Which was worse? Efe Obada/Tom Brady or Eddie Robinson/Chad Pennington

[uticaclub]

What was more embarrassing?

[Do The Reich Thing]

Eddie was far worse. I refuse to be a prisoner of the moment.

[dorquemada]

I think the  only Bills player that could tackle Brady is Josh Allen.

[Generic_Bills_Fan]

We laugh cuz he’s slow as sh*t but Brady has made a living being deceptive in the pocket/making a guy miss when he needs to. Gotta get a lot of interior pressure in his face and that bucs oline is just too solid.

Agreed.  Pennington's was on 4th down, in the 4th quarter.  Also robinson legitimately fell over.  

[Sammy Watkins' Rib]

Was that the first year with those god awful uniforms? I think Eddie makes the play if he's in a different uniform. Or at least doesn't fall on his ass.

[jlgarsh]

Eddie Robinson by far. Didn’t he retire right after that?

[BigdaddyinOrlando]

Zero comparison, Eddie R was horrific to see live and still as bad now! Uughhhh.

[Pasaluki]

Eddie R not even close 

[Mikie2times]

What was worse.....

 

Eddie R's miss on Chad? or Henry's stiff arm on Norman?

I don’t think any db is making that one on one play on Henry in the open field…kind of feel sorry for Norman actually lol

No, maybe cut him, that's about all you could do. Still, Norman literally got ejected. Eddie R was bad, yes, but a certain amount of manhood has to be lost when you get stiff armed like that. That's the stuff that changes a man.

Norman could have set up to tackle him or shove him OOB.  He was trying to punch the ball out.

 

And just for example, Hyde set himself up for a textbook open field tackle on Henry.  Henry knocked him down and ran over him, but Hyde hung on to his legs and delayed him long enough for the cavalry to arrive. 

 

How it should be done.

In the context of the game the Henry stiff arm didn't even happen. There were offsetting penalties. Not to mention it would've only been a 4 yard gain anyway

 

2nd & 4 at BUF 44

(6:03 - 2nd) D.Henry left end ran ob at BUF 40 for 4 yards (M.Hyde).Penalty on BUF-Q.Jefferson, Defensive Offside, offsetting, enforced at BUF 44 - No Play.Penalty on TEN-B.Jones, Offensive Holding, offsetting.

 

In terms of raw embarrassment I'd say the Norman stiff arm is worse. In terms of impact to the game it's Eddie R no question. Jets were up 24-13 with 10 minutes left and that play was 4th and goal. Stop it and the Bills have a (small) chance to win. The TD ended the game.

Anyone voting Obada probably wasn’t watching when Pennington juked Robinson out of his cleats.

Yes, he was DOA when he was labeled a "coach on the field" by the staff and played like one😄

He took flight though like... he took him from here charged bus fare and sent him there. The only saving grace was he stepped out of bounds soon after

This was the drought in a nutshell....

I hate you for this poll.

[Red Squirrel]

I just learned Giants Stadium had a grass surface for three years.

 

What's stranger than that is I lived in the NYC market in 2002 and my NFL TV "options" included a game on that field every week.

 

Then again, I didn't remember somebody named Eddie Robinson once played for the Bills.
