The only game the Bills have played that you can say they put up some "garbage time" stats was last week vs. the Dolphins. The ravens loss was a close loss; the Jets was also a one score game; even the Dolphins last week ended up in a one score game, but the game was already decided in reality hence garbage time stats I guess. We haven't played a team where we're losing by 20 and they're going strictly into prevent defense and we just rack up yards/stats.

I would say that's fairly accurate.

I get where you're coming from, but the same argument can be said about any team. When the Cardinals score 9 points one game but then 40 the following game, we as non-Cardinals fans don't remember the 9 point performance but drool over the 40pt game and wonder why we can't do that. The same standard is applied to every team. At the end of the day the numbers are what the numbers are. Red zone offense, drives of ten plays or more, scoring - we have solid rankings. The TEAM's record is 4-3. This thread is about the offense.

Agreed about 3rd down conversions. The numbers reveal the following about the Bills offense: They rank #8 in the NFL in drives of 10 plays or more before ending the drive with a scoring play, a turnover or end of half/game. However, they have a lot of 3 and outs as well. What does that tell me? We don't have many drives where we get a couple of first downs and then end up punting. We either have long, sustained scoring drives (we have quick strikes as well), or we have a 3 and out. How can these numbers be deceiving? A single number/stat can be deceiving but this pretty much encompasses all pertinent statistical categories.

This is great news, especially about Woods.

I would like this offense to improve in the two minute drill to end the game as well.

This offense is pretty damn good. Over the last 2 seasons, by any significant statistical measure, this offense either ranks around the middle of the pack, or near the top, depending on what you're looking at. As we all know, in 2015, this offense was #1 in the NFL in "big plays" (Big plays are categorized as rushing plays that are over 10 yards and passing plays that are over 25 yards) with a big play percentage of 10.04%. In 2016, so far the Bills are #2 in the NFL in big plays with a Big Play % of 10.19%. So as an offense, we're technically doing even better so far than we did last year at producing big plays, which is significant when you consider Sammy has been out all year and we have nothing else at WR. A big part of the reason our big plays are so high this year is a result of the rushing attack with 33 big play rushes, compared to 9 big play passes. In 2015 we had 70 big play rushes and 32 big play passes (the 32 big play passes ranked 12th highest in the NFL and the 70 big play rushes ranked #1 in the NFL). So far in 2016, the Bills rank: #12 in the NFL in Team Scoring Drive Efficiency (how often the offense is able to put points on the board) #6 in points per game. #8 in the NFL in drives of 10 plays or more before ending the drive with a score, turnover, or end of half/game. #11 in QB rating in red zone. #5 Red Zone scoring % (TD only) #3 in TD/INT ratio. #2 in rushing yards/game. #1 in rushing yards/attempt #1 in QB rushing yards Three main areas we can still improve: Passing yards per attempt, we are rank 27th. One caveat regarding this stat is that the Bills rank #18 in QB Air Yards which calculates how far the ball is thrown beyond the line of scrimmage to the point of reception. So we just aren't getting yards after the catch basically when we do complete passes. Partly b/c of subpar throws at times, and partly b/c our WR just aren't good/explosive. The Bills rank dead last in the NFL in YAC. We rank #24 in 3rd down conversion %. I would like this number to move up to at least around 15-18 in the NFL. We rank #30 in sack percentage (the rate of QB sacks a team suffers for every pass attempt). ln other words, we're giving up too many sacks. All three phases are to blame here in my opinion: TT, O-line, WR's. They all need to improve. So that pretty much sums up where we stand statistically on offense in the majority of statistically significant categories. There are areas we need to improve, but overall, this offense is a GOOD offense. I can't wait to see Sammy and Shady play an entire season together. Hopefully it'll happen one day. Go BILLS!

I want an apology from Whaley for fielding this sad bunch of WR's.

1. A new medical staff 2. A new stength and conditioning staff 3. A WR 4. A RT 5. A safety

I never liked the all white. Look like pajamas Regular unis plus the standing buffalo throw back helmet would look sharp

And I like stafford and of course I wish he was on the Bills or we had a similarly talented QB. But his pros come with cons as well, And his main con is turnovers. Combining fumbles and int's he has had some seasons with 20+ turnovers and one year nearly 30 turnovers. You can blame the rest of his team all you want but when you turn the ball over at that clip your team is going to lose a lot. But of course, he'll finish the year with 4,500yds passing. To his credit, he seems to be maturing as a QB and is improving by minimizing turnovers.

The Bills have had 2 winning seasons in 13 years. TT has a winning record on these Bills over 21 games at 12-9. So how is what TT is doing (winning) easily dismissed but yet Stafford being at below .500 lauded?

I liked Rambo a lot. First blood.

No worries at all. 👍🏼👍🏼

Im really happy A. Williams is doing well. He truly seems like a great guy.

I agree.

Thats all you have this entire thread. Nonsense.

How am i "uber" emotional? I posted PFF's grade. Its not mine. Youre the one shelling out personal insults. You're out of line, as usual. My man? IM A BILLS FAN.

You must be a TT Fanboy.

Quarterback grade: Tyrod Taylor, 84.5 Taylor is his usual self in nearly flawless performance Buffalo quarterback Tyrod Taylor was his usual self as he did not commit many mistakes and none of those were actually turnover-worthy throws. Furthermore, he had one of those accurate deep passes that are becoming his signature throws when he hit receiver Marquise Goodwin in stride for a long touchdown pass. In addition, Taylor was inaccurate on only one of his 14 passes that travelled less than 20 yards. I watch all the games and dont go into them with an agenda.

Youre making yourself look foolish. And the bills are actually tied with the Cardinals and ahead of the Packers for passing yards per attempt. Keep trolling. Bills shouldve signed Osweiler. Classic.

Ah yes, now we look at W/L. I thought it was about stats? At least i love a Bills QB, and not every other QB not named Tyrod. Have fun with that.

A Pinata can take a hit better than Glass can.

According to you we should have signed Osweiler. 8td, 8int vs 9td, 2int. Lets not forget Osweiler's 5.7yards/attempt. And who has Hopkins as a WR? TD MIKE is avg more per rush than Osweiler is per pass.
