Bills vs. Texans All-22 Coaches Film Reviews


Recommended Posts

Good enough to beat Houston if we had reasonable special teams and average discipline to avoid penalties.

 

Josh would be 3-2 in his first NFL starts after playing only two seasons of big boy football in college.    Don't expect great from a rookie qb, just Good Enough.

 

Big Ben was 160 ypd average on 17 TD's and 11 picks his rookie year.  Similar teams too, great defense, not a lot of offensive genius helping him along the way.

Allen is not ready to carry the offense. The offense has to carry him during the learning phase. Scary thought ain't it?

This is highly recommended if you have subscription access:

 

 

As each game goes by for Josh Allen, defenses are getting more and more film on his skills and how offensive coordinator Brian Daboll is having to scheme for the raw quarterback. Which is scary because the results thus far have been putrid.

 

The Bills offense currently ranks 32nd in Football Outsiders’ DVOA metric and I don’t see it getting much better, even when Allen returns to the lineup. He left Sunday’s loss to the Texans in the third quarter with a right elbow injury that reportedly is to his ulnar collateral ligament. He is expected to get a second opinion.

 

Daboll has predominantly gone to half-field reads in every aspect of the passing game. He utilizes motion frequently to help Allen identify the coverage of man versus zone. Sometimes he will have Allen simply read whether the defense is in a one-high safety look or a two-high coverage. It’s a strategy that cannot be sustained long-term but, given the situation, is their best option.

 

Allen struggles to see the field and read coverages pre- to post-snap, and generally he lacks trust in his accuracy. All of those weaknesses have made the jobs of opposing defensive coordinators that much easier. If the Bills offense doesn’t get the coverage it expected, the chances of a play succeeding are slim.

It really is worth every penny...

That non pass interference call raised my antennae immediately. It was confirmed on the subsequent ticky tack D holding call the Texans got and the attempted D holding call on Tre that was negated when the umpire explained the rules to the ref who threw the flag. Houston got home cooking all day long.

Joe B: Buffalo Bills All-22 Review - Week 6 vs. Houston Texans

(WKBW) - After an upset victory over an AFC South foe, the Buffalo Bills set back out to try and do the same thing -- only this time on the road. Instead, the Bills coughed up a late lead while witnessing the implosion of their backup quarterback down the stretch, which led to a 20-13 defeat to the Houston Texans.
 
Up next the Bills have questions at the quarterback position, and are back on the road for the fourth time in five weeks -- taking on a 1-5 Indianapolis Colts team that is desperate for a victory. Before that happens, first is an in-depth look at the individual performances from the Week Six loss to the Texans, which dropped the Bills to a 2-4 record on the 2018 season.
 
Each week, WKBW.com will review the film, and bring you how each player graded out in the previous week, with the help of the Game Pass app on NFL.com. You can see a full explanation of how the grades get calculated at the bottom of the article.
 
Before we get to the individual grades, first some takeaways from the game to help fill in some of the gaps between the grades that you'll see:
 
1) Pocket probs with Josh Allen
2) The Bills cannot start Nathan Peterman
3) Milano is flashing Pro Bowl level ability
4) Eddie Yarbrough dominant in the run game
5) I have no idea why Miami released Jordan Phillips
 
How the grades work:
 
Every Tuesday, when the All-22 film becomes available, we’ll go through and watch each play and every player on each play as many times as necessary, to assess a letter grade for that game to the player. It is a subjective analysis, and it’s important to note that we do not know the play calls and full responsibilities. With that written, the grades stem from technique, outstanding efforts, and presumed liability.
 
The study accounts only for players that take a snap on offense or defense, and players with under 15 snaps -- unless they have a significant impact on the game -- will not factor into weekly rankings.
 
Season-long grades have been tallied and documented, with an individual game’s grade weighted for how much the player was on the field in a given week. Those will be available starting in Week Two.
