Question: How bad would it have to be for local public health and government leaders to step in and say, “No game” in these conditions, because of the threat to peoples' health and welfare? Has that ever happened? I know the NFL rules the world, but at some point a greater concern would have to supersede them. A few years ago I was at a major college XC meet with several races. It was unseasonably warm. In the early races several athletes were having issues with the heat. Athletes were passing out all over the place. There were so many ambulances called in, it looked like a parade. About half way through, the meet was shut down because the local hospitals and emergency system was overwhelmed. In this case, if holding this event potentially puts too many people in danger, and potentially over-taxes the emergency care system, would or could they, say “no” and force the NFL to reschedule it?

A few observatons: There is only one catagory where the Pats are better than the Bills (Penalties) The Bills are actually a better running team than the Pats .... will never hear that from the talking-heads Many categories are close, but the two biggest disparities are Average Yards Per Game and Opp. Average Rushing Yards Per Game - Those are also two of the most important categoiries - Again, about the Talking-Heads, should not the question be: "Can the Pats slow down the BIlls rushing attack?" The differences are not huge in any area, but the total is clearly to the Bills advantage.

Only the old guys will get that one, House.

The Bills have been using an extra lineman on unique occasions all year. Mainly, Bates. Doyle has inherited the role with Bates’ move to full-time employment. I do think they have gone to it more in the last quarter of the season.

That’s some serious trolling

I think you’re correct. There was one big one yesterday in the 3rd quarter. But it feels like it has gotten better these last few games.

The answer to the question in this thread title was given the day the Pro-Bowl players were announce with four games (apprx. 23.5%) still left in the season. The entire thing is broken. YES! Everypne knows that.

A new season begins today, everyone is now undefeated. A fresh start, a new beginning.

The most frustrating thing about this is Pittsburg has no chance in KC. oh well, on to NE

Yeah, Wow! An incredible game.

This game has not lacked for drama

Go for it Chargers! That would be the perfect ending to this crazy NFL season.

Yeah, that was bizarre. How will that call be justified or explained away by the league office? If anything, it was a Defensive Holding call.

I am convinced it cost them this game.

Wow, they go for it at the 18. I know he has done this a lot, but that is mystifying. You’re down by 3, and at best you just gave them 3. And what is the reward, 1st and 10 and you still have 80 yards to go????

Just announced, Saturday night.

Congratulations, All! Winning 11 games and another Division title is no small accomplishment. GO BILLS!

And all he does is let it hit and scoops it and goes. That too is a disaster waiting to happen. Ugh!

This game is feeling more and more like the Jacksonville game.

18 weeks into the season and we still do not have a reliable kick returner. That is not good.

Can’t be any worse

Can Bass punt? Get his leg loose.

And now potentially more. What is wrong with him?

Bad play by Poyer.

Ahhhh! This what happens when you have a chance to burry a team and don’t.
