He was 5 yards away and it "appeared" uncatchable because he was interfered with and not allowed to make a play on the ball. Uncatchable balls are called, typically, when it's 5yds over a guys head or 5 yds out of bounds... not when the WR is trying to stop and come back to the ball and clearly and blatantly held up. There were plenty of questionable calls in this game... on both sides. But this was not one of them.

I do believe it's closer to $30 mill. and I'm sure that's what the FO is doing..trying to make sure everything fits. IMO, they don't need to front load Stevie. You know he's gonna be here for a while. Probably same with FItz. But if Freddie doesn't get his money up front, he probably doesn't see it all. None the less, I'm confident they'll all be reworked and finish their careers as Bills. I wan Fred and Stevie and these guys paid because then they stay Bills and then the Bills keep winning and then I keep enjoying my football season and then life is good again. I could care less how much they get paid.. just as long as it's enough to keep them happy and in Buffalo.

For the most part, I'll agree. However, there's a true genuineness in his demeanor. He's focused on one thing right now - winning games and getting to the playoffs.

Great interview by Jamie Dukes! Video Link When asked which tweet do you want from Deon - Pay the Man or from Dukes I believe in the Bills and they'll make the playoffs ? Without hesitation, he says its all about the playoffs. Do that and everything else takes care of itself. I'm loyal to the soil. I want to stay with the Bills. When have you heard a player make comments like that? I mean the guy is mature beyond his years and definitely has the right perspective. The guy is all class, all Buffalo, and all world. Pay the guy (and Fitz and Jackson) and keep this team rolling!

Agreed on all accounts. It's one of the things about this thing I keep mulling over in my mind; they appear to just be scratching the surface. Offensively, they haven't played a full game yet. Granted they started the KC game om time; but recall the backups came in about the 9 min (?) or so mark of the 4th quarter. Did Spiller even play yesterday? He was nearly MIA. And the defense is missing McGee while Dareus is still a rookie and Merrimen is mostly MIA (for whatever reason we want to speculate). IMO, this team is still very much on the upswing. They just have to keep building and moving forward.

Not a meda line, but Welker in his post game press conference. He looks all sad and dejected and says: It was supposed to be a fun day setting records and such, but it didn't turn out that way. (or something very close to that) Love that we ruined him and Brady's perfect day!

I was going nuts on the pick 6 play! But that lasted about a minute, because I knew there was still 10 minutes in the game and Brady would certainly score again. Action Jackson's big catch and run was huge! Again nuts, crazy jumpin! But that lasted about a minute, maybe 2, because I knew there was still plenty of time for some heart wrenching way to screw up a sure thing. When that FG went through and I saw the game clock his 0. Well.... I'm still on a high! So, for me, seeing that kick go through with zero seconds left was just awesome.

What's the quote from that move Miracle... I'm not looking for the best players; I'm looking for the right players.

We definitely benefited from a few calls in the game. But, I can't call either of the calls on that drive "gifts". Both instances were clear penalties. The first was clearly a blow to Fitz's head. Was it a hard blow? No. But, the rules are quite clear - hit the QB's head and you get a flag. The fact that they called it on a Buffalo QB playing against NE* is a surprise, I agree. But, its the right call based on the current rules. (Of course, if you're name is Vick... screw you. ) The pass interference was also clear and blatant. Nelson stopped and tried to come back to the ball; the CB blatantly held him/ran into him and prevented him from doing so while in no way looking back at the ball. Again, clear cut pass interference. The reason the ball was 5 yds short of Nelson is because... he was held. I fail to see how that's any different than a ball 5 yds overthrown because the WR is held. I agree, Fitz was lucky there and Nelson made a great play to draw attention and get the flag. But, that doesn't change the fact that he was indeed held while the ball was in the air. I don't think the refs in any way bailed the Bills out there. They did their job. It's unbelievable; I'm not used to the refs calling penalties against the Pats*; but they did their job.

I agree. The Bills have a long way to go before they can mark anyone down as a win. I'll be watching this game to see how this team responds. It's not uncommon for a young team to come out flat after such a huge and emotional win as we just had. So far, they're all saying the right things. It'll be interesting to see if they come out and take care of business.

I loved that! Seriously, how often has anyone seen anything like that? It's amazing the feeling this team must have this week. I'm sure they do, but I really hope they realize that they're part of something so much bigger than themselves and their stat lines. I hope they can keep it rolling for another week. Go Bills!

Thanks! and welcome aboard!

I completely and totally agree. What I take exception to is the quote: "-Max: You're not set for life yet with three kids. You're trying to set yourself up for the future and your family." How is making a couple of million dollars a year for 3+ years not setting you up for life? Yes, he deserves a pay raise - a significant one. But, not because he's poor and struggling to take care of his family. That's all.

Ocho is taking alot of heat for dropping that pass. And, perhaps, rightfully so. But, the Pats* still scored on that drive. All his drop did was take more time off the clock. If he catches the ball and scores; in no way does it equate to a Pat* win. If anything, the way that game was going, it would have lead to a couple more scores by each team. So, no, I reject your notion that Ocho's dropped pass was what allowed us to win.

Look.. I'm on record as wanting Fred's contract redone as much as anyone. He's produced and shown that he more than deserves it. But, this idea that he has to take care of his family is absurd. He's set to make $1.75 million this year - alone. How many people in this country raise a family and make less than that in their lifetime! To think that he is somehow poor is an insult as best. To think that he needs a raise because him and his family are somehow struggling or won't have enough money to live off is just ludicrous. He's a starting NFL RB that has shown time and again that he deserves to be paid commensurate with his counterparts - the top RBs in the league. But, it has nothing to do with some notion that his family is struggling to get by.

I voted for the pick 6. It was critical timing and got us the lead! But, I do wanna give some props to Leodis. He's really gotten his fair share of criticism around here. But, his INT was beautifully played! That thing was all him. Here's to more.....

I think the day they cut Trent has gotta be right up there.

Undefeated Bills in first place! ...just feels good saying that Go Bills!!

If the league says anything... it'll be to issue a new rule. You can't take a knee and intentionally run the clock down if Brady is on the sideline.

Sorry... just wanted to say that out loud. It feels awesome!

No. You are only partially correct. Fitz may have thrown the game winner to Nelson, but it was my running around the house rubbing each one of my Bills logos on my Bills gear exactly 3 times while saying... let's go Buffalo that allowed him to make that throw. I'm certain without me doing that, there's no way WE win.

You, sir, win the avatar of the month award. I love it! ...and playoff dreams are definitely still alive! I had a dream last night that the Bills had just won the wildcard game against the chargers and were facing... the Pats* next week in the divisional round.

On my couch... and most certainly pacing throughout the house... in Greenville, MS.

One of my favorite movies! how can you not quote it?

Maybe hevwas cut.. just so Nix would sign him. ...and give Chan false information. sneaky fuggin Patriots*
