Star Choice no longer provides the Buffalo network affiliates. This is why I saw none of the game live. All of the CBS and CTV affiliates I could find on the guide were carrying the Colts and the Texans. So, we exercised, watched a little basketball, checked the out of town scores and left the cottage around 3.30pm with the score tied at 14.
The WGR crew was fixated on the last touchdown - as in, were they "running up the score" when they could have taken a knee and run the clock down leading by 10. It's been so long since this has been a consideration that I think the Bills coaching staff simply kept calling plays right until the end. This week's preparations did not include a plan for whether or not to run up the score. Wins are always good - even if they cost you 2 or 3 places in the draft.
I did see the end of the Titans game and Vince Young converted on 4th down 3 times, including on the last play of the game. They could finish 10-6 after starting 0-6. Peter King said emphatically that the Colts would lose at Houston yesterday but they did not. Monday night features a great match up with the Patriots at New Orleans. And, Saskatchewan is up on Montreal in the 3rd quarter of the Grey Cup.
I have traded my tickets for Thursday's game for a pair of good Raptors tickets. I'm sure I will watch it on TV - as long as it sells out by Monday at 8.20pm.
