Bucs run defense is special but they can't cover.

So if the punt returner let the ball
roll inside the five, could he hypothetically just smack the ball out of the end zone for a touchback, and much better field position ?
Yes, but the danger of course is that the other team can recover a muff, which is why you don't see it often.

I think it’s because it’s not called out of bounds when it hits the pylon. I think…
Yeah even on a muff you can get a touchback.
I think that's incomplete and not a fumble but it's so close.

Bridgewater has a concussion and Lock is in for Denver so the Broncos are probably done here.
Jackson looks good but I'm not convinced the surrounding talent on Baltimore is good enough. This may turn into a bit of a convincing performance, though.

Not bad considering weather and Buffalo isn't great at this type of game and offensive line need work.
They do interesting things and have a pattern of going against what the formation looks like early in games.
18 rushes for 95 yards is a good rate and feel for the game says making Mills try and beat me is the way to go.

So I guess we continue to not know how good anyone outside Cleveland is in the AFC North.

Can definitely see Burrow's movement is limited by last year's injury that he's recovering from. His physical ability isn't all the way back.
Read option game is working for Lawrence but he is missing some reads.

Miscommunication here. I certainly understand vet rest during the week. This was in response to those who think we should rest a vet/some vets for the ACTUAL GAME, because the competition is deemed so inferior. THAT is what I'm taking exception to. Comprende?
Gotcha there. Buffalo will play guys who are healthy.

"Resting" players in Week #4? Seriously? That better not be the way this team thinks. This isn't a meaningless game at the end of the year. You don't rest players in week #4. Now, if you have a player who is injured with something that has a good chance of being exacerbated this week, then maybe you keep him from playing to protect him. But IMO that has to be legit. If the players can tell the bosses aren't taking the game seriously maybe they don't take it all that seriously either.
Vet rest is a normal policy for NFL teams throughout the season as far as the injury report goes, especiallu on Tuesday and Wednesday. Some teams have a set day off for vets and it looks like Buffalo rotates through. Most of the time, guys are banged up and they report whatever injury issue there is because you have to report in the NFL.
They don't need to practice as much as younger players do, so Friday and Saturday injury reports are a much better indicator of what will happen on Sunday.

Only one foot and no force out rule.

Yeah can't even see that on that replay.

The Redskins had about 3 exciting minutes there. Defense continues to look dominant.
The takeaway on offense is having that third receiver in synch with the offense is huge. Sanders looks like a huge improvement over Brown here. Knox also played very well as did Moss.

Obviously goofing around with that first down call...

That isn't on Isaiah. That is just a freak play.
No he has to catch the ball. He completely misjudged it.

Baltimore has to run 3 times. Can't leave KC with a timeout.

In the 2nd half - but he was awful in the first half - 2 INT's including a pick six.
The first one his receiver slipped on a timing pattern and the second one wasn't much worse than a punt, so a little context here.

Tennessee looks atrocious through 2 weeks. It's only 2 weeks, but their defense doesn't look good at all.

Eh it was a bad throw, behind the intended receiver. Usually it wouldn't have been a pick but it was still a bad throw. And he had a throw intended for McKenzie that probably should have been picked because he lofted it instead of rifling it. Allen has not been his usual self the past two weeks. He is making inaccurate throws that last year he was hitting. It isn't time to hit the panic button yet, and I agree the pass protection is contributing to the regression in his mechanics. If he gets out of his funk we could be unstoppable.
The interception was a throw he shouldn't have tried. That slant was double covered and you have to have a better post-snap read than that.

On the Miami side, I definitely thought that Brissett handled the Buffalo pass rush way better than Tua did, but they really just didn't solve what Buffalo was doing on defense at all.
Buffalo's offense picked up in the 2nd half, mostly on the back of the running game. Scoring 3 touchdowns on 4 possessions in the is the efficiency you want, even if it doesn't always look pretty. With 33 passes and 30 runs, I appreciate the attempt at having a more balanced approach, especially when the rushing attack works to the tune it did today.
But the pass protection is an issue here and clearly affects the overall efficiency. The film review is going to show a few things:
The Bills trying to use the crossing routes against the heavy man defense that worked for them last season and the protection not holding up. Allen's passes also seemed too floaty and he was throwing off his back foot some. When the protection held up, it looked like last year. When it didn't, it looked more like 2019.
Defensively, it looks like a top unit so far but everything with only a 2 game sample size is a taken with a very big pile of salt.

The O line is really concerning here. On that first and that third down Josh is getting hit before the routes even develop.
-
That's how you come out of the half.
-
Allen had no business throwing that one.
-
Nah that throw was good and Slayton has to catch that one and everyone knows it.
Jones looks good when he isn't turning the ball over.
That was a great play by Jones on a 50/50.
