1st Ammendment NoMas Posted December 24, 2016 Share Posted December 24, 2016 that we were going to lose after Clay caught the TD pass with a little over a minute left. I wasn't sure how we would !@#$ up I just knew we would. Typical Bills football. At least 4 games we could have easily won with just playing basic fundamental football. This team is so disgusting to watch. I got sick of listening to the announcers defend Rex and tell us how the Bills came to play hard. That many missed tackles is just plain sucky football.

fridge Posted December 24, 2016 Share Posted December 24, 2016 I started doing the math. The first thing that really got me upset was Tyrod running out of bounds on third and goal on our go-ahead possession. Just another showing of a complete lack of awareness.

turbo044 Posted December 24, 2016 Share Posted December 24, 2016 I think trying to score a TD on 4th and goal was a bit more important than running out of bounds. Stupid argument there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you exaggerate. He has great awareness most of the time. This was one moment of not being aware enough. And that's not why we lost.

MDH Posted December 24, 2016 Share Posted December 24, 2016 I knew if they didn't score a TD on the first drive of OT it was over. When Carp trotted out there I didn't think theyd win even if he hit it. They needed a TD there because the ad was unreliable, to put it mildly.

Marv's Neighbor Posted December 24, 2016 Share Posted December 24, 2016 I stopped watching when we went to OT. I always feel that they have a better chance if "I" don't watch. Guess that's another theory out the window? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dragonborn10 Posted December 26, 2016 Share Posted December 26, 2016 The Bush play is such an odd call at that time. Five rushes by McCoy/Gillislee and they are in the end-zone. The dolphins were playing the edge ok. They were kiling them between the guard-tackle ot tackle -TE gaps. Too cute. They could have run the same stop route to Watkins again for 15 yards. And if they ran the fake option with Watkins running underneath, either Woods or Goodwin would have been wide open over the top. One fake hitch to Watkins and the safeties would have bitten with Goodwin streaking by them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1st Ammendment NoMas Posted December 26, 2016 Author Share Posted December 26, 2016 I absolutely thought we would win. You haven't been a Bills Fan long enough. Take away 1997-2001 and this rarely, if ever happens (unless it was the f'king SuperBowl where we shat the bed 4 years in a row) I've been following this team like a rabid dog for over 45 years and it is horrendously painful.

Terrell Davis had trampled the Bills D for around 200 yards on the ground that day. We have reached the point where we have seen even the bizarre failures more than once.

Yup. Remember the comeback game against the Raiders a few years ago? It was the week after our only legitimate victory against the Patriots since 2003. The Raiders just missed a hail mary to Denarius Moore at the end of regulation to win the game. The call was an incomplete pass. The players shook hands and went to the locker room, post-game had started and then they cut to the sideline reporter talking about how the refs were discussing whether it was actually a catch a good 5-10 mins after the final whistle and whether the players would have to come back out. Don't remember that ever happening before or since. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aren't you the CEO of the koolaid drinkers here? You jump all over anyone who has a critical word to say about the organization and then you say you're "quietly" rooting for them to fail in the biggest game of the year. The team was still alive in the playoff race. And would have been going into week 17 with the way things shaped up this weekend. What kind of fan hopes for a loss in a game like that? Anyway, you got your wish. Congrats. ..and on top of that, you stop the clock, and then call a timeout. If you didn't score a TD on that 4th down play. You damn sure would've needed all 3 of those timeouts. Another immensely stupid error by Rex that got forgotten because they got the TD. Seriously, this fat bastard can't be gone soon enough.

Its not TTs fault the defense couldnt stop the fins with the game on the line. That attitude reminds me of all the people here who couldn't care less how many unsportsmanlike penalties Stevie Johnson got. The lack of basic situational awareness and understanding that the game is 60 minutes long (not 58 1/2) prevails at OBD from top to bottom and explains why they are a loser franchise. The point is, if the QB has a clue, the defense isn't put in that position. No one is ever accountable for stepping up on this team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
