Nice pass rush, and their cornerbacks matched up very well against Carolina's big receivers. Except for Green Bay, both teams are better than anything in the Central at this point (I always think wild card for the Bumbles, because we won't beat Green Bay). Nice picking Paul & Zepscoda ! Oh, you wont beat Green Bay? Care to revise that statement Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I simply don't know how you can be suspended for something that was investigated fully by law enforcement with the result of no charges being filed due to lack of evidence. Domestic violence is a very serious issue, and I'm very happy that the league is taking such an assertive stand against it (vis a vis, Ray Rice); however, to punish someone for a case that the law investigated and dropped is just surreal. If he was officially charged with a crime, suspend him all year. If he were found guilty of such a charge, suspend him for much longer - perhaps permanently. But, for crying out loud, doesn't "innocent until proven guilty" mean anything? I agree. But the league will get their way, eventually, imo.

Yes, and off that one performance he got signed to a big contract (I forget the team) and didn't even make it out of training camp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe that was when they drafted Wilson and took the job from Flynn in training camp. He also beat the Cowboys that same season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bong-Man Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 Great game last night......'er this morning ! I'm sorry, but I still think that 10 second run-off rule absolutely blows. Think about it....as a fan, would you ever want to watch a close playoff game and have it end that way after watching for 3 + hours ? A coach already has to feel paranoid about saving one for a possible review, injury, or just old-fashioned clock management. I don't know what the solution is, but what they're currently doing ain't it ! Couldn't understand why the Raiders weren't blitzing earlier. Smith was tearing them up anyway.

LedZeppfan1977 Posted October 22, 2017 Share Posted October 22, 2017 Strange that since the Rams and Cardinals are in London it starts at 1 pm EST. That means about 6 pm in England. They finally have a real game on their hands. A good game with good teams. If Fitzpatrick comes in vs the Bills it will not be the first time. We picked him off when he was a Jet to beat him. With this new rebuilt and better secondary, I am hoping we take them down. We should be able to run on them. So McCoy should have a decent day. But Tyrod needs to find receivers and I hear Jordan Matthews may be back sooner than expected. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And on Dwight Clark Day, no less. 😢 The Raiders are coming for ya! I must admit I am not taking the Raiders lightly and I am in fact scared of this game. They will feel like its 10 am probably so a benefit for us depending on when they fly in. Buffalo is always tough to beat at home. The defense was not as dominating as I expected yesterday but sometimes the bye week can work against teams in some ways. I am really disappointed in the effort of Atlanta last night. I expect the Chargers to be a potential upset for New England. I doubt they will be up for them. They are a hot team are the Chargers. And I expect Rivers to eat up that lousy secondary like Ryan did not. Atlanta tried to run too often. The Chargers will throw. The Raiders were a playoff team last year and when Carr went down it was doom. They now have him back and only an exceptional Buffalo defense makes me think we can win this. I am really surprised Miami is 4-2 and they go to Baltimore who are having big problems. So they can get to 5-2. New England has two teams breathing down their necks for a change. And when they come to Buffalo Brady will not find it so easy to score on us like in the past. We simply must stop Gronkowski, the Buffalo native. Shut him down and that is the key. He IS, their offense. Steelers at Lions and that is prime time. I will never understand Pittsburgh. I hope the Lions beat them and I am picking them. They can beat them. Minnesota has a cake walk as they are at Cleveland. The Browns better make their next draft count. It is really bad for the NFL that Cleveland has been bad this long. Once a very good and proud franchise. Growing up back when they had Leroy Kelly they were one of the best teams in football. But their fans have had the Cavs and Indians to ease their pain. Well maybe not so much the Indians. Tonight I have a feeling the Redskins will be right in this game. .They usually give the Eagles hell. How about that tying drive for the Bills yesterday. 3 play drive for the TD. Bam. Then the number one D in the NFL forces a turnover and a W. Go Bills!!!! And Go Rams too! If there were any doubts about the Rams I think they were erased yesterday Looking ahead. Thanksgiving games look good. The Bills are in New England on Xmas Eve, a full schedule on that day. The Raiders must play in Philly on Xmas Day. I guess they will get a white Xmas? Man that has to suck. 3000 mile from home on Xmas day and Eve because you you have to fly in days ahead.
