Bo Nix broke his ankle on the second to last play of the game. he's done for the playoff.

His fumble prior to half time was absolutely inexcusable. It was one of the dumbest plays if not the dumbest play I have ever seen in my life. You weren’t going to score in that situation. Just go down…gave them 3 points and that was the difference in the game.

No way you can put that loss all on him. He wasn't the one that fumbled as they were driving on their second possession (Cook) and he wasn't the one who dropped an easy TD at the back of the endzone right before the end of the first half that likely would have lead to another 3rd down play rather than having to settle for a FG on that drive. Not to mention the 2 TD passes that Nix threw against 3rd string DB's right after Lewis and White went out with injuries. He carried the team on his back all season with all the injuries on both sides of the ball and without him they don't even make the play-offs.

Why did OC Brady call a play? Why Did McD allow it?

The really comical thing is I said to my GF just before the kick off that the goal is to secure the kick off and take a knee.

They get the ball to start the second half

I said you don't want to go into the half down 10 so play it safe

The really weird thing was the Bills with Five Turnovers were on the verge of winning the game

Non call on the PI in the end zone lead to tie vs a Bills win

Then the phantom PI call that was not as bad as the PI in the end zone extends the drive then Tre's PI call which was legit and the subsequent PF when he blew a gasket.

I don't think I have ever seen a screw job that was so blatant I almost feel like giving up on the NFL it so fixed whats the point when the NFL decides who wins and loses not the players on the field.

At least when we got screwed vs KC it was more subtle

One more crazy thing Bo Nix fractures his ankle talk about instant karma

The NFL just handed a 7th SB to the Cheaters the most undeserving team of the 2000's

Not a Bills fan but that game really seemed like a chance they let slip away.

I forgot about the Cooks catch there was just so much to the screw job

Dan Orlovsky of ESPN fame tweeted after the game how could the refs call 54 yards in penalties on one drive and he called it total incompetence

The whole thing from the non PI call that would have gave the Bills the ball at the one was just BS.
Nix was not going to successfully lead a game winning drive and the refs help him

I feel bad the kid broke his ankle on the 2nd last play

How any Bronco's fan could be satisfied with that win is beyond me if the Bills won like that I would be embarrassed.

To me it seemed like the refs pulled it away

The non PI call in the end zone with what 5 seconds left

The joint possession int in overtime that gave the Bronco's the ball back.

The phantom PI call on 3rd down to keep the drive alive.

3 game changing plays that are the sole discretion of the refs.

In the CFL we have coaches challenges on PI calls they need them in the NFL.

The only thing I could think for the non-dpi call in the endzone, was that it wasn’t a catchable ball. At least from the angle I saw. I would have to watch the all 22.

Cooks made the catch and went to the ground while being touched. Should have given the Bills a chance to kick the winning field goal. The same play happened yesterday with Davante Adams being awarded the catch before it was ripped out. Similar play called two different ways. A great game decided by the refs in overtime. Going upstairs on a close play results in the booth backing the refs. It sucks and in these moments I hate being emotionally involved in sports.

Kind of surprised

Kind of not.

Lets hope we get the right guy and maybe some personality at the mic.

McD was a bit vanilla.
