I had no problem with the play calling after we went up by 2 scores.  Of course, that play where Allen stumbled after taking the snap had my heart in my throat.. 😬

it was that 3rd down sack that ruined it

 

run the ball there take time off and make the FG and its a 17 pt lead and game over. we don't worry about recovering the onside kick for the 3rd straight week in a row.

I would argue that going for the knockout blow today actually let the Raiders back in the game.  

 

And you would be right. From the moment it went 23-16 though I never felt the game was in danger.

This is not college. They played a 2-1 team on the road and won, beating the spread. The defense has not been “shut down” but if you watch any other NFL games, it isn’t bad either.

even when the Raiders were driving, at the Bills' 35?

 

Yea. Even before the Norman play. I didn't think they could stop us and I was confident we could at least hold them to a FG.

Before the Raiders final TD, the defense had locked it down pretty well, because the previous four drives were punt, fumble, punt, fumble. Defenses around the league are out of sorts right now, just seems to be taking a bit more time than usual to find a groove. Hopefully this performance gives the defense some confidence and they can keep it up going forward. I wonder if McDermott took over play calling or at least had some direct orders for Frazier.

 

Also, they can go ahead and call Zo now.

I would actually say the opposite this time.

 

The bills should have went more conservative after they stopped the raiders on 4th down.

 

Run the balk 3 times, kick the field goal and go up 17, and the game is over.

I agree, go for the juggler, if that doesn't work try to take out the fool or the jester.

 

Hahaha thats funny. When trusting autocorrect goes wrong.

It’s league wide though. Goes hand in hand with bad defense. 
Browns were killing Dallas today. Pressure non stop.Until the 4th quarter.  Yet Dallas creeped back in. 
 

It’s a trend for a lot of teams. This season is not normal. Leave the virus stuff out of it. 
Defenses are off their games, refs are allowing more stuff to be uncalled, seems to be less emphasis on run games across the league, it’s just a weird start. 

Not having the 12th man I think might be playing a small part in a very competitive 4 game start to the NFL season IMO.

 

Leads seem a little tougher to hold for much of the NFL this season IMO.

Yeah that’s why I’m not as concerned. 
Lot of strong defensive teams aren’t looking good just like us. Last season defenses were dominating the first few weeks. Pats and ravens were pitching ridiculous defensive numbers
