Well then stop reading and posting in it if its so terrible. When normal people read something they think is terrible, they stop reading and move on. You have to be a special kind of strange to spend your Christmas morning posting in a thread on a message board that you think is terrible.
Merry Christmas!
Yet here you are responding on Christmas morning defending your terrible thread and you obviously need help undersatnding football.
Curling is still an option.

Well technically they got the tuck rule call right by the rule on the books at the time. I suppose you agreed with that as well.
Thanks for stopping by Mr. Goodell
Terrible thread nonetheless. Become a fan of Curling.

Jeff Skinner is blowing up with the Buffalo Sabres. He is doing what everyone who has followed his career knew he could do, scoring a lot. The Carolina Hurricanes didn’t want to keep this stellar sniper on the roster so they traded him to the Sabres for Cliff Pu and a few picks.

The All-22 Coaches Film via GamePass is now available for week 16 vs. the Patriots is up. It'll be interesting to see what happened in the run game to allow the Bills to get gashed so many times and also to take a closer look at how Josh Allen was defensed.

I would never predict that because they can't fix the offense in one offseason. Next year I'd go with 7-9.
7-9 won't cut it in 2019 with it being year three of the McDermott-Beane regime.

That was in response to a post pointing out how awful Allen's supporting cast is and has everything to do with his play. Name a QB that could look good in this offense with players dropping TDs, no blocking, crap TEs - not even Brees would look like an NFL QB with these losers. Allen is not the problem right now.
Irrespective of his poor supporting cast it does not have everything to do with his play. He has opportunities to make plays in every game and he does sometimes which begins with good decision making followed by use of his talent. There are other times when he does not as expected with playing a rookie QB. It's all part of his learning experience.
We don't have to pretend he plays perfectly and would be doing great were it not for the players around him. He went to Belichick school yesterday and he'll be better for the experience in the long run.

More Insight with less incite
Just saying the kid played just as good if not better than TB.
At this point not even Shady.
That is insight that you're trying to change the subject to another player that has nothing to do with how Allen played in the game. Nice try though.

Since when is suggesting that a rule could be tweaked “whining?” We’re all those fans who were frustrated with the catch rule a year ago by definition whiners? Now that that rule has been changed, is no further debate allowed because the almighty NFL Rules Committee hath spoken? We’re not saying anything here other than the current “down by contact” rule seems to have unintended consequences in a few limited situations, and that the game might be better if it were tweaked. Unless of course you find players standing around while an Edelman gets up and jogs into the end zone a thrilling play.
It's a heads up play by Edelman who realized he wasn't down and the whistle wasn't blown. I wish Bills' players had that kind of situational awareness. The rule is fine as is.

Well it won't be the Goat either.
Didn't see many highlight reels on his game play.
What does any other player have to do with this subject that discusses Allen?

And there we go. The old “make the QB wear a dress” comment. Kind of the Godwin’s Rule of all football chat.
But consider this - we’ve seen it before. The Edelman ball carrier (sometimes a QB on a sneak) is “stopped” just before the goal line. But he lands on a pile of lineman, so the whistle doesn’t blow. He then extends the ball over the mythical plane. “Touchdown!” signaled. Is that a manly result?
You want fundamental rules of football changed for what? No good reason. You're throwing in buzz phrases for effect. Not very good effect, but nice try.
Play to the whistle and know the rules. Pretty simple without all of the machinations and whining.

We also see plays in which the runner in the Edelman “posture” has an alert defender strip the ball from him, and the defense recovers. I don’t like that either. What’s the Edelman supposed to do? Yell out a safe word? I think the game would be better (and safer) if the whistle blew in these situations.
Like it or not the play's over until you actually get tackled to the ground, have forward progress stopped, or go out of bounds. Why not just make it touch or flag football?

Allen will be nominated for AFC player of the week I'm sure.

In defense of the OP - I don’t think anyone doesn’t understand the rule. It’s more “why is this the rule?” And it’s a good question. Should another Bills player have jumped on top of Edelman with sufficient force to dislodge part of his body that was being supported by a teammate? Wouldn’t that be a penalty? Isn’t that a player safety issue? The fact that a player - otherwise down by contact - lands on another player doesn’t seem a good or smart reason for not having the whistle blow by rule. In other words, it’s the rule, but it also strikes me as a bad rule regardless of which team it helps or hurts.
That's just it. Edeleman was not down by contact since no part of his body touched the ground and his forward progress certainly wasn't stopped. No down by contact and no whistle means the play isn't over. Another rule that's perfectly fine just the way it is.

They can't. We only have $7.06 mil in cap space left after cutting Benjamin. Clay's dead cap is $13.5 million. Emotions aside, the better biz decision was to cut Clay this year and let KB walk in FA.
So are Clay's, and he is on our books next year. KB isn't.
Top WR's signing for $15 mil per season. Top DL signing for $15-20 mil. Top OL signing for $10-15 mil.
$90 mil will go pretty quick.
No it will not. They'll have money that'll carry over to the following season. I don't think you get how the cap works based on your OP.

It may sound like a lot but other teams have quite a bit more cap room than us. Plus they would be more desirable cities.
I already know that and none of them will be able to spend all of what they have on the books. The point is trying to save cap dollars isn't an issue.

Cameron Wolfe ESPN Staff Writer
Ryan Tannehill will start Sunday for Dolphins, not planning to sit starters. Adam Gase cites injuries as a key role in missing playoffs, and he said he doesn't need to lobby to keep his job. He said if Stephen Ross wants to make a change, he'll let him know.
The Dolphins' home finale was embarrassing on many fronts, and the next couple of weeks could be the start of an overhaul in Miami.
