i believe if you win the toss, you can pick direction, not pick defer/ball. What that means is the patriots can elect to basically receive the kickoff to open both the first and second halves.  

Yes you can, but why?  No excuse to ever give away a possession. 

 

Pretty certain that gets said player/coached a lifetime ban from the sport 😁

I saw a lot of talk obviously about the returners being inactive... but the real head scratcher to me is why is Gilliam out?? Possible weather game, need to run and thats the day we sit our only FB? I dont understand the thought process here.

 

I assume for goal line they will put Knox at FB and put an extra tackle eligible at TE?

Wouldn't be surprised if the answer is nobody.  With this wind, the balls gonna go where it goes.  Don't risk a fumble.

 

Somebody at least has to catch the kickoff.  I am guess Hyde.  He has done it before and has good hands at least.

The risk is if it blows out of bounds they get it at the 40.

And if he kicks it high enough and the wind really "does its thing" it might go for negative yards...or something insanely short like 10-20.

Wow, looks like McKittrick may have played his last game as a Bill.  Even Muffquez inactive.

 

That "last game as a Bill" seems like an extrapolation.  McDermott and Farwell both praised both of them this week.

 

But clearly we want the "hands team" with the best judgement on tracking the ball out there on punts and kickoffs, we think speed is not of much use, and we want to have 4 RBs and 9 DL.

Would be more accurate at the end if Josh fired a snowball into Jones' chest and sent him flying 10 ft backwards onto his butt

I just saw a pats punter hit about a 10 yard punt into the wind. I think both teams will be going for it a lot on fourth down tonight

Have to deliberately hit them low like line drives in this wind, if they are out there punting at all!

I stand corrected about Star, thankfully.

Jeesh, I sit down, sign on and choose a random page to find your comment about missing Star tonight. 
 

I then scrambled back 3 or 4 pages to find out why he’s missing only to scroll ahead a page to find out he’s active.   Ya gotta check the addendum oldster, all the important *&$# goes in the addendum!
