  1. Hollins was open by five yards and looking for the ball to come over his left inside shoulder as normal. The QB is supposed to loft the ball to his inside so he can track the ball without turning his back. To insist he meant to throw the ball to the sideline to require an over the shoulder adjustment and catch is nonsense. Simply an overthrow to the wrong shoulder by Josh. It happens.
  2. I believe the coaches overly think their gameplan and once they decide this is the way were going to attack a certain team, that's it. We're too slow (stubborn ?) to adjust during the game. The defense I saw against Lamar was not good and the coaches did not respond. Look at how they played the 1st three games - what we saw against the Ravens was not the same team. Players the same - gameplan and strategy entirely different.
  3. Looked like the Bills were playing a soft defense (modified prevent)? Never saw so few Bills around the ball. The Ravens were free to roam for yards before and after the catch (bend but not break)? Lots of single player tackle misses. I didn't see the aggressive multiple player tackles as in previous games. Maybe they were afraid of Lamar and conceded too much space. Overthinking on defense? Hope they can come up with a better gameplan next time.
  4. Very simple - You chase a player down from behind then you grab him by the waist and bring him down without throwing your body weight on the back of his legs. So a hip drop tackle is when you grab a player's waist from behind and then swivel your body to put your total body weight on the back of his legs thus trapping his lower leg(s) between your body and the ground. Leads to serious lower leg injuries. Its very obvious to see and a good rule change.
  5. The last game the defensive line made 0 tackles. With my eyes I see the same defensive line play over and over and never getting to Mahomes. Perhaps we needed someone to recognize the situation and try different things to help the line. More stunts, blitzes etc - anything to put more pressure on Mahomes and/or make a tackle. Time for a new defensive coordinator and to make McDermott function as Marv Levy who was a special teams guy.
  6. The Bills did not want tp get into a shootout with Mahomes at any cost. They basically played prevent defense all game. Even Mahomes said the Bills played to prevent the long ball all game. So it appears the Bills were good with death by a 1000 cuts in willing to concede the running game in an effort to slow the Chiefs. It almost worked as we were in it at the end and showed some toughness at the very end. I think they did this in Tennessee as well. This is why the Chiefs ran wild and convert so may 3rd downs. But this has to be a morale killer to a proud defense, to give up so much yardage willingly and is it sustainable?
  7. Unnamed sources have indicated that the average temperature in Hell is falling. There is an unprecedented frost warning in effect. Further details at a later date.
  8. As he approached the kickoff, fans would yell "yooooooooooooooooooooo" and when he kicked the ball would yell "ho".. Fun times.
  9. AWOL = Absent without official leave UA = Unauthorized absence Heard both terms during service. Not really sure of the difference. Did a tour of duty as a corrections officer in Camp Pendleton brig 1967
  10. All penalties should include consideration as to whether it actually affected the play. If a penalty occurs on the opposite side of the field and has nothing to do with the play, the official should not throw a flag. The penalty is moot.
  11. I think it means someone is stupid because of the stupid things they do. Sort of a self fulfilling prophecy.
  12. Not impressed at all. Where's the fire? You gotta have some fire going, Naked and jumping on a burning table is the way to go.
  13. Anybody considered that maybe the punt play was actually a screw up by the Pats special teams? Find it hard to believe he purposely left a gunner totally uncovered. Pictures I saw showed no Patriot within at least 20 yards, if not more.
  14. Thought the refs decided to just let them play. I don't recall many stoppages of play for ticky tack fouls,. Don't recall any holding calls.
  15. I think that scenario would drive the coaches crazy. OK when do I throw this one-time flag? If Reid had thrown it earlier in the game, then what? So I think they would probably keep it in their pocket until the last few minutes of a close game and probably never even use it. I've seen so many replays of passes where the db and receiver are hand fighting the whole time. More often than not receivers are giving a push on the db when running an out pattern. Like so many have said, pi (off or def) could be called on probably 90 percent of passes. I've watched football for over 50 years and played for 10 and still have no real answers for handling PI. Don't think you can review every one.
