Penalties

[jamze132]

Committing too many penalties will be this team's nemesis this year. It's needs to get fixed. Disciplined teams are successful.

14 called. 11 accepted

Re: Penalties

It's mostly the OL. The call on Clay was absolute BS and the personal foul after the int was never shown on TV so I have to wonder what actually happened. And the running into the kicker call was garbage too.

The roughing the QB call on the slide was the correct call but it was also a weird situation where Luck faked a slide, kept going and eventually slid. The defender got caught in no man's land where he either had to risk giving Luck more yards or risk the penalty. I don't see too many situations like that happening again.

But holding and false starts are drive killers and it needs to stop.

Re: Penalties

Ton of phantom calls last week. Half the penalties called didn't even provide a player number who supposedly committed the foul.

Maybe this shot on Whalen at the end. Penalty was on Hughes but can't tell who this is.

Re: Penalties

Were the Jets a high penalized team while Rex was coach? I always think penalties are a reflection of coaching.

Re: Penalties

Wednesday is usually the day the refs contact the team and go through each penalty called against them the week prior, right? I would imagine we'll hear something at some point from somebody about how that went. Rex already talked a bit about how that call went in the preseason at least once, so I'm hopeful that we'll get that kind of transparency all season long.

Also, is the NFL still doing All-22? If so, we can learn more from someone doing the legwork using it.

And you think this will change against the Patriots because....?

Walt Coleman isn't working the game. That's a start...

Mostly middle of the road under Sexy Rexy. The Bills had two good years under Gailey, not that it helped with their record.

Season: Jets, Bills (low good, high bad)
2014: 17th, 31st (Marrone)
2013: 23rd, 25th (Marrone)
2012: 3rd, 22th (Gailey,Fewell)
2011: 18th, 7th (Gailey)
2010: 18th, 6th (Gailey)
2009: 13th, 26th (Jauron)

Re: Penalties

The penalties in the second half were to keep the Colts in the game. I just rewatched the game and super slo moed the forced fumble on the 10 yard line where the ball went out of bounds at the 30, frame by frame. They called facemask on the Bills. There wasn't one Bills player that had their hand even close to any Colts players face.

Re: Penalties

Hughes is good for at least 2 a game. Like the guy but he's sometimes a loose cannon.

It looked to me like Robinson's head got jerked around just before the ball popped out. I'm out of town so I'll take a look at it again tonight. No video online that I can see.

Re: Penalties

bs calls or not, the bills responded positively. 1st and 25's became 2nd and 9's. The penalties weren't drive killers.

i agree, avoid putting yourself there. but if it happens, move to the next play and make it a non-issue.

as for the pats, they get all the bizarre calls; i expect nothing different.

There was absolutely no penalty on the Darby INT on the All-22. Unless it happened after the whistle. The Bills have been getting flagged for 15 yard penalties on big INT and fumble recoveries all last season. Since it's such a chaotic play and you never get to see the replay of what happens way down field, it tells me it's one where the refs may feel like they have more liberty to stick it a team.
