I have to lay the blame on Levy. Taking a 12-10 halftime lead the Bills Knew the Giants game plan: grind out the game, and play 8 in pass coverage daring the Bills to run. The last drive of the 1st half and opening drive of the 2nd half were the ball game. Getting out scored 14-0 was the difference. (3:43-0:25 2nd qtr) (15:00-5:31 3rd Qtr) 12:47 of dead time is an eternity in football. Add in a 7:32 drive in the 4th for the Gmen and God only knows what might have been. These 3 drives accounted for 23:37 in game clock.
This being said look at who we were up against: Parcells, Belichick, & Coughlin. Not too shabby that Marv & Co. almost won.
