Refs get a lot of crap but both Allen plays were great spots

Man I know Allen is great but I kick the FG and go to OT in that scenario. That's a game if the Bills win they are sitting VERY good to be the #1 seed in the AFC. Still can but now they're closer the pack with teams like Baltimore and LA.
I can see both ways. If you lose the coin flip though in OT you might not ever get the ball. Think Titans had scored points like on 5 straight drives.
Hindsight 20/20. The only reason I maybe think about kicking is there wasn't much time left even if they got the first down, but they would've been at the 2 yard line. Best offense in the NFL and you've been moving the ball well all night, I absolutely go for it every time there and the analytics back it up.
I loved the call for the win at the time and still maintain they probably do get it if Allen doesn't fall over at the snap. Bad time for a fluke event to happen.

Not surprised one bit by this.
Man, how fast did the shine come off Tua's apple? This was a guy teams were being accused of tanking for. And now...
I might trade more for Tua right now that Watson.
Tua has been okay and still has really only had a year of play in the NFL and still is only 23 years old.

Watson's only 26. And he's a proven commodity at QB vs Tua who is mostly just potential at this point, and dwindling potential at that.
Watson's legal issues complicate things, but even if he gets suspended for an entire season, you've still got a 27 year old franchise QB, which is still an incredibly valuable asset.
I suppose I don't equate 22 allegations of sexual misconduct/harrassment with only 1 year suspension. That is probably where we differ.
Also, Tua has played in 12 career games. He hasn't been as good as Watson was at this point in Watson's career, but he also doesn't have the same contract cost that Watson has (though Stafford just went for two 1sts with his contract anyway).

You guys know this is the NFL we're talking about, right? If you think the league is going to suspend him for much longer than a year, you have not been paying attention to past incidents.
Also, I guarantee you that Miami isn't going to give up multiple 1st round picks (if that's what they indeed do give up) without having an idea of when he's going to be available.
A small often injured QB who threw to wide open receivers in college... I'm shocked he's a bust
