  1. I thought that too. Could be what will make Daboll finally call more running plays, but still can never tell with Daboll. Either way I'm highly confident we will continue to see those "WTF" type play calls that takes momentum away from the offense.
  2. You know what they'd do.
  3. I don't see many Bucs games but I'm curious how often they are allowed to get away with that much holding. They got away with it a lot in the Super Bowl but KC got away with it against Bills in AFCCG. Anyway it's beyond frustrating..
  4. I know many say Bills can't run the ball, they had a few decent runs yesterday from the RB and also a couple other games they had some good runs. Sometimes I think Bills can have a solid or better running game if given more chances. I mean a running play is very rarely called for the RBs. So I just wonder if they had more than 5 or so chances a game could make a difference because once in a while the RB has a decent run out of the very few opportunities they get. So I guess I kinda wonder how much lack of opportunities may play a role in the "Bills can't run the ball" talk. I'm not saying they haven't struggled, I'm just saying it may not be as bad as it seems. A RB that gets less than 10 carries a game usually doesn't get many yards.
  5. Yeah many to blame for sure, but as for yesterday with some of those opportunities to score after getting down the field then all of sudden plays are called that makes you say.."why the ***** was that play called".... That among other things just makes Daboll's decisions come into question.
  6. Think it was one of those good ol fashioned pick plays like Pats did a lot when Brady was there. Dane may have gotten hit with it. Many of those could be called for OPI that they get away with. Not sure if Dane is fast enough or not, but those picks will take away even the fastest CB's As for the safety I don't know, could be they had their attention on Evans or Gronk.
  7. I get it and each situation obviously is different, but imo it was the right call in Tenn. Believe Bills were inside the 5 or close to it if I'm not mistaken. The way they were moving the ball I had no problem with the call to try and get out of Tenn with a W. I wouldn't have kicked the FG for OT due to the way Tenn and Henry were having their way with Bills D and wouldn't want to take the chance on them getting ball to start OT because chances are they march right down the field easily same way they did all game. Either way I see the reasons for both going for win and going to OT, but I thought it was the correct call and had no issue with it
  8. I'm not or ever have been a "moral victory" guy and when I say this I most certainly don't take it or imply it as such, but even with the ***** officiating (which most times is very difficult to overcome in itself), Bills had 2 chances to win the game and were the best chances you could ask for with one inside the redzone. I blame a large majority on Daboll for offense failing to take advantage of it,
  9. Agree, it's the best chance to convert that way Daboll can screw it all up. Lol maybe that's part of reason why the fake was called... Anyway agree
  10. He has improved some this season, but still has not lived up to a top 10 pick...although he is only one man and the Dline in general isn't good so that is a factor also. In any case he hasn't shown enough by any means yet
  11. Yeah year after year it just doesn't seem to be not even the slightest tiny bit of improvement and that's for pretty much every team except for a couple that always seem to have it no where near as bad... With that said, much of the struggling falls on Daboll imo.
  12. Lol, wondering how similar both of our responses were?? I responded...."Same reason it always was for basically 2 decades when playing against Brady and Pats, so it's same circus but different clowns" lol, How different was your response???lol
  13. My wife who doesn't watch or care about sports and only on occasion will look up from her book when I'm watching, she looked up in OT and it was Bucs possession when the PI was called on Bills.....Then she said (and I quote word for word), "Why would they call that a PI on Bills when they didn't for Diggs that looked a lot worse"?
  14. If it is then I certainly hope it won't be another bad weather/wind day because knowing how the offense struggles in it with Allen, I would imagine it may be even worse for Mitch. Also in the event MT does have to start one would think we will for sure see more running plays.......... Either way I don't have much confidence in Daboll and I'm still frustrated with yesterday. Our franchise star QB was limping in pain and so for some reason he thinks it's a great idea to continue to call multiple designed running plays for him. I for one am honestly pretty much fed up with Daboll myself
  15. yeah 380 is pretty big. Our own rookie Brown is same height, but not that heavy. At 380 one would think he'd be a little slow...
  16. Regarding the bold...the "RBs not important as used to be" thing imo depends on how a teams roster is built, especially at QB. I think a team with an average or game manager type QB situation, a RB is very important as it used to be. (ex. Tanny in Tenn). Teams with a good or elite QB may not see RB's as important. Just my 2 cent.. Also to add, that "RB are dime a dozen", well that also depends. I'd say maybe a lot of them are, but RB's like Henry, Taylor certainly are not a dime a dozen lol. Anyway I think RBs are important either way no matter how great or bad a QB is because a solid, decent RB helps the QB anyway.
  17. Biting knee caps Maybe see a few more blitzes than normal this game.
  18. Well I'm sure this is something every team does at this point when playing Bills. They know Josh has that issue.
  19. Right, don't blame them a bit. There has been no respect for our rushing game basically at all. But recently Breida/Devin has improved it some. Not by very much, but enough to stick with those 2 for a while imo, but not sure if enough to make defenses change up all that much, yet anyways. Hopefully at least acknowledge it a little more maybe lol. I am interested to see how it is with the OL back though.
  20. You're not alone. Many women agree, a lot say Allen is in the mix too lol
  21. Well yeah obviously he usually is. Just saying as far as comparing the RBs only of both teams in rushing NE may be better.
  22. When including Josh ( I assume you both are) in running game I agree Bills are a little better than NE. As for not including Josh and talking RB's only I would guess it may be neck n neck or maybe even NE could be a little better.
  23. Congrats to you! I have been meaning to stop smoking myself. Very hard habit to break. A few years back I did quit for 9 months and was doing well, wife was proud, happy. Then a situation popped up that was hard to deal with and started right back. And still smoking to this day and talking about quitting, but so far that's what it's been, all talk no action. I think it may be just as hard to quit smoking as someone trying to quit heroin. Anyway, keep up the good work and I hope to join you sooner than later
