Buf 30 - Den 33: Another tough loss for Buffalo yesterday. That game was so stressful. I'm fine with the late calls. It really was turnovers and penalties that did them in. And it's a shame. The defense played so well in the second half and most of overtime. As did the offense. In the second half, it felt like they would win even though it was so close. These will continue to hurt. Year after year it feels like wasted opportunities. The loss isn't on any one player or group really. Just came up short. Again. Hopefully they can come up with some moves to help the defense and the receiving corps this offseason. Sorry to hear about Bo Nix being out for the rest of the offseason. They had a real shot of playing in the Super Bowl.
Tough loss for both Bills and Broncos fans. I only watched the highlights, but I could tell it would be emotionally draining for fans of both teams.
ReplyDeleteIt really is rough watching games like this. I've always said I'd almost prefer my team just get blown out if they are going to lose. Just get my suffering over with and don't give me hope.
DeleteThat 4th quarter gave me grey hairs. The Bills played admirably given the disadvantage they were given (6 days off vs Denver's 2 weeks, playing in the high altitude, etc.) You just can't have that many turnovers in a playoff game, even if that last interception was questionable...
ReplyDeleteI agree. You can't do that. You can't give away the ball or give the opposing team yards with penalties and expect to win. Not in the playoffs.
DeleteCrazy game; Sean McDermott getting fired a couple of days later was even crazier.
ReplyDeleteIt really was. Hated seeing McDermott go. I really liked him.
