    Challenge question

    As I strained my eyes to watch the smallest tv screen in the bar, where moulds '8' looked like Henry's '2' and so on...I heard several people (who were sitting closer) yelling for GW to challenge a play. Which he didn't. I couldn't see what happened, but there was 3 change left in the (I think) 3rd quarter. Can anybody tell me what that challenge might have been?

      Are you talking about the fumble by Henry in the first half that resulted in the first Denver TD? If so, his knee was not down...there was nothing to challange.

        I don't remember. Of the challengeable calls made the entire game, I don't think any were reversible. I hope that helps.

          It wasn't in the 1st half, it was the 3rd or 4th qtr. It was something that GW should have challenge, but didn't. There were Pat's fans, Vikings fans & Miami fans all yelling about it.

          BTW, they all picked Buffalo in the pool, so that might have something to do with the yelling...but then again, they all saw it!

          Damn this sucks, I'll have to invest in a dish just so I can watch my 27" at home!

            I wish I could help you, MyBills. Unfortunately, I find it hard to pay close attention to one game at a bar when there are other games going on. I was distracted several times by the stupid, freaking Redskins game. lol I think I missed whatever you're talking about. Sorry.


            There's not a stone in my heart I've left unturned
            Not a piece of my soul that I ain't searched
            The only answer I found for all this hurt
            Is there ain't not answer here on earth

              I don't recall anything objectionable occurring at that point of the game that was open to challenge.
              Argue like hell. Keep it clean. And when it's over, shake hands and root for our team!

                Maybe a first down spot?


                Sounds like a bunch of drunk armchair coaches to me. The ones who scream "Why didn't they run the ball?" after every incomplete pass and "why are they running?" after every 2 yard rush

                  I hear ya...this is why I'm not sure if it was the end of the 3rd or the 4th! My Giants were playing on another tv too, and I thought I was going to get whip lash!

                  I hope somebody taped it, and can answer my question later on. All I know for sure is, that there was 3:51 or something, left on the clock. And only because I heard someone say it!

                    BTW- what bar do you watch the games in in Rhody? My mom was born & raised in Pawtucket and I still have family there

                      the only other play i could think of was also in the first half...when Bryson was short of the 1st down they could have called for a measurement...

                        Doz - it's in Warwick, a place called On The Roch's...Roch's being the owners last name.

                        Eb - I think it WAS something like you and Dozer are saying. But I know it was in the 2nd half.

                        This is going to bug me, so I think I'll stop in after school Weds. night, and ask one of those people who were yelling!

                          If you are certain of the time of game, check out the BillsZone front page- we have a play by play breakdown. Might help you out.

                            I checked that out Dozer and it didn't make sense. But, I just saw that Miami fan tonight, and she confirmed that it was indeed the 3rd qt. Also, that if GW had challenged that unchallenged call, it would have given Bills the extra time needed at the end, instead of the onside kick. I didn't get into it other than that...scary-okie night...the subject was changed by the off key singer!
