The announcers thought he hurt it, I thought he may have got a cut on it? I thought it was a finger. He hurt it on a pass play. There were more than two times later in the game he was pulling on it. It bothered him awhile but didn't seem to bother any throws. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ethan in Cleveland Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 Milano wasn't blocked into the QB. His momentum carried him into legs of Mariota. It was the correct call. The refs are awful all over the league. Too many calls and too many missed calls. Can't blame them for all the presnap penalties. The solution: make all calls reviewable by challenge. The game is too fast for the refs. They do an amazing job with many of the calls but there are just too many close spots and close calls. And I would add there are too many ticky tack calls. They need to let guys play and really try to determine if the action affects the outcome of the play or not. And as I said before make helmet to helmet a targetting foul subject to ejection.

You'll see Yeldon start and stop his route twice and the second one is when the interception happened That was awful. Yeldon is just not dependable in any way. I can't wait for a healthy Singletary. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's not how it works. The blocker did not push Milano into the QB. If that was Allen's knee buckling the way Mariota's did you would see it more clearly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The second sentence is flat wrong. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keepthefaith Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 Great bounce back game for Josh Allen. Call me surprised after last week and what had to be a difficult prep week for him. ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seasons1992 Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 Punter=Liability. I have to disagree, Virgil. Dude is either short or can’t pin anyone deep, currently. 3rd quarter=Liability. I could not agree more, Virgil. 31 minutes ago, Da webster guy said: Mafia is no joke.

John from Riverside Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 Just to add....we are four and one and going into our bye....just in time to lick some wounds on some much needed players Namely Devin Singletary.....who we need. What is getting lost in Gore's fine play is that he really is not a 25 carry back any more...you platoon him with a dynamic player like Devin and you see a fresher Gore and less designed Josh Allen plays....which at this point I would like to see much less of Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cotton Fitzsimmons Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 49 minutes ago, Rocbillsfan1 said: Daboll calling the qb sneak on 4th and 2 was the dumbest play call I’ve seen all season. Daboll has been ok with his game calling but I really hope he gets better as the season goes on. Rocbillsfan1, my good fellow, you are spot on per usual! YE OLE loves the fact that they are attempting to incorporate the concept of quick snapping the QB sneak, as we’ve seen the Patriots* run successfully ad nauseam. However, the execution has been far from crisp. Especially in that situation, it would’ve been nice to see them split everyone out wide and then quick snap and let Josh fall into the inevitable gaps left in the defensive front. Now YE OLE is a real armchair OC here, so take it with a grain of salt, but there could also be a variation where Josh could split everyone wide and step back into shotgun. He could then step under center and quick snap/plunge forward for several yards when the defense is really spread out and off balance. You could even start camouflaging it like Josh is coming up to communicate a protection/alignment or whatever and have some sort of check to quick snap and dive forward whenever presented with a gap between the C/G or wherever.

Drunken Pygmy Goat Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 The officials were shoddy, thats for sure. Two players side by side CLEARLY false start, yet encroachment is called, and it led to a TD. Milano holding call was garbage. And Milano was CLEARLY HELD on the 20+ yard Henry run, with Henry running right past them, yet no flag. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sherlock Holmes Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 Bojo can't place a ball inside the 25 except by touchback, and he can't not shank 20 yard punts every other punt. He's hot garbage so far, isn't this why Schmidt was cut? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Virgil Posted October 7, 2019 Author Share Posted October 7, 2019 You all realize he averaged over 50 yards per punt right? He also dropped two inside the 15. I’ve been a critic as much as the next guy, but he was solid today 5 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We certainly need better from the punter, consistency wise, but who else out there can replace him and be an upgrade. The Bills gave hon some competition this summer, and he won the job. I'm not necessarily saying there isn't someone better, I'm seriously curiois. But if there is someone, I think the Bills would have brought him in by now.

Punters that repeatedly drop them near the goal line/ inside the 20 on a consistent basis are great. Punters that avoid ***** up and don't give away great field position with occasional punts inside the 20 are okay to good.
