Ed_Formerly_of_Roch Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 In case anyone was wondering why the Bill's ran the QB sneak on 1st down, I'm sure CG will tell us it was Fitz's turn! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

K-9 Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 That was phucked up. Simply unforgivable that a HC and/or QB doesn't know the down/distance situation in the game. Gailey has lost whatever he didn't have much of in the first place. GO BILLS!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fridge Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 I've never seen that at the professional level. I truly dropped my jaw, and will believe no excuse that they give. That was a play that should be all over sports center and a strong candidate for a blooper reel/worst play call of the year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

K-9 Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 picked up three spiller got the first down next play......move on Well that's all well and good and all but it sure looks like our HC didn't know what down it was and ended up wasting a play as a result. But you're right, we ended up moving the chains and that's ultimately what matters. It's just worrisome that a HC could have a lapse like that. Makes you wonder about other things. GO BILLS!!!

Meathead Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 (edited) picked up three spiller got the first down next play......move on not really the point. if they really didnt know the down then thats just bizarrely embarrassing. otoh, it looks really bad but it still could have been a busted play. at least thats what im hoping. im sure they will get quizzed mercilessly on it, which they should, so we should have at least some explanation here shortly Edited December 17, 2012 by Meathead Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Livinginthepast Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 Was the Fitz 1st down sneak ever explained? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Florida Gator 14 Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 Was the Fitz 1st down sneak ever explained? Yes. Chan and Fitz both said it was a bad play they were in, and they didn't want to waste a time out. They said a safety would have come in untouched and stopped Spiller for a loss, and the out-play was a quick pass to Stevie, who was lined up to the side that the blitzing safety way on. Fitz just took the snap and ran to the gap that Spiller would have been shooting for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed. He's starting to get further and further from.... I'm not even sure what word to use. He used to strike me as organized and having a philosophy (like it or not)... But it's gotten very scatter shot and disjointed. Not very aware. Inconsistent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
