Superb leader of men, winningest Bills coach since Marv Levy, great developer of talent, yada yada...

[JimBob2232]

Man…what a game.  Serious question - does every fan base just feel like the refs only miss calls against their team - or is it just my teams (bills and Penn state).   Do chiefs and raiders feel that way too????

Not declining was a huge gaffe

Taking the penalty they'd have kicked. We would have the ball with 2+ minutes.  We will be lucky to get the ball back with 45 seconds.

You think they weren’t doing the same thing on 4th and 7? lol 

Expand  

Exactly they were going to do the same thing he knew it. Three did nothing for them.

Worst linebacker performance in decades 

Expand  

The lack of any pass rush has also been a killer. They tormented Stafford the last time they played.

McDermott pissed his leg again by taking the penalty

They were going for it on 4th either way.

This is why I can’t judge McD on regular season success…He ALWAYS chokes when the lights are brightest…

Expand  

Are the lights brightest in a meaningless NFC game in December? Hm?

[MasterStrategist]

should've been 4th and 10, false starts.

 

Can't play the refs in a close game.

[Jukester]

Should’ve brought pressure on 4th down. 4 man rush and zone 🤬

how do you miss that false start?

Expand  

He started to move but his feet were planted. Looks obvious in slo-mo but hard to call in real time.

Never should have accepted that penalty. There is a difference between 4th and 5 and 4th and 8.

Expand  

Aceepting the penalty put the Rams out of field goal range. Defense just had to make a stop 

[Steptide]

We're gonna win on a 40 yard bomb from Allen. Relax yall 😉

How can the line judge miss such an obvious call???

Expand  

I don’t think it was that obvious in real time.  Lots of others are much more obvious.  I mean it could have been called but it is obvious in slo mo

McD trusted his crappy defense instead of putting the ball in Joshes hands. THAT is unacceptable.

Yea I didn't like taking the penalty but I agree in the end it made no difference. Ended up 4th and 5 same spot.

Expand  

It would have been 4th and 7

Yep.  Gamble call.  And I didn’t like it at all.

With the way Stafford has carved us up and the way they’re running at will on us we’re lucky to be this close (Josh doing his best as usual).
