And another 5 vs Wilson. They’ve come in spurts. Hopefully we can get a bit more consistent there 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean that in that RW threw the one picked by White last week was almost a guaranteed TD vs one that saves a field goal? Google "drive start expected points chart".

Same deal as the fact that turnovers come in spurts. Sacks (and every measureable statistic, really) come slowly sometimes and fast at other times. Sacks tend to come in certain games, basically the ones where the matchups were good and also the ones where the other team got significantly behind and had to give up the run. Not just for Buffalo. For every team, in every season. Edited November 15, 2020 by Thurman#1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sammy Watkins' Rib Posted November 15, 2020 Share Posted November 15, 2020 On 11/13/2020 at 6:50 AM, Just in Atlanta said: Differential is a great indicator of success. We're no. 9 at plus 3. Only one above us (the browns) are likely not a playoff team. To add to that, there was that thread a few weeks ago of 5-2 teams with negative point differential. Basically only 1 out of 3 in NFL history had gone on to make the playoffs. This year that was the Bills, Bears and Browns. It was obvious three weeks ago just as it is today which team would be the one to make the playoffs and which two would likely not. Fast forward a couple weeks and Bills now are +9 point differential and 7-2, Browns are -31 and 5-3, Bears are -12 and 5-4. Neither the Bears or Browns are currently in playoff position in the standings. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not to be a Debbie Downer, but that one feast game kinda skews our stats and standing. Without them, we'd be -1 in TO differential. Which is more indicative of our overall performance. I'm sure you can say that about almost any team though 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I'm not talking about other teams, or how the Bills compare to other teams. I'm talking about being consistent with turnovers instead of feast or famine.

Charles Romes Posted November 15, 2020 Share Posted November 15, 2020 It’s a little surprising that 1.5 turnovers per game gets you in the top 4. In the 70s and 80s that would probably be bottom 4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
