Pathetic defensive effort today
Wilson looked like a complete idiot holding his hand up in a fist because it’s 4th down. He’s evidently not bright enough to realize that the upcoming field goal puts Buffalo down by 17 to start the 4th.
Also, WTF is up with Jauron not throwing the challenge flag??? You have to challenge that even if it’s not particularly close…which it was.

But this game in particular seems like the old Bills. Penalties, turnovers, defense giving up chunk yardage. This season they have been great. I don’t know if many would agree with me but this game they seemed out coached, which is uncommon for Mr. Jauron
