Really need to start throwing the ball on early downs.Ā  Miami, and every other team for that matter, is sitting on the run knowing it is coming.Ā  Not doing Allen any favors when it is 3rd and long every series.

Ā 

The easiest down to throw on is 1st and the Bills donā€™t do it nearly enough.

The ball never crossed the line of scrimmage. Pretty straight forward call.

Ā 

But McCoy was in the area so it doesn't matter. If that was Tom Brady and James White/Rex Burkehead they don't throw the flag. So why is it any different for usĀ

The refs don't even know the rules. Intentional grounding is always a spot foul and loss of down, not a 10-yard penalty from the previous spot. It really pisses me off when the refs don't even know the rules better than some fat dude sitting on his couch.Ā 

Not always:Ā 

Penalty: ForĀ intentional grounding:

  1. loss of down and 10 yards from the previous spot; or

  2. loss of down at the spot of the foul; or

  3. if the passer is in his end zone when the ball is thrown, it is a safety. SeeĀ 4-7Ā for actions to conserve time inside one minute of either half.

Note: If the foul occurs less than 10 yards behind the line of scrimmage, but more than half the distance to the goal line, the ball is to be placed at the spot of the pass.

I didnā€™t see anyone in the area at the time of the throw.Ā 

Ā 

The silly speculation aboutĀ whether Brady gets every call we get is old.
