The Buffalo Bills can complain about alot of things that went wrong in their playoff matchup with the Houston Texans, but it was them that blew a 16-0 lead and get eliminated on Saturday.

However, there was a moment during OT when the Texans faced a 3rd-and-18 that should’ve lead to an eventual punt, but the Texans not only converted it, they seemed to get away with a delay of game.

A Bills fan posted the video on Twitter and it shows the clock on :00 before Deshaun watson hiked the ball and completed a pass.

How is this not a delay of game? Clock is clearly sitting at 00. @NFLOfficiating #BillsvsTexans pic.twitter.com/GxhMBYGZPI

For 2½ quarters, the Buffalo Bills appeared ready to end a 24-year drought without a playoff victory, but a JJ Watt sack seemed to spark the Texans to comeback, take the lead, and then eventually win in OT.

The blown lead set a new franchise playoff record for the Bills, who also blew an 11-point lead against the Chargers in 1980.
