Allen could easily have scored 7 on the winning drive. A FG wouldn't have mattered and Harbaugh knew it just like everybody else watching. 1
triumph_communes Posted October 2, 2022 Report Posted October 2, 2022 Big game for our still fairly injured defense. We got problems with our receivers. They aren’t getting open and injuries left and right. Can a draft pick bust more than Cook? Yeesh

Or are you referring to what the national pundits will be saying about the Bills?
inkman Posted October 2, 2022 Report Posted October 2, 2022 Seeing the Bills understand clock management for the first time since I can remember feels like when that edible finally kicks is with that warm rush over your body. Gimme more. 2 1

You don't win championships being proud of a game like that. They can be proud of the fact they beat a top 4 team in the AFC, on the road, when trailing by 17 in the first half. Ugly, and undeserved, but a comeback victory nonetheless. That is something you can build on. The Bills were on the receiving end of two huge calls by the officials to help them secure a victory. A phantom Roughing the passer penalty in the 4th and a no-call on PI to end first half. Amazing how these type calls go to good teams. They are appropriately 3-1. 2

drnkirishone Posted October 2, 2022 Report Posted October 2, 2022 One of the worse officiated bills games in some time. Missed calls all around 1 1

And the Ravens had a few calls go their way too. That'll happen when Jerome Bulger's crew is on point. But disagree about the Roughing the QB call - it was the right call. The guy basically stopped as Allen was throwing the ball, then decided to continue & tackle him. He knew the ball was gone and could easily have pulled up as he'd already started to do so. 2
Marvin Posted October 2, 2022 Report Posted October 2, 2022 I have two criteria for good teams. 1. Good teams can win even if they don't play well. 2. Good teams beat other good teams on the road. This win was ugly and not something to brag about. But winning games like this is what good teams do. 2 1
That Aud Smell Posted October 2, 2022 Report Posted October 2, 2022 This Bills team has guts. Go Bills. 1
drnkirishone Posted October 2, 2022 Report Posted October 2, 2022 So maybe we get some CB help Monday. Marcus Peters had a slight disagreement with his coach about that end zone int

But I will say that in every game so far, the moment appears too big for him. Perhaps he just needs to calm down a bit and let the game come to him more.

MattPie Posted October 3, 2022 Report Posted October 3, 2022 5 hours ago, Taro T said: Not getting heated over it. You keep saying he was tested every day. Other than the league's CMO, who was not at their facility, have not seen anybody else involved say that. 2 questions, which though one has been asked repeatedly, they never get answered, and no, you did not answer it in you're reply 1. why when they say he did not suffer a head injury in the game (& therefore suffered no concussion), did not list any head injury as an issue during the week (though they did list a back injury and an ankle injury), and stated repeatedly that he was not in the concussion protocol would they have been testing him daily to prove he didn't suffer an injury that they say he didn't sustain? That makes no sense, unless he really did have a concussion. And 2. Who besides the league's CMO said he was tested daily? They said he wasn't in the concussion protocol so there would've been no reason to test him. (Again, presuming they aren't lying about no head injury, however ....) To be honest, if I were in the Dolphins' place last week I'd be checking on Tua every day even if it wasn't listed as a head injury or concussion. Just like when I got sick recently I tested for COVID even though it was negative every time. The only question here is if there's something wrong with the test, Tua has a cheat code, or the Dolphins truly just ignored what they saw.
Norcal Posted October 3, 2022 Report Posted October 3, 2022 I'll take that win. The D got it together and played really well from midway through the second quarter. Joshy did what he had to do and just enough of it to get the win. The whole team looked a little sluggish early but I like the way they bounced back. Shout out to the rookie, Khalil Shakir, for some timely plays. 1

It's clear what they should've been doing. This is about what they were doing & what they were saying. If they're concerned about his head, they need to be reporting it. The league requires teams to report ALL injuries that might affect playing status. They didn't. They actually went to great lengths to say he didn't have a head injury. Pretty much every day they were saying he did not have a head injury and that there were no concussion protocols for him to be in because he didn't have a head injury. They said he had a back injury & an ankle injury. Fair enough, you tested for covid when you had some flu-like symptoms. That makes sense. Do you also routinely test for covid when you feel well and don't believe you've been exposed to covid? That wouldn't make sense. But is what people that are claiming the Fish were testing him daily were doing. That they didn't suspect a head injury, but tested him for one anyhow. The Fish were ADAMANT that he did not suffer a head injury against the Bills. Per them, he had a back injury and an ankle injury. Is it common for them to test people with ankle injuries for a concussion? If they were concerned about a head injury but told the world there was no head injury, well then they were lying about the lack of a head injury. And, lying about the head injury was ridiculously reckless and was a major contributor to his 2nd concussion.
calti Posted October 3, 2022 Report Posted October 3, 2022 PCR test is worthless in detecting specific live viruses. Like the inventor of the test,kary Mullis,said "you can find anything you want on a PCR test if you look hard enough" 1
