What a Tuel

You act as if you are the only one who can see the big picture of "rex being a sub par coach" and those that disagree should just not read your posts. In fact we are currently the 6th seed in the playoffs. Way too early for that, but man losses crush people. I feel like after every loss people return to the same old bills mentality. It is pretty annoying when this team is something to be excited about for once.

I am curious if he was as vehemently defensive about Robert Woods when he was ejected for punching.

Did any of the bills players get fined for anything?

The worst was 2012. Rough stuff. 2012 @ New England Sunday -----> @ Miami Thursday

They make money hand over fist without doing this. 10% of all bets go to them. Think about that for a second. I don't necessarily think that the companies themselves are doing anything against the rules, the risk is to great for the racket they have going on. I wouldn't put it past employees acting on their own greed with the information and access they have though.

The problem isn't that there are rules, it is that the officials are calling them poorly and inconsistently. You may take "patting your teammate on the helmet and getting a personal foul" as "eh happens", I take it as inconsistent and ineffective officiating by part time officials irrespective of what team I root for.

The Bills secondary did their job Sunday. The NFL when publicly called out for missing stuff will start paying attention. Especially when the public starts paying attention too. While we can't be baited, those players should still be flagged. How come we have to be disciplined to not get flags, but they don't? I also don't necessarily think the punches were a strategic move by Beckham, he was annoyed and frustrated.

I seem to remember a certain Robert Woods being ejected for that kind of pushing and shoving at one point. But its always ok as long as everyone else does it....unless that someone is a Buffalo Bill.

I don't get this. They can get in a huddle and call intentional grounding, or pick up a pass interference flag because a ball was tipped, but they can't talk to each other and say...."well he batted the ball so throw a flag". I understand the can't throw a new flag when a play is being reviewed, but one official was talking like he saw it, and was going to throw the flag but thought it might not have been intentional. To me that warrants a discussion with the other officials. I had Calvin Johnson in my fantasy lineup and while no one cares about my fantasy team, it was a real eye opener how many catches were called back on ridiculous penalties.

The whole touchback rule should be changed either way. If a player fumbles a ball out of bounds, the ball is returned to the team that last had possession at the spot of the fumble. Why should it be different fumbling into the endzone? They really need to change that. Edited to add: why should the defense benefit when they did not or could not recover the ball?

I haven't seen a lot of talk about the picked up roughing the passer call. Not one but two Giants hit Taylor well after he threw the ball. They pick it up because our player "pushed" them into Taylor. I wish I could find a good GIF of that call. It was ridiculous.

These aren't excuses why we didn't win, they are excuses why we have other games to look forward to. We are undeniably better with Miller, Glenn, McCoy, and Watkins in the game. Therefore when they come back, we will be a better team.

I notice the Cowboys lost to the bad Saints yesterday. It seems to me with a certain couple players, they would have won.

The problem I have with it is that although Woods was still fighting for progress, they were holding him up while stripping the ball. Maybe he should have just fallen down on the ground but at a certain point I don't think he could have without losing the football so he just had to try to hold on. No whistle was coming though so inevitably he was stripped.

Average? After they opened it up through the air he was making very good passes. The first half was awful but that was a combination of play calling and missing 2 starting o lineman than Taylor

Personal fouls and unsportsmanlike penalties aside the refs were calling ticky tack calls on the bills even while the commentary was saying they were letting them play. I guess they meant just the giants. On top of that they pick up flags on the giants. Officiating is horrid.

Can you tell me which games we win and lose so I can prep myself from week to week? It should be pretty easy for you.

Haha, I was thinking the same thing. Or Calvin and AJ Green last year. Awful busts of WR's they needed to play for their teams last year! And one was injury prone with a toe injury, and the other with an ankle injury. I can't believe they retained them this year.

I see WGR is stirring things up as well now. Calling Watkins injury prone and that it is worrisome. I think people just see what they want to see, the guy isn't injury prone. and I think that term is overused for whenever a player you don't like is injured.

You forgot a stat. Spiller - 672 carries, 205 pass targets McCoy - 1,349 carries, 338 pass targets McCoy is clearly the better RB, but the picture you painted is incomplete, and seems manipulated to show comparable attempts/targets. An argument could be made that CJ didn't deserve more carries/attempts but it still should be disclosed. That said, what is with the told ya so? the guy just had knee surgery, just came back, and had 4 total carries, and 3 targets over 2 games. They are obviously bringing him back slow.

I was talking about this yesterday and came to the conclusion of a tie as well haha.

I didn't misconstrue that you were bashing Sammy. I was pointing out that last year with an inferior offense, and QB, he put up comparable numbers to the three elite WR's you listed's rookie years. Just like Mario Williams, fans have ungodly expectations for the players we pay a lot for. I agree though, nothing needs to be done, we need to be patient and wait for Tyrod to build a rapport with Sammy. He seems to have a special connection with Harvin, probably because he practiced with him all offseason while Sammy was recovering from hip surgery.

Didn't she call out the police at some point? I may be mistaken now that you guys referred to her calling out the NFL, but I thought she was getting mouthy with the whole anti police thing going on.

While Tyrod has been great so far, we don't quite have a Matt Ryan, Ben Roethlisberger or even Andy Dalton type QB to throw him the ball. Everyone will openly admit that (Plus our line) for his rookie year at least. Also stats from those 3 WR's in their first 2 years (3 for Antonio since he didn't play most of his first year) Julio Jones 13 games played 96 targets 54 rec 959 yards 8 tds 16 games played 129 targets 79 rec 1,198 yards 10 tds AJ Green 15 games played 116 targets 65 rec 1,057 yards 7 tds 16 games played 164 targets 97 rec 1,350 yards 11 tds Antonio Brown 9 games played 19 targets 16 rec 167 yards 0 tds 16 games played 123 targets 69 rec 1,108 yards 2 tds 13 games played 105 targets 66 rec 787 yards 5 tds Sammy Watkins 16 games played 128 targets 65 rec 982 yards 6 tds On par for 70 targets 37 rec 528 yards 5 tds Does anyone realistically believe that Sammy is a 528 yard receiver? Can we please acknowledge other factors beyond "Sammy just isn't good enough"? Geez for the love of god just look at the tape.

Seriously? Up 27 to 0 and you want Sammy to play banged up? Sammy isn't here to pad your fantasy stats guys. I realize he will never be "worth" it to some people, but it's time to let it go. The game tape proves what he is capable of.
