So if I hit on 18 in blackjack against a dealer 6, and I pull a 3, was it the right decision?

 

Of course not. That's why McDermott punted.   ? But on a personal note, I've been at tables with guys who do that crap and it makes me insane. 

 

Seriously though, if that's the analogy, this is a 16 against a face card.  I think it was the right call and so did McDermott.  Does it look bad if the Bills lose?  Of course.  Does it look bad if Tolbert slips and loses 3 yards on 4th and 1?  Sure.  No clear cut decision but I'm willing to bet the math was pretty close to 50/50 there.

TOP 5 GRADES:

 

RB LeSean McCoy88.9 overall grade

LB Preston Brown83.4 overall grade

Jordan Poyer82.4 overall grade

LB Matt Milano81.2 overall grade

Micah Hyde80.4 overall grade

PERFORMANCES OF NOTE:

RB LESEAN MCCOY88.9 OVERALL GRADE

McCoy took over the game towards the end of the second quarter and became a one-man offense for the Bills against the Colts. His offensive line struggled to move defenders around in the snow as he averaged just 0.56 yards before contact. However, McCoy averaged 4.31 yards after contact and broke eight tackles on his 32 carries, including one forced missed tackle on his game-winning touchdown in overtime.

QB NATHAN PETERMAN75.7 OVERALL GRADE

Despite the conditions, Peterman had a solid game before exiting the contest with an apparent injury. While he attempted just nine passes, the Buffalo quarterback was on target with all of his attempts only to see his receivers drop three passes in the snowy weather and the Colts defenders break up a fourth one. Peterman also showed poise and good accuracy on the last drive of the first half, which ended in an eight-yard touchdown pass to Kelvin Benjamin.

LB PRESTON BROWN83.4 OVERALL GRADE

Over the course of the game, we saw offensive linemen struggle to stay on their feet at the second level, which isn’t overly surprising given the conditions. This left linebackers free to make plays, and that’s exactly what Brown did. He racked up six tackles, all of them resulting in a defensive stop on the play.

JORDAN POYER82.4 OVERALL GRADE

Poyer is enjoying a career year in Buffalo, and that continued with another solid performance today. Obviously with the snow making life difficult for the opposing offense, not much was asked of him in coverage, but he still made an imapct there and against the run, with all three of his tackles resulting in a defensive stop.

The rest of your post is moot because it hinges on what is left to be determined.

Buffalo 13-7 (OT) over Indianapolis

IND.png Colts: C

The fact that the Colts scored any points in this game was basically a miracle considering the blizzard-like conditions. Even though the Colts lost in Buffalo, Frank Gore should probably win some sort of award this week for what he was asked to do on Sunday. Gore, 34, carried the ball 36 times for 130 yards, which has never been done before by a player his age. Since the AFL-NFL merger in 1970, no player 34 or older had ever carried he ball more than 33 times in a game.

LeSean McCoy must be part eskimo because he had no problem running through the blizzard that was falling in Buffalo. With Nathan Peterman under center, the Bills did the smart thing and decided to have McCoy carry the ball as often as possible in this game, which translated to 32 carries for 156 yards and a touchdown for McCoy. Shady's biggest run came in overtime when he scored the game-winning touchdown from 21 yards out. The 32 carries for McCoy was a career-high for the veteran, who's been in the NFL since 2009.

I wish I knew how to do that haze effect.  I use photoshop/gimp like once a year so I always forget the simple things.

I stole that from the FB post from Buffalo Bills official.  I bet they got the idea from you.
