At what point do NFL teams ditch the prevent defense and realize that giving up 15-20 yards a pop and letting them get out of bounds when a team has no timeouts just doesn’t work.  To the contrary, the other team even had plenty of time to win the game.  Bills should have learned the lesson in their playoff loss to KC, and yet teams continue to get burned with that philosophy.

To be fair that is Donatell's scheme most of the time which I can't stand.

This team showed a ton of toughness today. Offense made a ton of mistakes from KOC on down but overcame them, D came up with some big plays when they had to have them.

Need to be on the lookout for a kicker, 4 extra point misses already is a problem.

You expected this, @Wilbur?! ;) Wild and entertaining game. Skol!

That was your prototypical:

Do everything to get behind a good team, rally, claw back into the game, miss a kick, get kicked in the nuts, miracle fumble, ohh now we call pass interference?, overtime, blow it from the 2, watch Allen run forever, Patrick Peterson you beauty....., game.  

Been a Viking fan for 39 years so I know how this all ends.  But it's fun for the time being. :lol:

Yep, Vikings game to a T! Not ever for the faint of hearts. Gonna ride until the end cause at this point we are all use to the disappointment so anything more is just gravy. :)

so the bills had 12 men on the field when the vikes had first and goal from the 2 after jj's nice catch with a few minutes left.....in this day and age why is nfl relying on the eyes of 75 year old guys to count to 12....each player has some sort of sensor on them....more than 12 on the field the line judge gets a buzz or something in his pocket and boom flag...

Wouldn't have been a good look for the NFL if the Bills had won and they had two huge bad calls, including the no catch by Buffalo's receiver.  That should have been reviewed.

Zimmer ball.  "We need to establish the run."

Getting into obvious passing downs against a good defense.....

Could get ugly....

Ugly first half. 20-3 with 1:43 to go. Be nice to get some more points on the board before half
