Virgil Posted April 10, 2021 Posted April 10, 2021 In hind-site, I'm glad it happened. Same for the Hail Murray. Those losses made this team better and gave them the killer instinct 6 1
Warcodered Posted April 10, 2021 Posted April 10, 2021 They going to reimburse Cody Ford his fine now or what? 12 2 11
CorkScrewHill Posted April 10, 2021 Posted April 10, 2021 Cody Ford should ask for his fine money back .. he was fined for what the NFL considers a legal block ... I would have my agent all over the league office 7 6
Red Squirrel Posted April 10, 2021 Posted April 10, 2021 I have to admit my first thought when I saw the title of this thread was, "Wait a minute... they knew Deshaun Watson was a sex pest way back then and let him play anyway?" 3
Utah John Posted April 10, 2021 Posted April 10, 2021 That blind-side block call was the second-worst of the game, the worst of course being the decision to let the Texans off the hook for botching the second half kickoff return. At that point, the refs just got out their Ouija board and made something up to keep the pro-Texan networks happy. 3
TBBills Posted April 10, 2021 Posted April 10, 2021 Already got the apology when the Texans imploded and Watson started being a serial massage rapist. 6

Did you see all those extra officials dressed in black head out onto the field from the stands? I thought the guys wearing the stripes were in control of the game? The only thing missing was the Black Suburban's ;)................but I guess they were parked outside 1 1

RobbRiddick Posted April 10, 2021 Posted April 10, 2021 So much of the stuff about sugar high Josh comes from the fact that we lost that game. There's no doubt he did melt down in that game but if that flag wasn't called and the FG is good, chances are he gets praised for leading us back in the face of adversity 7 1 1

Freddie's Dead Posted April 10, 2021 Posted April 10, 2021 (edited) The *****in' NFL apology letter to the Bills. We got a drawer full of the mofos. Did they also apologize for taking away the 2nd half kickoff TD? *****in' #######s. Edited April 10, 2021 by Freddie's Dead
Chandler#81 Posted April 10, 2021 Posted April 10, 2021 Idk if making referees full time will help this menace, but something drastic has to change! Overall, officiating is terrible and unacceptable. BASTARDS!🤬 1

I would have my agent all over the league office With 15 months' worth of interest! I will say that it does take guts for the NFL to admit they made a mistake, and admit it in such a public manner. They could have just continued to officially agree with the call, while notifying their referees discreetly not to call it again. 1 1

Just DON'T DO IT AGAIN!!! You don't say? Where are the posters who argued that that was a good call? And the premise that it got the Bills Diggs and made Josh hungry is dumb. Even if the Bills had won the game, they would have lost to the Chefs the following weekend, leading them to still add Diggs and Josh to be hungry. Edited April 10, 2021 by Doc 2 2 3

This is not a Horatio Alger novel where “the little lad learns life’s lessons” and it all gets tied up with a bow at the end. A playoff win in Houston might’ve helped this franchise grow even faster than it did, attract more free agents, build the confidence they need to beat KC, etc. Or they could’ve gone on a run and won a Lombardi? Life is too short for the shenanigans that go on with NFL officiating. Edited April 10, 2021 by Coach Tuesday 4 4

You may be onto something there. Why would they wait 15 months later (they usually acknowledge this quickly) and after Watson's issues arose?
