[Calling all RB and OL Gurus, Your Input Please]

A couple of us were having an argument in the Shoutbox about this play.  One person who shall remain nameless contends that Singletary had a hole to cut into, seen at 4s just after handoff, and that Singletary sucks because he doesn't make a nice cut as the Colts RB does, into said hole.

 

 

I contend that what they see as a hole is because Dawkins defender is already in the backfield charging towards Singletary, and all that trying to cut into that open space would accomplish is let that cat get his mitts on him faster.

 

In contrast, the Colts back has a hole the size of the State of Indiana to cut into.

 

Also I agree with this:

 

Your input please

 

@Buffalo716, anyone else?

I agree with you.

He said he didn't have good footing.  But any hole he should have driven into wasn't there.

 

I agree with you.

[Snap Counts for the Titans game]

Defense:

 

Wow, Klein only 6%, Taron Johnson 94% - I would have thought they would try base D a bit more against Henry.

Milano 100%, again, would have thought they'd give him breathers with the hammy

 

Phillips and Lotulelei looks like platooning, i wonder if they got what they wanted from Phillips?

Looks like Ditto for Zimmer and Oliver with probably a sprinkle of Obada. 

 

Can't tell from the snaps what they did at end, but it almost looks like Addison-Rousseau and Hughes-Obada

If so, I kind of feel like they outsmarted themselves vs. the "good thing" they had going on last week.

 

Offense

 

Gonna guess the predominant set here was (1,1)

 

What are snap counts? I was just wondering.

I sat through the forward lateral in a Skybox in BNA.  Bills D played lights out. With Flutie, game would not have been close enough for it to matter.  To think that Titans team was 2 feet from winning the Lombardi trophy.  NFL really needs to have an rfid chip in every ball, and a grid built into the field for plays like this. Also Bills took 10 penalties in that game to 2 for the Titans, please don't tell me the fix wasn't in.

That 1999 Titans team was actually two feet from tying the Super Bowl against the Rams and going to overtime but not winning the Super Bowl.

I don't disagree too much with your list, but I'd put Flutie above Bledsoe and Losman above Manuel.

 

Flutie got us to the playoffs a couple of times and if he'd played in the music city miracle game I think we would have won.

 

Losman gets a lot of abuse, and most of it is warranted, but I've always had a soft spot for him. His deep passes were something else, just the rest of his game that sucked. EJ on the other hand was just a nothing QB to me. Never did anything exciting and never did anything particularly well, at least from my memory.

 

Tyrod probably deserves to be higher simply because he helped end the drought, which I'll always be grateful for.

The Bills lost that wildcard playoff game to the Titans after the 1999 season on the Music City Miracle because the Bills didn’t cover the kick. Steve Christie sent a midrange kick instead of kicking the ball deep. Lorenzo Neal fielded the kick and handed the ball to Frank Wycheck who took ten Bills with him. That caused the Bills kickoff coverage to break down. Frank Wycheck then lateraled to Kevin Dyson who scored the game winning touchdown on a play known as Home Run Throwback. The call was upheld after review and the Titans won 22-16.

I’d venture to say we have more people visiting here than at any time previously. The entire football world is interested in this game, featuring 2 of the finest organizations and great young QBs currently playing -and we’re offering up this smorgasbord of childish lunacy. WhereTF is OUR A-Game? Have we been overrun by the cretins who call into WGR after the games? Hell, I’d rather read a rabble-rousing @Gugny trip-thread than this rubbish.

So disappointing.

 

Come on, folks! Step up our Game! This isn’t the kiddie table!🤬

 

I agree with you.

Not the worse play necessarily, but the moment where Bruce Smith almost had Hostetler near the end zone in the 1st SB!

He did have him as Smith tackled Hostetler in the end zone for a safety but Hostetler was able to hold onto the ball to prevent what may have been a touchdown for the Bills.

In SB XXVII against the Redsk....er....WTF's.  The DB's kept cheap-shotting him all game, and he lost it.  We had to settle for a FG.

 

*****in' A, Bubba!

That was in Super Bowl XXVI and not Super Bowl XXVII.

[What is the worst play in Bills history?]

I’d say either Wide Right or the Music City Miracle.
