Whites Bay Posted October 18, 2014 Posted October 18, 2014 I know (Marv Levy's?) old adage "If you listen to the fans, you'll soon be sitting with them", but...surely if anyone at OBD is reading this forum...they HAVE to see this frustration every goddamn week. You all know what the first play will be. I know what the first play will be. The Vikings know what the first play will be. So here's the question. Why don't we just start the game with...I don't know...2nd and 9, and CJ hobbling to the sidelines with a mildly twisted ankle? Just give up the first down and run 8 seconds off the clock. Because it's just so goddamn predictable. CJ up Pears' ass for a one-yard gain before he's crushed like a beer can at a frat party.

I always thought we ran the no huddle to get the defense back onto the field as quickly as possible so it could showcase Pettine's coaching abilities.

Might as well take 45 seconds off the clock and start the game with 3rd and 9. Third and longs must be part of the gameplan seeing as how we're in those situations at least a dozen times a game.

BuffaloBillsForever Posted October 18, 2014 Posted October 18, 2014 Watkins on the jet sweep for 13 yards.
transient Posted October 18, 2014 Posted October 18, 2014 (edited) Kuaondjio ole'... sack, fumble... 20 yard return for a 7-0 Minnesota lead at 14:46 of the first quarter. Hell, if you're going to be depressing, might as well commit, right? Edited October 18, 2014 by transient

rfk Posted October 18, 2014 Posted October 18, 2014 EJ takes the snap and throws behind...oh wait...CJ runs 20 yards backwards..no...Kyle sips some bourbon and throws a pick six...Bills punt on 1st down, right

Would be worth watching.
