Happy Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 Still a crap call. What are DBs supposed to do, let the receiver run 5 yards before tackling them? He made the catch and was turning to become a runner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RocCityRoller Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 T White just shut down S Diggs. Took him out of the game completely. This was a BS call, but what a good corner. get him a decent CB opposite and this secondary is special. T Johnson is coming along nicely, good future nickle IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoPar_v2 Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 That interpretation is even worse than the helmet-to-helmet rationale. Riveron is so stupid he’s too stupid to realize when he’s making himself sound even stupider. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Real McClappy Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 Was a garbage call along with illegal block in the back when we are punting and the challenge call to reverse a fumble that was a pass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One Buffalo Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 He was supposed to two-hand touch him and not tackle him... if he had done so, then surely Thielen would have stopped right there, short of the first down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

berg1029 Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 This call makes zero sense. How can they say it is "unnecessary roughness"? If he doesn't hit him and prevent him from gaining yards, dude gets the first down! I'd say it was necessary roughness 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doc Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 One of the first replays I saw showed Tre's helmet not even contacting Diggs;. The others make it appear that they hit based on perspective. As for defenseless receiver, BS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RaoulDuke79 Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 Absolutely terrible call. The game of football is changing for the worse.

LeGOATski Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 Was it because he went high and hit the head? That's the only issue I can see with it. Not sure he could help that, anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TigerJ Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 The Bills overcame a poorly officiated game today. There was also a personal foul called against a Buffalo player for helmet to helmet in a tackle of Cousins. There was a little bit of incidental helmet contact, butit was not direct in the least. And there was the call of a fumble when Allen tried to do a shovel pass to the running back crossing in front of him. 3 minutes ago, WhoTom said: I agree that penalties should be reviewable, but as we saw in the fumble "confirmation," the replay official doesn't always get it right either. Right. CBS's officiating expert basically called that one "bogus." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GunnerBill Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 Awful call. I think the refs were bad. I thought we got away with the Humber one at the end of the 1st half (which was either an unneccessary roughness call or an incomplete pass) and the refs blew that too.

JerseyBills Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 Terrible call, great play. He's a stud , trailing #1 WR all year and is a great tackler. Hope 27 is here for 12 more years 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has been the case for years. A guy raising his hands to catch a ball he is looking at can’t really defend himself. If helmets hit in that situation, expect a flag.

Think he had forced him out of bounds didn't need to wrap up and come down on him. But whether it was or it wasn't.... the result of the play was in no way a 3 yard gain. It was either 15 yard penalty and 1st down or incomplete pass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peterpan Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 The NFL players union desperately needs to get involved with these rule changes. The call on clay Mathews this week is even worse and the NFL is defending it. I'm dying for a winter, feb-april new football league with good rules.
