I think that the Bills got hosed by the officials in their game against the Titans. I am prepared to give up the non fair catch touchdown overturn, even though by the letter of the law it should have been a touchdown. On the Texan scoring drive during OT, there was clearly a delay of game that was not called as seen here: . The worst part is that the play was reviewed! How do you miss that in review? Finally the blindside block call in overtime was bs. The Bills lineman got in the defenders way and did not take a shot at him. Yes his forearm did touch him, but come on, does he have to act like he is trying to take a charge in basketball? If common sense applies on the non TD it should apply here too.

Unfortunately, no one cares about either of these teams. And no one will be watching either of them after next weekend either so...

Not even close to delay of game. Official looks at clock to zero then looks at ball, if it is snapped, no delay. So, it’s zero clock plus a partial second. This has been explained by ref supervisors a thousand times.

Should have been a Buffalo TD on that kickoff, if you toss the ball away anywhere else on the field before the whistle is blown it’s considered a fumble. If you want a touchback you should have to take a knee.

Another thing I don’t understood is why they blow the play dead in college as soon as the ball hits the ground in the end zone on kickoffs, it should be a live ball and be eligible to be recovered by the kicking team since it traveled more than 10 yards like an onside kick.

There was enough time for me to see it in live play. There was a full second between it hitting 0 and the Texans snapping the ball

Maybe Buffalo shouldn't have been playing 20 yards off the receivers on key 3rd downs.

On the contrary I would rather read about the Buffalo game than try to wade through 5 pages of conversation about old cars.

Maybe tackling Deshawn Watson when he’s got third and long and is in the grasp of two D linemen would help. Just saying...
