Wild Card Weekend(Sat)

I honestly believed the refs made up some **** on that review. I do not believe you can use a timeout to allow the review. Then he looked at it gave ut to the Colts and made **** up about the review being triggered from the booth. That was cleary a fumble. In that scenario you could use a timeout to look at any close play and then challenge. To me the timeout acts like a subsequent snap.
 
The bad news is that the crowd in Buffalo is definitely big enough to give the Bills a home advantage.

If the Steelers advance, it's going to be tough to win there.

The Bills secondary is vulnerable, but the Steelers did not do much against it a month ago.
 
Their use of timeouts really killed the Colts. Wow that had the ball with over 2:00 needing 3 to tie... SMH.

They wasted about 20 seconds after one play as well. Limited themselves to the sideline and Rivers arm is so weak they didn't stand a chance at that point.

They got the ball on the 14 with well over 2 minutes to go and were under a minute just over the thirty... they ate clock on themselves
 
Assuming a win tomorrow night, and that's certainly not a given, Buffalo is not a juggernaut.

Colts beat themselves, Moss was carted off the field and if Allen keeps running someone will eventually clean his clock.
 
Instant replay in the NFL is f...ing ridiculous........ can't make a call that can be seen in real time.........

Indy had their chance to walk away with a win today .......... and between coaching decisions, timeout usage and Rivers throwing the ball away when you need to pick up some positive yards on that final drive......they screwed themselves

This is exactly why I asked why are they reviewing it? Either red flag or booth trigger. Booth didn’t trigger the review at the time it occurred. Maybe it’s because the clock was running and they can’t review from booth stopping the clock.

Not true... empty stadiums have noise pumped in at 70 decibels... 10000 fans aren’t enough to get much louder than that
The record for a stadium is 147 decibels measured at the bottom of the seating area... midfield that is going to be significantly lower but still really loud..
It’s probably a boost, but they aren’t going to deafen the players...
 
Crowd clearly didn't bother Indianapolis' offense today.
 
I caught the last few snaps of that game. It sure sounded like Buffalo's last time out was called after the ball was snapped. Was I hearing things? It was an incomplete pass as far as I could tell but what if it was indeed called after the snap and was a catch.

I turned the game on when they were in mid-review. So IND ran a play after the questionable call and then a time out was called? That's BS from what I remember unless they changed the rules which is a definite possibility. Once you run a play, I thought the past was history and there was no chance for a review.
 
These next couple of games might be painful with scrub QBs starting for the Rams and Football Team.

HA! I did not even know the REDSKINS even made it into the playoffs. Goes to show how much I follow this **** anymore. :)

They definitely have to be sure because you provide a free timeout. But I still say the timeout got called and I don't believe you can have the review then.
 
4 if you count inexplicably going for 2 when they should have just kicked the extra point.

A point that they basically got back with a successful 2 point conversion after the next touchdown. But I see your point. There were a few, let's call them bizarre coaching decisions.
 
shame that Wolford got knocked out. Goff sucks. I think LA was going to win this game with Wolford and a wide open playbook. It shows you have a problem when your starter means you have to narrow your playbook.
 
Colt should have won, but their 2min clock management was dogshit. Also they shouldn't have been awarded possession after that review. That was a fumble pure and simple. Also goes to show you the importance of having 1 TO under 2min on offense. Worst play in that series, huddling up after a short gain and burning 25sec...

Great defensive game with LA vs SEA. I'm surprised no one has jumped our WR screen the way LA just did to DK.
