I hate to say it but they have a better roster. Better QB, better OL, better TE, RB push, WR Bills basically Diggs, better CBs, LB push, DL Bills but Chris Jones can line up inside and out causing matchup problems. Special Teams push.
The way the Bills have played the last 3 weeks, I'm not sure where they belong. They beat the crap out of the Raiders and Washington who are both bad. They somehow played a flawless game against the Fish although that's when the injuries to the defense started. Ever since, it's been bad. I'm afraid it's going to get worse too. The schedule gets tougher, not easier and we look truly out of sorts on offense. Can't play 30 minutes of offense and expect to win.
I was overly emotional after Jagoffs loss because I was afraid losing Milano and Jones along with White previous week ended our chance of seriously competing for SB this season. That said, the Bills didn't play a 60 minute game once again, got outcoached again, and looked bad for too long again. Just terrible football yet again.
I thought the offense would start off fast today because of 2 previous bad games. I was wrong. Not sure who to blame exactly but usually a coach gets canned because it's the easier option. I'm not proposing anything right now but it's not looking good.
Quite frankly, they don't have one good reason to look this bad. No one on offense is hurt. Not one guy. Defense is a different story. Their best CB, their best LB, and their best run stopping DT all out but they should not have lost to Pats today. Pats have a bunch of guys hurt too. A terrible loss today. Gotta to hand it to McD - he loses games in mind numbing fawkin ways.
The Giants played a very inspired game the other night. Giants fans said it was their best effort this season. The Giants D line caused all kinds of pressure on the Bills oline and on Allen. Allen did a nice job of not getting sacked. I'll be curious to see Giants play going forward. Are they getting it together or was that a one off. FWIW, Dawkins, McGovern, and Brown had bad PFF grades for this game.
Washington declined the 5th yr option on Chase Young. He's been injured a fair amount. A free agent after the season. Montez Sweat is a bit of a surprise but Jonathan Allen has been their most consistent DL guy.
