Position grades: Bills’ physicality on line of scrimmage draws Sean McDermott praise
‘Offensive line (4.5). Blocking was beautiful on Cook’s 49-yard touchdown run. Spencer Brown and O’Cyrus Torrence double-teamed Da’Shawn Hand, and Connor McGovern made a power solo block on Brandon Pili to seal a big lane for Cook. Torrence had a couple nice solo blocks, too. The Bills barely needed to throw. But the pass protection by Brown against outstanding linebacker Jaelan Phillips was good, and Dion Dawkins was a powerhouse on the other side. Alec Anderson is showing his feistiness, as the Bills used him as a third tackle on eight plays. He had good knockdown blocks on defensive ends Quintin Bell and Calais Campbell in the second half.’

After the Bills built a big lead, they bulked up, inserting tackle Alec Anderson as a third tackle on nine plays.’

PFF Week 2 Bills grades: Von Miller posts elite grade, starting OL doesn’t fare well
‘The Bills OL, at first glance, had a strong game against the Dolphins. Miami did not record a single QB hit on Allen in the game and the Bills were able to average over four yards per carry on the ground. Despite this, Pro Football Focus gave the unit poor marks.’
