Opinion: Capaccio: Arrow Up/Arrow Down: Vikings at Bills

‘The Bills led 27-23 at the two minute warning and the Vikings faced a 4th and 18 from their own 27 with only one timeout left. Kirk Cousins threw deep to Justin Jefferson. Cam Lewis was in position to make the play and all he had to do was knock the ball down and the game would have most likely been over. But instead he tried to catch it, and Jefferson snatched it away. 32 yard gain. First down at the Bills 41.’

Second half struggles continue in Bills heartbreaking OT loss to Minnesota

‘The Bills have struggled in the red zone and coming into the game they scored touchdowns on 53.57% of their trips inside the 20, ranked 19th in the NFL. The Bills went just 3-6 in the red zone against the Vikings. To make things worse, the Bills have now turned the ball over in the red zone in five straight games, they did it twice in this game as Josh Allen was picked off by Patrick Peterson two times.’

4 Observations: The Bills head-scratching loss

‘Red Zone failures – The offense has been abysmal inside the 20 yard line this season. They scored touchdowns on their first two trips inside the Red Zone, but reverted back to what we’ve seen most of the season, going 1-for-their-last-4 with 2 interceptions. This season, the Bills have scored touchdowns on 54% of their red zone trips that ranks 19th in the NFL. They are even worse at home. The Bills are ranked 27th in the NFL, scoring touchdowns on 46% of their trips inside the 20 yard line.’

Carucci Take 2: Bizarre Bills loss follows bizarre week of Josh Allen elbow drama

‘It doesn’t supplant “13 Seconds,” because that came in a playoff loss. Still, what happened here Sunday had every bit as much of the snatching-defeat-from-the-jaws of victory feel as when the Bills allowed the Kansas City Chiefs to drive for a tying field goal to force OT, during which the Chiefs would score the winning touchdown in last January’s divisional-round playoff game.’

Bills Suffer Crushing 33-30 OT Loss to Vikings

‘What we hoped was an anomaly is now becoming worrisome, with Allen throwing two red zone interceptions in the 4th quarter and overtime that essentially cost the Bills the game. Allen now has thrown 4 red zone int’s in the past two weeks.’

Josh being Josh fails Bills in loss to Vikings

‘When you have a quarterback that plays by the seat of his pants all the time, who plays a large dose of reckless abandon, it’s going to burn you sometimes. Allen is so immensely talented and works so incredibly hard that can look wild and out of control, but still have success. This time being wild and out of control was just that. And it got his team beat.’

Allen commits 3 turnovers, Bills lose 2nd straight

‘The fans at Highmark Stadium caught the game of the day. And for a while, it looked as if the Bills might wrap everything up. Buffalo led Minnesota, 27-10, with 1:51 to play in the third quarter.’

‘It played like a broken record on Sunday. Buffalo was doing a lot of good things on offense, but once again turnovers compromised the performance. For the fifth time in their last six games the Bills had at least two turnovers. On Sunday their giveaway total reached four and it not only cost them valuable points, and gift-wrapped points for the Vikings, it also cost them a game they should have won.’
