BuffaloMatt Posted September 9, 2019 Share Posted September 9, 2019 (edited) Can't arm tackle. Have to take the wheels of the bus. Next week we have Barkley - 11 carries for 120 yards. Edited September 9, 2019 by BuffaloMatt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miyagi-Do Karate Posted September 9, 2019 Share Posted September 9, 2019 Weird that they didn’t even show the replay of that play. Was really quick and confusing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, that was another stupid thing Gannon said. The Bills are going to have to start double-teaming Crowder. I thought to myself they were leaving him open to worry about the other guys who actually mattered. Don't get me wrong he's decent, but the gameplan left him as the one open and he is not going to beat you singlehandedly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

starrymessenger Posted September 9, 2019 Share Posted September 9, 2019 How did he get it? The hard way. He's a great back. Mind you Singletary gained more yards on the ground yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dopey Posted September 9, 2019 Share Posted September 9, 2019 2 hours ago, Bills2ref said: I don’t mind Bell for his hold out. He went about it respectfully unlike his teammate. Bell just sat out, didn’t hammer Instagram or hire a social media consultant team to help force his release. Then he signed as a free agent. He also plays a position in the NFL where you likely get one big contract before “expiring” from your prime. Unlike WR’s who are given huge money deals. Yes I just turned this into a Bell Vs AB thing, but one went about it the right way IMO (Bell). As long as keeps having 14+ catches for under 100 yards I’ll take it all day. Agreed.

MJS Posted September 9, 2019 Share Posted September 9, 2019 I yelled in triumph. Then he lunged for the 1st down. It was an embarrassing moment. My 4 year old asked me "Did the good guys win?". I had to explain to her my foolishness. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I though he was stuffed in the backfield for a negative rush, I was screaming in jubilation. Then I looked up and saw 1st and 10 with the Jets offense getting ready for the next snap. WTF!!!??? Who else was totally fooled like me? They showed a quick replay and it looked like Bell fell forward and squirmed just enough to get the 1st....but it had me totally fooled. I jumped up and was yelling + celebrating. Didn’t see the replay, then I look up at the TV and Darnold is throwing a pass on 1st & 10 and I was like “WTF is going on here?!” lol Yep. I was totally fooled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beach Posted September 9, 2019 Share Posted September 9, 2019 Bell did a great job on that play and had a few other good runs.... but i thought the announcers were over praising him the whole game. i didnt think he was that great overall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually thought Bell was excellent. Got more yards than he should have just about every run, made very difficult catches look routine. That his final stat line looked so pedestrian, that's the Bills Defense for you. Edited September 9, 2019 by Ralonzo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s got a long way to go to earn that moniker. Right now Yep he is one of the best if not the best back to play the game. He will easily be a First Ballot HOFer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gotta wonder how much of the mental lapses and dumb penalties the Process is going to tolerate before elevating the next Miami refugee Vince Taylor.

Jerome007 Posted September 9, 2019 Share Posted September 9, 2019 I too was high fiving my kids and just pumped. And then I turn around to see the missed long pass attempt. I was really weirded out, totally confused LOL. I had to rewind and watch again... twice. Bell made a great play, period. No need to blame the tackers on that one. All the end, including the penalty... to the Jets, had me on edge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he was a Bill the refs would have called the play dead on lack of forward progress, and not counted the second push. 4 hours ago, ganesh said: I think the Bills covered Bell and the other WR giving space for Crowder and Darnold took what was given to him. To the whopping tune of 7 yards per reception for Crowder and something like 4.3 yards per attempt for Darnold. I'll give them that all day long. 1 hour ago, Beach said: Bell did a great job on that play and had a few other good runs.... but i thought the announcers were over praising him the whole game. i didnt think he was that great overall. I like to think that our run D was just that good, in that Bell actually did well to manage 3.5 ypc. Like a lesser RB would have only managed 3.0 ypc. That's how I lived with the annoyance of the CBS crew blowing him all game long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExWNYer Posted September 9, 2019 Share Posted September 9, 2019 Count me in the 'thought they made the stop camp'. I think the less than optimal camera angle initially fooled those of us who thought he had been stopped. I was high-fiving a buddy who had come over to watch with me, my wife, and my younger son. We all thought the Bills had held until that unsettling 'WTF?!' moment washed over all of us. Thankfully, everything worked out in the end but not before having to endure several more minutes of angst. Such is the life of a Bills fan.
