.....aaaaand the no flag on the HEAD BUTT WITH A HELMET. More to come, I can bet my house on it.

[Mr. Cynical]

...aaaaand another BS call against Gilmore. Turning this game off.

[Mr. Cynical]

Clearly the NFL wants Manning to be on more than Orton, so the refs are going to continue these BS calls. There is zero argument here and I don't care about "good teams overcome bad calls". Show me a team that has gotten more bad calls than the Bills and I'll change my mind.

[BertSquirtgum]

NFL is fixed. They have an agenda and the refs make that agenda happen.

[Mr. Cynical]

NFL is fixed. They have an agenda and the refs make that agenda happen.

Seriously...there is no debate here...it is FACT. Put it this way, is it any different with other consumer product business? They all try to spin things in their favor to make more money, so why should the NFL be any different? They make more when the golden boys (manning, brady, etc.) are on the field vs no names. Simple math.

[YardRat]

Too frustrating

Jackson shouldn't even be in the game after the headbutt

no but they did not throw a flag with a flagrant head butt. You can't be ****ing serious with this post. I rarely complain about refs but today is god awfully atrocious.

So the refs don't have to take personal responsibility for their mistakes but the Bills do. Wtf?

If the Bills **** up it doesn't affect the refs at all. If the refs **** up, it can really have a negative effect on the Bills (and it has). The refs are the ones never held responsible.

[Mr. Cynical]

No, they didn't. No one said they did. Are you denying that:

a) the call on Robey, was a third down play and would have forced a punt, but led to a 1 and goal, was MAJOR?
b) the non-call on the head butt with a helmet, which would have made it 1st and 10, MAJOR?
c) the interference call on Gilmore, which again was a third down play, was MAJOR? (hughes got the flag because there was a fight due to the hit, which drew a flag as well, but we don't know if he was at fault...my guess given the other calls, it probably wasn't)
d) holding call on a 60 yd return, MAJOR?

So let's talk about those four CRITICAL GAME CHANGING calls, vs, the one drive they didn't capitalize on, which did NOT swing the momentum or give the ball to Manning in scoring position.

That was such a pus$y slide. That's what career .500 QB's do.

[CoolBreeze]

Been saying it since San Diego. The refs are the NFLs only way to slide favor towards certain teams. Too many moving parts for them to full on rig it. So they use the refs. This game it's been painfully obvious.

[kscdogbillsfan1221]

You're a stupid mother ****er if you think this isn't a complete home job.

And youre a stupid f"""ing hypocrite as someone who always says 'wah wah. Look at me. Thisbgeneration is weak and has no idea how to fend for itself.' Etc etc if you think everyone is out to get us. Look. I'm not pleased with the refs but to blame them completely is ignorant lazy and stupid

[Meathead]

holding on the return was legit but the other three calls/non-calls were unreal wrong. and all three on key third downs

i am not a referee complainer but this has been the worst season ive ever seen for bad officiating. game after game this year, bad calls all over the place

i wish there was something to do in protest but it wouldnt make any difference, the game has never been as popular and even a boycott would get zero attention

super ****ing frustrating being a football fan this season. and it certainly has altered this game unfairly in favor of the peytons

[Novacane]

I thought Gilmore got there early. Pretty stupid on his part. Just let Sanders catch it and tackle for no gain. The rest of the calls were bull ****. How is it not a penalty when you headbutt a guy who lost his helmet?

[Thurmal]

I would love to hear all the "blaming officials is for losers" morons explain to me how this team is supposed to beat a superior opponent on the road when every ****ing call is going against them. You are a dumbass if you don't think there is an agenda by the NFL and officiating to orchestrate games for favorable outcomes. They'll make sure the AFC Championship is Brady vs. Manning even if they have to ruin the integrity of the league to do so.

[Mr. Cynical]

This is as accurate a statement as the sun rises in the east and sets in the west. Indisputable.

[kscdogbillsfan1221]

Yup. The refs just made the Broncos pick off our pass and the refs also made the Broncos march down the field first possession of the second half

[Mr. Cynical]

Yup. The refs just made the Broncos pick off our pass and the refs also made the Broncos march down the field first possession of the second half

Right. And I'm sure there was NO psychological effect of having 4 bad calls go against them. Or any change in gameplanning when your team is down vs being even or up.

[Thurmal]

Exactly. The defense knows no matter how well they play, they have no chance to win b/c Denver will get bailed out on every 3rd down they don't convert.

Now watch how, when the game is out of reach, Denver will get called for a bunch of minor flags so the penalties per team looks even in the stat book. Textbook NFL.

Yep. :(

I turned it off. Couldn't watch anymore live. Still following the game updates tho as it's less painful. Gotta ask now - on the Gilmore interception just now (3rd quarter) there was a 15 yd penalty. What was it and was it yet another BS call?

Somebody ought to check that head official's (62 is it?) pockets for Denver cash before he leaves the stadium! That scumbag seems crooked as anything. Those poor penalties had a big impact on this game.

[pmoon6]

They basically gave Denver 11 points while continually stopping our drives and negating any interception returns.

Total home job.

My only wish when it became obvious that it was rigged was to send as many Broncos off the field injured.

War of attrition and we physically beat their ass.

What BS this game was. I've never seen momentum killed so many times in my life. The game was so poorly called it's a joke. We should have won today. We were playing a top 5 team, not to mention shooting ourselves in the foot at times. On top of all that the last thing we needed was a handful of terrible garbage calls. Destroyed all momentum and field position. We should have won and been talking playoff right now at this time. Just awful

I would say the same thing if Buffalo was the recipient of their charity.

However, I do agree with your opinion about responsibility and the current state of affairs in this country.

P.S. I apologize for the insult. I generally like your posts.

