Bills DC Dennis Thurman calls refs a ‘disgrace to the NFL’

It’s an offense that doesn’t work well out of third-and-longs, so if Buffalo can play good defense on first and second down they’ll be in good shape.

Santa Claus Is Coming to Town and You Could See When
EADS’ Battle Control Center (BCC) will monitor Santa constantly as he travels across the eastern USA delivering toys and gifts. So staff checked the radar for signs of Santa making his way south from the North Pole and gave kids updates on his location.

Bradford has become Eagles’ go-to man in the past eight games after being promoted to the starter.


Violence casts a pall over Christmas in Bethlehem
Annual festivities in the city’s Manger Square were not postponed or canceled due to the violence, the network reported . But vendors and hotel owners in the city have already complained of sagging business this Christmas season.

23-38, 247 yards, 1 touchdown, 1 interception (that wasn’t really an interception), and just one sack taken.


Warm temperatures carrying into Christmas Day
Many people are donning T-shirts instead of ugly Christmas sweaters, and lawn-mowers may even be rumbling instead of snow-blowers. In fact, the temperature on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day will be higher in New York City than in Los Angeles and Phoenix.

ABOUT THE EAGLES (5-7): McCoy’s departure and the money saved in the transaction aided in Philadelphia acquiring quarterback Sam Bradford from St. Louis one week later, coach Chip Kelly confirmed on Thursday.

Sabuda also blasted what he called “the epidemic of terrible officiating” that’s plagued the NFL, calling it “pathetic” that the country’s most profitable sports league pays up to $200,000 a year to guys who have other full-time jobs and simply moonlight as NFL officials.

With Ryan Mathews returning from a concussion, Murray’s playing time could shrink even more after playing just 14 snaps against New England.

But the knee has held up fine this season and Bradford’s play has continued to improve as he has gotten more comfortable with his teammates and Kelly’s offensive system. It was the seventh consecutive game in which McCoy went over 100 total yards but it wasn’t enough as the Bills fell to the Philadelphia Eagles by a final score of 23-20. Two teams that can look great one week and then stink up the stadium for two in a row following that. That’s it, Eagles win the trade. Washington survived when Robbie Gould missed a 50-yard field-goal attempt with 1:40 remaining. Good news on that drive: Rex Ryan finally won a challenge ¯/_(ツ)_/¯.

Later in the third, the Bills marched down the field and capped off the drive with just signed two weeks ago Mike Gillislee’s 19-yard touchdown run. All these words, so many losses, and they’re still pretty much in control of their own destiny in the NFC East. In the first quarter he was late to help Byron Maxwell on the Bills’ first touchdown of the game, a 47-yard bomb from Taylor to Sammy Watkins. Darren Sproles had a 28-yard punt return. It paid off with a 53-yard touchdown throw to Nelson Agholor. It didn’t appear to be Ryan, but it very well may have been defensive coordinator Dennis Thurman.
