The one thing he's still doing well is pass block/blitz pick up. That's also the one area Cook is seriously struggling. But even as a short yardage/goal line runner he hasn't been effective. That is why Harris had that role.

I knew Dodson was starting seeing the majority of time...but they couldn't even work Williams in for a series or two? Now some of that may have had to do with all the dime looks...but odd to me.

Some very interesting things (at least to me). 1. Latavius Murray gets less snaps. He had been almost 50/50 the last few weeks. He's also been less effective as a runner to my eyes. Getting stuffed at the goal line and short yardage. Something to watch. 2. Shakir' snaps WAYYYYYY up. Harty way down. 3. Neither Josh Norman or Andy Isabella recorded a snap on offense or defense. 4. Buffalo ran 69 offensive plays. Nice. 5. Rapp had his highest snap count of late as the Bills played more dime than normal. (Dodson was taken off field for these snaps.) 6. Dorian Williams with ZERO snaps. 7. Von in on 40% of the snaps. Had a nice pressure on Mayfield late but couldn't close out the sack. 8. David Edwards was essentially TE2 last night when needed. (Wasn't often)

I agree. A win is never a bad thing. Are there things left to clean up and correct? Absolutely. Did we see some signs that they are already in the process of making changes? Without a doubt. Getting Kincaid, Shakir and Davis rolling was HUGE for the offense. We've identified some playmakers not named Diggs. That's going to help big time. Problem here with MANY in the fan base is they have become almost self entitled. If the Bills don't completely dominate it's a "bad win". The important things I take away from last night: - 5-3 after 8 games. I had us at 6-2 before the season here. That's 1 game off and still can make it up. - Mini bye right now is HUGE. The injury list has been long. More than that we have hit the part of the season where guys who AREN'T on the injury list are playing through some things. The next 10 days gives them all time to rest, rehab and prep for Cincinnati. - Seems like aside from Josh's shoulder we came out of last night without any major injuries. I don't hate where we are at right now.

In retrospect, there may have been a reason not to "tush push". Not sure if jamming Josh into that pile is a smart move with the shoulder bothering him. As a matter of fact, that's pretty reckless IMO depending on the severity. No reason for him to take those extra hits. Being Harris is on IR I would assume you meant Murray getting that carry instead. They did hand it to him a few times inside the 5 at times and had no success with it. I would agree, though shotgun is rarely the formation Id use at the goal line. Maybe on a second down or something to spread it out and attempt a QB draw. But they need to use the next 10 days and figure out how to pinch it in when close. It's becoming a tad ridiculous at this point.

This win gives something to everyone. There were a ton of positives to be optimistic about. There were some issues the pessimistic posters will cry about. Either way it's a win and I'm going to bed lol

Tampa literally had every bounce of the ball land their way. We still found a way. Got the win. Looking like we came out healthy. Got Shakir, Kincaid and Davis to pop off a bit. And now 10 days to rest and work out some bugs and prep for Cincinnati. 5-3? I'll take it.

Benford is good at football

Phillips about ripped his face off. Sheesh

Lmao at Tampa just running the clock out on themselves

Baker is almost refusing to throw anything past 5-8 yards. He'll have to now.

Baker is giving me Trent Edwards PTSD with all the checkdowns

Their punter outkicks the coverage ever time. We bail him out with the dumb ST penalties.

Sam Martin putting on a clinic

An Allen...SLIDE?!?!? LOVE IT

Eesh.

We really need a turnover here. Time for the Nard Dawg?

Who has had him primarily? Benford?

Including tonight he's catching a hair under 70% of his targets for the season. 5 TDs on the year with 426 yards. Those are all SOLID WR2 numbers. Yet some will keep their narrative.

8 catches 79yds. 1TD. Outstanding.

Non All- Pro OCs: We need to get Kincaid the ball. We need to get Shakir involved. Let Josh run. Go under center inside the 5. 🤔🤔

Fitz REALLY nailed the problems Dorsey has with play calls.

Taron has has a rough few weeks.

JA17. The Alien. The Freak From Firebaugh. He's ******* BACK

No offense, but if we're doing that I'd rather let Josh try than you, my friend😂
