    You are correct, I was mistaken.  This might change the chance of making it somewhat (bear in mind, in the filed of play 3rd & 1 means anything < 36", so although he converts  "3rd & 1" at about 90%, it usually requires making < 1 full yard.)  But my point is the call per se, I think is dubious, but defendable; taking the TO after it failed was outright a mistake.

    Probably.  But by the time they unraveled the pile another 15 seconds at least would run before a spike and they would be down to 45 seconds or so.  Basically, they went all in on the sneak working.  But your point is fair.

    They DID get a yard.  Problem is they needed about 4.5 feet!

    Based on my math, it was a poor call.  But...depending on your guess at Utility Function, your decision may vary.  What was EGREGIOUSLY stupid was calling the time out.  Had we have waited til they had the ball, it likely would've saved 20-30 seconds.  Just enough (if we got the ball back) to have a chance of scoring.

     

    p.s. Based on JA's response & how he said it, I don't think he was happy w/ the call & it was made by someone above him, be it Brady or Mcdufus.

    How do you figure.  It was PI in end zone.  On the 1, not the 1 1/2.  And the rest of this on Allen is just people projecting.  We lost, it's

    Cowherd's rant about the Bills wasting Josh Allen's talent was depressing. 

     

    Mahomes is 14-2 in games he puts up 400+ total yards, Allen is 4-5. 

     

    The Chiefs are 10-0 in one score games this year, with 15 straight wins in one score games. Meanwhile, the Bills are 5-6.

     

    It's obvious the Chiefs aren't just "lucky," they've figured out how to win when it matters. The Bills still can't figure it out. 

    Neither have most other teams but the horseshoe Chiefs.

    Not with respect to points-  but with respect to every other aspect. Look at the box score. We had 22 more passing yards on 7 more attempts  They were better in every other category. If you believe points are the only way to determine which offense was better- good for you.  I know for a fact that that’s not true.  

    We did score much faster than the Rams.  No need to argue, I get your point.

    It was an underthrown pass to a wide open WR that gave the rams the opportunity to block the punt.  Josh hits that throw-  we win- crucial plays play play a significant role in games.  The rams had 72 plays, controlled the ball for 38.5 minutes and had a more balanced offense.  Nacua was uncoverable when they needed him most all game.

     

    The Rams had more yards and were 11/15 on 3rd down conversions.  Winning on 3rd downs-  usually wins the game imo.  They dominated on 3rd downs. Made big plays.  We missed a couple that we needed.  

    Scoring more points wins games imo.

    The standard needed to be better today with the Rams offense absolutely executing at an elite level. Not saying the Bills offense wasn't super productive overall. I AM saying that the margin for error was miniscule, and they faltered JUST enough to fall short. (It ain't fair, no doubt.)

     

     

    Stats do NOT capture the complexities and nuances of a complete NFL game. Allen was monstrously productive today. Such an elite stat line. But he also missed some glaring plays that could have changed the outcome. Simple and cruel evaluation.  

     

    Bills offense outscored Rams offense 42-37.  Just sayin'.

    The rams were the worst team in the league on 3rd down.  Their offense absolutely abused Buffalo on third downs all game.  Inexcusable 

    They have a lot of talent and had their A game today.  If you don't think their offense was executing at an extremely high level, I don't know what to tell you.  Stafford Nacua and Kupp were all outstanding.

    Well, then our coaches choked again. Is anybody surprised? Should have been 3 straight passes to burn minimal clock. Or at least Allen rolling out with a run/pass choice.

    Why oh why are you so sure the Bills would have gotten a 3 and out if they scored with a minute left and three timeouts.  Given the Rams aggressiveness and the Bills utter inability to stop their offense all day, the likelihood that saving that time out would have made a difference is highly unlikely at best.  Get real.
