It happened again. The Bills managed to snatch defeat from the jaws of
victory. All they had to do was keep the ball moving and kill the clock. They had done that successfully all afternoon... but failed to do it at the most crucial moment.
This team cannot play a complete game. Against San Francisco and Miami, the defense played well enough to keep the team in the game but the offense was useless. Against the Jets, the offense played well for most of the game but the D didn't show up. Once it came down to crunch time, the D finally tightened up while JP Losman became a human turnover machine.
And now, rumors abound that Dick Jauron has been extended. Another Sunday ends with the Bills losing while the rest of the AFCE wins, and to top it off Bills fans now have guaranteed mediocrity for several more years.
The Good:
-Bryan Scott and Terrence McGee played well on D.
-The OL did well in run blocking and pass protection (except for Peters on a couple of plays).
-Marshawn Lynch is the only premier player this team has.
-Josh Reed played well (more on that later)
-Steve Johnson looks promising
-Schouman blocks well. Fine had a great catch then carried three guys with him at the end of it. Royal had a drop. Don't let the door hit you in the ass on the way out, Robert.
-With the exception of one big return by Washington, Special Teams put on a clinic.
-For the first time this season, the Bills managed to save their time outs and use them effectively in the last two minutes of each half.
