The Green Bay Packers lost to the Buffalo Bills in Week 15 NFL action on a game-ending safety.
The Buffalo Bills were able to come up with a huge win at home against the Green Bay Packers, although there was a very strange ending to the game. Aaron Rodgers dropped back to pass and had the ball stripped out of his hand by Mario Williams, but Eddie Lacy recovered it and was looking to take it out of the end zone. Unfortunately for Green Bay, NFL rules state that no player can advance a fumble inside of two minutes left in the game.

Rodgers looked terrible all game long, and the Packers once again fail to prove themselves on the road. They are now sitting at 3-4 on the road, and home field advantage in the playoffs is looking extremely shaky following this loss.
Buffalo on the other hand improved to 8-6 on the season and are playing with desperation to get into the playoffs. They still have a chance, and this win was a huge one for those chances.
Take a look at the game-ending safety for yourself:
Quite simply, the NFL’s rules on fumbles in the last two minutes have been majorly questionable for quite some time. In that situation, Lacy should have had a chance to return it out of the end zone and keep his team alive. It’s just another area that the NFL has fallen short in, and the anger coming from Packers fans is warranted. However, the Bills won the game fair and square and dominated the game for the most part all the way through.
