    Who else was going nuts when we punted on 4th and 5 with 2:34 left?

    Wow. I was ready to write Jauron off forever when he did this. I can't believe it paid off.

    It was a good move psychologically too for the team. He showed confidence in the "D" that they could stop the Texans, and he showed confidence that the "O" could score with less than two minutes left.

        Yep, I went nuts.

        Even though it worked out, I still think that was the wrong call.

          I honestly didn't believe that the Offense would convert a 4&5.... and I wasn't positive that our D would step up and get the ball back to us.

              I would have gone for it there.

                We had 2 time outs plus the 2 minute warning. It was not a bad call.

                What was a bad call was the Texans throwing it on 3rd and 2 when they had been running it down our throats all day. That was the bad call.

                  considering the way they'd been running all over us all day, many of us had concerns about our defense stopping them

                    Maybe the Colts and Pats games would have turned out differently if the D could have gotten the ball back!!!

                      When you say "we" and "us" all the time, who do you mean? Are there other people there?

                          I thoought the call sucked.


                          Just keep me out of your "We"- you don't speak for me. If that means I'm not part of your "collective Bills nation" so be it.

                          Thanks

                            Not me. It was the right call.
