They bungled the game on the previous drive when they scored a touchdown on 1st and goal from the 1 yard line with over 2 minutes left.
A week after the Patriots had 1st and goal on the 1 and ran 2 QB sneaks designed to fail so they could take more time off the clock.
I guess they had no confidence in their ability to score.
While I hate the Bills, I have always liked Jauron and wanted him to do well, being local, etc. But I have concluded that he just is not a very good in-game coach. From failing to challenge Welker's catch against us during the last game to the type of errors referred to here and other places, he's just not good decision-wise on the field. He seems respected by his players and peers, but I'm just not seeing it, as much as I would like to. That being said, RAC didn't, and hasn't, exactly covered himself in glory with the Browns, either.
By running it exclusively those last 3 downs .... it looked like Jauron was playing to burn Brown's timeouts with points his team hadn't yet scored rather than playing to score those points in the first place. The Browns were playing the run all the way.
