Dick Jauron shouldn't have tried to call the throwback kick-off as a way to stick it in Wade's face in Buffalo. What a sorry way to kiss up to owner Ralph "I Didn't Fire Him, He Quit" Wilson.

RIDICULOUS.

No Mercy on Lil' "No-Goal-Sabres & Wide-Wherever-Scott-Norwood" Crybaby Fans beacuse their head coach and owner are a couple of classless jerks.

Because of that 1 play, I wish failure on their season.

It's funny you mentioned that, because I thought about that later on in the game after the network showed highlights of the Bills/Titans.......I couldn't believe the Bills were going to attempt it on last night.....I was also expecting them to kick and onside

It looked like the primary returner had a read call on it. If he saw the right numbers he had the OK to throw it - or call it off and run if the numbers looked bad. Parrish, I believe was jumping up and down for the ball.
You don't typically don't see (in the NFL) taking away 1 blocker to try to use a diversion - if they hadn't actually called it. It's just too risky to give up a blocker - the other returner in this scenario. Therfore, IMO, the call was made.
Disrespectful, and lacking class.

Just a blast from the past ...

Which forumite was the one who coined the term ...


HEY LADY!! THAT'S MY DICK JAURON.

I thought that was the funniest line ever.

I dont think it was classless. They were trying to win the game.

They tried to a version of the music city miracle on the boys during a kick return? Do I have this right?

Yeah. After Dallas scores their 1st touchdown. McGee fields the ball Parrish and a blocker run off to the left. He's jumping up and down calling for the ball. McGee stalls - turns his shoulder as if he is thinking of throwing, but he doesn't and runs on. I felt that it's a read/option by the fileding returner.

You mean like calling the fake punt? I doubt very much they were trying to shove any thing in any ones face. They knew they would need to pull out all stops to beat us.

I'd agree with this, except I was suggesting we try the same thing earlier in the week. I'm classless, too, though, which most of you know by now.

God Bless message boards, eh? It takes all kinds in this world...

I respect your opinion, I just felt that if they wanted to run another fake, trick play or whatever, there's probably another one - not so specific to the former Bills' Head Coach's history that could have been called, if in fact, the trick play in question called had nothing to with who was on the Dallas sidelines as head coach at all.

I can see your argument, but in my opinion, this was not coincidental at all.

No I have no problem with a fake punt or a reverse run on a kickoff. This had "intent to poke fun" written all over it.
