I think I'm one of the few people who hate the dolphins worse than the Pats.
I still despise the Pats and they are my 2nd most hated team, but just something about the dolphins and the history with Marino makes me hate them the most

He's awful. The only one I think who's worse than him is hochuli

Agreed. And honestly the Bills could finish 10-6 and still lose out on tie breakers. 9-7 just won’t do it at all.
That would be the luck of the bills eh. Finish 10 and 6, win at new england and still miss the playoffs lol

The Ravens are light years ahead of the Bills. They won’t choke these last three games. They have one wild card for sure.
And Tennessee probably has the other. Bills will have to win out, which means winning at New England

This game is a joke this is why I stopped watching non bills games
refs are manipulating the game to much
Its true. Half the calls in this game shouldn't have been made. It just ruins the game

This is why I enjoyed the snow game today. Minimal flags. Officials let them play. This game now is just awful

Its so obvious collingsworth is going for the Steelers

How was that interference?
Shouldn't have been. Was a bad call like usual

Seems like the AFC is getting stronger and stronger.
Pats, Steelers are the obvious favourites. (More so the Pats)
But now the chargers, Jaguars and ravens are playing lights out

wow
I honestly give up trying to convince people. Some people have it drilled in their mind that McD is a god and that it was a great decision to punt because they "won the game".

Okay. Put it this way. Why would you let everything ride on one play?
Because you are in control of that play?
Why not give yourself more plays to control your destiny? Even if that means being on D.
That is what a snow game brings to the table more often.
He let go. It was gutsy but he did it!
Man everything wasn't riding on that one play lol. You are making it sound like it was 4th and 10 from their own 20.
It was 4th and 1 from the Colts 40. If they don't get it, stop the colts and you still get the ball back at the 20 yard line with plenty of time... It really wasn't that big of a risk to go for it

75% in conditions like this?
I put it at winning 75% in these conditions.
Can't worry about the tie. So be that.
What do you mean don;t worry about the tie?
You understand that if they tied, they would basically be eliminated. Right? That's the main thing I think you are missing here. If the tie helps them then yes punting is smart. But the tie is virtually the same as a loss

And this decision today was brilliant. It won the game.
Lol We'll agree to disagree. I think the bills lose or tie that game 75 percent of the time if he punts. Today, the 25 percent went their way. Doesn't mean it's the right decision to me.
But like I said, we'll agree to disagree

And he was unlucky with starting Peterman against the Chargers.
Can we call it a wash?
No. That was just an awful decision to start him against the chargers lol

No. But McD knew the QB was Brisset. You think he would have punted if it was Tom Brady? In fact it was Hilton that made the play or it was pick 6 for White.
Possibly. He's a very conservative coach.
And even if it is Brissett. That was the easiest pitch and catch ever. McD got very lucky today

No...I agree if the Bills get in field goal range, I would venture to say the 20 and they make it, the colts don't score. But I think the he thought with the weather and the situation called for a punt and defense. With the way the game played out he in turn made the correct decision.
If Brissett hits a wide open Ty Hilton on 2nd and 10 would you be saying the same thing?
-

Because if you make the same decision 10 times it's wrong 7-8 of them. If you hit on 18 and win it was a bad decision even though you won that hand.
Some people just can't understand that

They had to score a touchdown dude. Do you not know the rules?
I'm well aware of the rules bud. You were so confident the defence was going to stop them after the punt, so if the bills got a field goal in that situation, I'm sure you would agree it would be almost impossible for the Colts to get 3 points back... Right?

Harder to say it was an incorrect decision when they win the game. I wanted them to punt too but would not advocate that hard for it after a win. Yes I think the outcome should factor in on the judgement of calls a coach makes.
I don't. I think they got very very lucky on multiple plays.
Getting one yard on 4th and 1 and then picking up another first down to set yourself up in field goal range seems a lot more realistic with less factors involved to win. Opposed to you know,.. stopping the other team and then completing a hail Mary with your 3rd string quarterback to 4th receiver in a massive Snow storm...

Well, it’s certainly more important of a factor than highly questionable projections or gut feelings or what Mike Schoop and the Browns would do.
Put it this way. I strongly disagree with the decision to punt. And that has nothing to do with the odds ESPN had or whatever.
If you agree with it then that's your opinion and fair enough.
But don't say it was the correct decision just because they won the game..

Poker hands can project odds because of the limited number of cards. This situation was unlike anything so I’m not sure your metaphor is really applicable.
You're missing the point bud. I'm saying just because they won the game, doesn't mean it was the correct decision

You have no idea what you’re talking about. You’re assuming things with no facts to back it up.
But since you said it I will ask. What were the odds for each decision at that moment, in those conditions, with those players, at that point in OT?
McD made a call and it worked, that’s all that matters and all he should be judged on. The rest is total conjecture based on assumptions that have no basis in fact and certainly not facts for the exact situation.
I went all in with pocket 2's in poker and the guy had pocket aces. I won even though the odds weren't on my side. Does that make my decision correct?

Simple, they go for it. Odds are bad they ppound it through. Better odds punting deep. Worrying about tie, not an issue. You worry about game being played first.
Because they would have to have had a TD... And that was 1/2 a snow covered field away.
No they would have most likely only needed another 20 yards and a field goal pretty much would have won the game.
That to me has a 10 times better chance to Win opposing to stopping the Colts and going roughly 50 yards with a 3rd string QB... I really don't get how people disagree with that.

14 points were scored the whole game.
People's risk assessment is really screwed. No way they are going 90 yards. A kick then wins it for BFLo. Sure, a kick wins it for Indy. But, no way they even go 70 yards in that quagmire.
They didn't need to go 90 yards. They needed 2 first downs and the Bills season would have been over.
If Brissett hits Hilton who is wide open, the Bills would have all been eliminated from the playoffs today.
That's literally how close they were from being eliminated
Hate ever rooting for the Pats but...

I agree, it would be better for the Pats to win. The winner of the Pats Steelers game next week is going to get home field throughout the playoffs, so even if NE loses tonight it really won't mean that much. Just makes more sense for the dolphins to lose
