Yet Allen still had 353 yards and 3 TDs.

@Mikey
How many of those yards were passing yards and not rushing the ball like Henry.

@igotnopicks
All of them? Passing the balls is what QBs are supposed to do, rushing will only get you so far.

@Mikey
Yeah no, a QB can run the ball too. Josh Allen is a scrambler sometimes and I did see a QB Sneak stop by the Titans that decided the game.

@igotnopicks
Passing is the main thing, sometimes you can run but most of the time you’ll be handing it off to your actual runner or throwing to your wide outs.
And he’s not a scrambler, he’s gotten better than even last season.
And that only happened because the Titan’s usually crummy defense showed up and we decided to go for it instead of letting it go into OT.

@Mikey
Yeah not going FG and doing a QB Sneak cost the Bills the game.

Then again OT does do something to decide games and Bills could have lost OT.

@igotnopicks
That and the stupid holding call, he could have made that without the holding. Like seriously.

The Titans could have as well.

@Mikey
Holding calls are stupid. But I understand that one. The Ref was in the right position to throw the flag and he saw it. And there are always holding calls on every play. Don’t believe me go check the O line out for every team.

I understand going for it. But making it a QB Sneak is not a good play. It means that one your OL can’t protect your QB for long. And judging by what I saw the OL wasn’t good on that play in particular and two your QB has to push Josh Allen didn’t push enough it seems. Something like Tom Brady and Jimmy G can do with their OL is push the line and move the ball down a yard.

@igotnopicks
That’s because Brady is a veteran and knows what he’s doing while Allen is still only in his 4th year.

@Mikey
And what about Jimmy G? He had to learn it from Brady.

@igotnopicks
Mathematically, going for it was the right call. With the Titans’ offense firing on all cylinders, OT would be a literal coin flip, and the Bills had a better chance of punching in the touchdown and winning the game then and there.

But the playcall and execution were… eh. From the overhead angle, it looked like Allen fell straight down once he had the snap. And even if they pick up the first, they’re looking at another goal line stand. Might have been better to make a play for the end zone.

And part of it comes down to personnel. For all the Bills’ strengths, they don’t really have a star running back, someone who can smash through the line like the Kool-Aid Man when you absolutely need a short gain.

NBA season starts up tomorrow.

I’m not a big fan of sports organizations that kowtow to oppressive regimes with human rights abuses a mile long.

@Background Human
Mathmatically yeah I get it but also that’s a chip shot FG.

As someone who’s an Atlanta Braves fan, I can’t believe I’m actually gonna get to see them play in the World Series. I’m so happy.

@Holofan4life
The cheaters vs. the Chop. This is Rob Manfred’s nightmare scenario.

@Holofan4life
Congrats Dodgers on dodging another World Series.

Dude. What the fuck happened to Kansas City?

@Mikey
I’m guessing tiredness or Mahomes is tryigng to hard to be the Hero.

Sooo whos a ManU fan around these parts >:)

Now the Dolphins of 1972 can drink their glasses of champaign.

Holy shit. Braves are actually going to do this.

The 49ers won this week and Jimmy G. Seemed like his old self in the game too. Now this is what I want to see.

BRAVES JUST HIT A GRAND SLAM!

Buccaneers injure Jameis Winston.

And Karma called Tom Brady threw an game winning interception to end the game.

@Holofan4life
And then they Barved it away.

My Bengals just lost to the friggin’ Jets, so… you have my sympathies.
