Week 1, Bills v. Rams, 09/08/2022, GAME BALLS

Quick review, Josh always gets an automatic game ball, I pick 3 O and 3 D and let you all have at it.

 

Special teams kick off coverage (minus Bass-o-Matic's brain fart) - great coverage, Rams had no start past 25, one on the 10.  Rams just couldn't get anything going field position wise.  Given all the preseason hand-wringing, it was great to see Wrap, Matakevich, Formosa, etc. just smother the Rams kick return game.

Greg "Groot" Rousseau - Single sack, but he was all over the field making tackles and cleaning things up.

Von Miller - NFL 2022 season sack leader, made a massive difference in the improved play of the D line and secondary.

Carlos "Boogie" Basham - One sack, one INT.  MahmahmahmahmahBoogieShoes....

 

Stephon "They Call Me Mister" Diggs - Man amongst boys.  Jaylen Ramsey should learn to keep his *****in' mouth shut.

Devin "Motor" Singletary - Gave the offense the spark they needed the entire game, and unlike his fellow RB's, protected the rock.  Let's hope we're done with platooning Motor and Moss.

Gabriel "Welcome Back" Davis - Another man amongst boys out there.  We basically dismantled the defending champs in their house, and that first TD set the tone.

 

WHO YA GOT?

The other Dlineman. Rousseau 1 sack, Jordan Phillips 1.5, AJ Epenesa 1.5, Basham with a pick and a sack. 
 

Love for Reggie Gilliam who I thought played great. 
 

Spencer Brown was fantastic

 

Sam Martin for looking pretty on the sideline and doing an awesome job on short notice.

Stats don't show it, but thought Crowder was huge in settling things down after the McKenzie fumble.  Handled the punt return duties well and made some nice conversions in the second half.  I was one of those idiots that thought we should cut him for Blackshear or Hodgins after the first two weeks of camp.

I'm also said idiot.

Definitely the defensive line. Play like this all year, and this team is going to be solid at all three phases of the game!

 

Josh Allen...one pick was not his fault and he looked pretty close to how he ended on a terror during last year's playoffs.

 

O-Line did well.

 

A-overall only because of the fumbles in running game.

 

Let's Go Buffalo!

True Crowder had some key catches.

I stopped short when he kept doing designed runs for Josh up 24-10, and kept trotting Moss out there until he coughed it up.  I'm nitpicking, admittedly.  Otherwise, Dorsey called a helluva game.

Some of those were reads where he kept and moss should just go down up 21 instead of fighting but Dorsey has some blame there for sure

Prepare for abuse from the Edmunds haterz....

Haha I’m one of them!

 

He was undoubtably all over, made convincing tackles and was in the thick of things in both run support and passing lanes all night. 
 

I don’t think he’ll get the $$$ he wants here, but he definitely played well tonight.

I agree with this. I was surprised he even made the team, but I thought he played a great game today. Did he return after he got hurt? 

 

Yes he did the only one down that didn't return was Oliver outside of the 1 play.  I'm hoping that its just a precaution and he'll be good to go next Monday. He has 11 days to recover.

How about Sean McDermott? 10-10 and 3 turnovers, he got that team focused and bloodthirsty. 

 

I'm still butthurt from 13 seconds.  Tonight, I didn't understand the slavish adherence to Moss when Motor was clearly the superior back.  The defensive adjustments in the 2nd half were a thing of beauty.  If he keeps going, he'll get a game ball from me.  Eventually...
