From Elias: The Bills are the first team since the 2007 Steelers to score a TD on every possession they had in the 2nd half. The last team to win a game when trailing at the half and then scoring a TD on every 2nd half possession was the 1996 Redskins, who trailed 13-10 at the Jets but scored a TD on all 3 2nd half possessions and won 31-16: |
The Raiders have scored 21 points in the first half against the Bills. Is the 3rd time since the start of last season in which they scored at least 21 1st-half points. From the 2007-09 seasons, the Raiders had no instances of scoring 21 1st-half points. |
