Had a helluva game as Buffalo playing at Detroit. First half of the game, Stafford and Bush had their way with me. Was down 20-3 with just over a minute left in the first half. Was 3rd and long at my own end. Called a Hail Mary Trips and told Sammy Watkins to "Run like the wind my son". I sent them down, let the ball fly, said a couple Hail Marys and Sammy proceeded to catch it in stride and complete a 78 yard TD pass play. I don't switch players until the ball it caught.
During the second half, a Detroit interception and fumble got me back in the game. I pulled ahead mid way through the 4th and on the next drive, Detroit just walked down the field and tied it back up with under two minutes left. A couple of well connected pass plays and I got within FG range. Drive stalled with just under a minute left, kicked the FG and was able to hold on for the win.
Two weeks before, against the Chargers, I never made it into the end zone.
I've tweaked Armor's set a little and am not using the roster edits.
