The Buffalo Bills played a poor second half and went down 27-20 late in the fourth quarter, but they didn’t fold. Instead, they were able to get solid contributions from guys on both sides of the ball to pull out a remarkable win on Sunday against Tampa Bay. The team now sits at 4-2, and has plenty of reasons to be feeling excited after taking down a Buccaneers team filled with a ton of talent.

 

Here are five takeaways from Sunday’s action at New Era Field:

 

Shady consistent and finally in the end zone

Thompson makes immediate impact

Breakdowns in coverage

Mistake-free from Tyrod

O-line shuffle continues

What the heck happened on that end of the first half debacle? The #Bills say they poorly miscalculated.

2 or 3 poor throws is mistake free?

 

I'm not complaining, just pointing out a few hiccups in a very good game.

Tyrod Taylor answered his critics in comeback win over Bucs @john_wawrow

http://pro32.ap.org/article/qb-taylor-answers-critics-rallying-bills-beat-bucs

ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. (AP) — Rather than focus on his critics, Bills quarterback Tyrod Taylor said he was going to spend the week concentrating on beating the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

 

It was time well spent.

ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. – It isn’t so much that the Buffalo Bills are winning this year. It’s how.

 

By not folding down the stretch. And, for another change, by being opportunistic enough at the end of a game to cash in on the other team’s bone-headed blunder.

 


@TheBillsWire

Marcell Dareus finally has a report card to bring home. How did the rest of the #Bills fare? http://billswire.usatoday.com/2017/10/23/bills-buccaneers-nfl-week-7-report-card-tyrod-taylor-jameis-winston/

Per @salmaiorana. I mean it felt unusual the #Bills won in that fashion but ...wow.

@BuffaloDotCom

Although camera angles, lack of replays were infuriating at times, #Bills commentators were a little redeeming: http://buffalonews.com/2017/10/23/foxs-tv-crew-unbiased-times-misses-big-picture/

 

 

The camera angles on the FGs and extra points were bad. They showed them from the opposite endzone, behind the kicker. I couldn't see the ball on any of them.

Adam Schein makes sense of another wild week of NFL action by sorting out the good from the bad from the ugly. Find out what he thinks about the ever-changing NFC South after Week 7.


3) Buffalo Bills
I love Sean McDermott. I love the toughness of his Bills (4-2). I love the resolve. I love the energy they give to their fans while playing at home. And I love how they keep winning close games -- with Sunday's come-from-behind, 30-27 win over Tampa Bay the latest example.
One particular player who deserves some love: Tyrod Taylor. What a fine all-around performance (268 passing yards, 53 rushing yards) by a quarterback who rarely gets his due.

A lot can go wrong in the time it takes you to walk from your couch to the refrigerator.

 

Like, for example, the Bucs blowing a fourth-quarter lead.

 

Seconds after Tampa Bay jumped in front of Buffalo 27-20 Sunday, Bills quarterback Tyrod Taylor hit a wide open Deonte Thompson for a 44-yard gain.

 

That was bad. And then it got worse.
