  1. Wow airmail delivery
  2. I usually root for the underdog. GB doesn’t look much better than DET
  3. Sure, but at least the players decided those. No problem there...
  4. Geeez he was trying to intercept the ball. That is total BS One of the worst call I’ve ever seen and a likely game changer...
  5. What does the Lions db have to do. Lie down ? He went low as possible
  6. Absolute BS if this is a penalty on the DB. Clean play can’t just throw it ifthe WR is down
  7. Good point. Just who is deciding what’s on those airport TVs anyway. When was the last time you saw one on Fox News ?
  8. Nah, he’d be just a plain old veggie burger.
  9. If our defense is exactly as good as it is now, then I’d be inclined to agree on Mahomes. Not with Mayfield ;at least not yet.
  10. The same can be said about any team and that’s not what the thread is about. Every team needs to win their own games or they are entirely dependent upon what other teams do , so.....
  11. I doubt the Bills would be working on anything intrinsic to their game plan on during the media portion of practice.
  12. Yeah, I try to keep that filed away somewhere in the dark recesses....So bad.
  13. And a lazy response from Deion’s compadre.... “ Bills offense has long way to go.” If you looked into their stats and not just the point total you’d realize the offense is closer than you think.
  14. Week 7 Bills vs Dolphins would work for this...
  15. I don’t know about that. What if you’d take Deshaun Watson ? He’s incredible. Bad fan ?
  16. It’s also a good thing that defeating them isn’t required for the Bills to make the playoffs this year.
  17. True. I’d also rather be tasked with improving the Bills offensive scoring this season than with fixing the Chiefs defense. The Bills have moved the ball but snuffed out their own drives with turnovers and mistakes. Where do you start with that Chiefs D?
  18. It’s an interesting argument. The Chiefs look like they score a TD at any moment from anywhere on the field. Their D makes a two score lead late in the 4th seem dicey.
  19. Because only a limited number of things are challengeable under the rules. PI is really the first time they have allowed challenges to a “ judgment call” and then only reluctantly. Changing the calls could have huge effects on the game, because the rules aren’t enforced to the letter. Pandora’s box would be opened. Those other calls such as spots, catches are really not judgment calls, just video evidence is used because of the speed of the game. Using video evidence when things are seen but let go due to judgment is another story.
  20. Maybe, but again the game would be completely different ( and probably a lot less popular) if OPI were strictly enforced in every instance.
  21. Much of the modern passing game ( and a big reason for inflated stats) is about getting the ball out of the QBs hands quickly and into the hands of a speedy skill position player. The longer the QB holds the ball, the bigger the risk. It’s a good creative use of a play by Daboll, but it’s not new either. So far, I’m pretty happy with Dabolls ideas and calls this year.
  22. Not the first place, by a mile, but the geography is limiting. It has good food and a bar with a TV. Not exactly a fan hangout, but that area isn’t my favorite hang, either. Just a suggestion and yes it’s farther up Main.
  23. One would think King holds some sway, but in this case I think he’ll be ignored. He’s pointing out what seems obvious, but it’s actaully working the way the league wants it. That’s because they want it to be available, but rarely if ever used. They can’t really come out and say that, but the message being sent is clear. Coaches have been testing it, and the response has been universal : Don’t use this unless it’s the playoffs or similar and the game is literally on the line. It will turn the game into a joke if used even sporadically in just about every NFL contest. NFL rules like offensive holding or defensive PI are enforced intermittently and inconsistently just to keep teams “ honest”. The game would be unwatchable if they were always enforced to the letter. Although, with the preponderance of yellow flags in most games lately I have to wonder.
