Trying a better format for you all since it's all tweets

 

*this is ongoing

 

@Andy_Benoit:

 

Film: #Giants played up tempo early, Manning a lot of orchestrating at line.

 

#Giants first two series kept Beckham at LWR, across from RCB Gilmore. Beckham won underneath, Gilmore won downfield. Advantage #Bills

 

#Bills a variety of pressure concepts, DL slants and long stunts. Rendered irrelevant by Manning getting ball out quickly.

 

#Bills pressure looks often aligned two men in backfield, flanking Manning in shotgun. Options out of 7-man protections

 

Harris 21 yd TD on seam route bullet by Manning vs. a Cover 2 type concept that was compressed to that side.

 

#Giants werent going to allow #Bills pass rush to factor. Either 3-step timing or 7-man protections on basically every dropback.

 

Bills a variety of pressure concepts, DL slants and long stunts. Rendered irrelevant by Manning getting ball out quickly.

 

Giants gameplan also showed they clearly feel OL is a work in progress right now.

 

Bills very diverse with fronts, even against base looks. Kyle Williams a movable piece.

 

#Bills will tell you Kyle Williams is as good a athlete as anyone in NFL. Just happens to be a big body.

 

Kyle Williams has dropped back into coverage 9 times this season and earned a +.5 coverage grade per @PFF

 

#Bills often employed steady use of a NT, often Dareus. Sure there were a variety of reasons for that, clearly part of gameplan.

 

RT Newhouse excellent combo block on Jennings 14 yd run.

 

Gilmore was excellent in press along the boundary.

 

Both #Giants TDs in first half set up by #Bills mistakes. An INT and an illegal D alignment vs. FG.

 

#Giants success with quick in-breaking routes (staple of the system). Randle 11-yd TD one example.

Dareus good leverage, ability to shed blocks without giving up ground.

 

#Giants ground game existed almost entirely between the tackles. Jennings and Williams are not perimeter runners.

 

Could very well argue Darby and Gilmore are best outside CB tandem in NFL.

 

Darby had a very good all-around game. Stood out breaking on in-routes.

 

Graham sack was slot blitz, protection concept did not originally account for him vs. that front.No post-snap adjustment

 

Graham sack actually more of an edge blitz with a DB, not a straight slot blitz. Rest of analysis still holds.

It's good our pass rush is still respected even though the stats are bad. The offense has to pay some kind of price for having to pass quick. Doesn't press coverage work in this situation?

Bills did good job w/ pressure concepts involving front defenders dropping into shallow inside lanes. Where #Giants system attacks.

 

surprised Robey has not been used as a blitzer more this season. One of the best slot blitzers in game.

 

Jennings 53-yd TD Manning moved Jennings further outside in backfield, which was the indicator of where ball was going.

Basically confirms my thoughts as the 4th quarter was winding down...not only should the Bills have won this game, they should have won convincingly. Self-inflicted wounds were the story of the day.

My thoughts exactly...Bills made awesome 2nd half adjustments but details screwed them. Penalties, one key missed tackle and Woods fighting for yards instead of just going down.

As so often happens in the NFL, and sports in general, favored teams "read the headlines" and act as if being favored to win means they will win. The Bills came out flat, and the Giants were pumped. The mistakes meant they could not recover.

Bills D rank 8th in QB Pressures (67). Mariota under pressure- 48.4% completion rate (20th). 29.5% sack rate (1st), pressured on 39.3% (7th)

They're still getting pressure even after Brady and Manning threw the ball in record time.

 

 

Gotta cut out the mistakes and cut down on the points given up. The D will be fine, the offense needs to get back on track though.

The Bills are the best at beating themselves.

 

We're #1 in penalties with 47 (far outdistancing #2 with 38)>

 

We're #1 in penalty yards with 428 (#2 has 336).

 

We're #1 in net penalties (14 more than our opponents).

 

We're #1 in net penalty yards (139 more than our opponents).

 

We're #1 in Unnecessary Roughness with 8 (#2 has 5).

 

The sages and gurus said we'd be a dominant defensive team this year. Well, we're dominating when it comes to yellow flags.

Moving onto Bills offense

 

3rd-7 incompletion mid 1st qtr illustration of Tyrod Taylors callowness. Needless pocket movement then predetermined throw.

 

Kennard INT another predetermined throw by Taylor. Ball needed to go to WR hitch route. And open WR was in QBs line of vision.

 

Kennard INT was also outstanding wheel route coverage vs. a TE -- not easy. Great individual D.

I'd say price paid was OBJ 38 yards, 5 catches on 12 targets. Not a stellar day by your best offensive weapon by a mile. Also Eli Manning Had about 150 yds passing or so by 4 th Qtr. Biggest pass play of day was a 1 yard pass in the flat that went for 51 TD on a missed tackle. Pretty good defensive effort wasted by ineffective offense.

#Bills first 9 drives had 1 turnover, 6 three-and-outs, 3 points.

Bingo . It's rather obvious offense lost this game. Why the stress over defensive stats. D pretty much had this game there for the taking if O could get out of its own way. Especially in 1st half. 10 Pts isn't beating many teams on your schedule.
