J/C... How many cops does it take in camo. ๐๐คฃ What a clustereff... Raise the traffic citations and speeding ticket quotas to pay for this.๐

He takes forever to get ball off his foot and is a step closer to line. Even Martin makes me cringe before the punt... It seems the rush is getting in there fast. No thanks... Wasn't there a blocked punt last year... AND boy, Jets almost got one on Monday Night! Interesting point. But that was a penalty. 15 yards this year. Puts them at 40 and having to make plays. Anything could have happened. My concern... Is blocks. He's a step closer than normal punters and Jets almost blocked one on Martin.

Diggs putting too much pressure on him. Diggs seeking to much attention after the January meltdown. Josh wants to please. -
Jets OT TD should have been called back...

We will never know what other weird twist this game could have taken if the refs just did their jobs! -
Jets OT TD should have been called back...
ExiledInIllinois replied to Reed83HOF's topic in The Stadium Wall
I mean... It did allow the Jets to win uncontested!!! Walk-off. If they call it it, it puts them at super long FG range and makes Jets offense have to make plays! What if Bills get a sack? Fumble, pick-6??? Pretty clear the whip AGAIN. This was changed this season to a 15 yard personal foul. Tripping is defined as "the use of the leg or foot to obstruct any opponent." Blocks beneath the waist are illegal, per Section 2, Article 4 of the NFL rulebook: Blocks below the waist are prohibited in the following situations: By players of either team after a change of possession; or By players of the kicking team after a Free Kick, Safety Kick, Fair-Catch Kick, Punt, Field-Goal Attempt, or Try Kick; or By players of the receiving team during a down in which there is a Free Kick, Safety Kick, Fair-Catch Kick, Punt, Field- Goal Attempt, or Try Kick. By players of either team during a scrimmage down prior to a change of possession unless the contact occurs in the Tight End Box. (Note: Players are prohibited from initiating contact below the waist of an opponent outside the Tight End Box, except against a runner or a player who is attempting to catch a forward or backward pass). 7/10 expert skiers lie down and die in the face of an avalanche with this mentality. When, almost all EXPERT skiers would be able to ski out. Just saying... Jets would have been near the 40 looking at a +55 yard kick. They would have had to make plays. A sack takes them firmly out of FG range. Sure if they were going to lose, lose quick... But that's a quitter mentality. -

This year they changed it to 15 yards, personal foul. That put Jets on 40 yard line looking at a 57 yard FG. They would have had to run plays AND anything could have happened. Oh well... I agree with this. Blown that cost them the game... But a waste if NFL admits it! The NFL rules guru that now works for ESPN is the one that noted this: John W. Parry (born May 4, 1965) is a former American football official who worked in the National Football League (NFL) from 2000 through the 2018 season. He wore uniform number 132 and was the referee for two Super Bowls." "...You can see the Jets defender LB Chazz Surratt trip Buffalo Bills TE Quintin Morris on his way to make the tackle. It was all the difference in the game as no call was made and the touchdown stood. Again, the team shouldn't be focused on one missed call as a reason why they lost the game, but it's a blatant no-call that turned the tides of the matchup. Even at this point if the NFL came out and said they indeed missed the call, it would all be to waste. Buffalo needs to be better, here's hoping that the referees can call a good game next time." -

Say they miss or fumble??? INT, etc... Block... Remember the Houston Oilers game back in day. At least call the game according to rules. -
Thank YOU. He still got them into position to tie at the fickle finger of the Football God's doing. They had other plans in OT. But... That was a trip! YET I would have rather lost on punt return than a kick! ๐ BUT... Always a chance something else happens if they call the penalty they should have! Just get us off that horrible field in New Jersey without any injury! The loss I can get over!

Thnx! Poor start no doubt... BUT NYJets are the only team in Division, even if you include Colts, who the Bills hold a winning record against! 68-57-0 https://www.pro-football-reference.com/boxscores/game_query.cgi?tm1=buf&tm2=nyj&yr=all

When I lived in Davenport in 1990... I had a lady call my phone and leave a message on my tape machine. Yes, answering machine had a tape cassette. Anyway the message went like this... Recollected from memory, I probably still have the cassette tape somewhere if it hasn't deteriorated: "Hello, this is Sharon Williams, I have 'co****s t-airin' thru my trash. I called the pole-ease and they gave me your number. They said that you'd trap and relocate them..." ๐๐คฃ๐ I wasn't amused with the pole-ese giving out my information, probably why I got an axe to grind with those low-information, over-officious jerks today...๐ The significant other, who is now the permanent significant other now, split her side laughing. That's all I know about raccoons, that I am supposedly a raccoon trapping and relocating legend of 1990 with the Davenport, Iowa Police Department. Oh... Also, we had a few at work that an animal-lover co-worker was feeding. One day he forgot their evening victuals, we had shop door open, one raccoon came in and took a huge steaming dump on the shop workbench... We gave them access to the dumpster and let the garbage truck driveway with some. That will fix their azz when they show up at the dump! How's that for a brilliant "trapping & relocation" story... I must have learned it in Iowa.๐ So, in conclusion, please don't hurt the poor little raccoons. AND don't piss the critters off by denying them vittles... They be cute! ๐
