Not at the table Karlos Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 Backup to AW, backup to Darby, backup to Gilmore, and nearly made it onto the cuts list even after coming back. How far is it from the truth?when was he back up to AW(Leo started at the other corner), Darby(leo was injured) and gilmore(Leo started at the other corner)? And when did he almost get cut?

How far is it from the truth? You are blind to the truth. He's performed very well IMO at CB prior to injury and I think he filled in well at safety. He on the field is so far superior to D. Williams which was another coaching fail. That's enough back and forth on this one, you see one thing I see another. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jobu Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 McLovin is a good defensive ball player, he needs to stop returning punts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being our 3rd corner clearly means you are a practice squad guy. Your either 1st or your last Ricky Bobby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BringBackFergy Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 Like I said earlier, I see Rex jumping in front of the sucky official before he brings the whistle to his lips and exhales. I really don't care what an unbiased blind depends wearing former sucky official says. #BlindDependsWearingOfficialsLivesMatter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Gun Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 The loss had nothing to do with coaching. Great game plan. Good discipline. Just didn't make plays on offense. This^^^ Yep. Too many missed opportunities from well designed plays that were just flat out poorly executed. This also^^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Webster Guy Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 Rex and Dennis had a great defensive gameplan and the defense did enough to win that game. Lets see another team go into Foxboro and hold them to 17. (i'm not counting the leodis fumble that let to three points, that wasn't on the D) The one mistake I think Rex has made is tinkering with the special teams too much this season. It was a mistake to let Thigpen go, it was a mistake to let Goodwin return kickoffs knowing his injury history, bringing in Cundiff and releasing Gay for a week or two (really Rex?), and it was a mistake to try and insert Leodis in there as a punt returner when he's so rusty. Keeping Dixon instead of Freddy for special teams was such a blunder. Fred was an awesome punt returner because he protected the ball and had great hands. No he's not going to break one, but he's not gonna fumble either and that's all I care about on the punt return. Get me 8 yards and hang on to the ball.

Miyagi-Do Karate Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 I can't believe people are blaming Rex for that interference call. Coaches are over the white all the time. They just called it there as a make-up/compromise. If there is no screw-up by the ref, it's not called. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Urban myth Freddie was not a fumbler, either as a runner or a punt catcher. But i do agree we would be better off with Thigpen , No 17 just flat out sucks at football. yes, he had a great game agaisnt us 10 years ago..i don't care, he sucks!

They just called it there as a make-up/compromise. If there is no screw-up by the ref, it's not called. Also, no one is looking into why the whistle was blown in the first place. If you get right down to it, that whistle was blown because the side judge was worried that Tommy Boy would be hit by rolling out and would simply throw the ball away (as he did 5 times last night). To protect Brady and avoid any possible contact with his unwrinkled uniform...he blew the whistle early.

Beerball Posted November 24, 2015 Author Share Posted November 24, 2015 I can't believe people are blaming Rex for that interference call. Who would you have us blame? Oh, I know the answer to this one, my apologies. It's the refs. Also, no one is looking into why the whistle was blown in the first place.

Cmon, that play happens all the time. To me its obvious ref knew he blew the call...why the hell else is he following the ball so intently after he blew the play dead??? Should his eyes not be focused down on field where he wants to spot the ball if he thought was play was dead??? he was the guy who blew the friggen whistle! That penalty was called because he KNEW as soon as be blew the whistle he screwed up...and Rex was just the excuse he needed. Mind you, i think Rex his a horrible, and i mean horrible, game day coach...always has been. Edited November 24, 2015 by plenzmd1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freddie's Dead Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 +1 Bills Penalties - 5 for 44 Much improved with the exception of the hold that nullified the INT The hold was the only reason the INT happened. Gronk makes the catch cleanly otherwise. I can't believe people are blaming Rex for that interference call. Coaches are over the white all the time. They just called it there as a make-up/compromise. If there is no screw-up by the ref, it's not called. What I want to know is why the ref was in the green. If the ref is on the white, none of it happens.

bisonbrigade Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 All I want to say is this - Did you honestly think the Bills had a good chance to defeat the Cheaters before the game started? YES, and We will beat them in the playoffs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xsoldier54 Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 So it's all good then! Mistakes don't matter when you weren't supposed to win. The fact is that the Bills got beat by a better team last night. Mistakes happen in every game to every team. The idea is to limit them and I think the coaching staff did a good job of preparing this team and limiting mistakes. The Pats made plays when they needed to and the Bills did not and that was the difference. NE is simply a better team and it showed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Hansen Forever Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 Rex Ryan is a loud-mouth idiot. He will lead the Buffalo Bills nowhere. His first half tantrum on the sideline was embarrassing. He can't coach a football team - period! And Tyrod Taylor is a back-up QB at best. I agree with your statement about Rex, but I think Tyrod has a horrible OC that is limiting his potential. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
