YoloinOhio Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 (edited) As DC of the NYG, Belicheat effed with Norwood's kicking ball, we will eventually learn it was improper psi, he will be exposed and punished, and the Bills will be awarded the SB trophy after all.

The good news is, they're gonna find out that the ball was tampered with. The bad news is, they're gonna bring in Scott Norwood and the rest of the 1990 Bills and Giants for a rekick, and they have to use the new narrowed goalposts.

JLO Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 Wasnt there an issue with the Giants pulling some dirty tricks to run time off the clock like knocking the ball of the tee...something to that effect? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cwchze Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 a few things ive always dwelled on: 1. back then when you spiked the ball it was moved back to where you spiked it, cost us 5 yards and maybe the kick hits the upright and goes in...probably not 2.no two point conversion..we definately would of done that to tie the game. 3. thruman gets tackled at the last second before he was wide open to end zone. 4.andre drops a certain first down in the first quater on a crossing route.. at the giants 45 we punt and the giants control the friggin ball 5.how does hostletler hold onto the ball when bruce sacks him and how the hell did he come back in the game after leon seals demolishes him with that sack. I thought he killed him.. friggin 10 feet..kick still looks good initially... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thebandit27 Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 Without struggle there can be nothing to overcome Without loss there can be no victory Without pain there can be no triumph over it One day, we WILL win a Superbowl...and when we do, we will appreciate it more than any fan base in the history of the NFL. That day has never been closer. Rest easy, wide right will not define us forever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thrivefourfive Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 On the final drive, I didn't like Kelly's ball placement to, I think, to Metzelaars over the middle...right before the kick. It was low and even though it was caught, the big TE didn't have the opportunity to push forward for an extra 2-3 yards. I honestly think that "47 yards" was Norwood's undoing. That was a big number for weak legged kickers back then. 44, and he nails it!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cwchze Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 5 yds is 15 feet na I was referring to he missed the kick by 10 feet wide right...move the ball up 5 yards and maybe...but doesnt matter...spilt milk..no sense dwelling on it man we were a good team..

sfbillsfan Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 read it in the paper today, "on this day", wid, no I can't say (type it). There have been a number of thoughts about key plays, I still look back to the catch by Ingram & his finding a way to get a 1st down & Giants score at the end of the 1st half. Of course there were other plays, tough day in the Bills history. On the brighter side, in 15 years our beloved Bills have not LOST a post season game. Even the cheatriots can't say that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thrivefourfive Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 Back in the heyday, I remember Buffalo seeming blowing every single important defensive 3rd down. I know that that's not the case, but the "prevent" defensive and 10 yard cushion on anything over 3rd & 2 drove me absolutely nuts. It's like I already lived through that Ingram play so many times I wasn't even fazed when it happened The most excitement and optimism the BIlls gave me this year was looking freaking great on 3rd down. So proud of the 2014 defensive, especially given what the offensive did to them over and over and over......Carpenter...it's good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thebandit27 Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 That's the single play that lost that game. It was already lost when Norwood lined up. No, no it wasn't. If he made that kick, they would've won the Superbowl (assuming they covered the ensuing kickoff--there was :04 left on the clock when Norwood missed). That's how the NFL works--until the game is over, either team is allowed to win it regardless of what happened on previous plays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
