The turning point....

[OpIv37]

... was Andy Levitre's false start penalty.

At the time, the Bills were up 3-0 and were running the ball down the Pats' throats. But being in 1st and 15 takes the run off the table. Bills go 3 and out, Moorman muffs the punt. /game

It's amazing how a 5 yard penalty can have so much impact.

Re: The turning point....

Fitz's fumble probably swung the game more. Or even Johnson's brainfart by not dragging his second foot in the endzone during the first "touchdown."

Turning point of the game is going to be halftime adjustments. We are going to make it a game in 2nd half.

Re: The turning point....

Fitz's stupid decision with the fotball and subsequent fumble while in the red zone on a nice drive was much more destructive to this game. Easily took points off the board. Maybe 7.

Re: The turning point....

It would not have made a difference. They are a much better team than us and would have shown that regardless of that false start.

The turning point was in 2000, unfortunately.

The penalties have really killed drives. Unfortunately, the lack of penalties on NE has managed to sustain drives for them.

Superjoint Ritual had a nice little song called "The Turning Point". Of course it takes a superjoint to watch the Bills today.

If we can't overcome a simple 5 yard penalty early in the game we deserve to get our asses handed to us.

Re: The turning point....

I would say the turning point was Gailey giving up on the run too early. Jackson was running wild in that first drive.

I disagree. i think the turning point was on feb 4, 1993.. or whatever day we fired Bill Polian.

The turning point was when the Patriots plane got into Buffalo before the blizzard hit.
