Heels20X6 Posted September 21, 2008 Posted September 21, 2008 Can't remember who was calling the game with Dan Fouts but they were attrocious at times with their love of JaMarcus Russell. And when he threw the TD to Higgns, idiot play-by-play guy said: "and that ends the game" or something to that effect. He didn't say "should" or "could" he said it with finality. Good to see our Bills made him eat crow on national TV.
drnykterstein Posted September 21, 2008 Posted September 21, 2008 at the bar I was at, everyone said the game was over at that point. us Bills fans said it wasn't.

Corp000085 Posted September 21, 2008 Posted September 21, 2008 Fouts..... with Criqui in agreement? Figures... he never finished a game while he was playing either...
Alaska Darin Posted September 21, 2008 Posted September 21, 2008 Fouts..... with Criqui in agreement? It was actually Criqui but he quickly qualified it. And it was hard to blame him for the attitude given the situation.
KYBillsFan Posted September 21, 2008 Posted September 21, 2008 They also kept reiterating that 9 points meant it was a 2-score game. Are there really that many casual fans who are THAT casual?
Dan Posted September 21, 2008 Posted September 21, 2008 I gotta admit... in year's past that would have been game over for the Bills, and I thought it was. It's soooooo nice to have this team prove me wrong. They have a ton of heart and it shows on the field.
Spiderweb Posted September 21, 2008 Posted September 21, 2008 What bothered me a bit more was Fouts continually saying Buffalo should play for the Field Goal on the drive that got the Bills to within 2 points at 23-21. Thank God they went for the score......

Thank God they went for the score...... Now you know why Fouts never got a SB ring.... Yeah, I'm going there.
Spiderweb Posted September 21, 2008 Posted September 21, 2008 Now you know why Fouts never got a SB ring.... Yeah, I'm going there. Fouts was not good today....then maybe he's never that good anyway.
Heels20X6 Posted September 21, 2008 Author Posted September 21, 2008 Fouts was not good today....then maybe he's never that good anyway. He should stick to shilling hair colouring products for his beard...
Lofton80 Posted September 21, 2008 Posted September 21, 2008 I liked Criqui at the last field goal excitely saying "the Raiders are rushing everyone here". Game ending field goat attempt seemed a little obvious.

Thank God they went for the score...... That was such a stupid statement, especaially since it is hader to score a TD than a FG so if the team is clicking, why would you suggest to kick a FG on first down?

Thank God they went for the score...... yeash but then when Criqui asked him if the bills should go for the FG he said no they should keep moving cuz Edwards is hot.---So he makes the suggestion then he said it was the wrong thing to do.... Fouts was an alltime great QB and about a D or D+ as an announcer. At least he is less annoying than Dan Dierdorf.
MRW Posted September 21, 2008 Posted September 21, 2008 That was such a stupid statement, especaially since it is hader to score a TD than a FG so if the team is clicking, why would you suggest to kick a FG on first down? Yeah, when you have a first down at the opponent's 15, down by two scores, I don't think there's a single coach at any level that would elect to kick a field goal. Hell, you could bring in the swim coach and he'd tell you to go for the touchdown. Maybe Fouts was just showing why he never got into coaching.
BuffOrange Posted September 21, 2008 Posted September 21, 2008 What bothered me a bit more was Fouts continually saying Buffalo should play for the Field Goal on the drive that got the Bills to within 2 points at 23-21. Thank God they went for the score...... He is surprisingly dumb for a HOF QB. With 2:15 left and the ball at midfield down by only 2 - is the clock really your enemy at that point? "They need to hurry up and run another play here!". Really Dan? Why?

Andrew in CA Posted September 21, 2008 Posted September 21, 2008 He is surprisingly dumb for a HOF QB. With 2:15 left and the ball at midfield down by only 2 - is the clock really your enemy at that point? "They need to hurry up and run another play here!". Really Dan? Why? I was thinking the same thing at the time- Fouts, are you watching the same game I am?

Thank God they went for the score...... I didnt agree with it but I cant understand why he said it, Bills only had one timeout and there wasnt a lot of time left...if the Bills kick and made the FG it would have been a one score game and would have saved them time on the clock...again I didnt agree with it but I understand what he was saying his point was you save time by kicking the FG there
