    You're all kidding yourself if you think the refs care about the Bills good, or bad.  The Bills bring most of these things on themselves.

     

    There is NO WAY you watch other games and think, WOW these refs are wonderful and make every call right, but for some reason they are routinely awful against just the Bills.  Every crew makes mistakes in EVERY game, not just the Bills games.

     

    Enough of the "they're out to get us" nonsense.

    Thanks referee!  I actually think the refs suck all around, they just tend to suck less for teams that sell a lot of jerseys and play in prime time.

     

    We're all entitled to our opinions.  When you make it to the pros, be sure to bring your integrity with you!

    How many refs remember that?

    Walt Coleman called that game I believe.

     

    I don't believe the league has it out for the Bills... my post was somewhat in jest... but I see holds, interference, helmet to helmet all the time.  I do think the league favors the "good" teams (calls lean their way, benefit of doubt)... just like good pitchers get more flexible strike zones in baseball.  It's the only thing that makes sense to me.

    Murph says bad call, but of course, no replay by CBS.

    Has the NFL started ordering no replays on flags or close calls?  I've noticed it in different games.  Just made me wonder if the league is trying to influence the bumbling perception of the referees.  I haven't noticed any conversation about it... just others mentioning it as well.

    Not in love just nice to have competence at the position , hopefully he can be a good backup.

     

     

    As far as Allen learning from the sidelines, he's probably seen more done right today than any of Peterman's or Anderson's starts. 

     

    I know we want to see what's he got but I don't want Jacksonville's defense to get better at his expense... and as some will point out, reps can damage a young player if they force him to learn bad habits (bailing early, not trusting reads). 

     

    Josh is a raw but talented QB, playing on what could be described as a practice squad offense.  Being under constant pressure may not be what we want for him at this stage of his career (like a Jeff George or David Carr).  I've been for letting him sit and learn but you need a competent player to watch and a decent line to learn behind.  To this point, he's had neither.

     

    I'm not saying that Barkley is a pro bowl talent the Bills stumbled upon,  but he looks like the best mentoring option I've seen so far this year.
