As questionable as that DPI was, the INT earlier was far worse.

Not really.  It was a crappy situation for Buffalo, I admit, but they got bent over by the way the NFL has chosen to write and implement enforcement of the rules.  Same way the Rams got screwed multiple times last season by that same bit, same way the Saints got screwed in their game against us last year.  The refs are told to call the turnover on the field when it's even questionable because turnovers are automatically reviewed.  The issue there is that it then puts the onus of review on proving that it wasn't a turnover with indisputable proof rather than proving it actually was a turnover.  Possession requires two feet inbounds (or the equivalent) and a football move, the first part of Kroft to contact the ground was his butt and that was after Johnson had contesting possession as well.  Had it been ruled completed and the receiver down and challenged, there wasn't indisputable proof to show that Johnson had possessed the ball before or had wrestled it away from Kroft before Kroft's butt hit the ground, just as there wasn't to show that he did.

Should it have been "confrimed," no.  Should it have been upheld because of the crappy circumstance that's been in place for more than a season now?  Absolutely.

That run game though! You guys shoved that ball down the middle of our D, where our alleged strength is supposed to be.

Henderson has great vision in the ZBS and is very explosive. I was surprised we didn't use him more in the passing game. I think he's going to be pretty special in this scheme. This is a dude who ran for over 3000 yards over his final two seasons in college and averaged 8.9 yards per carry. He's got some Jamaal Charles to his game. And yeah, this OL can run block. Complete turnaround from last year on the OL.

Can't disagree with that.

Its a real shame that Foles sucks and all that.

He's kinda thrown 5 TDs today 

  • 1st was stolen out of his receivers hands
  • 2nd was bounced on the turf on 4th down
  • 3rd was a great play by the WR
  • 4th and 5th were just really nice throws

Imagine what he could do if he was a real QB.