[BuffaloRedleg]

I will never buy season tickets again until this ****ing **** stops. 2 free touchdowns to Denver. Why would I ever pay money for this.

Rage Rage Rage Rage.

The NFL just sucks me the **** in every year and it is a total bull**** candy league. These ****ing refs. So much rage.

[Mr. Cynical]

THE BOTTOM LINE: Until the Bills get a sexy, elite QB* that the NFL can promote in commercials, online ads, cereal boxes, etc., the Bills will never, never, ever, ever be on the other end of this bull*** biased system. End of story.

*See Manning, Rodgers, Brady, Luck

EDIT: I can GUARANTEE that when Brady is out of NE, and if they don't get another elite QB, the LOVE FEST will DIE. 100% guaranteed.

I'm with Meat...I've been following this league for almost 45 years, and I've seen a **** ton of bad calls in a lot of games, but I can't remember at any time such consistency in piss-poor officiating that really affects the outcomes of the games as bad as this season.

[BuffaloRedleg]

I was on the 50 yard line today. I understand the frustration with the refs. I really do. But I truly feel we were outplayed today

Well us watching on TV saw the game much better than you did.

We were absolutely not outplayed in this game. Denver is certainly a better team and can win even without handily outplaying the other team, but Denver looked like absolute **** this game. I'm sure on the Denver forums if they are anything like Bills fans they are all flipping out about how they didn't deserve to win.

They were literally handed 2 touchdowns. I'm not saying there is a conspiracy or something, but I think it is completely reasonable that good QBs and popular teams just get the calls. Refs are people too and they are clearly psychologically affected. Wait until you go see the replays of this game. Unreal dude. Unreal.

The Bills defense was absolutely outstanding in this game and the illegal contact and the personal foul on Gilmore were just un****ing real. 2 free touchdowns are complete game changers, I don't care who you are or how good your team is. Kudos to the Bills D for not losing their mojo.

[YardRat]

I still haven't seen any footage of the penalties called on the int returns.

[Ginger Vitis]

I still haven't seen any footage of the penalties called on the int returns.

That is what I said to my buddy on the Gilmore INT.." Are the going to show a replay of the Graham penalty"? And they never did

[Meathead]

so i havent bothered to look but have we seen replays on the pi to know if it really was early or not? id be interested to know if my in-game fuming was right or wrong on that one

[pmoon6]

I have the game recorded, so I will review those plays when I have time. The networks also use the tactic of not showing replay of questionable calls, so the research may be inconclusive.

However, if you don't know that some games are engineered by now, I don't know what to tell you.

[Meathead]

its being reported that gilmore was early on the pi, which turns that from a horrible call to a horrible mistake by gilmore

still a terribly called game but looks like they didnt blow that one at least

[pmoon6]

its being reported that gilmore was early on the pi, which turns that from a horrible call to a horrible mistake by gilmore

If you've noticed, you will always draw a flag for a violent hit whether it's legal or not.

The officials have to protect the poor, overpaid punks on offense especially if they play for the Patriots, Broncos, etc...

Like I've said, it's the NFL, a kinder, gentler version of the real gridiron.

[Cleve]

I also heard that Mario Williams was being constantly held during the game - no penalties. I guess holding is a-ok with the officials if it helps protect an aging, fragile, but highly marketable QB, and sets up the post-season matches the NFL prefers.

[Mahdi]

Gilmore got there early. He got caught up in the intensity of the game instead of catching the ball instead.

The penalties on the returns and on the illegal contact on Roby were pure BS though. Those 3 calls were huge in the game.

Agree completely on Gilmore. The robey thing is crap and obviously did nothing to impede welker from catching the but if I recall correctly I think that's now a penalty. Touching within 5 yards?
Unfortunately this is the new nfl. You can't touch anybody ever. It's dumb
as for the return penalties. I thought The first was possibly legit. The second was complete horse crap

[Novacane]

Gilmores PI was really close but I think he got there just a fraction to early. Regardless they are going to call that play because of how hard Gimore hit Sanders.

Theres bad calls in all games. It just seems like its multiplied because bills offense is so bad and defense is undisiplined. Bills got away with a hanfull of non calls in that game.
Blatant holding by Glenn a few late hits ob by Williams

[don137]

Gilmore got there a tad early however I recall Denver DB getting there a tad early on almost the exact type of pass but the Denver guy was not in as good position to put in such a hard hit. No call was made.

It would not of surprised me at all that if Denver came out in Bills uniforms and the Bills players came out in Denver uniforms that the team wearing the Broncos jersey would of won. Until the game was decided EVERY time Buffalo had a good play it was negated by penalty.

[Mr. Pink]

I figured the call on Gilmore was going to be for laying out a defenseless receiver and was shocked when he got hit with PI.

It was a bang bang play on the timing so I don't know if he got there a fraction of a second early, as the ball got there or a fraction of a second after.

What boggles my mind is they kept showing that play but never showed whatever Hughes did on the play to draw an unsportsmanlike foul penalty.

Those aren't as bad in my opinion as replays of that stuff, league wide, is rarely shown.

It's the fact that they kept showing the Gilmore hit over and over and over and never once said anything about Hughes or showed what he even did.

For the record that defenseless receiver stuff annoys me, even though I know it's about protecting the players and avoiding another Daryl Stingley incident, since I used to enjoy watch guys like Steve Atwater and Eric Turner absolutely lay the lumber on a receiver across the middle.

Yeah, I've gotta agree with Mahdi...it's been pretty much SOP for a looooong time to show a replay of a penalty that wipes out a long return.

[Mr. Cynical]

The reason they didn't show it is because Goodell called NBC and said, don't show it. How else are the refs going to make sure it's a Brady-Manning AFC Championship?
