PLAYOFFS: Divisional Round Games

[GatorAZ]

He had control with feet down in bounds.

Put it this way. If that's in play and not out of bounds it's a catch. So why should the sideline change that?

That’s incomplete whether it’s the endzone or not.

He means if you make the catch with 2 feet inbounds like he did, and then "drop it" like he did in the picture, and you do in bounds, it is a catch and has been called that way.

Catch =/= completing the process. You can’t drop a ball without catching it first. Science 101.

Catch rules have been changed and say the Dez catch and Megatron is a catch in todays world, not back then. And very similar plays have definitely ruled catches in bounds while not fully completing the catch.

It's just the idea is that there will never be a definitive rule of what a catch is because it changes and used subjectively.

Dez and Megatron completed the process of the catch then lost the ball on their own accord. Chase got the ball stripped out of his hands as his body went down.

He had possession after the strip with 2 feet in bounds. I know he loses possession, but that's been called a catch this year recently, in bounds.

This

The problem is that it's left to the interpretation of the officials

“Left up to the officials” = a method for referees to screw an underdog in a postseason game.

Every time Cincy doesn’t wrap up Allen something really good happens for Buffalo.

They've been close many times

Allen is a big guy and has quite the pocket awareness

It's sad.

K1 is more physically talented than Hurts but Hurts is more mentality talented.

Bottom line - Hurts is BY FAR the better player and its not even close.

I would like to see what Shane Steichen could do with K1.

Respectfully disagree. Has Hurts played better THIS year? Undeniably yes. But, that has more to do with circumstances & the team around him. The Eagles organization built a team around his skills. They have an IDENTITY. Did the Cardinal team even attempt to do that for Murray. Absolutely not. If they switched teams, Murray would look like the star, and Hurts would struggle big time. Hurts drops back & literally has all day to survey the field. Until this year, he struggled mightily because he was under more pressure. If he saw the pressure that Murray consistently has seen for 4 years, he might be a backup. Coaching & the Organization you play for has a TON to do with how much success a QB has in the NFL. The Cardinals have done no favors for Kyler Murray in that respect. Hoping that MO is successful in developing an identity for this organization, because if he doesn’t, it won’t matter who our QB is. We’ll be the same old Cardinals, mostly losers, with very short term stretches of moderate success. But no SB’s to speak of.

Bills are in problems....

 

[Dayman]

Being able to grind out yards with a RB makes such a huge difference.

Mixon is really good and gets the extra yards

 

[DVontel]

Zac Taylor is Kliff Kingsbury tho right guys? lol

 

[Dayman]

Mixon is really good and gets the extra yards

Conversely, Buffalo's RBs have combined for 10 carries in a snow game with Allen struggling.

 

[blindseyed]

Mixon is really good and gets the extra yards

Yep, look at KCs Pacheco and the Bills Singletary (not so much today), all play off RBs that just perform, of course McCaffrey goes without saying lol

 

[PACardsFan]

Cincinnati is basically giving Roger the middle finger right now.

Exactly why I put a fair amount of money on Cincy to win the SB when all that came down.

 

[BullheadCardFan]

Bengals back up by 14

 

[DVontel]

Buffalo missing that ALPHA pass-rusher

Another reason to go Will Anderson

 

[blindseyed]

Bills are really gonna need to dig now, not sure if they came get out of this hole

 

[wit3card]

so 1 competitive game till now in this divisional round ....


Bllls can't seem to make this interesting 2 scores is ... not out of reach but ... steep.

 

[BullheadCardFan]

3 and out for the Bills

Last pass was barely knocked out by the DB

 

[GatorAZ]

Zac Taylor is Kliff Kingsbury tho right guys? lol

The question is who is Kliff Kingsbury with Joe Burrow and who’s Zac Taylor with Kyler Murray.

I would agree, they can't stop the run properly and can't crush the passing lanes consistantly and keep burrow in check.

This game is probably over now.

Yep, looking like it's getting too far outta hand for them to mount a comeback
