Ralonzo Posted January 15 Posted January 15 Just now, finn said: This board would have erupted if McD had punted. It was a good call, but, truthfully, a punt would have been better if it pinned them way back with three minutes on the clock. It was the second down call that started the "Final Destination" sequence of events that has followed the Bills this year. A conservative call there takes you to 2:00 if nothing else, as Romo pointed out. That was the failure, and it was Brady's failure in game management rather than McD for a change.
vanislebills44 Posted January 15 Posted January 15 3 minutes ago, Livinginthepast said: What a strange half. The Bills should be up at least 24-0 if not 28-0. But we are doing really well and Brady has been good. The Martin injury could be bad though and no I dont think its a crazy idea to get Araiza in immediately. Also the non fumble might be one of the worst and most inexplicable calls in playoff history. Up there with the tuck rule play for Brady! i get it, but we did get the ball back on the elam pick and scored a td......

Shaw66 Posted January 15 Posted January 15 1 minute ago, ChronicAndKnuckles said: So does this mean they are gonna go for it every 4th down ? They have to have some kind of solution in the event of this scenario. Bass is probably the backup
Olliemets Posted January 15 Posted January 15 I’m more upset about not running to get it down to 2 minute warning Cascaded into a bad outcome

Billznut Posted January 15 Posted January 15 Pretty sure Martin pulled the hamstring in his left leg. He kicks with his right. So hopefully he can power through. 1

HappyDays Posted January 15 Posted January 15 Just now, NoName said: A blocked punt and people are all over McDermott. Ridiculous. It is just poor game management. We don't get the clock down to the 2 minute warning. Then in a game we're already winning by 3 TDs we send out our shaky kicker in windy conditions and ask the worst unit on our team to execute... Just punt and put the Steelers in a 2 minute drill with the whole field to go. That is smart coaching. 3 1
Meatloaf63 Posted January 15 Posted January 15 6 minutes ago, Meatloaf63 said: Still one of the worst situationally aware coaching staffs in the league. You 🤡’s must not watch other teams. They refused to use Bass in better conditions than this, they are up 3 scores, last set of downs they should have been about running the clock down. 4th down they either should have went for it or punted it out inside the 10. Now they have lost their punter, several injuries on defense Possibly best receiver out. all because we played like fools on that drive.
Rew Posted January 15 Posted January 15 Just now, Shaw66 said: Right. Romo was right. Up by 21, keep the clock running by running on second down. Force Steelers to use time outs. And you're right about the field goal. No need for it there. McDermott really does have clock issues. With the way the defense has been playing I think McD was counting on getting the ball back before half. A bit greedy, but we wanted to score with 2:30 left and leave enough time for us to score again.

Fans have so little respect for the talent on this team and the HC. It really is panic city here. unless they shut out Pittsburgh that’s the only thing that would suffice. 1
Donuts and Doritos Posted January 15 Posted January 15 Hope Diggs is ok. Big 2nd half drive. We need this to keep Steelers down.

billieve420 Posted January 15 Posted January 15 3 minutes ago, Nextmanup said: We can sign any punter not currently under contract...and the season is now over for a lot of players. We can also sign a punter off any practice squad as long as that team is not in the playoffs. We can get someone in there who knows how to punt at the NFL level. won't be the best, but it's not unfixable nightmare. Yeah just get through this game not the end of the world.
Generic_Bills_Fan Posted January 15 Posted January 15 1 minute ago, Breakout Squad said: Tough call IMO. Either going for it or punting would’ve been reasonable People would’ve b*tched if we punted there guaranteed…or gone for it and not got it lol 1
L Ron Burgundy Posted January 15 Posted January 15 Serious question. Could we use this to bring Araiza back? I mean, he's innocent. From his perspective it's a way back in the nfl.
