Imagine if Diggs had dropped that TD pass, or Singletary fumbled every time he touched the ball! What would have happened if Josh had missed the bus!
This game was 3 TDs away from a 17-6 Packers Victory!
I was breathing a sigh of relief every time the Packers handed the ball off.
Sure it was frustrating to see some missed tackles, but watching the Packers have only 1 possession in the 3rd quarter was stress relieving.
We're talking about a Defensive scheme that allowed 10 points in the 2nd half... right?
I'm wondering if this has to do with Someone losing to Aaron Jones in fantasy...
Going up 24-7 was challenging GB to a shootout. The Bills defense was playing for a shoot out.
GB just said, "no thanks. I'm happy to just run out the clock and go home with a moral victory."
Makes perfect sense.
Even the announcers were confused why GB was running the Ball.
"never interrupt an enemy when he's making a mistake."
it also costs them 30 seconds a run vs a pass which stops the clock half the time.
They limited themselves to 3 possessions in the 2nd half while behind 3 scores.
The Bills were used to rushing the passer when got ahead, might be why they allowed big runs to happen.
Might need to watch that get exploited when the Bills are up by 3 scores...
Allow 7 yards a run bleeding off 30secs each time or allow 7 yards a pass with the clock stopping half the time...
It was quite obvious that the plan after the half was to prevent a blowout. The Packers wanted it to "look" close at the end.
I was wondering if calling the hot route, or the blitz is the job of Allen or part of the play scheme.
Allen actually reads the defense correctly and targets Diggs on the play. Most of the time, they assume 1v1 is a mismatch in Bills favor.
