Randall Flagg Posted September 16, 2018 Report Posted September 16, 2018 The Browns are a football team this year. Quote
JJFIVEOH Posted September 16, 2018 Report Posted September 16, 2018 This may have been the first time I have left a bar/restaurant before halftime for any Bills game because I know there is no hope. This city's teams are a disgrace. What a joke the Bills are. Glad I've finally smartened up to not waste my time spending money going out to watch this garbage. Quote
Randall Flagg Posted September 16, 2018 Report Posted September 16, 2018 Why did nobody, Tyrod included, let any media presence in Buffalo know how to pronounce Tyrod's first name while he was here? Quote

Which automatically makes the ball out of bounds. Sad face. I don't get the logic behind that. I think if the ball comes loose in-bounds it shouldn't matter where you are physically. Quote

Score what should be the go-ahead TD...and miss the extra point, letting Brees go down and win it with a FG. Hilarious. But yea, once they fire Jackson after the season and start Mayfield, I think they might actually be good. Quote
Randall Flagg Posted September 16, 2018 Report Posted September 16, 2018 I would say Allen accuracy alarmists were given plenty of reason to be afraid in that one. I think my biggest takeaway for him is needing to learn how to read a defense before the snap, which is something I post ad nauseum about because he absolutely CAN do this from the bench, which is where I want him to be. He looked like a typical rookie on a bad team. I'll be tuning in to watch him again next week. Hope he can learn and grow. Hopefully now that the defense has woken up we lose games normally instead of by 500 points. Quote

Their kicker finished with 2 missed field goals and 2 missed extra points. Quote

Unless a player can alter space and time to stop themselves when they're 12 inches away when the QB throws the ball. But... partial justice was served because the Vikings viked it. As they are wont to do. Packer lucky to escape with the tie, but had the game won on the INT except for the phantom roughing the passer. Anyhoo -- 1-0-1 and the North remains open for fun. Entertainment! Quote

You should relax and join the fun of armchair coaching in the football thread on a board that has nothing to do with football, eh? Quote
Randall Flagg Posted September 16, 2018 Report Posted September 16, 2018 If you'd like me to properly qualify the statement, being extra careful, With questions about their rookie kicker being spooked and not being in the right headspace, as the time wound down and the drive was going so well, I am a little curious if they are wishing that they would have pushed the pace a little more and taken a real shot at a TD with the offense that has not had such concerns. There, I fixed a passing talking point to being something maybe technically allowable Quote

It's the Vikings. Look at their history. We are who we thought they were! Quote
Randall Flagg Posted September 16, 2018 Report Posted September 16, 2018 We've only seen Ivory a few times, but since he already has more yards one one play than Tolbert has in his whole life, my fears that that was another Tolbert signing look to be unwarranted. Also, I realize my hypocrisy saying that after going after inkie earlier, but that can be explained as follows: I'm a Bills homer Quote
The Dominator Posted September 16, 2018 Report Posted September 16, 2018 Overall, the best way I know how to sum up this game is that I broke out the liquor bottle before 2:00... Quote
JJFIVEOH Posted September 16, 2018 Report Posted September 16, 2018 OK, the Bills got rid of Fitzpatrick because........... Quote
Weave Posted September 16, 2018 Report Posted September 16, 2018 Vontae Davis quit and retired at halftime? Did that happen? Quote

Randall Flagg Posted September 16, 2018 Report Posted September 16, 2018 McD also took over defensive playcalling from Frasier in the 2nd half, apparently. Quote
Randall Flagg Posted September 16, 2018 Report Posted September 16, 2018 Until the clock winds out, I always assume NE is winning whatever game they play, but I'm still enjoying this game. Quote

Only thing it's missing is a season ending Brady injury. Preferably to his throwing shoulder. Quote
