  1. Don't watch the hit, just watch his feet. He's not taking a normal step, both of his feet leave the ground together, Landry is literally launching at William's neck. I'll be disappointed if there isn't a suspension.

    I will be disappointed if Landry leaves New Era under his own power in December. That was a blatant intent to injure and probably ended the career of another player. The league will do nothing, so it's up to AW's teammates.

  2. I was hoping for payback, especially when Landry caught the onsides kick. Pile on and pummel him!!! (But that's the angry fan in me).

    We play this team again. I would have no problem if Landry were carted off in a stretcher in that game. In fact, I would have no problem signing a player off the street to bring that about, although I would hope one of AW's teammates would take it upon himself.
  3.  

    RBs don't move lines, especially not through a key number. Maybe Adrian Peterson in his prime would move a half point on a non-key number.

    Yep. I almost think Woods would be a bigger loss, not because he's a better player but because there is nothing behind him. Williams, Gillislee and Bush will be more than adequate for one game.
  4. Poppy rooster! The worst no call heard round the world was on this play:

     

    Dennis Erickson lost his HCing job as a result of this travesty at the hands of the Tuna and the Refs. :angry:

    I don't know what the big deal is. The football on Testaverde's helmet clearly crossed the goal-line before his knee was down.

     

    As I recall, the Bills also got screwed by this call--I think they would have won the division instead of qualifying as a wildcard that year.

  5. The teams the Bills have beaten are not really bad teams, like you might find in CFB. All are dangerous and all can beat you on any given day. Simply drilling the lower tier teams on your schedule gets you 7-8 wins, which puts you on the cusp of the playoffs. And if I'm not mistaken, the Bills were underdogs in three of those games (I know the Rams line moved, but the Rams were initially favored.)

  6. If they wanted to challenge all penalties, games would be six hours long. You could call holding on practically every play at the line. If they wanted to limit it to facemask, horsecollars, targeting and PI that might work.

    Utter nonsense. Replays of PI could simply be made one of the categories of calls subject to coaches' challenge under the current system. And I believe it should be extended to roughing the passer and unnecessary roughness calls, as well.

  7. That play looked clean during regular game action, but was clear PI on the replay.

    I agree. I watched it real time it just looked like two guys fighting for the ball, but Sherman clearly grabbed JJ's arm. I have been saying for a long time that PI calls (and probably non-calls) should be subject to review. They have a huge impact on the game and are called incorrectly more often than not.
