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

[bigduke6]

Hamlin looks to get contact when he blitzs.  not sure if thats on purpose to try and free up somebody else,  or hes just bad.  either way,  doesnt appear to work.

[Nitro]

Bills defense held the Broncos to 9 first downs, 161 yards and 7 points.  Not too shabby.

D actually holding up a little. O has been possessing it but need some TDs. This is Denver's ideal game right now.

McDermott NEVER FREAKING LEARNS.

 

Its truly sickening.

 

Dont EVER call defensive timeout when the opposing offense is battling the clock.

NEVER give them time to come up with a play.

 

For ***** sake dude. How many times are you going to make this mistake????

 

Bailed out by Denver’s kicker.

He does that because he’s flustered and worried and doesn’t know what to do

If you don't use your timeout there they only have 15 seconds and one timeout left which shrinks their options. Use your timeout and now they can take a shot downfield knowing they'll still have their timeout to run one last play to set up a FG.

 

Sean just can't help himself.

The clock was already stopped

Tony romo's ball washing of the rookie comparing him to Tom Brady crowning him if he can lead them to some points he's on his way he said.

Need to punch Denver right in the mouth after halftime. 

[Julio Hopkins]

The drafting failures have really reared their ugly head so far.

I hope that shows itself in the second half because Allen looks frustrated, OL has been meh in the pass game and evidently no one is open downfield.. ever. 

And their kicker just bailed them out

Gave up 7 points and it's the defenses fault.  Wake up the hell up people.   

People don't comprehend that points is what matters. It's not yards. 

 

7 points given up that half is a huge win.

Yeah noticed that too...seems there is a gap and he runs at the lineman.

Yes!

 

It is inexplicable.

 

He just never freaking learns.

 

How many times does he have to see a defensive timeout, when the opposing offense, help the opponent, before he stops doing them????

[Charles Romes]

Every defensive timeout by McDermott is like a free first down minimum 20 yards.

Because our DL rarely beats their man to force a hold!

There have been many obvious holds so far. The play to set up the field goal Von miller was obviously held

What if WR breaks deep?  

You pressure him towards the sideline.  Use it as another defender.  Basic DB play.

[Special K]

Still not worried about winning this one, but my confidence level going forward in the Playoffs is taking a bit of a hit.

[jcamm1966]

Need to take some downfield shots , even resulting in a PI , unleash Josh
