We lost to the Bucs on a bad no call.

 

At least our season didn't end on a bad no call.

 

I really feel for Cleveland & the fans there. That's brutal.

 

There's always tomorrow. 

 

I shudder to think how the refs plan on screwing us tomorrow.

 

Not trying to be pessimistic, but you know in your heart it's coming.

[Brand J]

I have zero doubt, ZERO, that if that DB was wearing Buffalo colors, the refs would’ve called defensive holding. It’s like our DBs are under a microscope but the opposing DBs are allowed the contact.

That was clearly a hold. Lol he pulled the receiver away from the ball so he had access to it 😆

 

Agreed, but the WR also pushed off and extended his arm fully.

 

I like the no call there as it easily could have been OPI before the defensive hold.

Funny how this works in the favor of an iconic QB setting a record that day

Yup and will be talked about for half a week on espn, nfl network, fox, cbs, etc.  Good publicity,  Makes me go hmmmmmmmmm.

[Special K]

Cleveland.....a team that is a decent QB away from being a contender......going nowhere with the Progressive insurance salesman they have now.

Bad non call but that hold was way less obvious than Diggs getting dragged down by his collar late in the 4th or having his jersey grabbed earlier vs TB. Still refereeing is borderline pathetic. 

 

Where does the borderline come into it?

[Utah John]

I don't understand this but I can't remember the announcers telling us the name of the Browns' kicker.  Several people have pointed this out.  What's the guy's name?

If they would not of not converted a FG only ties.

I understand. If I were a coach, any time the defense looks as gassed and discombobulated as GB on that drive, I would go for two. Wish McClappy would do that more based on the flow and feeling of the team as opposed to when they absolutely have to have a conversion.

yea i noticed. refs REALLLLLLY swallowing whistle in 4th Q/OT big time plays. like guys throw the flag if its obvious

They swallow the whistle cuz there too p&ssy to make the proper call but then invent a PI on Wallace on 3rd down in OT that doesn’t exist. Maddening and pathetic

Thanks.  There's no reason not to say that out loud as long as you do it correctly.

[Bubba Gump]

Can someone explain this to me. Erin Andrews has to interview Rodgers from 6 feet away. Once the interview is done, she walks up to him and gives him a hug. Why bother with the social distanced interview??? 

[Success]

I was happy when we picked Allen - but I genuinely thought that Darnold and Mayfield were better.  I thought Darnold would be a star.

 

I've taken "NFL GM" off of my potential career-change list.

 

[JoshAllin]

Nice insurance for the bills. Cle can still make it with ravens losing 2 which is do able 2 and cincy losing 1 out of the next 2

Even if it was spelled Negger I’d have no problem with them saying it. It’s not like they’re insulting a person of color. It’s the guy’s name.

Yup- Broncos are similar

That last drive, the Browns could’ve run it into FG range.  Not sure why they got away from it. There was time. 

[Protocal69]

The Browns got hosed BUT all the Browns had to do was RUN THE BALL. 3 timeouts and and the Pack couldn't stop the run.

I agree, but I can see where you just don’t wanna give the sound bite just in case. There have been freakouts over what people thought they heard, like the one fan at the baseball game yelling to the mascot was mis-heard over the mic and became a news story and he got doxxed and threatened. I feel bad for the kid, if his name was Hitler it probably would be 100x less a problem.

 

I am just glad the Browns aren’t gonna be a problem, since they held all the tiebreaks in the afc. Sucks that the Mafia Football League had to decide it the way they did.

 

Ok Colts, your turn to go out and get hosed to get our new media darlings back in the mix…
