Large plays wouldn’t have been necessary. There was 1:30 or whatever remaining. The Bills had timeouts , and would only need a FG as time expired for the win. I doubt the Bills would “ play for the OT” in that situation. Imagine for a second thinking -great the Bills tied the game and only left 1:30 for Mahomes to get the win. We’re going to OT for sure! Thats absurd and so is thinking OT or even a loss was going to be inevitable.
