Broncos @ Bills - Playoff game day thread (1st half)

[Big Turk]

10-7...just like the last time we played the Broncos in the playoffs...

[popcornpam]

Somebody’s trying to bottle our Josh uptoo conservative

[mannc]

Have the Bills ever run a successful fake punt?  I can’t remember one.

[Miyagi-Do Karate]

Let the adventure of our punting unit begin. What has smiley dialed up? Allowing a bad block, a bad penalty, or a long return?

How are we getting so many flags vs them?  We gotta calm down

 

Payton is a very detail oriented coach. Ultra-disciplined teams, he won't tolerate mental mistakes.

[SoCal Deek]

Way too many presnap penalties for a home game. You don’t work all season to get home field advantage to be doing this. Period! 

[dma0034]

The False Start killed that drive

[Mrbojanglezs]

Only 7 points in the first half is...concerning

Pay attention. Denver did. 

Well, CBS is still showing Denver with 3

[paulmm3]

Did Denver not call a timeout at 2:22? Why does the graphic still show them with 3?

[peterpan]

We could get a quick 3-out and get the ball back

Dawkins did not move before Brown did

That's our buddy ref making all the bad spot calls too

Is it me or does Josh look like he’s not having fun? Likes he’s stressed or knows the pressure is on?

No one is getting open

it should have been play-action on first down when the Denver d was stacking the box, and then a run on 2nd down.

 

Brady is great but play-action is his kryptonite. He has little feel for it and misses perfect situations to call it.

Yep. They need to take some shots on 1st down with play action.

Hard to put together 15-20 play drives and be perfect

He didn't. I don't know why the clock stopped. Had to be the Broncos

 

Allen used the Bills Timeout

It’s called a two minute warning

there was that one in the Johnson administration…

 

(Lyndon, not Andrew)

[T.E.]

McDermott thrilled. Got to flip field position and run a bunch of clock. Scoring was never an actual objective there. Playing not to lose.

mcdermott should be fired at halftime if he does that

 

the game can be lost right here.  They need a great punt and this is the time for a takeaway.

 

a bad punt and the broncos getting 3 before the half is really bad for buffalo

Sorry, forgot to add (sarcasm)....come on man...
