  1. Guys on the other side make great plays too. The coverage was great.
  2. Knox did NOT drop that pass. It was perfectly defended by Phillips to the point where it was basically uncatchable.
  3. I don’t understand, actually. I don’t know if he got the first or not - it was close - but after the penalty got called I stopped caring.
  4. The pitt game didn’t come down to the end. They scored in garbage time to make it a one-score game, but the game was effectively over.
  5. He wasn’t out of bounds. Wasn’t that obvious?
  6. He quite literally wasn’t. The hit occurred before any part of his body touched the ground. It was blindingly obvious.
  7. The officiating actually favored the Bills. NE was called for twice as many penalties and one was ridiculous — the PF on the allen tackle.
  8. Not to defend knox, but that play in the EZ was WELL defended. That really wasn’t catchable. The diggs pass was moving like a spinning top.
  9. 8 points. Never assume the td, and tonight do not even assume the fg. The bills hadn’t even crossed the 30 yet.
  10. The Bills held too on the o-line. I thought the play by phillips on knox was a phenomenal play by the defender. Whining about refs is so tired. The bills had 3 penalties for 20 yards and the pats had 6 for 47.
  11. The turnovers equaled out. The difference was the 2 pt conversion and the fact that bass went 1-2 and folk 2-2.
  12. Yeah, the coaching difference was pretty remarkable in this game.
  13. Don't think he crossed, honestly.
  14. I honestly didn’t see anyone offside.
  15. Moss had a real gain and quite possibly a td if he cuts to his right. He didn’t. He has real vision issues.
  16. The Bills' stadium is literally the windiest stadium in the league, and it isn't that close. https://247sports.com/nfl/cincinnati-bengals/Article/Kickers-Nightmare-The-Windiest-NFL-Stadiums-105213973/ NFL TEAMS WITH OPEN-AIR STADIUMS RANKED BY AVERAGE WIND SPEEDS (windiest to least windy) Buffalo/Orchard Park, New York 16.1 New England/Foxborough, Massachusetts 14.5 New York Giants/East Rutherford, New Jersey 10.1 New York Jets/East Rutherford, New Jersey 10.1 Kansas City, Missouri 10.6 San Francisco/Santa Clara, California 10.6 Cleveland, Ohio 10.5 Minneapolis, Minnesota 10.5 Chicago, Illinois 10.3 Green Bay, Wisconsin 10.0 Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 9.5 Washington/Landover, Maryland 9.4 Miami Gardens, Florida 9.2 Cincinnati, Ohio 9.0 Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania 9.0 Oakland, California 8.8 Seattle, Washington 8.8 Baltimore, Maryland 8.7 Denver, Colorado 8.7 Tampa, Florida 8.3 Nashville, Tennessee 8.0 Jacksonville, Florida 7.8 Charlotte, North Carolina 7.4 San Diego, California 7.0 https://weather.com/news/news/2019-09-12-nfl-worst-weather-cities "Buffalo is also by far the windiest NFL city. Buffalo's gales either associated with a November Great Lakes storm, a December/early January nor'easter or a cold front can be disruptive. In December 2008, the New England Patriots and Buffalo Bills played through a game in which the winds were so strong the goalposts had to be straightened four times. Gusts to 75 mph damaged the Bills' practice fieldhouse prior to kickoff."
  17. I hope so too, but the other stat is that BB is 0-0 in similar situations with Jones and McDermott is 0-0 against Jones. In other words, who knows?
  18. Any prediction of the league trying to maximize viewership of the SB (and the associated revenue that comes with that) by favoring certain teams and which doesn't include the Dallas Cowboys is doing it wrong.
  19. The actual question was "Who is the last impact player Bill has drafted? Gronk?" That's what I was answering.
  20. There are a bunch. Dont'a Hightower, Shaq Mason (a terrific guard), Joe Thuney, and Chandler Jones are all impact players.
  21. Buffalo actually ran it until they had to pass it. Once they went down by 2 scores, they threw it on 24 of their last 30 plays.
  22. The other thing that doesn't get factored in is -75 yards on the INT for Denver and +75 for KC. I know it doesn't go in the offensive stats, but the yardage (positive and negative) is real. It literally flips the script from 356 Denver/275 KC to 281 Denver/350 KC.
  23. It was the opposite -- Cassel only threw it 8 times (9 including the sack). They ran it 47 times. The Bills threw it 25 times (27 including the two sacks) and ran it 35 times. https://www.pro-football-reference.com/boxscores/200812280buf.htm
