Devin Singletary/ Best Bills player on the field today
wppete replied to Figster's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
He was the best player on the field for the Bills. He needs to improve in pass protection though. He was very weak at pass pro today. -
Late Ford personal foul call a joke
wppete replied to Inigo Montoya's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Some fans are real dirtbags. This is from Cody Fords Twitter. It really seems Cody loves the Bills and loves Buffalo. That was an awful call by the refs. -
Horrible decision to throw that but for F*** sakes DiMarco almost had it, he just jumped way too early. No athleticism at all. Dimarco is also gone next year.

McDermott: Josh Allen 'tried to do too much' in loss

http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000001094390/article/mcdermott-josh-allen-tried-to-do-too-much-in-loss McDermott: Josh Allen 'tried to do too much' in loss What a wild day for Josh Allen. The Bills quarterback began Saturday's wild-card game with a 41-yard scamper and capped that opening drive with a touchdown reception. Yes, the quarterback caught the game's first touchdown. It was far from the wackiest occurrence in Houston as the Bills fell to the Texans in a wild and wacky 22-19 overtime thriller. After the Bills gradually gave up their early lead to the Texans by the latter portion of the fourth quarter, Allen got back to work with unrealistic, if not crazy ambition. The athletic quarterback scrambled down the right sideline in the final minute of regulation, sprinting to a first down before attempting to lateral the ball to nearby teammate Dawson Knox. The tight end understandably did not expect Allen to attempt such a reckless play, watching the live ball bounce on the ground before he desperately batted it out of bounds. It was the latest bullet dodged by Allen in a game full of them. "Just tried to do too much," Bills coach Sean McDermott said of Allen's play, "trying to do too much and getting a little bit maybe extreme with what he felt like we needed at the time, the one lateral on their sideline and whatever it was there. Overall we just didn't make enough plays." A possession earlier, the Bills were on the edge of field goal range when two Allen decisions made their climb to a game-tying field goal or game-winning touchdown much steeper. On third down, Allen got rid of the ball under duress, throwing it to no one and drawing an intentional grounding penalty. The next play, he took a massive sack in Buffalo territory to put the Texans in position to potentially ice the game. When the Bills finally made overtime, Allen completed a pair of throws to extend drives -- but also heaved a 50-50 ball to a fullback, Patrick DiMarco. It was his last high-risk throw, as Buffalo's drive stalled and they never again regained possession. "I was trying to make a play for the team. Whatever it took," Allen said of some of the chances he took. "There were some plays I wish I had back and some plays I wouldn't take back." Allen added: "Every loss is personal and if I can go out there and execute differently, hindsight's 20-20, but there were some things that we should have hit on I put that on my shoulders, especially with how well our defense played today. Teams go how their quarterbacks usually go and I got to be better for this team." Allen was far from the only person involved to make a questionable decision. Texans coach Bill O'Brien challenged a pass interference call on Houston's opening possession of the game, and unsuccessfully opted to go for it on fourth-and-1 instead of kicking a field goal to push the Texans' late lead to six. But it is Allen's Bills who are headed home for the year after their second wild-card loss in three years. Allen's final line -- 24-of-46 passing for 264 yards -- signals an error-free performance. Buffalo wouldn't have been here without Allen, no doubt, but the other near-mistakes (a pass through the arms of J.J. Watt, the two would-be interceptions dropped by Bradley Roby, and a near-fumble caused by Roby) gave everyone watching a feeling that the next close call would be the one to do the Bills in. That never happened, but the Bills are still headed home with their playoff win drought intact. One thing is for sure: The wide-eyed Allen definitely has high-pressure playoff experience under his belt now.

https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2020/01/04/mike-pereira-terry-mcaulay-disagree-with-blindside-block-penalty-on-bills/ Mike Pereira, Terry McAulay disagree with blindside block penalty on Bills The Bills were nearing field-goal range in overtime to attempt a game-winner. Josh Allen scrambled for 4 yards to the Houston 38 on third-and-nine, which would have given Sean McDermott a big decision: Go for it, give Stephen Hauschka a chance for a long field goal or punt. But officials called rookie right tackle Cody Ford for a blindside block. The 15-yard penalty backed up the Bills to their own 43. Allen threw incomplete; the Bills punted; and Buffalo never saw the ball again. But rules officials from NBC and Fox disagreed with the call. “The player is blocking toward his own end line, but the very subjective question would be does he make forcible contact with the shoulder?” NBC rules analyst Terry McAulay, a former NFL referee, tweeted. “Based on what I’ve seen called and not called this year I would have to say it is not.” Mike Pereira, the NFL’s former supervisor of officials, also questioned the penalty. “I think the call is incorrect,” the Fox rules analyst tweeted. “He doesn’t lead with his shoulder or head. He pushes him. It is a bad rule.” The league expanded the blindside block rule for 2019. -

This was the big play Watson made I think -
This game was lost many ways, but the biggest was blocking
wppete replied to Rubes's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Bad play calling, poor tackling and stupid penalties lost this game. -
Looks like we had a decent season this year but we are at least another year away of being serious contenders. In your opinion what changes need to be made this offseason to improve this team? We have roughly $90 million in cap space and 10 draft picks. Do you think McDermott will make coaching changes.

Looks like Matt Milano is to blame on the biggest play of the game. He knocks Neal off of Watson. Neal would’ve taken him down if not for Milano. -
