All: The new Billszone site with the updated software is scheduled to be turned on Tuesday, May 21, 2024. The company that built it, Dynascale, estimates a FOUR HOUR shut down, from 8pm Pacific, (5pm Eastern) while they get it up and running. Nobody will be able to post in any forum until they are done. Afterwards, you may need to do a web search for the site, as old links will not work, because the site is getting a new IP address. Please be patient. If there are bugs, we will tackle them one at a time. Remember the goal is to be up and running with no glitches by camp. Doing this now assures us of that, because it gives us all summer to get our ducks in a row. Thank you!
That is not a wasted timeout. You are far too hypercritical. It's the first half of the first game. Taking a timeout is not something that is bad there. It's not taking the timeout and getting screwed that would be the problem. In the second half different story.

how about this: having the D READY instead of WASTING a timeout with 12 min left in the half?
How many TO's has Bellicheck used? right, ZERO, because his team is well coached and organized.
chill out Op....even if our coaching staff isn't the best things like that happen
things like that happen ALL THE TIME since this staff took over. They shouldn't happen 18 minutes into the season. This has been a constant problem for this team and they still haven't fixed it.

Shut up the team has been playing decent don't kill it with micromanaged bs.

if you call penalties, blown kickoff coverages, dropped passes and wasted timeouts "micromanaging." The Bills could have added even more points if it wasn't for their own dumb mistakes.
And you can call it micromanaging all you want, but this team has had a problem with timeouts for 3 complete seasons and, so far, the first game of this season. I expect more from my team than 3+ seasons with the exact same problem. When people defend crap like this from the coaching staff, it's the embodiment of what I mean when I say Bills fans have accepted mediocrity.

still chill out...would you have rather we committed a turnover??

no- I'd rather we had the D ready so we didn't have to waste the timeout. There's a 3rd option between "turnover" and "timeout" (btw we were on D so I don't know how we would have committed a turnover)

Everything is never going to be perfect for any team. Relax and give them a break for a change.

they pull off a win tonight, I'll give them a break. Unless that happens, they haven't earned it and they deserve every ounce of criticism heaped on them.
Criticizing a team for using it's first timeout when it wants to be sure of its personnel on a big 3rd down play in a tight game is pretty much right up there with the most ridiculous criticisms I've ever heard.

no team plays a flawless game, be happy w/ our success so far while it lasts
1st timeout: When needed due to personnel, situation, etc.. (by offense or defense)
2nd timeout: By offense inside 2 minutes while driving to score.
3rd timeout: Before last play to set up field goal or TD play.
