It's been the same officiating going on for decades and they're not going to have any reckonings.

They think all drama is good drama, and that is more important to them than actual outcomes.

So true. They could fix it if they wanted but they embrace poor officiating as part of the entertainment package.

Just not going to get yards vs Jets on the edges. They’re too fast. Every third and long is a draw play. Not sure what Daboll is thinking here.

The Giants also had two months to prepare for this, while the Bills spent their time preparing for a different QB.

You can't stop Zach Wilson, you can only hope to contain him.

 

"You" = Bills Defenses

[BBFL]

Well that some some interesting defense played by Washington there…

 

🧐

[Goin Breakdown]

Dallas is still throwing. Crazy that they want to make sure they win and that they don't play conservative. I mean teams can barely win too ya know. Sheesh.

They don’t. The Pats don’t have a good offense either. 

[Saxum]

Mitch Trubisky seems to have eaten his Wheaties in game vs Jaguars.

He looks so sad when he is in just to hand off ball.

Still, why attack the perimeter? You’re just not outrunning that D to the sidelines. They’ve done better going elsewhere.

Tannehill has got to hang it up after this season

There are dozens of other threads to B word about the Bills.

Please keep this stuff out of threads that are dedicated to other games.

Folks don't come in here for that; they come in to get away from it.

Don't drag it in here too.

How was that an interception in the Colts-Saints game? Both players had hands on the ball.

[ROCBillsBeliever]

Why can't Zach Wilson play like this, against the Bills?

 

Why?

CFL had team names change a few years back.  Canada is more sensitive to these things.

But rough riders were members of their mounted police.  I think there is another Canadian team still using that name.  I'm wondering what a redblack is.  Is that a reference to a uniform?

Saskatchewan is still the Roughriders 

 

I think Redblacks refers to the lumber industry?

The “improvement” from Zach Wilson the media is selling is hilarious. His stats are still atrocious, and the Jets only win because their D.

That happened to Knox last year .  It depends on who the officials want to win.  The rules state that a tie goes to the receiver.
