Does the offense stall again? Or do they keep it up and go down the field for the touchdown and the win? :scratch: :feedback:

I say we barely and slowly bring it down to the 20 yard line and Lindell misses a last second 37 yarder and we lose.

I'd bet my annual salary that Drew gets sacked and fumbles the ball.

I'd say it would have come down to 4th and 13th with Drew throwing a horrible pick and then he rips his chin-strap off in disgust.

McGahee comes in and breaks one for 47 yards.













Only to be called back for Offensive holding.

Gee Cincy just nailed a 48 yd FG. Oh yeah back to the topic. Drew gets sacked at the Oakland 35 after 3rd down at the 25, and Lindell kicks it wide. We lose.

If Baker wasn't such a ******* we may have found out. However, Buffalo still would have managed to lose the game!

I the bills recovered the on side kick .


Drew Bledsoe would've scrambled down field for a TD. Nuff Said.

Bledsoe throws a crossing pattern to Evans, who the coaches just discovered is on the team, and he runs away from the secondary for a game winning TD a la Peerless Price vs. Minnesota a couple years ago. After the game Mularkey says it's too bad he hadn't heard of Evans earlier because they could have used him.

Canadian'eh!

i've never seen so many pessimistic fans....

i think they would ahve gone downfield to Moulds and gotten either a completion or pass interference.

they's be in 40+ FG range.. get too conservative. run the ball once or twice with Henry going for about 3 yards.

then the game would be in lindells hands :nervous:

So, Rashad Baker...a undrafted rookie screwed the team over twice? Hmmm....

First he get's beat for that TD, then he misses the onside kick. :shakeno: :mad:

Is there a lesson here? Don't start a freaking undrafted rookie in the 2nd game. He is not ready yet! :mad:

The truth is, the only way we were getting the onside kick is if Baker can pick it up in mid-air.

Had that happened, if I'm not mistaken, there was basically NOONE between him and six points.

I didn't think you could advance an onsides kick unless it was touched.

Yeah you can. Do you remember a game a few years back when almost an indentical onside kick as the Oakland game. Henry Jones grabbed it out of mid air and was gone for a TD.

You guys are right. If that ball was 6 inches lower Baker would have had it and been in the endzone. Oh well :mad:

Henry Jones was on the receiving team. The kicking team can't advance it.

yeah...wasn't it about 3 feet over his outstretched hand????

Try like an inch above his fingertips. He saw the Raiders coming and took a dive because he didn't want to get smacked.

no he wasn't about to get hit at all... just timed his jump wrong.

It looked to me that it wasn't so much too high for him, but rather he mis-timed his jump, plus it seemed to take a wicked bounce from his left high over his right shoulder.

He actually had some of his fingers on the ball.

It didn't look to me like the best effort in the world.

when you say effort do you mean he wasn't trying? I can hardly believe a guy trying to prove himself wouldn't give 100% to make a HUGE play.

Either that or he never saw the ball.

nah... he just mistimed his jump a half second too late and couldn't get high enough to get it... i'm surehe wanted it badly... i bet he's thinking about it right now.

Right, and so was Baker

No, Baker was on the kicking team. This isn't complicated. The receiving team is the one set up to receive the kick, the kicking team is the one kicking the kick.
