Joe Gibbs made the proper move, calling time just before the 51-yard kick, wiping out what would have been a game-winner. The crowd celebrated this apparent good fortune.

Then they sat stunned by what happened next.

Gibbs called a second consecutive timeout, thereby earning an automatic 15-yard penalty for unsportsmanlike conduct. Ryan Lindell then booted a 36-yarder for the game-winning points.

Referee Tony Corrente told a pool reporter after the game that if the kicker is on the field and in position to kick the ball, then a second consecutive timeout is an automatic penalty. If the kicker is not on the field, officials would ignore an attempt to call a second straight timeout.

 

Was that the Sean Taylor game where the Skins lined up on the first play with 10 guys and we totally took advantage of it?

not sure but 

 

the Sean Taylor game, the Bills took advantage of 1 play . 

 

December 2, 2007- Rian Lindell hits a game-winning field goal to keep the Bills' playoff hopes alive against the Redskins. This was Washington's first game after the tragic death of Sean Taylor.

Bills face Redskins in start of run against losing teams

 

Buffalo Bills fans who were hoping for another receiver to jazz up the NFL's 24th-ranked scoring offense didn't get their wish before Tuesday's trade deadline. The team chose not to make any moves, feeling the nucleus that has them off to a 5-2 start is plenty capable of securing a second playoff spot in three years.

 

he wisdom of that decision could be played out as soon as Sunday, when they wrap up a three-game homestand in Orchard Park, N.Y., against the 1-7 Washington Redskins.

While some fans might not have been thrilled with Buffalo's inaction, players such as tight end Lee Smith and wide receiver Cole Beasley feel the continuity will outweigh the pros of bringing in a big name that could have taken pressure off Beasley and John Brown.

"These are the dudes that are going to be with me down the home stretch," Smith said. "It's nice to know that my brothers and guys I develop relationships with are going to get to finish this thing together for the rest of this season, so that's cool."

The schedule certainly syncs with management's feeling that the Bills as presently constituted are a playoff team. Their next four games are against teams with a combined five wins (Washington, Cleveland, Miami and Denver). They could be 9-2 by the time they run a late-season gauntlet of Dallas, Baltimore, Pittsburgh and New England.

So this guy is putting it all on two weak Bills offensive possessions and not on the two Eagles 3rd quarter possessions that resulted in 14 freaking points?  Is that how revisionist thinking works?

 

And how about that 4th quarter Eagles drive that went 84 yards into the wind; chewed up over 8 minutes of playing time and put the game out of reach at 31 - 13.  Does this genius think that might have played a role in the loss?

 

 

 

 

I think he is hinting at the D getting worn down.
