On this episode of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran is joined by Matt Warren from SB Nation to go through the Buffalo Bills week two grades, positionally following their lopsided win over the New York Jets in addition to discussing other team matters, taking a look at the Miami Dolphins and discussing some things going on around the league.
The Bills are now a few days removed from easily putting away the Jets on the road this past Sunday, 30-10. As they did last week and will for the duration of the season, Patrick and Matt go through the Bills roster positionally to discuss how they performed before ultimately assigning a grade to that group for the week. As you'd suspect in a 20 point road win the highest marks are going to come in the trenches, as Buffalo was excellent on both sides of the line. They also played dramatically better at a position that's been a huge concern this season (safety) and for good reason. Was this start of something good on the back end or the product of playing a very week passing attack offense?
Conversely, the Bills didn't get a whole lot from Josh Allen, at least by his standards anyway but the thing is----they literally didn't need it. Josh's numbers weren't the least bit gaudy but in fairnes he didn't have a single turnover worthy play either. How much does Matt ding Allen for the pedestrian box score stat line?
They also take a look at an 0-2 Miami team coming to Buffalo on Thursday night. Are we going to see a Dolphins team that plays like their lives depend on it, or are we going to see the version that's ready to quit on their head coach if not quarterback as well, if they haven't already? That plus some things from around the NFL and much more.
