to thwart Mahomes will be even greater.

Allen took the smart plays, they scored on 7 straight possessions, maybe Allen was a little gunshy trying NOT to turn it over...he will likely find the happy medium...
Yeah wonder how much he had to fight the urge to back away from the Diggs TD. The way he blasted that pass, it seems like he's waiting for ghosts to pick off his deep over the middle throws.
-
The way he went to McDermott - and this is just me speculating - it looked like his body language was saying, "what did I tell you?" as much as anything. I'm guessing Allen & Diggs are getting sick of Ken Dorsey. He seems like the kind of guy who is arrogant & thinks every idea he comes up with ought to work (see the laptop suplex in Miami). My guess is he blames Allen, but it's highly likely his ability to draw up plays and understand offensive concepts is dwarfed by that of Daboll. Maybe that comes from the fact that Dorsey was a QB in college and the pros, and that in itself could breed ego.

Yeah, Baltimore should not be penalized for losing Lamar. LAR should not be penalized for losing Kupp and Stafford. Indy should not be penalized for the ongoing injury problems for Jonathan Taylor...do we need to continue to perpetuate this?
