I don't think offense really works that way. It's not a switch that you can just turn on. What I saw was an uprepared mess that is going to take a lot of time to fix, if at all. The problems begin and end with the offensive line. For too long they've been held together with tape and glue. Incognito played out of his mind last year and maybe this year he's coming back down to Earth. Wood is an average center at best and was really helped last season by the way Incognito was playing. Glenn seems more hurt than we realized. That ankle will probably hinder him all season. The right side of the line is a mess. Miller may one day develop into a starting level guard, but the fact that they've had to start him for the past two seasons indicates how thin the Bills are on line. The RT position speaks for itself. Both regulars show flashes, but are inconsistent.
When the offensive line doesn't hold up their end the rest of the offense is ineffective. Without the time to throw deep Tyrod's inaccuracy in the short game is evident. Without the passing threat defenses can feel free to cheat up in the running game and we've seen the result of that plenty of times in the past. Maybe a more physical back could have hung in and gotten the tough yards. Maybe not. The receivers on our team are simply not good enough. Sammy is great, but it's evident he's not 100%. Robert Woods just doesn't have it. I so badly wanted him to, but whether it's just the system he's in or a lack of ability it's just not clicking for him. The rest of our receivers would struggle to make most rosters in the NFL.
