That might have been the most exciting Bills game I've ever watched that we actually won.

 

AWESOME!!!

So I watched video of the celebration and Walker didn’t partake too much in celebrating with the team after it. I think he knew he screwed up and got lucky 

 

Saw the same. I agree.

You missed out man!

 

we were sat in 336, shame on those fans who left the game. There was quite a few.

It’s got to be painful for those who were at the game, left early, and then miss out on that comeback win. I wonder how many who left will admit they left.

It’s gonna be hotly debated im sure but I think not challenging the spot on that slide saved the game. Clearly wasn’t a great call but I really don’t think they would’ve overturned the call on the field.  It would’ve gotten bogged down in the whole ‘how do you define the start of a slide’ type stuff and I think they would’ve just left the call unchanged 

 

we also did something probably even more difficult than 13 seconds against them before halftime because of good timeout management/preparation  but it’s getting lost in all the craziness haha 

 

Heres the thing, and I looked this up because the ex ref on the show said this... It's not as soon as the slide begins. It's when they start a slide to declare down and anything besides hands or feet first touch the ground. I believe it was Josh's knee that first touched the ground and the ball was obviously past the mark by then. Plenty of video to see that.

 

Rule from the actual book copy/paste...

sliding or diving. When a runner slides or dives feet or head first or simulates sliding or diving, the ball is dead the instant he touches the ground with anything other than his hands or his feet, or begins to simulate touching the ground;

I've been watching this team since the 1960s. I have never seen anything like that. 

You must not have been watching on September 10, 1967, also week 1, when this happened:

Just about the entire bills fan population was there for the comeback game during our SB years if that is any indication.

 

 

From this camera angle, you can definitely see Coleman was shoved out. The 2 pointer should have counted.

 

 

@Einstein asked earlier what does he have to do to re-establish himself.  Not sure if you know the answer or not, but it's simply getting 2 feet back in bounds.

 

Although, I am hearing from others that you can't re-establish at all if you are forced out the back of the endzone. The rulebook says "legally" forced out. Whats legally? Is it not illegal contact anyway you look at this?

Just watching the highlights, number 42 for Buffalo is useless, he was easily taken out on most of Henry's big runs. That defense is in trouble!

Maybe, but we don't play many teams like the Ravens this season. I'm not going to take any stock into a week 1 football game against arguably our worst matchup in the league.

[Bad Things]

Holy cow.  I just finished watching the game.

 

One of the strangest wins I've ever seen.

The perfect type of game to be our foundation for s championship season.

 

Let's go Buffalo!

If we had known any of this from our vantage in the stands, I think some people would have heart attacks. Legitimately. It was bonkers enough as is. 

I have never been in a stadium that loud at about 30% capacity!  I walked to the concourse and back down 3 times. What a bananas ending.

I filmed the fg as proof I didn't leave lol!

"“Our team didn’t quit,” Allen said, his voice almost hoarse after rallying the Bills from a 15-point deficit in the final four minutes to a thrilling season-opening 41-40 win over the Baltimore Ravens. “I think there’s people who left the stadium. That’s OK. We’ll be fine. But have some faith next time.”"
