    Why did Bledsoe call 2 TO's in 2nd half?

    I am curious if anything was mentioned as to why Drew called the two timeouts in the 3rd quarter. One I believe was 3rd and short and the other was 4th and goal at the 2...I can't help but wonder if KG called for pass plays in both situations and Drew didn't like the call and called TO. Did any player or a coach talk about it in the post game press conference?

    Also, did anybody mntion who accepted the holding penalty with under a minute left in the game?

    Because he's an idiot QB. That's why! It's not like the crowd was quiet for the Bills offense or anything like that. Nope, nothing like that.

          Drew Bledsoe makes Rob Johnson look like a smart QB.

              It does make you think that the song three blind mice was named after KG, GW and DB...

                GW said they called that 2nd TO to discuss going for it, then saw that the ball was spotted on the 2 yd line, not the 1 yd line like they originally thought. Once they saw the spot they decided to kick. Great way to waste 2 TOs though. On a FG they could have kicked if they hadn't called the first TO.

                The reporters were really digging into GW hard in the post-game interview. Van Miller and Murph must have said "That's unbelievablably bad" about 10 different times during the radio broadcast describing the play calling.

                The stupid friggin ref said that someone had accepted the penalty. But it wasn't the Def Captain - Fletcher or GW, just "somebody". Hell it could have been a Texan shouting it out. It was an obvious situation when the Bills would decline a penalty. Would it have made a difference - NO. But idiot refs should be pointed out and fined by the NFL.

                If GW had any balls he would have called his players to the sideline and refused to take the field for that play until the ref agreed the penalty was declined.

                  That 4th and 2 was on Williams, not Bledsoe. Anyone at the game not seeing that wasn't paying any attention.
