Maybe with 3 timeouts and 3-4 minutes to work the field, they get a better result. 🤷♂️

Yeah, they should have done it a minute and a half ago

You forgot Hodgins first catch and Epenesa's first ejection.

Did Epenesa just earn himself the Jerry Hughes treatment?
Simon replied to Sherlock Holmes's topic in The Stadium Wall
Betcha it had an "F" in it. -
It was right on the edge but I thought there were two subtle reason the flags didn't come out. 1) it was right at the sticks. You tend to get more leeway at the goalline and the first down marker, as it should be. 2) Pickett has some history of fake slides and you can bet stripes knows it Whatever the case, it was good to see an example of that auto call being de-emphasized just to get a better idea of where the line is drawn now.

No huddle offense: could it be something to think about ?
Simon replied to Italian Bills's topic in The Stadium Wall
It's possible, but I would be hesitant to put the defense in a position where they're on the field more than necessary because the offense isn't using up any clock. One reason it might be worth running is that they're not getting a lot of opportunities to run their 2:00 offense. Going no huddle could artificially create some of those opportunities to go hurry-up and practice it for situations where it might be beneficial in the future. -
It barely made the camera, but Dion was smart enough to not screw his offense by going after him while they had the ball in the red zone, waiting until the extra point and then getting up into the second level to stir Jack's stew. The camera didn't get there quick enough to see what he actually "did" but you might be able to see it on the All22. Unless of course, he's a truly wise vet and just squeezed the hell out of a nerve point without being obvious about it.

I'm not sure you have this phrase where you're from but over here people often say "If it ain't broke, don't fix it" He's a devious malcontent and was probably saying that he thinks you were actually sailing in that action! -
All this talk about looking for RBs and WR's before the trade deadline is misplaced, imo. I'd much rather see them add a quality Guard if they're going to spend an asset to make a run.

> Was very happy to see Dorsey finally start to work the edges a bit in the run game. Because of the way that people are trying to defend the Bills' offense, it's been there for the taking all year and it's like he's been intentionally ignoring it. You can win the numbers game out there right now when defenses are cheating to other areas of the field. It won't cure all the running game's woes, but it's a step in the right direction. > Speaking of which, both the Bills Guards a really, really struggling. Not necessarily getting blown up, but they are frequently missing very uncomplicated blocks in a variety of situations. Getting the ball outside the Tackles is probably also a good way to minimize their exposure somewhat until they can get it together. > Damar Hamlin is rapidly finding his comfort zone in this defense already. We'd been seeing some growing pains and not only were they diminishing, they completely left the building today. He was hyper-aggressive attacking his reads all day long and I don't think I saw him take a false step all afternoon. He had a significant impact on the game in multiple key moments and if not for Dodson, he may well have led the team in tackles. Great hustle and smarts all day from him. > Props to Schnowman for hunting up Myles Jack on that extra point after that cheap spear to the face a few plays before the score. This was a very clean game up to that point, but after that *****, the gloves were off. > Josh Allen missed a couple throws today and made a few questionable decisions. Yet somehow his B-game results in 350yrds and 4 TD in the first half? WTactualF? > You won't find any of them plastered all over the stat sheet but the Bills Dline was very effective today. The Stillers clearly wanted the ball out of there as fast as Pickett could sling it and they were still forcing him into quick decisions with how fast they were getting into his field of vision. They also gave absolutely no headroom to Najee Harris to get those legs going. Sacks are fun but you can still hold an offense down by just doing your job well. > Matt Milano and Tyrell Dodson are likely going to be the Bills starting LB's at this time next year. I think I'm OK with that. > The fretting over the Bills WR corps has been a little overwrought, imo. The longer this season goes, the more that seems to be the case with the benefit of hindsight. Diggs, Davis, Knox, Shakir are a fine group and when you figure in the under-utilized Morris and McKenzie this is a handful for opposing defenses. If this group has its health and added experience in Dorsey's offense by the end of the year, they are going to create a lot of points.

Sometimes people make mistakes on the job. I'm sure you've never left the fries in the fryer a bit too long. 🤷♂️

I'd guess that most of us knew the rule and were rolling our eyes, but that yes, you were the only one screaming.

I think he did too but I also think Hussey was already out of control before AJ probably told him to keep his f*ing hands off him. -
Fred Rogers was from Pittsburgh. On the paper is a giant "L".

You're mistaken about that. And Einstein has cost us zero good posters that I'm aware of.
