26CornerBlitz Posted December 8, 2014 Author Share Posted December 8, 2014 Observations: Broncos 24 - Bills 17 By Joe Buscaglia As Dennis Green once yelled to a room of onlooking reporters: “They are who we thought they were!” With the type of performance that the Buffalo Bills put forth in a pivotal game to their playoff chances, they merely reinforced the prevailing thoughts about their identity. The Bills hung in with a bonafide Super Bowl contender but couldn’t come away with a victory, losing to the Denver Broncos 24-17. Some thoughts from the Bills loss, which left them in quite the playoff predicament: Orton’s welcome is being worn out - Don’t be fooled by the statistics from garbage time, prevent defense. For the fourth time in five weeks, Kyle Orton hindered the offense and prevented the Bills from taking what could have been theirs. They defeated the Cleveland Browns last week despite a poor performance from Orton, but an even worse day from Browns quarterback Brian Hoyer was the difference in the day. However, against Kansas City, Miami and now Denver, the defense played well enough for the team to claim a victory, and all the offense did was hold them back. Through the first three quarters — when the game was still attainable — Orton had yards per attempt splits of 4.0 through the first quarter, 4.4 through the first half and 5.7 after three quarters. Even though the yards per attempt went up in the third quarter, it was paired with two interceptions, with one coming in the Denver red zone. Orton has gone from suitable replacement, to average player, to an outright liability on an almost weekly basis. Teams have figured out the Buffalo offense with Orton at the helm and he hasn’t been nearly accurate enough to overcome it. The problem is this: there is no easy solution. EJ Manuel showed in his four starts at the beginning of the season that he still has a ways to go, but the team may have no other option than to go back to their former first-round pick. Either way, the quarterback play will be the biggest reason an overwhelmingly talented roster will likely miss out on the postseason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
