Some posters can't B word about Allen and McD after this game so they find new ways to throw shade on the Bills. The point I was trying to make, was is this good for the sport. Milli-second "late" hits, that result in a free 15 yard penalty. Its calls like this, that make people feel the game is fixed, cause the officials can award first downs for plays like this.

Also, they call that late hit on the slide 90% of the time, so idk what OP is complaining about. He hit him pretty solid. If he didn’t want to get flagged he should have stopped or leapt over the top, which defenders usually do to avoid contact. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is the point of the video, yes. Allen has a 6 year history of running over, through, and around guys. Rarely avoiding contact. Rarely ever sliding even. There was no fake slide. There will be no fake slide. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, if you read the follows on that tweet, the guy who compiled it states that's his point - those are all jukes, and Allen does them regularly on his runs. 21 minutes ago, GoBills808 said: THANK YOU @Beck Water "A Thing of Beauty is a Joy Forever" tm If we replaced Josh Allen with an RB and promoted that as a compilation of fine runs, no one would be talking about fake slides. It would be "man, he looks a little awkward but he sure can juke 'em" Edited January 17 by Beck Water 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjt328 Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 I never realized how pathetic Steelers fans were until the last couple days. The way they are complaining (literally everywhere on social media) about officiating, you would have thought this game had the MOST egregious referee errors in the history of pro football. Saints fans didn't even whine this much after the 2018 NFC Championship and Nickell Robey-Coleman. Yes folks. George Pickens getting barely touched on the back... with his team down 14 points with 4 minutes left... and still over 60 yards away from the endzone even with a flag. THAT was the worst no-call PI ever. Then you have the late quarterback hit. Clear proof the refs were paid off by Terry Pegula. I mean yeah it was late. And yeah the league calls that a penalty 95% of the time. But it wasn't REALLY late and it didn't give the QB a concussion. So the refs should have just let it go. I mean it's the playoffs, right? And also, the refs should have invented a brand-new rule during the game and penalized Josh Allen for executing a "fake" slide. Because it's just not fair on the defensive players. These Pittsburgh fans can't be serious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for the late hit on Josh, you had to know they were gonna call that when you saw it i was yelling for a penalty on jack for that as he jumped on diggs back for that.

That teams get 15 yards, not because they earned it, but because the defender hits him a millisecond late. Its stuff like this, which makes people question if the NFL is fixed. Im not upset with the bills at all. Its nice to finally get one in our favor. But it could very easily be switched the opposite way in an upcoming game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott7975 Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 21 hours ago, wagon127 said: The 4th quarter unnecessary roughness penalty on the Steeelers. Look, im glad the bills won, and any penalty the Bills get in their favor, I feel is great, after 17 years of us seeing other teams benefit from bad calls. But the NFL needs to really evaluate whats considered a late hit on a QB slide. I really dont think he was hit late on that. I think as Allen starts to slide, the defender has pretty much already left his feet. Allen is still sliding as he gets hit, showing how "not late" it was. What do you guys think? Not just thinking about it from the Bills point of view, but football in general. and you would be wrong about that 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not just thinking about it from the Bills point of view, but football in general. I do not agree. The Pitt player had plenty of time to avoid that hit. Instead, he launched himself at Allen and tried to take his head off with a forearm. I thought it was one of the cleanest examples of a late/unnecessary hit on a defenseless player that I have seen. Just because he missed the head shot does not make it less egregious. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The refs being consistent and calling it a penalty makes you question if the league is fixed ? You do you I guess FWIW the roughing the passer called on Ed Oliver later in the game was 'weaker' than this one and also an easy call.

If they call it 90% of the time, then why would it make people question if the NFL is fixed? That would only make sense if they selectively applied the rule, which they don't. If you want to look at fixing games, look at defensive holding, illegal contact, pass interference, and offensive holding. Penalties that happen almost every play, but only seem to be called when Mahomes needs some help on a failed 3rd and long. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 The above is the late hit. It's called 100% of the time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoPoy88 Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 1 hour ago, Doc said: The above is the late hit. It's called 100% of the time. Absolutely. And that defender had more opportunity than most of those flagged for this to adjust his launch angle and attempt to go over top of Allen. He wanted to deliver that hit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
