This game was a must-win game for the Buffalo Bills.

It was a chance to defeat a high-level opponent in Drew Brees and the New Orleans Saints, and it was also a chance for the Bills to prove themselves that they’re for real in the AFC.

Sadly, the Bills flat out got dominated and embarrassed at home last Sunday in a 47-10 loss. Here are 5 reasons why the Bills lost.

5) Tyrod Taylor
There’s a reason why Taylor was replaced by Nate Peterman on Sunday and is now behind Peterman on the depth chart.

Taylor was 9/18 for 56-yards and 1 interception. That is just down right bad. Peterman had more yards than Taylor on one drive alone and managed to get the Bills their first touchdown of the afternoon with 1:55 left in a fourth quarter blow out.
