-FIRST QUARTER:
-13:46: Bills get a pass rush and force a three-and-out. Am I dreaming?
-12:44: Bills answer with a three-and-out of their own. One big reason I HATE these games in Toronto? The atmosphere is like a pre-season game.
-10:04: Bills force another three-and-out. Getting the feeling there won't be a lot of points on the board today.
-9:52: David Nelson with a GODLY 26 yard catch. Takes a big hit, but hangs on.
-9:00: FREDDY goes up the gut for 13 and the Bills are on the move.
-5:11: Fitz finds Big Scott Chandler for a 20 yard TD. Chandler have five TDs, and is one away from tying a Bills' franchise record for TDs by a tight end in a season.
P.A.T. makes it 7-0 BILLS.
-4:23: Redskins go empty backfield to start this drive, and get their first first down.
-3:07: John Beck has room to run for the first down...and drops the ball. *Queue The Price is Right FAIL music*.
-2:20: Bills let a rookie WR with zero career catches get wide open for a 20 yard gain and a first down. *sigh*
-1:01: Leodis McKelvin makes a nice play to break up a pass and almost get a pick on 3rd down. He'll get burned badly later to make up for it.
-:00: Freddy runs for a first down as Aikman points out that beating New England was big for the Bills. Thanks a bunch, professor.
-SECOND QUARTER:
-14:27: Fitz loses the snap, Freddy can't grab it, and the Redskins fall on it. DAMN IT.
-13:00: Bills give up a third down, but Beck bangs his thumb on a helmet, and it might give him some issues.
-11:44: Bills get a stop, including TWO (!) sacks. Frame of reference: Bills only had 4 going into this game.
-11:08: Bills block the field goal to keep it 7-0! I *heart* Marcell Dareus!
-Replay shows it was Spencer Johnson who blocked it.
-10:17: Long pass is not particularly well thrown, but it does draw a pass interference penalty to put Buffalo at the Washington 23.
-9:25: Bills get stopped short on a 3rd down screen to Freddy, but they are in good field goal range.
-8:45: Lindell connects from 37 yards out to make it 10-0 BILLS.
-8:41: Bills special teams make another good stand, stopping the returner at the 'Skins 14.
-7:52: John Beck joins the "fuck it, I'm going deep" club, although to be fair, the ball has to be intercepted for full membership.
-7:46: DAREUS gets the Bills' third sack to force another three-and-out.
-5:07: Bills are driving, but a nice Freddy run is called back by a questionable holding penalty. Of course it is.
-3:09: Bills manage to come back when Fitz finds Naaman Roosevelt for a 22 yard gain on 3rd-and-12. First and goal.
-1:55: SHIT! Formber Bill London Fletcher makes a great play to pick off Fitz in the end zone. They are letting Washington hang around...
-1:13: Bills force yet another three-and-out, including their fourth sack of the game, to give the offense another chance to put some points on the board before halftime.
-:25: Fitz takes a shot, but finds FREDDY for a 34 yard gain to get the Bills in scoring position.
-:02: Bills barely stop the clock with time left to kick a field goal, taking a penalty in the process. Fortunately, even though the Bills have no timeouts, the penalty did not stop the clock, so there is no 10 second runoff.
-:00: Lindell connects from 44 yards out to make it 13-0 BILLS.
-Who decided to ask Mandy Moore who she thinks is going to win the upcoming UFC on FOX main event?
-THIRD QUARTER:
-14:53: FREDDY starts the second half right with a 43 yard run. I expect CJ Spiller to get called for holding, but it doesn't happen.
-10:56: Bills throw on 3rd-and-1, and it pays off as Fitz finds Chandler for his second of the game.
P.A.T. makes it 20-0 BILLS.
-10:16: Bills take an offsides penalty, and I don't care because I found a .gif of Thigpen getting beaned!
-8:20: Bills sack Beck AGAIN. How in the hell did the Redskins start 3-0?
-7:46: Bills force a punt. Another score, and this may enter the same territory of the season opener.
-5:56: Bills go three-and-out, I can't be bothered to get pissed at this point.
-3:44: Bills get sack #6 to push Washington back, then possibly #7 on 4th down to give the Bills good field position outside their own 40.
-1:42: Bills punt again. Offense has fallen asleep.
-:22: One of the Bills' d-linemen gets tackled. Apparently that's not a penalty anymore.
-FOURTH QUARTER:
-14:52: Bills finally get their first takeaway of the game, as George Wilson bats the ball to himself for the INT.
-13:22: Bills offense finally wakes up long enough for Fitz to Find Freddy for a 24 yard gain on 3rd-and-9.
-11:04: Two pre-snap penalties turn a 3rd-and-1 into a 3rd-and-11. *sigh*
-9:59: Lindell's 44 yard FG smacks off the upright. Only his second miss of the season.
-8:38: Redskins get a big gain to the Buffalo 39. COME ON GUYS PITCH THE SHUTOUT!
-7:49: Redskins go long into the end zone, but Jarius Byrd makes the pick in the end zone. Beck is officially a full member of the "fuck it, I'm going deep" club.
-6:20: Fitz finds Stevie Johnson for an 18 yard gain on 3rd-and-9 to keep the clock moving.
-3:30: Bills run the clock down, Redskins spend two timeouts in an attempt to not get shutout.
-3:26: Lindell hits from 41 to make it 23-0 BILLS.
-2:48: DAREUS re-introduces himself to Beck for yet another sack.
-1:27: Redskins are driving, down to the Buffalo 17. HOLD ON GUYS!
-:50: Bills get another sack, this time by some guy names Kirk Morrison. Bills tie a team record with 9 sacks.
-:40: Beck's 4th-and-12 pass falls incomplete.
-:00: Kneel-down ends the game. First time Mike Shanahan has been shut out in his career. :-)
-Good effort from the Bills. Offense left some points on the board, but that's the best game the defense will have all year. Next week is Bills VS Jets round 1 in Buffalo, with the Jets coming off a bye. Will be an extremely tough game.
