[NFL Playoff Schedule]

This provides no source, and no indication the players said this. You think that if Josh Allen was told they will reschedule the game and the playoff implications obviously known and he said "nah, I don't want to"? Doubtful.

 

What also contradicts this is we may play the Bengals in 2 weeks. So we don't want to replay them now, but in 2 weeks its fine? Makes little sense.

There was a report that the NFL didn't want the game resumed because is has "bad juju."

It’s irritating all the end zone shots when we get around the 15-20 yard line. Today, two end zone shots then on 3rd and long Allen forces a throw for a pick. 
 

Similar sequence at the end of the Vikings game ended that game with an INT.

Watch the pick. Josh was hit just as he was releasing the ball. Receiver was open in the end zone. Just an unfortunate football play.

I am going to need some major help. I am going to be at Disney with the family that day. There is no way I can watch it live.
 

I can probably avoid media all day. But any ideas on how best to watch a replay later that night? 

 

(My only thought was subscribing to NFL Gamepass, which I think lets you watch replays after the games are played. Anyone have experience with this?) 

Yes, I just watched our game again. It only takes 40 minutes for the whole game.

Seattle San Fran will be a blow out…. And Bills Dolphins has potential to be blow out as well if Tua is out. 

All the games could potentially be blowouts. Of course, there could always be a surprise Cinderella team. It would be cool if it were the Giants.

Sorry @Ice bowl 67

I was rooting for Packers.

 

Gino Smith is now a starting QB in playoffs. 

I would never have guessed this would happen except by injury.

Geno had an amazing year. I guess it should be a lesson in perseverance for all of us. Congrats to him!

[Our emerging habit of ending New England's season]

I don’t know about Belichick being the greatest coach of all-time. He absolutely is the greatest NFL football historian of all-time. A lot can be learned from history, especially when you have the GOAT as your QB. His respect for the game is enormous but his lack of any social skills have hurt his stature. Belichick had his run in the limelight but maybe it’s time to hang up the cleats.

Okay? What's so funny?

By most measurements, the Bills’ defense is top-5 in the NFL. You may not like it in your fantasy league, but it is.

 

We’re laughing at you and your band of fools who can’t seem to see the value of Leslie Fraser’s scheme. Even with a decimated secondary, loss of Von Miller and Jordan Phillips playing with only one arm, this team defense style is winning football.

There is no such thing as faceguarding in the NFL. You can argue for defensive PI, but you can’t plead faceguarding.

So, JAX has their biggest crowd in years and their franchise QB lays a huge egg. Ugh.

Surprising there are a lot on the Pats board who think they are going to win.

There are a lot of people in Boston who truly believe the universe revolves around them. Fortunately, they’re wrong about that too.

Noticed Coach McD thanked Terry Pegula and not Terry and Kim Pegula. Wonder if she’s still away from the team.

I kind of wonder about this too.

It's her. She is a retired reporter, not a doctor and IMO incredibly misguided in posting some study with conditions completely unlike what happened to Hamlin. 

Yeah but, she was really good at getting TBD shirts for the tailgate!

[Playoff Solutions Assuming they don’t replay the Bengals game.]

I believe that the NFLPA will have a big part of the decision-making in all of this. Additionally, so will the league, Union and team attorneys. With so much money now tied-up in betting, Las Vegas will also have a say. What? Are they all going to give money back? I don't think so.

 

The outcome will be surely challenged in court, unless all parties are in agreement.

I don't see that there is another option.

 

I'd guess that some way, somehow New England will get comp picks out of this.

Yes agree, but that that point when still on the field don't know who in the NFL was saying go warm up.  Was it the referee on the field, maybe some low level NFL person assigned to each game to monitor. 

 

I also don't recall ESPN stating the referee just walked off the field and is one the phone  likely talking to someone in the NFL headquarters either.  I don't recall seeing any of the officials ever leaving the playing field.  The officials on the field likely don't feel they have the authority to stop the game either.

The Referee has a headset connected to NY.

Fortunately I have a decent job and am a happily recovering alcoholic.  
 

Things could be worse.

 

I picked up my 60 day chip today with my Bills shirt and hat on and got a “Go Bills” from someone there.  I thought that was just awesome.

Congratulations brother!

[17/18 Game schedule would be better if the NFL ditched home & away within the divisions.]

That way, we could play KC in Kansas City every single year for the rest of our lives.

[Would you consider the Boogie Basham pick to be a disappointment?]

I will just remind a few of you so-called draft-niks that one Bill Belichick is a lousy drafter. I honestly cannot think of a single draft that he nailed, yet they have what? Six freakin’ Super Bowl rings. Eleven AFC Championships.

 

Thus far, I do not believe McDermott and Beane have screwed the pooch drafting as badly as Belichick routinely has. They clearly have missed on second rounders, though. That said, I’ll take a championship run like the Pats had every day and twice on Sundays coupled with mediocre drafts if that’s what it takes.

29 minutes ago, Eastport bills said:

Why would Tunsil think a team needs to pay him top 10 QB money, to make them eligible to min 2 games for a whole season. Could a big time tackle in the draft, on a rookie deal, be worth $25 million a year.

Hey, it worked in MIA so it should work in HOU. Guy is good no doubt. Reminds me of another PIA tackle who left us to have a career in PHI. Thankfully, someone else has to deal with this clown.
