bdelma Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 No better way to spend a snowstorm than lighting a fire and watching the playoffs. Well....other than the Bills being in the playoffs of course... Man, wouldn't it be great if the Bills could play defense like the Ravens or Titans? The Bills aren't a tough team plain and simple.

BillsObserver Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 The defense has played better and the rushing game is a lot better than last year. That has nothing to do with Flacco. Harbaugh maybe. No denying they do it mostly with defense. But Flacco has no interceptions, no sacks in the playoffs. Give him some credit. He made some big throws. Harbaugh also has something to do with it. How about that challenge? Great challenge. But my point was, continuity is overrated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taterhill Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 It was after the 2 minute warning and would have to be an official review. I can't believe they didn't get review it, though. it was before Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree that Flacco hasn't made any killer mistakes. But with his defense playing the way it has, he hasn't had to take any chances. As for continuity, I'd rather have it than not. But not in the Bills' case, i.e. keeping Jauron for a 4th year with his track record. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KD in CA Posted January 11, 2009 Author Share Posted January 11, 2009 The Bills aren't a tough team plain and simple. Nope. Watching how hard those teams played and how many guys played their hearts out, it makes me realize that the Bills are a long way from being a contender. Nice to see the refs sh--ing the bed yet again on the delay of game no-call, but the Titans lost on the red zone turnovers. btw...I also thought Flacco stepped out in the back of the end zone.

BuffOrange Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 They showed the replay on the postgame show and he clearly stayed in bounds. Terribly gut-wrencher for the Titans (but how can you feel bad for them?). Nice job by Fisher of leaving time outs on the board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Titan fans must feel like crap after the regular season their team had. It was super bowl or bust for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsObserver Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 OK, Arizona/Carolina is ON. Carolina is the easy pick. Anyone have the balls to pick 'Zona? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsObserver Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 No, not even +10 ATS. Agreed. This is not the ideal start for the Cardinals. Hey, look - another small running back tearing it up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KD in CA Posted January 11, 2009 Author Share Posted January 11, 2009 No, not even +10 ATS. I'd say that's a good decision based on the first 3 minutes of the game. Yikes! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terribly gut-wrencher for the Titans (but how can you feel bad for them?). Nice job by Fisher of leaving time outs on the board. Bad decision throwing a 5 yard pass over the middle with 45 seconds left and 40 yards to cover. By the time they got the next snap and Collins threw INC they had burned half the remaining time. With 23 second left you've got about 4 snaps -- friggin stupid and you see it happen all the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffOrange Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 I mean it's great that they "proved the world wrong" after winning an undeserved home game in which they were a 1 pt underdog last week; but I don't like any team's chances when they pour gatorade on their coach after a wildcard game.

Yeah, they should've called time out on defense after the 1st down run before the FG too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True that. Silly me, I thought the Cardinals were going to respond with 7 points after that Fitzgerald catch, but then Kurt Warner takes a sack and puts them in 3rd and long.

How is it an undeserved home game? They won their division didn't they? Ergo they deserve a home game. Now if you want to talk about undeserved home games, how about USC at the Rose Bowl and Florida at the BCS Bowl in Miami Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
