Snap Counts vs Steelers

[BuffaloBillyG]

Love that Hawes was on the field so much. Wonder if they came in with a snap counts for Hairston. I also find it interesting that Keon was the WR with the least snaps aside from Cooks who has only been here a few days.

 

I thought we would see Gilliam more. And what was the point of elevating Latu for so few snaps? Ray Davis was super efficient on such a small snap count as well. I think that was the second best game of his career.

We normally dress 3 TE, if you loved seeing Hawes so much, you would have hated if he went down and we only had 1 TE. Would have significantly altered the game plan…. also Special Teams.

Latu was elevated as a 3rd tight end in case someone is injured, and to play special teams.  Most 3rd tight ends do some combo of that like Morris did for Buffalo for a couple of years, we just use Hawes more because he's such an impact blocker and kincaids missed so much time this year.

Interesting - based on snap counts, Shavers was WR1 or 2 in this game.

Only 5 receptions in this entire game made by WR. Kind of nuts.

 

Would love to see Cooks earn a higher snap count.

Would expect Hairston and Hancock’s snap counts to increase against the Bengals. 
 

Situationally, Poyer and White made sense against what the Steelers present.
