Gugny Posted October 1, 2017 Posted October 1, 2017 Schop was arguing we shouldn't have tried the last 55 yard FG, and tried to back that up by saying it's not like Hauschka was known for kicking 55 yard FGs and that he had made about four 50 yarders before that. Except he had hit 10 in a row before that and this one made 11. And he had just hit a 55 yarder. And the defense was playing great. And the difference between 3 point lead and 6 is obviously enormous. I, too, was perplexed at their criticism of McDermott for this. The way the D was playing, it was a no brainer to go for the FG and force them to get a TD ... something our previous 3 opponents failed to do in entire games.
BringBackOrton Posted October 1, 2017 Posted October 1, 2017 The only pizzaria in town can be just awful but they will still sell pizzas. They aren't the only post game breakdown media in town though.
Ed_Formerly_of_Roch Posted October 1, 2017 Posted October 1, 2017 All these shows are the same. Lebatard and Stugotz is the same way, if you get Stugotz away from him, he's not bad. Same with Bulldog I don't live in western NY, is WGR still the flagship station?? It is brutal, Schopp sounds like such a miserable person, wish Sal was on post game show
BringBackOrton Posted October 1, 2017 Posted October 1, 2017 I know how you feel...Might want to stay off this board too since thats going on around these parts as well...ridiculous. Back to back wins against undefeated teams no one said we could beat and people still complain. You literally already complained 90% of the posts I've read have been insanely positive. Some folks read what they want to, I guess.

bobobonators Posted October 1, 2017 Posted October 1, 2017 Those two guys are so invested in the Bills losing, all they could do is debate whether Atlanta really was that good and recap old Bills failures. One day, one time, can these guys be happy that we won? How about talking about how friggin awesome this team is, for 10 minutes at least? Sounds like a few people on this board. Complaining is all they know. Also, i wonder how many Bills "fans" lost $$$$ today.
Kelly the Dog Posted October 1, 2017 Posted October 1, 2017 It's the run, run, run leading up to the 55 yard attempt that's the issue, imo. That can be argued. I was okay with the last one that made it a 55 yarder because I thought he was going to nail it (in a dome). But Schop was definitely criticizing the decision to attempt the FG and not the plays before it.

They talked about taking a knee all week,it was a way bigger story than the Bills biggest win in 2 years. It will be interesting to hear what they have to say Monday after biggest back to back wins in the last 8 years.

Scott7975 Posted October 1, 2017 Posted October 1, 2017 It's the run, run, run leading up to the 55 yard attempt that's the issue, imo. Ditto. They got away with being conservative two weeks in a row. At some point they won't get away with it and it will cost them a game. Tyrod has handled the passing plays called just fine. Why play for FGs.
PromoTheRobot Posted October 1, 2017 Author Posted October 1, 2017 (edited) Ditto. They got away with being conservative two weeks in a row. At some point they won't get away with it and it will cost them a game. Tyrod has handled the passing plays called just fine. Why play for FGs. When you don't have WRs you trust why take chances? Why is that not obvious? Also kicking two long FGs is the opposite of conservative. Edited October 1, 2017 by PromoTheRobot

JMF2006 Posted October 1, 2017 Posted October 1, 2017 They aren't the only post game breakdown media in town though. Yeah they had 96.9 shut down theirs.
Steptide Posted October 1, 2017 Posted October 1, 2017 In their defense a bit. They do get some of the dumbest callers.

Gugny Posted October 1, 2017 Posted October 1, 2017 The only pizzaria in town can be just awful but they will still sell pizzas. But there's no such thing as bad pizza.
JoPar_v2 Posted October 1, 2017 Posted October 1, 2017 But there's no such thing as bad pizza. That statement is contigent on how drunk you are
