Buffarukus Posted September 15, 2019 Share Posted September 15, 2019 i dont want to live in a world where someone is hovering talking ***** to the qb and noone gets in his face. brings horrable memories of the gronk play. im sure this has brought up but what was allen thinking just dropping the ball immediatly. i know the whistle blew but it was almost simultanious. wheew that was close to a game losing mistake.

Frank Farkle Posted September 15, 2019 Share Posted September 15, 2019 If you think that the Patriots linemen wouldn't go apesh!t in defense of Brady, you're kidding yourself. Even Belechick would have been walking onto the field. Several here described it exactly how I saw it. Those dopes on the broadcast (along with the retired official dope) totally got that wrong. The refs were blowing all sorts of calls (both sides) in this game. For example, on Singletary's TD, there was an obvious facemask penalty right in front of the ref. It turned out to be moot, but nobody said boo despite it being close up with the end zone camera. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrDawkinstein Posted September 15, 2019 Share Posted September 15, 2019 I'll take that 15 yard penalty every time. And if it keeps happening, the problem isnt the OLine getting penalties, the problem is it means the league is doing nothing as teams continue to cheap shot our young QB. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJS Posted September 15, 2019 Share Posted September 15, 2019 Ultimately the penalty was not even that costly. Would have been 4th down and punting regardless, so that's certainly a low risk time to show you have your QB's back. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob_L Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 Check out Josh's response to Cody Ford getting the penalty (last question in the post game interview) - basically he says that the coach won't like the penalty but as a quarterback he appreciates when linemen stick up for him and "I will take care of him". That's my quarterback. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If this is a one time thing, so be it. If it continues, it will get old quick. You have it backwards. Your QB taking those hits becomes a continuous thing without these types of plays and attitude.

akm0404 Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 The line balled out today, and Ford's penalty was both called for and a mandatory reaction, especially after someone took a cheapie at Josh last week. Completely standard. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhitewalkerInPhilly Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 Honestly when I saw the flag I thought "oh good, were getting the drive extended". Then I saw the hand pointed to the Bill's side and went "oh, were going to get offsetting penalties" I have no idea how dragging Allen for a few seconds after he released, grabbing his pads and shoving him to the ground isn't a penalty if lightly shoving someone after the play is. Especially when...I think it was Dawkins got shoved after the play in the second half. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orlando Tim Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 Based on the calls I saw all over the league that was a penalty that should have been called on the hit on Allen. I am good with Ford also since if officials will not do job someone needs to step up. Lastly the defender clearly flopped and the officials probably should not have called anything but whatever- we won. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apocalypse Nuts Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 (edited) I love Cody! Absolutely love his fire. We will get to watch him do great stuff like this for many years hopefully. Far too often o-line guys are soft. Cody don’t play around. Reminds me of...we’ll me. I’m a bit of a hot-head myself (bipolar). Allen is surely very pleased to have a very large bodyguard for the few years. Hopefully Cody gets a little better at tackle. I’m sure he can have a long successful career at guard. Either way I personally hope he’s a Buffalo Bill. (Full disclosure I’m a Sooners fan too) Edited September 16, 2019 by Distorted One 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Real McClappy Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 (edited) If the refs would have thrown a flag against the BS late hit or roughing I doubt Ford does anything. I'm 100% all for this if the Refs aren't doing their job. I fully expect our O-line to protect and stick up for our QB.

wppete Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 (edited) Sure that was a penalty but I’m my eyes that was a standup move by Ford. He is all in on this team you can tell by the way he talks about this team and his passion. He’s not going to let anyone mess with his QB and he is one of Allen’s enforcers. ? Speaking of the UFC, I can see Cody Ford as a UFC heavyweight smashing people!!!! That NYG DE was lucky Ford didn't destroy him.

You can argue sticking up for your QB until your blue in the face and I’m all for that, but the rookie needs to be smarter about it. There are other ways to protect your guy and show your force than after the play right in front of the ref Worst take ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd rather take the call when a player sees his QB illegally tackled. Are you ignorant of the illegality of how Josh was taken to the ground, and the potential for injury when a player is tackled in such a way? The refs had their heads up their asses on that play.

Livinginthepast Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 I loved what he did pushing that idiot off Josh. I cant even believe Ford got a penalty. The Giant player flopped over like a Euro soccer player in the box and conned the ref. There hasn't been enough of that kind of feistiness by the Bills players in the last few years when it comes to standing up for each other and I was glad to see it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just Joshin' Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 It is part of building a tough, nasty OL. When protecting your QB, it is the right thing to do. No problem with it.

It can, however, be extremely tiring when posters such as yourself refuse to see another perspective and will instead attack it with unsubstantiated bull####. In true 21st century debate form, you’ve latched onto a single statement I made about a specific play, and made a generalized assumption and unfair inference about an entire positional group that is at best, hyperbole. There was zero practical need for Ford to make that play. Argue “toughness” or “brotherhood” all you want. But the reason our OL is much better this year than last is not because of their willingness to take 15 unnecessary roughness penalties defending their QB You don’t know what you are talking about.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freddie's Dead Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 You'd like to see Ford keep his cool there, but I don't have too many issues with that penalty, especially since Josh was facemasked and head-slapped on the play.
