  1. The issue with a dome is it wouldn't prevent cancellations or moving games, it would only be a comfort thing. The only thing that would prevent that is a dome over all of WNY. Good luck with that.
  2. Wondering if McD/Beane feel it would cause too much controversy and distractions for players ahead of the game....
  3. I don't care, I'm taking once right now if you offered it.
  4. He's used to watching Mahomes. Chiefs haven't done a QB sneak in years because he dislocated a knee cap once. Talk about a pansy.
  5. Same with a fumble, not sure what the issue with the rule is with so many
  6. "A transverse process fracture is typically the result of a high-impact collision, such as a contact sports injury or motor vehicle accident, but it can also be caused by trauma such as a gunshot wound or a fall from a high altitude. Often, individuals will anticipate the trauma (they see the head-on collision coming, know they are falling off a horse, etc.) and brace for impact. By doing so, they increase their chances of having a TPF, because the spine twists out of alignment just before the traumatic force occurs. Those muscles and ligaments attached to the processes may be constricted by the bracing and cause the bony end of the transverse process to snap off" Any chance they would right a wrong by giving Araiza his ticket back into the NFL?
  7. That's always been a rule and we have seen it many times over the years. I remember a Jet kickoff returner during the early drought years using that against us by stepping out of bounds and then laying down and touching the ball to make it a kickoff out of bounds. Nothing like the tuck rule...nobody knew that one...just about everybody knows this one. Really? Then by extension a receiver could catch a ball standing out of bounds but as long as the ball was in bounds it's a catch. Can't have it both ways...
  8. Yeah...well, when half the people are there because it's free air conditioning that they don't have and get to watch a game as a bonus, I can see why. Keeps them away from all them gators too. Louisiana has more of them than Florida.
  9. Now I see why he posted that idiotic thread about "fake sliding". To distract everyone from this and calling him out on having to pay up. Sorry, it was too nonsensical of a topic and take to get enough people to take your bait... This dude is the Nick Wright of posters.
  10. The window is as long as Allen is healthy and for as good as the Pats were they only went to half the Superbowls in Brady's time there
  11. Now he leaves himself an out with if they lose, well that's OK because they weren't that good and should have lost. He wants it every way, whatever way that benefits his narrativem
  12. Ravens and then everyone else, but Playoff Lamar is usually a far less good version of regular season Lamar. Do they? Brock Purdy is still the weak link
  13. He is in concussion protocol...gonna be hard for him to go thru all the steps needed and be back in 6 days...that's a killer with the move of the game...CP requires a step by step process that needs time to get thru before clearing
  14. Wow...best news we could have hoped for...how is Bernard day to day???
  15. He wasn't. He didn't start his tackle motion until after Allen slid.
  16. Probably the same type of fans that make the Air Canada Center in Toronto seem as quiet as a library for Maple Leaf games. Likely not the crowd we want there to provide a "home field advantage".
  17. Yup, it's smart because it allows you to see what they are trying to do and then adjust to it.
  18. Most of the Justin Fields clips I've seen AREN'T penalties because the defender is in the process of making a tackle BEFORE Fields slides. That's on him for not sliding earlier before he gets too close and the defender starts his tackle. That is an important distinction to make. If you slide after the defender starts his tackling motion, it's not a penalty. Allen slid first, then the defender started his tackling motion. That's 100/100 times a penalty
  19. No. You don't get it, just like so many others don't seem to get it. The rule is that if a defender is in the process of making a tackle and THEN the QB slides, it isn't a penalty, aka, a late slide. That is what happens the majority of the times when no flag is thrown. How can a defender be expected to stop mid tackle? He can't, which is why that's not a penalty. If you watch the replay, and I have many times, Allen slides, THEN the defender goes in to tackle him. That's a penalty 100/100 times. He didn't start his motion to tackle until Allen has already started sliding. It was a dumb play and one that's getting called almost every time. There was no reason to make that tackle attempt once Allen had started sliding.
  20. Man I get it...I remember when I was a kid we went to visit my Aunt for 3 weeks in Phoenix and it was freaking crazy hot there with temps in the 112-120 range the entire time. We were taking the train and at that time the closest one was in Flagstaff which is up in the mountains and has a climate almost exactly the same as Buffalo does despite its southern location, right down to average snowfall... It was warm, 88 there when we got there and I was freezing! Literally shivering and I kept asking why I was so cold...and they told me it would be like going from 80 to 40... So I definitely understand why you'd be freezing!
  21. Awesome! Bring your coats and hunter heat packs for your shoes/boots, it's gonna be cold! So far weather looks decent...20-25ish and partly cloudy with 20-15 mph winds. Still early but looks like all the bad weather is clearing out by Friday and the following week we are back into the low 40s for a while.
  22. Any team can...but a player who has disappeared repeatedly in the playoffs over the years has a higher probability to do it again and less his team to a loss than others.
  23. I mean why not make room at the facility if need be and bring in a bunch of beds? No time for slipping due to weather restrictions right now.
