    When this one's over...

    they'll point to the decision to go for it on 4th by Jauron as the turning point of the game.

    Football rule #1: Whether on the road, or in the playoffs...TAKE THE POINTS.

    Jauron's testosterone got the best of him there.

    I think it was a good move, we try to bury our opponent by field position or score. I couldn't stand the 36 yards line punts last year, no guts no glory.

      I disagree completely, Billsology. 10 points vs 13 points is not significant.

        You take the points.

        You may not get down there again.

        It was a Mularkey-esque move, and if the Bills lose by 3 or less, this one's on him.

        Not to mention the momentum shift.

          He was taking a shot to end the game. It was the right thing to do.

            No, a Mularkey-esque move would have been to run a reverse in that situation.

                You traded three points for a failed attempt at first down.

                How long have you been watching the game of football?

                  It was simply the wrong call. It should have been a qb keeper.

                    Going for it on 4h down gave the momentum back to the pats, instead of making them earn it

                          I agree with that. I loved the call, but i hated the play.

                            You called it. When you have a chance to go up 13 on the road, you have to do it.

                              I agree. I didn't not like the call.

                              Not to mention if you are stopped, the momentum kills you.

                              Jauron did a bunch of good things today. The team was ready. The defense, with 4 rookies in the line-up did better than could be expected.

                              But that call was bad.
