Garbage play call at the end 

 

Agree, hail mary’s have like a 12% success rate.  not to mention maybe someone gets mugged and they throw a rare flag.  We gifted Detroit the end of half.  didn’t understand why we didn’t take an easy sideline pattern for 7 yards on the play before to get a long FG chance.  terrible

Negative Nancies take a hike! ahead of a 12-1 team at half and played great.

What possible reason could you have to not throw a hail Mary there?

 

7 up. ball in our hands half time.

 

who knows what could happen. they had a lot of men up to rush. could be a sack. fumble. injury. anything. 

 

7 up with a double dip on the cards is not really a time to pray to mother mary. 

 

conservative, sure. but i'd take 7 up at half time with the ball second half every time.

Because Dawkins jumped?  Don’t be an idiot.

 

Did he jump?

 

I haven’t had a chance to go back and look but I didn’t see a jump on the first view.

[Irish Dave]

We had the chance to go for jugular and whiffed.

same as no qb sneak on 1st and goal.   Brady having a siezure or something?

I’m struggling to recall Josh Allen attempting a Hail Mary into the End Zone 

Jets 2022 or 23 was the last time we did 

[Process]

It seems like the coaches are way too concerned with Allen's stats. Trying to get him a passing touchdown at the one yard line for no reason. And not even attempting a hail. Mary. 

 

What are we doing?

[WideNine]

Instead of a false start down in the red zone it should have been defensive encroachment.

 

Our guard was just signaling the center.

 

That was a hugely bad call as we should have had gotten the penalty and the ball near the goal line.

I would get rid of bass during half time.  He’s been a liability all year.  I don’t care if he’s a good guy.

stitched ourselves into a corner with that contract

I didn't hate the idea of giving it to Shakir to see if he can get something surprising. It's not like Hail Marys are guaranteed.

I think it was gonna be a hook and laddery type situation but Detroit made a nice tackle

You serious? We had the ball first and goal at the 3. That's the worst post of the day 

I was talking ex ante.

This coaching staff doesn't have it. They are trying as hard as they can to ruin another Superman performance.

Yeah, I'm sure that's what they're trying to go.

i was like..are actually going to throw a hailmary for a change....i'm not sure buffalo  has a hail mary in their playbook... 

[Straight Hucklebuck]

Man - 2 QB sneaks from the 1, what could Brady possibly be thinking there?

The penalty was on Dawkins, not a guard.

Fair enough, voice of reason. But you can just smell a 3 and out can't you

Yes.  It was close but he did.
