Steptide Posted October 26, 2019 Share Posted October 26, 2019 (edited) I remember the last game of 2008 against the Patriots the game was super windy. Belichick used the wind against us and had Cassel throwing in the wind. Hopefully McDermott uses the same method. In tomorrow's game, I woukd actually defer the kickoff (if we win it) and have the eagles playing against the wind Edited October 26, 2019 by Steptide Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm going to say the Bills rush for 175 yards...80 for Gore, 60 for Singletary, and 35 for Josh -- with each scoring a TD. I like the Bills chances with those stats.

I hope we LOSE the coin toss. Then take wind in fourth! Please correct me if I am wrong. Edited October 26, 2019 by ExiledInIllinois Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you choose just the wind direction if you win the toss? Then let the other team decide possession? Might be wise if you can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always advocated defer when in actually you couldn't. It's most important to get ball right before 1/2 and 3rd 1/4 kick... That's a potential 16 point swing. In Buffalo, going with the wind in 4th trumps it all! Somebody post a clear and concise way the coin toss works... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warren Zevon Posted October 26, 2019 Share Posted October 26, 2019 Usually a coin is flipped by a thumb After that who knows - they've messed with it so much over the past few years Seriously, though, I think... Whoever wins the toss gets the choice to choose possession or field direction. The loser of the toss gets to then choose whatever the winner did not go with, usually field direction. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Winter Hell blew in during the game as the weather turned from Autumn to blizzard Winter in the span of time it took to play the game. Team benches were blown out halfway onto the field! Punts went backward! We blew them out 45-10, but it took me 8 hours to get home to Dansville, having to get out and push a couple times. It was insane! Yeah, but in Buffalo specifically, ‘wait 5 minutes’ means you’ll hate it even more! My first game, dad took me when I was 11. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boatdrinks Posted October 26, 2019 Share Posted October 26, 2019 (edited) Winner of coin toss gets to choose one of two privileges with the loser to be given the other : (a) the opportunity to receive the kickoff or to kick off ( b) the choice of which goal to defend OR they can defer their choice until the second half.
