Through 2 Games...

[Lost]

The Bills Defense has

 

Allowed the fewest rushing yards in the NFL 

2nd fewest passing yards allowed

Tied for the most interceptions with 5

Tied for most overall takeaways 

2nd most sacks in the NFL with 9

2nd Fewest points allowed in the NFL

 

 

Bills Offense Has

 

Most points scored in the NFL

Highest scoring margin of 27 points, more than double the next best team

2nd Highest Pass Rating

Best 3rd down conversion rate in the NFL at 60%

4th In Total Passing Yards

4th In Yards/At

 

 

All of this with arguably one of the toughest first 2 week schedules in the league.

Can we NOT appreciate the effect of Aaron Kromer to this offensive line unit? Through 2 games, they basically neutralized the opponents best DL player in Simmons and Donald. Kromer was the second best re-signing next to Jordan Phillips

[Big Turk]

Also has the highest point differential(again---led the NFL last year) by a wide margin at +55.

 

Have tied an NFL record held by the 1941-1942 Bears with 20 straight double digit wins.  Another double digit win will set the record.

 

This is an all-time great team and we don't even know it yet. The records they are setting and tying are records that only one or two other teams in the history of the NFL have accomplished and they are all different, it's not like it's just one category.

Henry certainly looks like he's lost a burst. I wonder if that injury second half of last season has done for him? 

 

Their receivers don't scare anyone and their CBs won't cover anyone who's at a decent level. Diggs extracted the urine last night.

Of course you do. Anything to take away from the Bills win. How do you feel about the Ravens?

It’s not nonsense. You are the definition of a troll. Your takes are pathetic.

That front 7 alone is gonna win them some games against average teams…they just straight up blew the giants game.  I bet they win the division still.  Certainly not looking like the dominant team they were last year though 

 

this has been a funny season so far…all these shocking qb moves to the afc have just not panned out so far.  Russell Wilson and Matt Ryan are looking pretty washed up.  That ‘revamped’ bengals oline is looking worse than last year.  Shouldn’t be too difficult for an 0-2 team to get themselves back in the conversation

Although it's only 2 games, we've been dominant.  Offense, Defense and Special Teams.  We look great in all aspects but what I'm most excited about is in the trenches, on both sides of the ball.  O-Line looks good but our D-Line looks unbelievable!  We're pushing guys around out there.   

[RyanC883]

no one should beat the Bills this year.  We will only lose due to a something like injuries, playing another great team while not playing our best game, or playing a team like MIA or anyone and playing really subpar (Jax last year).  We are more talented, deeper, and better coached than any team in the league right now.  Oh, and wait till our stud CB gets back!

[dpberr]

I think the 2022 Bills offense is a close cousin of the Greatest Show on Turf 1999 St. Louis Rams and the 1998 Minnesota Vikings that went 15-1. 

 

The modern day salary-capped defense just don't have enough talent to cover the array of weapons for the entire game.  

 

I really like Ken Dorsey's play calling through two games.  

 

 

 

[Big Turk]

For the 20th time in the last 34 games, the Bills have held their opponent under 200 yards passing for the game.  This is absurd in the era of passing and garbage time stats.  It is statistically more likely a team will fail to reach 200 yards(58.5%) passing against us than get over 200 yards passing. 

 

During the last 34 Games the Bills have AVERAGED 210 yards passing allowed, best in the NFL and also allowed an NFL best 75.6 passer rating against 

 

Inexplicably, the Bills have actually IMPROVED in the last 7 games without Tre in pass defense stats allowing an average of 187.5 yards a game and a passer rating of 65.2 with an opposing completion percentage of 55.4%. They are 3rd in YPG during that time to NO and SF and first in the other 2 categories.

Impressive numbers.  Hopefully they continue for another 5 months. 😊

Aren’t you the troll who was arguing McDermott had never beaten The Titans? Ha ha ha! That’s 3 now. You should hide and not come back.

[Sharky7337]

What's really impressive about this is that in high scoring games you expect a shootout if possible. So this is really awesome

[BillsFanSD]

I don't know how to quantify or really even define something like this, but after two weeks it feels like this team is "dialed in" in a way I haven't seen a Bills team since the SB era.  I'm talking here about guys playing with a very high degree of intensity, tackling consistently, hitting hard, taking full advantage of blocks, and generally doing the little things right that allow you to dominate instead of simply winning.  It feels like everyone across the entire roster is playing with a sense of purpose, from our all-world QB down to the 53rd guy who was happy to dress this week.  Everyone's turning up when called upon.

 

Not sure if this is sustainable over an entire season, but if it is . . .   

[dollars 2 donuts]

 

 

The only 2-0 whose victories have both come against playoff teams from last year.

 

 

[wjag]

The run defense is allowing the whole thing to work at the moment.  The Bills offense is doing what we expected.  Teams WASTING downs trying to run is what is killing them.  Bills get a lead and teams then abandon the run to a relentless pass rush.  Biggest difference, SO FAR, from last year to this year, is no one is gouging them on the ground.
