The fixating games and calling the patriots cheaters and so on needs to stop. It’s a losers mentality to blame loses on something other than their own selves. I’ve played many sports and have seen it many times, and man, its a bad look 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you guys tell me why the nfl would really want Brady to keep winning? Wouldn’t letting other franchises win be of a more financial benefit? Everyones tired of seeing him win. Just curious on your thoughts, lmk! More people will tune in to hopefully see a hated rival lose than to watch all the time if everyone is getting equal wins. Bears fans will 100% turn on a GB game just to see Aaron Rodgers lose. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JROC INTEL Posted December 13, 2021 Share Posted December 13, 2021 It’s just a flaw of the sport of football. There are literally like a billion rules, even refs are confused half the time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s not that hard to understand, but damn their are a lot of 🤡’s here who don’t get it. There's just alot of incredibly naive fans that feel everything is legit, ethical etc. No one ever steals, cheats or steers games. This has been going on for years and will continue long after I'm dead. The only thing that matters for the NFL and their easily controlled ref minions is to move forward with the narrative of their dream SB. Maybe someday when JA's storyline becomes more important will the Bills get a handful of calls. Calls that make the difference in winning or losing like tonight. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s fine… because you know… they’re the ones who are supposed to decide the outcome in a game. Not the impartial 3rd party facilitating the game…. https://www.syracuse.com/buffalo-bills/2021/12/vet-ref-calls-foul-on-stefon-diggs-no-call-late-in-bills-and-buccaneers-game.html 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or are we talking garnishing wages for every missed call? I’d actually argue the opposite of firing them - I’d prefer to see them made full-time NFL employees rather than part-timers making around $200K. Full-time means more time for training and opportunity to increase accountability. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hapless Bills Fan Posted December 13, 2021 Author Share Posted December 13, 2021 Just now, Gene1973 said: Ok, so did the ref see the shirt pull and decide he hates the Bills and didn't make the call, or did he miss it? How do we find this out? I think you’re talking just to hear your own voice here. If you want to have a conversation, try saying something reasonable. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if every single play has to be reviewed, the NFL product is garbage to watch. Simple solution is sky judge to quickly correct the obvious PI calls not called like that one.

This is reminiscent of MCM game in a way where you hope for something, anything, to go your way after doing nothing offensively for large stretches of the game. Or maybe it was reminiscent of the 1998 game in Foxborough, the game where the Bills walked off the field in disgust only to return to let the Pats kick a FG to finish the game. As some claim, I am not an apologist when it comes to officiating, but you have to factor the crappiness of NFL officiating into your game plan. If the NFL wanted to fix officiating, or to go to a more tennis-like approach of automating its officiating, it would've years ago. The Bills have to do better. If you pray for a miracle, you might get one. Then again, you might not. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed - take a look and reverse/call the obvious mistakes - the ones that millions of people sitting on their couch can see are obvious. Even if you err on conservative in overruling, just even correcting a percentage of the wrong calls/no-calls is better than none. At least you likely correct the majority of the most egregious Edited December 13, 2021 by stevewin 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zow2 Posted December 13, 2021 Share Posted December 13, 2021 This game ending was so frustrating for a bunch of different reasons. But not completing the comeback was just a vicious gut punch. Is there any doubt that if Buffalo had the 24-3 lead gave it up that Tampa would ultimately win the game? No, of course not. But somehow this years Bills team can’t make that one extra play and get over the hump in these close games. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

astb41 Posted December 13, 2021 Share Posted December 13, 2021 We went toe to toe with the champs in their building and should’ve won. I’m fully confident this team can and will win the Super Bowl this year. All that toughness everyone wanted to see? Excited for the coming 4 game win streak. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
