I mean if waddle managed to get two hands on the ball, Poyer literally had his entire arm in between Waddle's to break up the pass.

You're a joke buddy

Man, Dawkins really does such a nice job putting things into perspective. Seeing things from a players viewpoint is so refreshing

Gross. Anyone who thinks the Bills should do anything other than dominate the pats is a F***ng coward

I mean we could all look at the worst possible scenario and expect that it's going to happen, or do the same with the best case and go with that I'm so sick of anyone who expects the worst considering themselves to be fans. It's a joke at this point that the Bills are considered the class of the afc and Superbowl favorites, yet some of these so called fans are incessantly looking for reasons why the team sucks or are going to lose. If you aren't on these forums expecting a Bills Superbowl this year then GTFO. Damar Hamlin woke up and immediately asked if the Bills won. What does that say about the team and the accountability they hold for themselves? Do they think this is going to slow them down? I highly doubt it. They're going to add this fuel to the fire and with Hamlin's blessings show the league the Bills are not ones to be trifled with.

That 5-6 mil/yr is the sweet spot to resign him. Any more and you're better off spending that money elsewhere and any less you've got yourself a nice deal

I could be wrong, I haven't seen a replay. Watching it in real time I saw a screen since the RB was hanging out by the original LOS. Like you said though, it could've just been the line getting beat bad. Not every lineman goes out to block on a screen either. So it's likely on a screen that 2-3 OL stay home to block while the other guys head out to the screen area to block

It was a screen play and the RB (Cook, I believe) was no more than 5 yards away. It's the whole reason Josh had to dirt it, the Dolphins DL had him dead to rights bc the OL was looking to get behind them

Zack Moss and 5th!!

Mike white just gave his life to make that completion

So what happens if they win? Against a 7-1 team no less

What's the Vikings record again, you clowns!?

Honestly I'm pretty disappointed with him this year. He's had opportunities and just hasn't capitalized

Mines a moniker I've taken on online recently, after finally deciding to have an actual presence in forums and the like (I identify as a lurker..) It isn't much fun for a football message board but here goes. It's an homage to Hermes Trimegistus. A figure who, to me, represents the transformation of oneself into the greatest version of oneself. By way of self reflection and discovery, simple spiritual practice, and attunement with the natural laws. Thanks to @Coldfronts for the inspiration to post mine. I was contented to enjoy everyone else's until I saw what you had posted.

Exactly. It's a problem that should have a fairly easy solution,yet it seems like every year it gets worse and worse

It stems from a frustration at the officiating league-wide. There have been countless plays this year where I watch the Bills (specifically) and think to myself how lucky they got on a call or non-call. It's not just the Bills, it's the NFL as a whole. How many times do you see the media darlings getting timely penalties to keep them in the game? I'm sure you could do a deep dive and look to see if the better teams truly do get more calls for or against them but that would just turn out to be an exercise in futility. C'est la vie

Man, how can you not love these players and this team

Talk about cathartic! I'm so happy the Bills pulled out the W! Regardless of any other factors. Beating KC at Arrowhead is huge for team morale/confidence and seeding purposes. Hahah right!? It's like 'oh, this play could potentially end the game, better scrutinize it ad nauseam. Don't worry about the calls earlier in the game. Those don't really matter (unless it affects the spread)'

I think that's the worst part. It's not just on a run of the mill 2nd down, it's when the cards are on the table the refs control the flop. I mean, the big play doesn't reach home.. just look for the flag. Marquee team/players generally get the calls to keep the game alive. It would be nice to just watch the players play and not have to worry about a great defensive stop or offensive gain negated by a redundant penalty.

Seriously. How much do the Bills win by without numerous (2-3) drives extended by penalties for 1st downs, or non calls that would've obviously changed the outcome of a play. It's not just this game and not just against the the Bills. The Refs clearly show bias and it's getting more and more obvious to even the common fan. The Bills have been fortunate in this regard since Allen but the overall officiating is horrendous. There have been a handful of times where the bills should've gotten penalties or non calls against them and it worked in our favor. IMO the Bills have been on the "right side" of these calls this season but it still points to the inability of the NFL to have capable Refs. How ridiculous is it that a multi-billion organization can't at least be impartial when it comes to the rules that govern the game!? I don't care if the Bills get more calls against the weaker teams in the league, so long as the overall game is called consistently and fairly for every team. How many times have you seen a flag and then the network doesn't show a replay or there's a convoluted explanation why the call was right.. TL:DR, Refs suck, Bills didn't benefit tonight, but overall they have.

Exactly, The Bills might actually have to punt in this one

You haven't heard.. it's gonna be in Lancaster (or Batavia). There's been plenty of high-level business meetings about it!

Exactly. Its why Beane said how many times it's to give Matt space to work things out. I wouldn't rule out the Bills bringing him back after the dust settles if he's cleared of any wrongdoing.

Why?

The Bills had no choice to drop him regardless. Even if they knew with 100% certainty thay he was innocent. The media circus that would plague the team would be an absolute nightmare. Worst case scenario is that they keep him on and then he does get charged and arrested. How much does that derail the season, and what does that do to the reputation you've built?
