ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. — Quarterback Tyrod Taylor took the blame for the play call at the end of the first half that allowed the clock to run out on the New York Giants at the Buffalo Bills' 1-yard line in a 14-9 loss at Highmark Stadium.
There was 14 seconds remaining in the half when Taylor alerted from a passing play to a run. Running back Saquon Barkley was tackled for no gain and the Giants couldn't get to the line of scrimmage to spike then ball before time expired. «It was a decision looking back on it (I) never should have made.
Shouldn't have made,» Taylor said. «Alerted to a run. Thought I saw a look that was beneficial for us and it wasn't the right call. »That falls on me.
As a quarterback, as a leader, as the one that is communicating everything to everyone, got to be better in that situation." The Giants had a 6-0 lead at the time.
