Big Turk Posted November 3, 2023 Share Posted November 3, 2023 (edited) 16 minutes ago, Caesar said: We began taking the ball midway last season because our offense was sucking so bad to start the season, it seemed to help. Not sure of the analytics, probably just a mental thing for us last year. When asked why so many coaches are choosing to defer, the Houston Texans’ special teams coach Brad Seely explained that it “comes down to the chance to pair a score at the end of the first half with one at the start of the second. It’s the only opportunity a team has for two straight possessions and can be a chance to instantly put the game out of reach.” Seely explained that every coach would love to see their team get the ball at the start of the second half after a two-minute drive at the end of the first half. It’s a perfect game-winning scenario. Analytics showed that teams who defer average scoring 1 extra point per game and they have a 12% chance to gain an extra possession. It's only been around since 2008 when the NFL finally adopted it from high school and college. Before that, whoever won the toss got the ball first. Interestingly enough, if you win the toss and you want to kickoff you have to defer because the team that doesn't choose in the first half gets to choose in the second half. Remember watching a game back in the day, maybe right after they changed the rules to allowed deferrals, where the team chose to kickoff by mistake and the coach was going crazy on the sidelines because that meant the other team had the choice in the 2nd half, which it obviously chose to get the ball, meaning they received both the 1st and 2nd half kickoffs. Kinda seems dumb that you can't just choose to kickoff first and have to force the other team to choose to receive the ball.

As long as it makes you happy, fell free to keep up the cheerleading and the trash talk kid, Speaking of trash talk. I wonder how the heck an adult, collage educated in fact does not know how to read and truly comprehend what is being said. How can Boyd and Chase not know how to break down simple sentences? The one Isaiah McKenzie made about how the Bills didn't plan well for the weather and the Bills game plan was not conducive to the conditions. They want to use that as Bulletin board material and then use it to tough talk. "We're here come beat us" lol. These dudes don't even know McKenzie isn't even on the team anymore. For real. Wonder if Carson Palmer has ever said anything about the Bills. Let's use it to go along with our "nobody respects us" narrative. it's silly. obviously this has nothing to do with you, so just know that I'm simply talking to you since your a fan.

The fragility here about the Bengals being asked about McKenzie's comment is quite sad. It is like those of you whining about that never played ball in your life. The Benglas do not care about any snow comments. These are ball players answering questions from dumb beat reporters looking for a sound bite. How do you NOT know this? Fans overhype the bulletin board material because they are amateurs. Now the playoff situation last year? Sure that probably angered some of the players, the Bills had nothing to do with that, they were just the next game. Every team has dumb players that say dumb things and many times just say whatever and every team has fragile amateur fans that take stupid statements way too seriously. Professional NFL teams should not, and do not, require artificial stupid motivation to win a game. But the bulletin board stupidity makes for message board content for the less uninformed people.

That happens, trust me we had to deal with Eli Apple. Except that did not happen. The Bengals or the fans do not have any ill will towards Buffalo. You guys also used to like us as well until we got Burrow.... I've enjoyed reading your contributions on a Bills fan board, but have to question the bolded. You may have forgotten, but before Hamlin collapsed on the field, Hendrickson very obviously rolled up on Allen, and Hurst pile drove Dane Jackson's head & neck into the turf. There's no place in the game for that crap and those type of things are not forgotten. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's no place in the game for that crap and those type of things are not forgotten. I was there. I've watched it 100 times. Try watching it in real time, a massive man pushed a 280 pound man to the ground and he rolled one time. We do not have dirty players. Ravens and Steelers own that in our division. I get that it is your QB but this has been analyzed, I would suggest watching it in real time. I do remember the Hurst block somewhat but not definitively. Hurst was super aggressive on every single play, I stand by the statement that our guys do not want to intentionally hurt another player, but Hurst would push the edge the closest by far. 17 minutes ago, Franco_92 said: Lol I forgot about that loser poster from Cinci. Go home you clown And yes your players are dirty and stupid We have ignorant posters like this on our board as well. And we shut our own stupid posters down immediately if the opposing fan is simply talking ball and being respectful. We like talking ball with others so that we are more informed about the other team. Our stupid fans that act like this only embarrass themselves and us when they make these types of comments, thus they are appropriately checked.

We'll agree to disagree on Hendrickson, from my view he extended/continued his barrel roll unnecessarily then finished it with a leg kick/whip into Allen's knee. That may or may not have been intentional, who knows. I've watched the replay in slomo and real time countless times. I'd encourage you to watch the Hurst hit on Jackson. I'm not suggesting the Bengals have dirty players - these 2 examples may have been isolated events. At least you guys don't have the idiot/criminal Apple anymore, he's now stuck in our division with Miami.

He was so awful his first few weeks but then became a very productive player. We paid him $1M to be CB4. CB1 went down and he played CB2 all the way to the SB. We paid him $3M to be CB2 for awhile until rookie was ready and then benched, CB1 went down and he played CB2 for 10 straight wins and AFCCG. Like/Hate relationship with this guy. 1 minute ago, Big Turk said: Boo!! I am not a Skyline fan...lived in Cincy for a little over a year back in the late 90s...was Team Gold Star...
