Looked like Bernard is in man coverage with the running back who stayed in to block.

that is a weird thing to take away from the video and what he and mcdermott said.

Seems like it would have worked perfectly if Jackson stayed where he was supposed to be though. benford is blitzing and he is coming fast and the interior closed the middle down. If jackson stayed home he probably forces maye to throw it away or try and run. bummer because it was a big play

I thought this was interesting today. Sal made a good point so I put the two clips together with the play they are talking about. I wonder if McDermott was talking about Jackson or if it was someone else....honestly who else though? This must be Sean's way of calling out young players. Quick note for those of you who are so far advanced in your football knowledge as opposed us fat losers living in our mom's basement playing maddenwho don't watch the nfl, you already knew about this play and what happened right so spare me your personal insults.

McDermott just said he is officially week to week. Poor guy considering how they downplay injuries publicly here he may be on life support somewhere.

Seems riq woolen is a corner that could be available, according to various league guys. He seems to fit the we need speed at the corner spot requirement.

Sal said on his podcast a minute ago it seems like he is going to be out for awhile. He might end up being on IR creating a roster spot for Hoecht.

sounds like we lost milano again for a while. It would be great if someone in the secondary could make a play on a ball. Erik Turner just said on his podcast with sal that the bills have the lowest pass breakups in the league. They have only 2 for the year. A league Low. Defense is going to make this team have to score in the 30's going forward. Such a bummer.

That stinks. Sorry about that. Sounds like he had a great home and a great life.

I did no such thing. I made this thread to point out how the ball is not there when shakir is hit and Allen was hit in the face while throwing, no flags. Secondly, I so much believe in Allen that I am the one saying I believe he can make that throw. I think Allen played well enough to win. They get the PI they win the game because they probably burn another 2 minutes or more and score leaving very little time for new england to push the ball up the field. You have it exactly backwards. Try reading the thread, you will see. Its more of a Pro Allen thing from me. I believe he makes that throw.

What? Now you are attacking me for having an opinion also? You think I don't watch the nfl and don't know anything? Whatever. I now have been told I live in my moms basement, I only understand football from a madden point of view (don't even own or play the game) and now I do not watch the nfl either? Ridiculous. I will just keep my thoughts to myself going forward I guess.

a baby? He was hit in the face on the last play and the guy who did it got up and was talking trash to him. He simply responded. a baby. Give me a break.

I will. Hopefully we have some more healthy guys on Defense next time and play a clean game with no penalties. Allen will remember those guys trash talking him after that last drive, that is how he has always been. He looked super pissed in the postgame pc.

I just watched Josh in the post game and he said "Bad Snap Exchange" when asked about the play with knox. Allen was clearly ticked off in the postgame pc. On the last play of the game after we didn't get the PI, you could see one of the pats lineman was taunting josh and he said shut up you effing B. Cant wait till we play them again.

the first play was a screen to shakir that he dropped. hit him right in the hands. how is that a hero ball play?

No, that throw was in the middle of the field which was very crowded because two wr were running similar routes at different depths. That was a really tough throw. Maybe he didn't throw to samuel because he didn't want to risk it since they were in fg range alread but there was a lot of open space and allen has an amazing arm. I am all for Allen firing away there and taking that shot, again though, in rhythm in the pocket and not after he is outside the right hash.

I wouldn't have. I am not scared of Josh making that play and I don't complain about Interceptions. Sometimes you have to take shots. I have been pretty consistent I don't fear Josh throwing Int.

Yes and if we had Sam Darnold as our QB I would agree with you. I 100% believe Allen can make that throw. I also think Samuel would score if he does but I am open to the idea that maybe he would have been stopped short. But I 100% think Allen can make that throw.

yea my first thought was it was a fake to knox and then a pitch to cook or a fake to knox and then throw it to knox in the flat. I guess it doesn't matter.

You can go through the back of a wr while the ball is in the air since the qb is out of the pocket? Since when? Illegal contact is forgiven with the qb out of the pocket but I don't recall when a defender is allowed to go through the back of a wr early and make that play. It was PI and he knew it and couldn't believe it when it wasn't called. He was sitting there waiting for the flag.

He clearly just completely botched the handoff. Allen gave it right to him. They always statistically give these fumbles to the qb though which confuses a lot of people thinking its on the qb. This was clearly not.

Diggs got a free release all game at the line of scrimmage. There were a few times where he ran like 5 to 7 yards before anyone was even around him. It was made so easy for him to get open and get the ball quick.

To be clear with everyone who has confused this with a bashing allen post. I believe Allen can make that throw all day to samuel, over the linebacker and in between the safety and corner who is sitting at the 18 yard like. We have seen him make tons of throws over linebackers and between safeties. This is actually the opposite of a bash allen thread. here are two simple examples of Allens incredible arm strength doing just that.

Here is the knox fumble. Gilliam and Kincaid on the line next to brown were blocking at the snap. This looks like it was a straight handoff to knox and the timing was sort of off and knox just fumbled the ball somehow.

I am looking forward to the explanation on that play. Was it a handoff to knox on a jet sweep trying to be a surrpise ish play....was it a fake to knox with a pitch to cook? was it a fake to cook and a play action pass (Probably intended for knox in the flat) and knox just knocked the ball out of his hand because the timing was off? it will be nice to hear what that play actually was but they won't tell us.
