** The NFL is on in London - Jags at Bills ** (-5.5, 48.5) 9:30/6:30am Kickoff...NFLN Broadcast (1 Viewer)

Explain the reasoning?

Away from their routine, distractions, etc.

People act like the Bills were jetlagged. It's a five hour flight.

This game isn't in Malaysia

Also the Bills could have flown over on Monday if they wanted. Pretty sure they can afford the hotel.

I mean that sounds to me like someone who's never gone to England.

And not the reality of what happened either:

WATFORD — Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen said on Friday that he barely slept on the team’s flight to London late Thursday night.

The current NFL MVP betting favorite looked whipped after a Friday walk-through at The Grove - a luxury hotel and spa - where the team is staying ahead of Sunday’s game. Allen said that though he’s not a big coffee drinker, he turned to the drink to combat exhaustion after landing.

30 seconds to Gabe Davis time

This is the only part I agree with. Much like playing in Denver, I'd go as quickly as I could to have as long to adjust. Which is why I think Jags have an advantage.

but… but … they PUSHED him in!!!!!

Eagles fans ***** because people complain about the play. But bring it up more often than anyone else

Classic

 

[ProstheticRGK]

Shoulda thrown to Gabe Davis.

Poor Bills- Jax tried to hand them this game.

 

[Grigs Allmoon]

Another F up by Cook. Oh well.

[renesauz]

I think one team having back to back games overseas and another having to fly in is very inappropriate scheduling. And I'd say that if the Bills had won. I would raise holy hell if I was an owner and my team was scheduled like that.

funny....LOT of talking heads thought it was a disadvantage to the Jaguars.

Explain the reasoning?

time away from home, distractions available in a town like London

 

[karl.Racki]

Hopefully McDermott rips the NFL at his post game..

 

[ProstheticRGK]

No waiting for the 10:00 games! Thanks NFL, for horrible international games!

Don’t bother, he’s on a roll

 

[The Duff Man]

In my opinion the scheduling wasn’t a factor in this game. For some reason Allen has a mental collapse against some teams, the Jags and Jets top the list.

Then against others, he is super human. I think I heard yesterday in the last 11 games against Miami he has been offensive player of the week 5 times

He lost to the Jags 9-6 last time he played them, and was garbage today until it was too late to matter.

 

[SoBeDad]

The loss of Milano and others may have played a role, 29 FDs and 474 total yards.

 

[GregR]

Jacksonville's ball because they were the last to touch it before it went out?

Does this crew know anything about football?

What the ref said is fine there. The ball went out of bounds. So it is either receiving team's ball (if they touched it last) or a penalty (if no one touched it or if the kicking team touched it last).

He let you know who touched it last, and the outcome based on that.

 

[Ilov80s]

ETN!

@Ilov80s

That’s my guy. Glad my patience paid off. People liked Najee more and they liked Pitts more. Pitts may eventually get there but I think it’s pretty clear ETN was one of the special players in that draft class.

Does being a grown man that cries about everything on a fake football message board ever get old ? I would think it would feel kinda weird…

As many defensive players the Bills lost to injury, you would think the primary blame goes there, but it doesn’t IMO. This loss is on the offense. They played awful until it was too late. I didn’t get a chance to watch it, but it seems like there were issues with the O-line. They couldn’t run worth crap. Wonder if the losses on defense made Josh feel like he had to do more. It’s clear every time he comes into a game thinking he needs to shoulder everything because he plays tight and terrible.

The biggest thing from this game though will be finding out about the injuries to Milano and Jones. Knee and pec injuries can easily be season enders. If the Buffalo defense loses both of those guys after losing White, their Super Bowl chances take a massive hit.

It’s cathartic, and it keeps my tear ducts well lubricated. I have the tear ducts of an 8-year-old.

Uhh... No. It's not a penalty if the Bills touched it last. And, it would obviously still have been the Jags' ball.

That's a MASSIVE understatement.

The delay in responding at first was looking it up to confirm that yes it is a penalty

ARTICLE 3. FREE KICK OUT OF BOUNDS. The kicking team may not kick the ball out of bounds or be the last to touch the
ball before it goes out of bounds between the goal lines. If the receiving team is the last to touch the ball before it goes out of
bounds, the receiving team puts the ball in play at the inbounds spot.
Penalty: For a kickoff out of bounds: The receiving team may elect to take possession of the ball 25 yards from the
spot of the kick or at the out-of-bounds spot.
