Al Michaels out for NFL playoffs on NBC in move he wasn't expecting
SoCal Deek replied to chongli's topic in The Stadium Wall
Exactly I don’t need three hours of schtick. Seems like he does it on every single play now. -

The dude that’s really starting to wear on me is the guy who’s constantly yelling on every play as if it’s the first time he’s called a football game (Gus Johnson?) -

I remember being allowed to stay up on a school night just praying the Bills would be among those highlights. We rarely were. 😂 -
When’s the Last Time We Ran a “Real” Screen Pass?
SoCal Deek replied to st pete gogolak's topic in The Stadium Wall
I’d settle for the goal line play where the TE pretends to block and slips out the backside to be standing all alone in the end zone. I’ve been waiting FIFTY years for the Bills to run that play instead of some lame fade pattern to the back pylon. Fingers crossed that this is the week. 🤞🏽 -
Mini-Rockpile - Bills Win Again at Arrowhead!
SoCal Deek replied to Shaw66's topic in The Stadium Wall
Pressbox, sideline, wherever. Look at how many guys are standing around Joe Brady with binoculars on. I’m pretty sure they all have a cell phone. 😉 You’d think one of those dudes should be assigned to actually communicating stuff like that. No? Seems pathetic of the Chiefs to blame the refs for something they could’ve easily corrected long before it cost them a game. -

You missed the Howard Cossell era then. The entire nation would tune in just to hear what he and Don Meredith would have to say. It was great fun! -

In my now retired life I’ve learned it isn’t about money. These guys entire existence is wrapped up in their ‘job’. You’ve got it right when you say move over and let the new guys do their thing. -

It seems to me that many people these days are having real trouble calling it quits before they’ve past their prime. When you get to a certain stage or age it’s time to move on and let the next generation take these limited spots. I’m all for tradition but you have to look in a mirror. -
Chance of Playoffs now, according to NYT simulator
SoCal Deek replied to Ray Stonada's topic in The Stadium Wall
I don’t look at it that way at all. I look at like the playoffs start a week early for the Bills. Which as a fan I prefer over a meaningless Week 18 game. -
Mini-Rockpile - Bills Win Again at Arrowhead!
SoCal Deek replied to Shaw66's topic in The Stadium Wall
Well isn’t that why they have about a million coaches standing around on the sidelines? It’s not their job to tell players that it doesn’t look like the refs are calling stuff. It’s there job to tell their players to line up correctly! -
Mini-Rockpile - Bills Win Again at Arrowhead!
SoCal Deek replied to Shaw66's topic in The Stadium Wall
Shaw, they showed on NFL Network how Toney had actually lined up that way on at least three occasions prior that play. I cannot believe the Chiefs coaching staff had the nerve to trash the refs when they themselves had plenty of opportunities to correct him before it cost them the game. -
It’s Dallas week and the Division is on the line!
SoCal Deek replied to Einstein's topic in The Stadium Wall
I’ll try and understate it for you. Yes, it’d be super helpful to win this one but I actually think the Chiefs game and the three after Dallas are way more important (at least seeing now how other things have happened). It’s quite possible that regardless of how the Bills do on Sunday, they’ll be playing for the Division title in Miami. -
Very true. The other thing that always amazes me is how the players interact with each other after the game. The idiotic fans can be getting in fist fights in the stands but the players all gather together to take pictures with their buddies and congratulate the opponent….except for Mahomes of course. 😉

SoCal Deek replied to Einstein's topic in The Stadium Wall
I’m always screaming at the TV when the director insists on camera shots of the coach staring blindly into space ….except when Vrabel is coaching. He’s freaking hilarious! 👍 -
Football is a game of emotion and momentum. I’m always interested in what the teams will know at game time each week. This weekend will be interesting. There are three Saturday games, ALL of which have an impact on the Bills postseason chances, and they’ll obviously know the outcome of all three prior to taking the field late on Sunday.

Hopkins never looks like he’s even breathing hard. Geez we could’ve used that dude! -

All I could think is “man the Titans are losing this one exactly like the Bills had done for nearly twenty years”. -

Never thought I’d feel bad for Vrabel What a clown show -
WR’s checking with officials when lining up
SoCal Deek replied to LabattBlue's topic in The Stadium Wall
Also correct. 👍 The odd thing about all of the Chiefs whining is that Toney did the exact same thing multiple times yesterday and the KC coaching staff apparently never told him to check with the refs! That’s on the Chiefs…not on the referees . -
Not sure if it’s been mentioned but there was a ridiculous panel on NFL Live talking about the play and the one guy showed multiple plays where Toney was also lined up offside yesterday as justification for why the penalty should NOT have been called. I mean, really? What color is the sky in these people’s world? Geeez!

WR’s checking with officials when lining up
SoCal Deek replied to LabattBlue's topic in The Stadium Wall
What you are seeing is the WR checking to see if he’s lined up incorrectly so as to be ‘covering up’ the TE or other WR. He’s not checking to see if he’s over the line of scrimmage. The penalty he’s trying to avoid is illegal formation….not offside. -
Would this be the week to give Elam a chance.
SoCal Deek replied to margolbe's topic in The Stadium Wall
Why would we play our First Round pick when we can watch Taron Johnson run around aimlessly bumping into his own players? Hmmmm?
