Singletary was close to fumbling with seconds remaining

[TheFunPolice]

Lots of guys "almost fumble" or "almost don't make the catch" or "almost miss the block" every week.

 

He recovered and went down right away, which was smart.

It was a great punch and he held on to win the game.  

 

Yeah I watched it a few times and the punch was perfect.  The ball gets punched at all the time and Oweh landed it flush....

[BuffaninSarasota]

It must be "Edmond's" (sic) fault ......

It does matter because you won’t always be so lucky.

 

People often ignore issues because of a win, until they resurface in a loss.

 

Like our inefficiency in short yardage situations. I created a thread about it after the first 2 wins and people said “we won!”

 

Well, yeah. But then we didn’t. And not being able to convert short yardage was part of the problem.

I'm not really sure I understand how what you're saying is applicable to what I just said.  

 

Short yardage/Running game issues: Yes, a problem, and a problem mostly in the Bills control.  A topic worthy of discussion.

 

Random defensive play where a player makes an excellent punch at the ball but Singletary continues to control it to the ground: Out of the Bills control (mostly), therefore pointless to talk about.

For whatever reason he doesn’t have two hands on the ball. His left hand is clutching his right hand. Weird and he, and the Bills, are lucky it didn’t pop out.

end of game like that people on D will be going to create a fumble. Fact he didn't is a good thing.

More reason to trade for Barkley 😈

The issue Einstein is that we were down by 17 points on the road, in the rain, against a good team in a hostile environment, a place that we have had a notoriously difficult time winning at.  And we came back to win and did not allow them to score 1 point in the second half.  That stuff is legendary!!

 

No team is perfect.  They are human beings.  But good teams get it done in the clutch.  We made every play we had to, to win the game.  I thought it was an amazing win.  As sweet as any I have watched in years.  The win was a gamechanger for this team and the coaching staff.  Need to win the close ones against good teams to be a champion.  Thought you might need a little different perspective on what transpired on Sunday.

Looks like he hung on in spite of a perfect punch out.

Hence the screen name.....sorry this is a non issue for this play.  Bottom line he held onto it, the Bills won......alll good.

I think he’s had a bunch of non-fumbles so far and the season is still young.

I’m really excited because we may get to see 200 more non-fumble threads.

Week one we were 90% on third down and scored on every possession we didnt turn the ball over. We also out scored the other team by 21 points.

Week two we had two drives that ended on a short yardage down and we out scored the other team by 34 points.

 

I fail to see how at that point they were inefficient in short yardage.  It was two drives out of two games.

 

You seriously wonder why people mock you and think you are negative?

I almost didn't read this.  Yet, here we are.

[stevewin]

On Josh's TD run it loked like he fumbled, but was likely already in EZ - after watching the play again it was a lot closer than I thought - whether he crossed the line both with control of the ball and not already down by contact

Never saw this angle before. Watch how close Singletary to blowing the game here. Time for a RB upgrade!

 

 

I just don’t understand how someone can search for every negative possible. “He almost fumbled! Bills almost lost!” He didn’t. They won. 
 

life is better when you start from happy.
