Still worried about the Bills' offense?

[MAJBobby]

Now what I did like. 
 

Bills Offense went right at what is considered Denver’s Defense Strength against the run and straight bullied them. 
 

Second earlier in game was is Redzone and stopped twice. Another Strength of Denver their RedZone Defense. So adjustment was take a strike to the endzone early either just inside the Redzone or out of the Redzone.  (Beasley and Brown)

If so you have my sympathies.  God forbid a team with 7-8 new starters be allowed to work things out and get better as the season progresses.

 

With back-to-back 17 point wins the Bills are ruining the "they only scrape by crappy opponents" narrative!

Im happy about it woohoo

What are the excuses from the haters this time?  Last week it was "just the Dolphins", but the Broncos D was supposed to be good.  Only 20 points?  Low completion % or yardage from Allen?

Gore should have had a better game.

It's mostly bad penalties that are killing their drives. 

Bingo.  Clean those up, and we’re really in business.

[MAJBobby]

I also think Singletary has Solidified himself as the RB1 of these team. And now with the Barry Sanders thing behind Gore the less and less hopefully we see him. 

[Coach Tuesday]

Is anybody still worried about Ed Oliver?  He beat up on Risner today, a pretty good guard.

I'm very happy with how our offense performed this week, but the next five weeks are going to tell us a lot about our roster.  I said earlier in the season that our offense figured to get better as the year went along because of the injuries to Singletary and Kroft and the time it takes for all the new guys to gel.  To be honest, I soured a bit on this unit a few weeks ago, but I really, really hope that we can sustain the performance that we've had the past couple of weeks.  Right now would be an excellent time to peak.

They shouldn't be. He is getting better and better.

Squandered chances in the first half. They almost entered halftime down 7-6 after a dominating performance on both sides of the ball. Against better teams, you can’t afford to do that.

Ooo the end of half drive was disgusting. And they did go back into their third QTR woes after the first drive.

I'd prefer deep throws that don't require a review by New York.

Yup Singletary emerging as a force has changed everything. Now we can run option offense that teams have to respect. This was always our destiny if we got far enough. Also, it's so nice to have bruisers like Feliciano who can shift over to center and we don't miss a beat. 

 

Edit: what's exciting is Allen and Singletary still have another level they can get to with the option. Josh let Devin get crushed by a DE in one of the exchanges early today. We already know he's good at that but those two don't have as many game reps together as Allen/Gore. More of those plays are going to start becoming big plays IMO because they're both such threats as runners.

As good as they have been playing, I blame the way they play in the 3rd qtr on their conservative coach. Today was a day to keep the foot on the gas for all 4 qtrs. Instead they try to run out the clock half way through the 3rd. Good teams keep trying to make plays and put up points. Not the Bills, McDermott seems to like running out the clock early. 

[Jerboski]

They need to clean up the penalties, good to see josh allen looking more confident each week and hit his long ball

[Helpmenow]

Injuries would make me nervous

[peterpan]

The O looked awesome in the first half.  Only bad play was the messed up fake-handoff which caused the INT.  (There were two or three other option reads that were not clean, those need to be addressed)

 

That being said, it was 6-0 at half.  Not exactly a huge lead.  We need to get TDs.  

 

There was a stretch in the 3rd quarter ( I think?) Were we didn't sustain drives.   That was a tad worrisome, as one lucky play from the Broncos could have made it extremely close.  

 

4th quarter they put their opposnent away, exactly what you'd like to see!!

 

Overall a very good outing.  If we expect to beat NE on a few weeks though, we can't settle for two FGs early and we can't have short drives in the second half.  That INT I'll chaulk up to a fluke day. 

 

My confidence is growing with Allen.  Loving the hurry up.  I think next year we could be serious contenders.  This year, I think winning a playoff game is realistic.  Likely play Colts/Houston if we are the 5th seed.  That's a winnable game for this team.

We are becoming a very capable offense--time together for 9 new starters makes a big difference. The one thing that most needs to improve are the senseless penalties.
