goynahan Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 So when I was watching the game against the Giants last week, I noticed that everytime Tyrod puts his mouthpiece in, the play is a passing play. Then when he doesn't, he sticks it up in his facemask and it's a running play. I specifically and intently watched for it during yesterday's game and without fail the same pattern occured, every play. Anyone else notice this? And if I noticed it, I'm sure other teams have right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevestojan Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 If that's true it's hilarious. If he really does that, and you discovered it, every coach should be fired. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoloinOhio Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 I didn't notice it but I could swear someone said the same thing about EJ at one point Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YattaOkasan Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 Also you should call OBD like now to tell them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wayne Cubed Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 (edited) Just went back and watched the first series of the game. 2nd play, puts his mouth piece in, run play to Boom Herron. Maybe he does it occasionally... Edited October 12, 2015 by Wayne Cubed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goynahan Posted October 12, 2015 Author Share Posted October 12, 2015 i remember the EJ thing too now that you mention it. @wayne Cubed you watch any more of the game to confirm or deny what I observed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RyanC883 Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 (edited) if he is aware of this habit, he can now start messing with the defense. Do it the first drive or something, then take it out, play-action long bomb to Watkins. btw, great catch if this is true. Amazing focus during the game. You should be a scout or something. That, or I'm sure Bill Bellicheck has some "jobs" for you Edited October 12, 2015 by RyanC883 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsFan-4-Ever Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 I didn't notice it but I could swear someone said the same thing about EJ at one point Was it Jim Kelly who used to have one of his double-chin chin strap snapped on certain plays?

Acantha Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 A long time ago someone posted about a WR leaving the huddle a little bit early on running plays (may have been Eric Moulds). Emailed the team about it and got a response back saying something along the lines of "We'll check it out". If it's really happening, you should let them know.

I called tom donahoe about eric moulds, left a detailed message with his secretary....to my surprise, he returned the call. I just watched the TEN game on gamepass.......taylor takes it out while in huddle, but puts it in his mouth everytime, run or pass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mango Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 Trent actually did have a tell. He would tap his helmet at the line every passing down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tu-Toned Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 Not to put pin in your balloon there, but I actually did notice and watch on one specific PASSING play where he had stuck up in his face guard, and I was thinking to myself, aren't you gonna put that in your mouth, he never did!

Nanker Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 I haven't heard a tip like this since Claire Trevor held a mirror up to William Bendix to show him he stuck his tongue out every time he threw a fast ball, in "The Babe Ruth Story".

Agent 91 Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 Was it Jim Kelly who used to have one of his double-chin chin strap snapped on certain plays? Not sure JK wore a double snap chin strap. Did he? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsFan-4-Ever Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 (edited) Not sure JK wore a double snap chin strap. Did he? To be honest I don't remember exactly. I thought some Bills QB did it years back I said 2 because leaving the one undone is a sure tell.

If he has been doing it, he is too stupid to try to set the other team up. if it's an "unconscious" habit, and now he is made aware of it, he could use it to play with the defense a bit.
