Tre was not affected by that arm out. Not even really and arm bar. If Tre started tighter he might have gotten something, but there was already separation.

I'm honestly hoping the Jets score a TD here. 1) I want to see Josh run a game winning drive or 2) We get a better draft slot Not much to lose here really

No, Crossman did not kick the FG. That was done by the players. Crossman is responsible for teaching his players the rules, so as not to get ridiculous penalties, such as pre-kick alignment. Yes, that is on him. Either Poyer is dumber than a box of rocks who should never be on a field were he so dumb, or he's confused which is on the coach. Bowles, BOWLES was laughing after the penalty. Maybe he wasn't thinking "how do you have illegal formation on a kickoff?", but I really think he was.

Technically, he never got his hands on it. It bounced off his chest.

Our solution there was Bodine. Star was a bad signing, but it did not affect our center choices.

Yep. That's a position that I'd like us to consider in round 1. I'd love to trade down and look at stockpiling linemen

Don't love that ball landing within the sidelines. He is allowed to literally throw it into the stands once out of the pocket provided it goes beyond LOS, so stop allowing any risk

Dawkins has to get his arms extended much sooner on the sack play. Poor technique

...and as I hit send, he hits Foster on the sideline. There should be some more of that

As for football, I'd really like to see some timing routes for Josh to throw. I watched the video w/Dilfer saying Josh was accurate (I type that as he throws low to Ivory), so why do they not design 3 step drop, throw to spot plays?

As long as you recognize it's an opinion, not a fact. I'm too old for NFL now, so I do what I can to teach the new refs how to keep their heads from spinning.

... that said, should have been holding on Lawson. That was a pull, not a push. Thankfully we get the pick we were hoping for there.

You're all kidding yourself if you think the refs care about the Bills good, or bad. The Bills bring most of these things on themselves. There is NO WAY you watch other games and think, WOW these refs are wonderful and make every call right, but for some reason they are routinely awful against just the Bills. Every crew makes mistakes in EVERY game, not just the Bills games. Enough of the "they're out to get us" nonsense.

End of season, we're going no where, protect body for next season syndrome (EOSWGNWPBFNSS for short

Because I'm a Zebra, I'm going to defend that guy on screen at least. You DO see which way he's looking right? Someone away from the screen (LJ in particular) should have wide view to see that. Not sure where the ref is also, but he has the cross view, but he may be looking upfield also. Not excusing the crew, but a ref in the middle of the field with chaos coming at him is not to blame there.

Thankfully creating a TO one minute into the 2nd half cannot happen very often for your sake.

Did they fire Crossman at halftime?! Maybe that's why ST is already better.

I was going to say Happy Days post about the refs protecting their own was ignorant until I read this. No. Playing to injure is subhuman. If Hughes was right, there is no way the refs support that type of behavior. Dude sits because he deserves to and the others will support that.

Maybe Vernon Davis can come visit Crossman at halftime to show him how it's done.

In fairness, he still shows some nice moves, but he needs to have some space to work with. He's too often accosted in the backfield. I don't know what percentage of that is speed, or just poor line play

Really feels like they should have pulled the trigger at the deadline. I hope he's still providing the leadership they value and being a solid mentor.

I agree. I love his magic act. Penn's not so bad himself.

Because you just got beat at the LOS by a strong defense and the FG makes it a 1 possession game without the risk of swinging all of the momentum to Buffalo. Just sayin'

Any concern I have about Darnold are swept away when I remember that he's from USC and wearing a Jets jersey. No problems.

In that they're both poor? How else would they be related? No connection between the two otherwise.
