    Oh boy, not a good sign....

  3. NFL Network actually hinted at the possibility of not playing the game; but then "Mooch" said winds will not stop a game from being played...

    I'm not sure who that favors though, the Pats have the passing game, but they can play alright in the shorter ball control dink and dunk game as well.

    The Bills have no Marshawn Lynch to run the ball with either.

    Should be fun, hopefully the Bills take care of the patsies..

    Trust me when I say that if the winds are 50 MPH the ball will not travel a good 5+ yards without being blown off course. Not to say no-one will complete a pass, but it is not going to be easy even to dink and dunk.

    I think it completely favors the Bills if both teams have to line up and power the ball forwards.

    Does the wind blow across the field or from end zone to end zone? If ti is end to end one the team that wins the coin toss will have a pretty big advantage as they will have the wind at their backs in the 4th.

    I want the Pats to win. I want the Jets to be demoralized knowing they can't win the division.

    Honestly I want them to bring it all and I want us to bring it all. I want the Pats to lose and I want the winner of a hard fought game to make the playoffs.

    I don't want to get in because another team felt bad about themselves.

    Anyone else watching this game? Buffalo just came up with a 13 yard punt. Weather is nuts.

    That punt was ridiculous. That's some powerful wind. This should favor the Bills. I think I've changed my mind and that I want to see New England eliminated. That would be satisfying.

    I want to see New England in the playoffs, but it's incredibly difficult for me to root for the Patriots. Like to the point where it makes me physically nauseous.

    Patsies could only manage 3 points with the wind behind their backs ... that's a pretty good sign if you're a Bills fan.

    I don't recall seeing a windy game like this before ... maybe I just don't have a good memory, but this is pretty insane to watch.

    Absolutely, put the stake into the vampire's heart when you have the chance.

    That FG try was absurd...Jauron should have known better.

    Buf D is putrid, zero tackling.....NE has this locked up simply by the 3 pts already put up.

    Man. Look at those goalposts.

    That's insane.
     
  20. OK, maintenance crew is on the field with ropes trying to "re-set" the goal post...
     
  21. NE's kick is NO GOOD!

    NE can't even make a 26 yard field goal.

    This may end up a 3-0 game.

    they bungle everything....they cant beat the JETS for a sure win @ 2 min left in game, and here they drive for trying FG vs. NE and fail to even attempt it cause they are busy pushing and shoving, let alone running the ball up the gut on 3rd down needing 4yrds with no time outs left and 22 sec @ snap.

    Fools.......

    The Zebras are working for the Patriots organization again...that play was dead and they never set the ball for the next play, they just blew the whistles and let the clock run out...

    Anyone who bets on NFL football should have their heads checked.:no:

    Why would you run the ball with no timeouts..spike it and kick the FG no? WHAT is Jauron doing?

    Why didn't they let Buffalo use a timeout? They whistled the play dead with 13 seconds left. Jackson was clearly down. I guess they'll do whatever it takes to help the Pats win.

    As far as I know they didn't have one.

    The problem to me is they didnt even try and spot the ball. They didnt even try to get the ball from Jackson. That's crap. If they hurry and spot it maybe the Bills can snap it quick and toss one to the endzone, or at least try to get the FG unit out for a quick snap.
