What a Tuel Posted October 10, 2015 Share Posted October 10, 2015 (edited) Yeap, its the only thing in focus, and there's no sign of compression that would take place had it been on the ground. The ref had a perfect angle to view it, as did the bills player (I think brown) and there was no protest from him. Never seen such sour grapes after a regular season loss, and to a non-conferenxe opponent to boot, as this one. Sour grapes? Rather than sour grapes, I would say it is keeping a keen eye on the poor officiating. Will people be wrong sometimes? Yeah. But it isn't our jobs to officiate, it is theirs, and they are doing a poor job of it, and we are right to complain. The "everyone gets penalized" argument gets old quick when you stop and think that you are justifying the poor level of officiating which is clearly affecting every game by saying the poor level of officiating happens to everyone. Edit I mean really? The officials are bad but they are bad for everyone so it is ok? What happened to the best team winning?

IDBillzFan Posted October 10, 2015 Share Posted October 10, 2015 Would not have mattered. That game was a beat-down. Jeez, I swear some of you are just completely unhinged. The Bills against Miami was a beat-down. The Giants game was a loss by the Bills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoSaint Posted October 10, 2015 Share Posted October 10, 2015 I went back and had another look at this replay for the Zebra report. You can't tell real-time or on the replay Fox showed that he went out of bounds. Do we know that photo is legit? Even if legit- still frames can play tricks on the mind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PortlandiaEast Posted October 11, 2015 Share Posted October 11, 2015 (edited) https://instagram.com/p/8mdvXqtFV-/ Shows pretty clearly his foot on the white paint. Aren't all scoring plays reviewed? Again, refs coming up short. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bt1TiaoSvvY Looks like he stepped out around the 35 yard line. I hope this weeks episode is better than last week.

Nervous Guy Posted October 11, 2015 Share Posted October 11, 2015 I merged this instead of locking and making a snide comment like beerball does...in the future glance around and see if someone started a similar topic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaloFan68 Posted October 11, 2015 Share Posted October 11, 2015 I still feel that if the game was officiated properly we would have won. TERRIBLE TERRIBLE officiating that seemed very favorable towards 1 team over the other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave mcbride Posted October 11, 2015 Share Posted October 11, 2015 (edited) That really looks photoshopped to me. The shoe is the only element in the image without a pixellated gauze over it. Simply compare the white in the Nike swoosh on Jennings' shoe with the rest of the white in the image (on the Bills player, Rambo, and the sideline). Everyone move along.

Ya know, I initially said it was photshopped above just as a smart ass comment because we failed in so many other areas...but it seems more people are, in fact, thinking it's photo shopped. I have no idea if it is or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hapless Bills Fan Posted October 11, 2015 Share Posted October 11, 2015 I couldn't believe they didn't throw the challenge flag. For all Rex's talk, he hasn't impressed me at all yet I hate NFL rules as to what plays are challengeable worse than I hate NFL rules about practice squad eligibility. That said, I don't believe that play was challengable. So whether or not you are impressed by Rex should not be affected by his failure to flow a challenge flag on a non-challengable play. I personally was not impressed when Rex challenged the play where Tyrod Taylor was ruled OOB before he threw the ball away - that was not challengeable. I thought it was, but I'm not an NFL head coach and Rex has a responsibility to know the rules way better than I do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peterpan Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 He was DEFINITELY OUT. It is not a photo shopped image Did anyone happen to catch the Castrol motor oil commercial during the Titans broadcast? It was one of those "play of the game" type commercials. They showed the 50 yards TD where Bradham missed the tackle. However, when I think Corey Graham went for his legs near the sideline, the ball carrier actually stepped OUT OF BOUNDS!!!! His toe drags on the white. With the high def, slow-mo commercial having the perfect angle and could not have shown it more clearly. Anyone else catch this on Sunday? I posted a new thread about this not knowing this one existed. If anyone can dig up the commercial it will show it plain as day. I tried but with no luck.

dollars 2 donuts Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 (edited) ah, meaning it was automatically reviewed. so why, then, was it not brought back after it was sent to ny? J-Dubs, it seems like you answered your own question. Edited October 14, 2015 by dollars 2 donuts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reed83HOF Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 If the league listened to Belicheck, would not have this issue. He wants cameras so... With as sophisticated as the Pats* in the AV department it's obvious why they don't listen to him... Bellicheck* wants cameras... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nanker Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 That screen shot of Jennings' foot is plainly photoshopped. Can't believe you guys fell for it. Moving on. Oopsie! You forgot to log in under your Comish handle for that one BBF! I did. Me too, in real time and on that replay. Thought it was pretty ironic them showing the big play and glossing over the rubber buttons being scuffed by his shoe when he dragged it across the line marker.
