NFL WRs in their 3rd year should know where to line up, period. And even worse, on that last play, Toney's basically looking right at the other WR on the other side, and never once notices that he's way ahead of that guy.
The WR coach should've been in Toney's ear at some point during the game about his alignment. If they both do their jobs correctly, maybe Toney doesn't line up like that on the final play, and at least we score the TD and force BUF to score one in 1:15.
And it boggles my mind that a professional 3rd-year WR in the NFL didn't check with the officials ONCE during the game about his alignment. That's inexcusable.

Correct. I get being mad at how the refs pulled that out but you need to get your fundamentals down first.
We don't have legit NFL WR's. We have a bunch of junk and Rice is a promising player being molded to be that guy down the road. Toney has all the talent in the world, knows how to run routes yet still is a net negative. That's very hard to stomach on a team already paper thin at WR talent.
