Doc Brown Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 I agree with him that TNF games should be done away with. It's immature and pathetic if he blames the loss on it though as the Jets had the same time to prepare. The next CBA should be fun with all the craziness going on between the players, the owner, and the president. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atlbillsfan1975 Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 this could explain the lack luster performance if held by other players. I get it sucks, I get Richie is banged up and a vet and doesnt like his routine being changed, but to be successful they need to overcome adversity. Tonight was everything we had hoped it would not be. The Bills need to start letting rational but passionate fans come speak at practices ! Fire these guys up a little maybe and see what they are playing for besides all the money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobbyC81 Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 I agree. The Jets stayed home to practice/rest more while Bills had to travel to NYC on short week with less practice/rest. Dilly dilly! If you look at the results of the Thursday night games for the last couple of years, most of them are won easily by the home team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Brown Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 (edited) Dilly dilly! If you look at the results of the Thursday night games for the last couple of years, most of them are won easily by the home team. It's an hour and a half flight. Road teams are 4-4 on TNF this year not including the Chiefs win. It's a pathetic excuse. Edited November 3, 2017 by Doc Brown Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott7975 Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 (edited) Its no excuse for the utter embarrasment on the field last night, but he is right they do suck for both teams. On the flipside they get 10 days now to rest/recoup/prepare for Saints at home. Edited November 3, 2017 by Scott7975 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KHAN Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 I think Thursday games suck. Richie is right. It wasn't unfair to us, and we got our ass kicked. Â I have 2 solutions. Â Thursday game week one. Then starting week 5, both teams off a bye week. Â 2 Monday night games. One east coast game at 6PM. One west coast game at 9:30.

Bleeding Bills Blue Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 (edited) It's an hour and a half flight. Road teams are 4-4 on TNF this year not including the Chiefs win. It's a pathetic excuse.I think he's pissed that if your guys injured you get like... half the time. Film on Monday, 2 practices, no walkthrough. And a travel day. Just a hectic few days.

Billsfansinceday1 Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 I agree with Richie. There is no way that a quality product can be put on the field after just 4 days with little time to heal or prepare. All things are equal, of course, but Thursdays are usually not good contests.

oldmanfan Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 They may be.. but not really an excuse for the poor execution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vincec Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 I think the quality of play suffers, and agree with RI  #Istandwithrichie No question. But it’s better for him to keep his mouth shut and not start making excuses, adding to the debacle of them coming completely apart in this game.

May Day 10 Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 I dont mind thursday games so much... but they do provide a big advantage to the home team   I would like to see them schedule these in conjunction with bye weeks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prickly Pete Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 No question. But it’s better for him to keep his mouth shut and not start making excuses, adding to the debacle of them coming completely apart in this game.  I would rather he didn't say anything, but it's not a big deal in the grand scheme of their season.

apuszczalowski Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 I agree. The Jets stayed home to practice/rest more while Bills had to travel to NYC on short week with less practice/rest.yeah, the bills had to take that what, 30 minute flight to the other side of the state to play this game, must have been exhausting....

1st Ammendment NoMas Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 Thursday and the London/Mexico games suck. It is a crapshoot. But tonight the crap got shot on us. I'm covered with BBFS ****. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baskingridgebillsfan Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 Richie is right. Thursday games are a crapshoot, and the entertainment value of the product of the field is piss poor as well. But it does work both ways. And Richie and the rest of the line: you did get your asses handed to you. last Thursday game was a complete blow out too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain_Quint Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 I dont think he said its why they lost. He just said that the games themselves suck to try to prepare for. Thursday and the London/Mexico games suck. It is a crapshoot. But tonight the crap got shot on us. I'm covered with BBFS ****. There's a Process to clean that off.
