To take this thread on a tangent. 

 

What happened on the scrum following opening kickoff ?

 

I didn't see anything done by the Bills that even resembled a penalty. I saw #47 on the Giants with what looked like a punch to Brown's facemask, and then hold the facemask for a good 5 seconds. A ref also comes over to yell at Spencer Brown before the calls were announced. 

 

 

 

That was the worst officiating crew the Bills have seen this year....they should be relegated to officiating games like Bears vs. Vikings......keep them away from the Bills.

why was Josh Allen being an absolute dumbass and throwing his throwing shoulder into that mess?

Toxic Masculinity.  He should probably be forced to take some sort of sensitivty training after that public display of aggression.

That officiating crew was one of the reasons the Bills walked out of there with a win last night.

On the last play.  But the Bills could have a 14 point lead at that point, if the officials were competent .

Is it too much to ask to have the QB and leader of the team not be an idiot? If he hurts himself on that play or gets beaten down by a lineman twice his size nobody has clever comments today.

You seem like you would enjoy rooting for Mac Jones.  Checks all your boxes.

If the officials were competent, the Bills would have been called for about twice as many penalties as they were.

The OLine was mugging people all over the place in both pass pro and especially the ground game.

I didn’t think anyone deserved to be ejected.

 

I’m not a fan of the how all penalties are negated if each team commits one penalty.  
 

All 11 giants on the field could’ve run up on Josh and continued to push him down over and over and over…..but if 1 Bills was guilty of an illegal shift they all cancel themselves out.  Replay the down.  Doesn’t make sense

Can anyone explain this??

 

When seeing the replay, it was clear that these three idiots committed unprovoked acts of aggression on Dawkins and Brown.

 

Thibideaux was seen kicking Dawkins in the head and neck area, and Lawrence and Williams threw themselves like missles and knocked Brown to the ground.

 

I'm sure their wallets will be lighter later in the week, but at least one, if not all three of these clowns should have been ejected from the game!!

 

Thoughts??

They play for the Giants. 

 

Isn't that enough punishment?

 

🤣

Three Giants Fined for Roles in Brawl vs. Bills

Things got ugly for the Giants late in the third quarter of their game versus the Buffalo Bills last weekend.

PATRICIA TRAINA

 

New York Giants defenders Kayvon Thibodeaux, Dexter Lawrence, and Leonard Williams were each fined $10,927 by the league for their role in a second-half scuffle with the Buffalo Bills. Bills offensive lineman Dion Dawkins received a $10,927 fine.

Thibodeaux, Lawrence, Williams, and Dawkins were part of a larger brawl that began after Latavius Murray rushed for a first down late in the third quarter of the Giants' 14-9 loss to the Bills last weekend at Highmark Stadium.

The officials threw four flags, three on the Giants and one on Buffalo, the penalties off-setting one another. There were no ejections as a result of the melee.

Thibodeaux was caught on camera lying on the turf kicking at some Bills players who were hitting him while he was on his back. Williams shoved an unidentified Bills offensive lineman in the end zone. 

 

 

Great reporting.....unidentified offensive lineman🤣

I’ll keep echoing - 

 

dawkins/thibodeaux being my offsetting and swept under the rug wouldn’t bug me. Both sides chippy and no one at risk of real injury…. so get it on record in case of continued issues and move on

 

away from the play and after the play clobbering a guy and resulting in injury should be an ejection. The precedent it sets and behavior encouraged by lumping it all together is dangerous. That it wasn’t enven an escalated fine really does surprise me too.

Yeah, $11K to these players is like $11 to us.  That’s supposed to be a punishment?

Unfortunately, the only action will be taken this week, and it will be pointless fines that these particular well-paid players won't even notice. Maybe if the kicking in the head thing is obvious there might be some potential for a suspension...but I didn't even catch that from my vantage (which is actually pretty perfect to see that all unfold, down near that goal line on the Bills side). You miss a lot of details in person. You see some things with amazing clarity, but you just can't take it all in on every play. And you definitely don't get any info from the PA system or replays. 

If the Bills PA system were to be "unplugged", I don't think anyone would notice.
