12/26/21 Week 16 Gameday Bills @ Patriots* First Half Thread

[Freddie's Dead]

Did the refs see the Ghost of Christmas Future tell them to be nice to Jerry, in order to erase their names from the headstone?

[Nitro]

Ike with an Achilles injury.  Hope Beane has feelers out for OGs.

If you’re going to run out clock, why are you rushing Allen and Singletary?

 

Just kneel.

 

You risk a fumble any other way.

It’s honestly dumbfounding- I sat here mumbling the same thing.

His replacement is unavailable for at least the next 2 weeks.

 

Dont need him out there at all. He runs right into Knox leading to a throw away ball, drops a TD , then gets OPI  . He has done very little for this team and lately has been a detriment.

 

Kumerow and McKenzie can take his place

They would have taken another deep shot but that penalty on Sanders put the bills in danger of giving the ball back with great feild position 

 

Why screw with deep shots though ? Work the field with a shot for a FG. Killer offense moving the ball at will...

[WyoAZBillfan]

I’d love to have non biased commentators, as well as refs that call penalties... on both teams when they happen. You know a fair game, penalties happen all the time. Just be consistent. These guys have missed some, but not horrendous so far.

How can you blame Daboll? 

 

I feel like a broken record, but PLAYERS and EXECUTION of the plays are what matters. Daboll didn't make a wide open Emmanuel Sanders drop a TD pass, or make Zach Moss trip over himself just as he was about to walk into the endzone. 

 

Technically he tripped over Bates but that is one he'd like to have back for sure.

[Ray Stonada]

Forget Miss and Sanders

 

They aren’t up to it

 

Stick to Singletary and Diggs

 

They’ve proven it

Great half overall.

 

I don’t like giving away the possession at the end of the half though with like a minute to go and a timeout. Every possession is precious in games like this. 

 

Up two scores, 1st and 20 at the 10 and they get the ball to start the second half.

 

I got no problem just getting to the break there.

 

Plus, only one timeout at their 10 yard line.

More than likely will come off the practice squad

You are 100% wrong, plenty of times they flew down the field before the half to try and get points. You need be smarter than that if you are going to troll.

This ^ 

 

Huh???   He took a deep shot on first down and there was a penalty.   Dude is a clown. 

[loveorhatembillsfan4life]

I want to be as physical as we can within the rules.. seriously keep punching them in the mouth.  They will fold. Judon has to hide all his cheap crap. 

[pennstate10]

Don’t love our 260 million QB being needlessly used as a nattering ram

A friend of mine is driving in Connecticut to see family and listening to the game on the local patriots radio.    He says that the announcers have been referring to McDermott as papa smurf and taking pot shots at the city of Buffalo the entire game.   He is a Jets fan and hates both teams equally, so for him to call the announcers classless must mean that they are pretty bad.

They've been especially poor this season.

Is this the biggest thread for a first half post?   At 92 pages.  😂

Bills dominating, Jones has happy feet in the pocket, and the OLine looks really good for a change.

 

If we score coming out of the half the Patriots will be hard pressed to get back in it I think.

 

Agree. Just remember the Pats have a lot of fight. They came back vs the Colts. Bills can't let up and must stay focused. We are clearly the better team. 2 more quarters.

Sanders is close to useless at this point 

 

FTFY.

[Motorin']

I hope we keep running Motor in the 2nd half. Still need to pass 2-1, but Motor should get 99% of the RB carries.

He does this every time before a half….never presses. He’s a sissy, scared, conservative coach. 

 

Bills are one of the more aggressive teams before the half...not sure what games you are watching..they also are usually a clinic on how to execute a quick drive in under a minute...

 

Clearly the field position after Sanders PI penalty factored into it.
