it is a direct result of the coaches not having confidence in drew throwing it in the endzone or taking a sack..

unbelieveable call.

Surprise, surprise, I actually get the Bills game on television today! I missed most of the first half because I was outside enjoying the weather, but I came in to watch the last 3 minutes of the quarter. I agree with you, Tatonka. What a crappy call! At least throw the ball one more time into the endzone. If it's incomplete, the clock stops and if it's caught.....7 points and TOUCHDOWN! To willingly settle for a 3 point field goal is asinine, IMHO! HORRIBLE DECISION! :down:

No, it is a function of the coaches overthinking the game. Trick plays, DB's on offense, Reverses, Fake FG's, what is this a ****ING circus??

You have the wind at your back... RUN the ball, and use Play Action!

I blame this game, so far, squarely on the offensive playcalling!

the plays have been outstaning IMO. For the first time this year we are seeing Drew go through a full read, then looking at moulds and having a decent outlet and still getting good yards. That last play it was a player who lined up wrong I would not be surprised.
