now we need a double agree button!!! the counter point to my own argument is that if someone clicks disagree on my post, I’m likely to tag them and ask them why.... so.... 😛

I’m literally going to put agree on every post I see this week, except @Virgil- he sucks.

You’re doubling down on being wrong. Nowhere did I say that losing would have been 100% on the refs, but this is pretty simple... I’ll use clear language since you struggle with comprehension: When you make the game winning play, and the refs steal it from you illegally, a subsequent defeat is at least partially the fault of the refs. This is not a hot take unless you describe hot take as “something all logically thinking adults can agree on.” Peace out bean sprout.

there are some posts I am less likely to reply to if I can state my disagreement via a quick click.... just a thought. I went to like this and there was an “agree” button!!’ What the heck!

This is what we should root for. Take a stud out of the AFC and get the 49ers what they need to be dominate.

We need a negative reaction other than confused or sad. Those ones are ambiguous.

This is idiotic. I’m sorry. But it is. You play the 60 minutes of a football game, you’re playing against elite competition, you’ve battled all game and put your team in a position to win, you make the game ending- game winning play and the refs steal it from you. Playoff games are supposed to come down to a handful of plays. The refs negatively affected our ability to win the game by breaking the rules, and we had to overcome it in order to win. Blaming the refs for ticky tack calls that happen in the course of a game is lame. Blaming the refs for stealing a victory by completely ignoring reality is normal.

the dolphins side of this is a nothing burger as of now. The fact that Watson likely wants out is the big story. In order to go to Miami you’d have to have this situation: - Dolphins willing you send Tua, plus at least 1 (more likely two) first overall picks, and some to Houston. - Miami willing to give up on Tua and pay all that plus serious $$ for Watson - Whatever coach Houston hires wanting Tua - Houston willing to trade Watson in conference and risk him being a thorn in their side for years. This seems unlikely to me when there are several NFC teams that would undoubtedly cough up the same compensation for him.

If the colts had scored a TD on a blown coverage directly following the fumble idiocy, would you blame the refs at all for the Bills losing?

I'm really struggling to digest this.... When you win the game by observing the rules, making a damn good play, and coming up big in the biggest of spots - to then have the play incorrectly called (as agreed on by every single person in the world) and the refs to say "eh, ***** it. lets give em another shot." is my very definition of the having to beat the refs as well. The Colts were given undeserved opportunity at the end of the game, and as a result, the Bills defense had to overcome that and win anyway. Aside from that, there were some ticky tacks as well: multiple uncalled delay of games, a missed helmet to helmet on Diggs on his first deep catch. But those are minor comparably and I wouldn't be saying we had to beat the refs on those alone, even if they were bad calls.

Wasn’t 12th man ours first?

It felt like a game where we had to beat the Colts, the refs, and ourselves.... but sometimes you get games like that. SB teams find a way to win when they’re not playing perfectly. It happens. we’re a mentally tough team and we have all the parts needed to go on a run.

You guys are giving room in your head to a dude with a ***** shaped nose.

Im not entirely sure that the Steelers are a better matchup for us than the Titans. People fear the Titans due to what happened when we played them, but they’re the least balanced team left in the AFC. (Maybe the browns.) Im rooting for the Titans and the Steelers today.

I mean, if you compare this game to how they played the SB winning Chiefs of last year without Phillip Rivers, and without Deforrest Buckner, the argument exists that we did damn well. Some teams are built to beat certain types of other teams.

The Team losing cause of their defense was slightly unexpected....

Really rooting for this kid right now. He looks hurt. Montez, if he comes in, is a guy I was intrigued by as a developmental backup for josh as he has a similar skill set.

Do the Skins actually have a great defensive line? Cause I haven’t seen it here tonight.....

Are we ready to have a serious conversation about casting Bruce Arians as Penguin in a Batman flick?...

Washington Offense outplaying their defense. Just as expected.

That Allstate Commercial made sure to include the “do not attempt” fine print for driving recklessly on the moon....

They live to please Marcia. Boys getting the crap blitzed out of him.

Moment doesn’t look too big for him, but man that isn’t much of an offense he’s on.

This guy can actually play a bit.

The problem with appealing to “it’s too close to change” is that it’s saying “yah, they mighta ***** it up initially, but let’s just go with it cause who knows.”
