26CornerBlitz Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 @SalSports Bills finish tops in rushing, near bottom in sacks. Here are their complete Off, Def, & Special Teams NFL rankings: http://www.wgr550.com/Bills-finish-tops-in-rushing-near-bottom-in-sacks-/22338588 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buftex Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 As much as the Bills offense improved (with more room for improvement), the defense fell off almost as dramatically. Still though, 15th in avg. points allowed by defense is not awful...the most important stat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pine Barrens Mafia Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 Wait, with TT at QB how did we end up 28th in passing yards? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobobonators Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 At the end of the day losing TT for the Jags game was killer; and not being able to win one vs either the Skins, Eagles, or Giants. Unacceptable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkyMannn Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 Ironically looking quickly at those stat's it appears the Offense was the strength of the team. Exactly opposite what 2015 was to be Wait, with TT at QB how did we end up 28th in passing yards? The coaches kept the reins tight on him early to mid of the season.

bobobonators Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 Wait, with TT at QB how did we end up 28th in passing yards? With the Seahawks being 27th in passing last year how did they make it to the SB? They should get another QB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eball Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 Two words: Jordan Gay You can't argue with #1 in average kickoff return yards against. This was the only area of ST in which the Bills didn't fail miserably. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still though, 15th in avg. points allowed by defense is not awful...the most important stat. I would actually like to see that number adjusted for defensive scores, special teams scores, and scores following a three and out--meaning FG's (or even TD's) set up by good field position following either a turnover or a big ST return.

This was the only area of ST in which the Bills didn't fail miserably. Gay really justified his spot on the roster with this. We are the only team in the NFL with a KO specialist, and he made sure we led the league in this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
