Bills beat Miami 66-31, leading by 17-0 at end of 1st and 38-15 at half and 52-31 by end of 3rd....Game was never close, miami started with 3 turnovers inside first 2 1/2 minutes of game--setting up the perfect storm for the Bills bowout win.
by game's end, score displayed a 35 point BLASTING of Miami by the Bills, yet the game stats told an erroneous story of a close game: Bills outgained Miami in yards 550-475 and out did miami in first downs 13-12, and if you include special team yardage, Bills only outdid Miami by 35 yards ( 674-639 in TOTAL YARDS). The Tale-Tell story really was TURNOVERS and DROP BALLS and of course pass deflections by an overactive Bills defensive backfield. miami tallied 5 turnovers altogether---each leading to a Bills score......Buffalo did not lose ball via turnover at all in game, so the +5 went to Bills there! Miami had a total of 4 drops officially ( 3 by Moss and 1 by wr3 Bowe) and Bills had also 3 drops, so drops were a wash basically...However, Bills defenders racked up TEN (10) pass deflections and 3 picks all while Miami had absolutely ZERO ( yep, NONE!!) pass deflections and NO Picks, not even a sack ...Miami did manage 4 tackles for losses, bettering the 1 that the Bills had...Miami also bested Bills in 3rd down conversions, making 5 of 8 attempts and also was 1 for 1 on 4th downs while Bills were impressive 4 of 8 on 3rd and 1 for 1 on 4th due to a fake punt late in game with score 59-31 at the time .Miami was able to get 3 of 3 on 2 point conversion tries---having to go for 2 pointers often and early due to distance of scores between Miami and Bills throughout the game.Miami was 3 of 5 inside the Redzone, while Bills were a Perfect 3 of 3. Miami only held ball 7:53 of game, remaining 12:07 belonged to Bills. SCORE was ALREADY 24-00 by the time Miami finally got on the boards in 2nd quarter. from that point on, Bills outscored Miami 42-31. Good Game BlueHens, see you later in season!
