Billl

He’s already shown that he’s far better than Levis, and he’s 3 and a half years younger. His absolute floor is Daniel Jones.

I judge young QBs by what they do well as opposed to the mistakes they make. Maye does some things you can’t teach. It’s up to the coaching staff to teach them how to make the right decisions. Maye made a ton of mistakes today, but he was a rookie playing in an extremely difficult environment against an elite team. He’s got subpar talent at basically every single offensive position, and his coach is clearly developmentally disabled. I was impressed with him.

Elam’s the better of the two at this point. Douglas can’t commit PI because he isn’t within arm’s length of the receiver. If Kaiir can just dial the grabbing back a quarter turn, he might get away with some of it in the playoffs where they tend to let you play a little more. Rasul was worn down by the end of last year, and he’s worn down this year.

The Bills played a terrible game against a terrible team. They tend to do that once a year. The difference is that they usually lose this game. All that matters is the result. I promise the Eagles and Cardinals would preferred an ugly win today. An ugly win probably sounds pretty good to the Buccaneers right about now.

Wouldn’t Purdy being sensible mean he demand nearly every dollar he can get? He turns 25 in a week, and he’ll have less than $3,000,000 in career earnings. We just watched Tank Dell’s knee burst into flames on the field. Go get your generational wealth while you can. Those opportunities don’t come along every day.

He’s clearly tanking.

For anyone who complains about McDermott, take a good look at what a legitimately poorly coached team looks like. Mayo is clueless. His players are complete idiots. There couldn’t be a bigger difference between the teams in that regard.

Dude’s playing field position when he’s 3-11 and 15 point underdogs. He deserves to get fired.

The teams look like they swapped uniforms.

It was a joke. Buffalo has several slot receivers who are clearly better than Dotson. That guy’s a bum.

Chicago is about as good of a situation as a first time HC could walk into. They’ve got a pretty good roster and a raw QB who is already putting up historically good rookie numbers. He’s been overshadowed by some others, but he’s on pace for 3,600 yards, 21 TDs, and only 7 INTs plus over 500 yards rushing. He would be out of his mind if he were to take a job in Jacksonville or, even worse, stay in Detroit as the OC.

Chicago is going to go all in for Ben Johnson. They’re going to have plenty of competition, though. He’s going to have his pick of any job available (and maybe even a few that aren’t).

He (Jawaan Taylor) absolutely does it as well. For some reason, the league treats it like delay of game in that they give the Tackles a split second of leeway. It doesn’t make sense to me, but you can’t ask the refs to only enforce it on one team but not the other.

How many times was Dawkins called for doing that?

The clock was stopped before the play due to the penalty. You can’t spike the ball when the clock was stopped prior to the snap.

If he’d spiked it, it would have been a 10 yard penalty.

How do you figure? Buffalo called a timeout. That saved them about 12 seconds. The Rams got the ball with 59 seconds on the clock. If the Bills hadn’t called timeout, that would have been about 47 seconds. They ran 3 plays and used 12 seconds. You’re down to 35. Then they punted which burned the final 6 seconds and would have taken a few more. So that’s about 27 seconds with no timeouts.

The Bills’ win probability went from 9.5% to 8% after that play. The timeout barely impacted the game at all. Even if they’d run up to the line and spiked the ball or snuck it in rather than calling a timeout, they were still going to need either an onside kick or a defensive stop followed by a 40+ yard drive and a made FG with about 25 seconds on the clock and no timeouts.

Josh is going to win, there’s no real doubt at this point. He obviously deserves it, but it’s also pretty clear that the organization has made it a priority to ensure that he brings it home. It’s free money at this point.

Why are Bills fans talking about the Chiefs on a Bills forum?

There is no whistle blown until after the play is over.

Cool, so if he had blown the whistle the rule is that the play stands provided that there is a clear and immediate recovery which there obviously was. So even in the scenario you imagined involving the blowing of some sort of whistle that nobody heard, nothing changes. It’s still a fumble recovery by the Chiefs. But let’s say that they somehow decided that the recovery wasn’t immediate/clear enough. There would be a ten second runoff. The Chiefs still win. Maybe it’s best to just acknowledge that the Raiders fumbled the ball and that the refs didn’t impact the outcome. Or don’t.

LOL, cut video with the sound removed. I guess that’s better than the full video with sound.

You don’t know the rules. More importantly, you don’t care to know them. For those who do care, I’ll explain them. An illegal shift occurs when multiple offensive players are in motion at the same time and all 11 players don’t reset simultaneously for at least one second prior to the snap. That happened. An illegal formation occurs when there aren’t 7 players on the LOS, and/or there aren’t eligible receivers on both sides of the LOS. Also, the eligible receivers who aren’t on the end of the line can’t be on the LOS. That also happened. HOWEVER, the illegal shift happened prior to the illegal formation, so it was called instead (even though both fouls occurred). In either situation, the play continues and the defense has the option of accepting a 5 yard penalty or declining it and accepting the result of the play. Show me where a false start was called. Share the audio of the play being blown dead. Neither happened. That’s why I keep posting the video with audio and everyone arguing with me keeps pointing to a still shot taken 3 seconds after the play ended.

Immediately after what? Immediately after the ball was snapped…because illegal formations don’t occur until immediately after the ball is snapped. If it had been a false start, the flag would have been thrown before the ball was snapped and a whistle would have been blown. There was no false start. Nobody is even claiming that anyone committed a false start. You’re literally complaining that the officials should have got the call wrong thus rewarding the Raiders for committing penalties, snapping the ball when the QB wasn’t ready, and losing a fumble. Not only that, but you’re saying they should have retro-actively declared the play had been blown dead even though no whistle was blown.
