But he led with his shoulder and was probably trying to knock the ball out. The receiver was ducking down and got hit in the head. Hamlin isn't a dirty player. He wasn't trying to hurt anyone. And honestly, I'm surprised he was ejected. 1st I didn’t think he was trying to hurt Meyers. I thought he was just trying lay down a hit stick type hit. (Like you said to dislodge the ball). Meyers was trying to secure the catch with both hands.. I think the hit aggravated the shoulder injury that Meyers was playing through that he got last week.

RocCityRoller Posted December 2, 2022 Share Posted December 2, 2022 Fair assessment IMO. Was really surprised BB went for the FG late instead of going for the TD drive, that should have been an analytics call IMO. More shocked BB didn't call TO with 2:00 to go and 3 TO. I lived in MA for 2 years, pre-Josh Allen. I was there when Buffalo hired Rex Ryan. Hilarity ensued on all parties behalf. We all got drunk and laughed. TBH most of the folks I met there were good people. For basketball and hockey those folks knew their stuff. Football didn't happen Pre-Brady. Certainly there were Massholes. The roads are a mess. Traffic was winner take all. Going out on the green line or orange line on the T was always an adventure. Any Thursday/ Friday/ Saturday/ Sunday night out was crazy. Guys would fight in front of bars off of those stops because 'it was the weekend' and there was nothing better to do. Good old fashioned donneybrooks, the way God intended. NH was very cool. If I had to live in New England it would be New Hampshire or down east Maine. Had a load of good hearted fun in Keene. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The hatred for the Jets is a personal thing for me. I have hated them since I was a kid. Let’s just say their fans in the 80’s and 90’s were the biggest butt heads I had to deal with in the old Sullivan Stadium. i have never seen such arrogant fans in my life whose team stunk! I want their misery to last forever. I never have had an issue with Bills fans. You guys were always awesome even when we truly SUCKED! You were fun to tailgate with and even when you were at your peak you were not jerks and for myself I enjoyed the Bills v Pats game even when we get destroyed. dolphins Fans were ok as well. Although the way they talked about Marino I expected him to turn water into wine and walk on water lol. They were arrogant bandwagon Pats fans of their day without being anywhere near as good.

I hate how people make it sound like Meyers did it because of the coming hit. He didn’t he did it to secure the ball.. the Penalty was correct, I don’t know the rule well enough on the ejection part. I don’t think it warranted that as I said I don’t think he was trying to hurt Meyers. IMO if that’s ever the case the NFL should make it a completed catch.. so as to not reward the dirty play.

But also surprised by the ejection as it didn’t look like he was trying to wreck the guy. Just a bang bang play and the WR was a quick moving target.

Honestly, I didn't think this was even a great game by our defense. They simply weren't challenged at all by the Pats offense. If Greg Cossell says the Bills offense lacks elite players or whatever, good God what does he think of the Patriots offense? For the Bills offense, it was nice that we found our running game but it still seems like the only thing that can stop the Bills offense is the Bills. Allen had the fumble and Diggs had an uncharacteristic drop on 3rd down And this is an offense that put up almost 500 yards on the Vikings the week before 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smuvtalker Posted December 2, 2022 Share Posted December 2, 2022 Here's my thing.....first of all, this was a potential TD catch. The Bills are trying to keep the Patriots out of the end zone, and IMO Hamlin was simply trying to prevent that the best(and probably only) way he knew how. He DIDN'T lead with his helmet. Yes, his shoulder did make contact with the receivers head, but he also ducked into the hit. This is a guy going full speed. To ask him to slow it down is just pure ludicrous. Also, Hamlin has never been labeled a dirty player. Yes, he is a physical player, but that's one of his best attributes. It's plays like that that are watering down the authenticity of the game if you ask me. Personally, I don't think the hit warranted a flag, BUT, I can see why it was thrown. However, disqualifying him was flat out WRONG. Again, I go back to the point that this was a potential touchdown catch, FFS you're supposed to separate the receiver from the football. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pocoboy Posted December 2, 2022 Share Posted December 2, 2022 10 hours ago, PatsFanNH said: First a good win by Buffalo. So here are my observations: 3. Bills secondary was flying around tonight and just didn’t give the receivers much room work at all. 5. that personal foul at the end of the game seemed kind of silly to do. I know it’s football, but the game is over no need try lay the stick down on someone. 5. Both O lines looked bad and a TON of holding calls just ignored on both sides. God what a difference a mobile QB makes. Good luck guys and please don’t lose the division to anyone else especially not the dang JETS! 3) So I've been down on Edmunds many times, but when he does his job vs. the run like last night, it frees up that whole backfield. White & Poyer are key. But frankly, it seems like NE abandoned the run which might have done in the Bills late in the game if they had stuck to their guns. 5a) When a receiver dives, it's really tough on defenders. The call made sense, the hit was just a typical bang-bang on a guy who's diving, judging those angles can be tricky. 5b) The sooner one realizes that the league tells officials when to find things to call, the sooner you understand that there's a reason they wanted to get those big sponsorship bucks from the gambling huts.

For Dolphins I can totally see that and also experienced the Marino talk!

Who is the free agent or trade target for the off-season? Or do they plan on drafting the next Moss, Jefferson or Chase? I agree that in today's NFL you have to give a QB that one elite pass catching threat. That’s the million dollar question. They have some great #2’s and 3 receivers (Parker, Meyers) I don’t know enough about College know who a good top WR would be. As for FA depends on who is truly available. 1 minute ago, Sammy Watkins' Rib said: Add A weight problem Lmao that was last year. He got rather ripped in the off season.. he was primed make a decent jump with any semblance of a cohesive O plan in place. (Just because he is primed doesn’t mean he would but he had everything set up that way.) then they trade their top Guard, Wynn goes backward (which I didn’t think possible) and Savage is just that on the O line, add in Brown looks old now and we’ll it’s a death trap behind that line.

I think he did ok, IMO the play calling was beyond awful! Way way too many screens. This year is toast for my Pats I am hoping for Bill O’Brian for next year. Are you hoping the Pats are bad for the next 10 years? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
