And I think it was the great John Madden who did clue us all in on the fact that the team with the higher score wins the game. Repeatedly clued us in.
yeah, but he forgets that only works in overtime - like tonight. He forgets about the first sixty. If you look at the averages, it’s always the team leading at then end of the fourth quarter that pulls it out.
Random football thought: The NFC North has 2 dome teams. What a waste. If anyone in the AFC North built a dome, they’d be laughed out of the division.
Its a waste of some perfectly good football in the snow!
Nine games out from the end of the season, it surely is a technicality, and one barely worth mentioning at all.
At this point in the season, all it means is that if the Bills and the Pats were to both go 9-0 the rest of the way, the Bills would win on the tiebreaker. But since that can’t happen, it doesn’t even mean that.
Yes. The tie-breaker is only applied at the end of the season.
And then immediately following that, KC, with no timeouts left, does a running play with about 1:35 left. For some reason, Norv Turner calls a timeout. The announcers praise his savviness with the time clock. KC decides to take advantage of Turners willingness to let them try to score and start airing the ball out, gaining 30 or so yards in no time at all. The announcers waste no time reversing their stance and calling Turner’s time out a mistake.
Epic news. Future hall of famer Brian Robiskie has been cut.
Or as someone on the browns board put it “Robiskie finally manages to get seperation”
The announcers were doing that all night long.
“I’m tired of these challenges, let refs know what they are doing, let them do their job and trust their calls.”
Five minutes later…
"I don’t know what the refs are doing. That call was dead wrong. They should challenge that.
That is very eloquent!
