Buffalo Bills Biggest First Four Weeks Takeaways

Buffalo Bills Biggest First Four Weeks Takeaways

Author: Blue Wire October 1, 2024 Duration: 56:44

On this episode of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran watched the game film and analyzed the PFF grades and has a series of his biggest Buffalo Bills takeaways following their Week four blowout loss at Baltimore on Sunday night.

It's just one game and the Bills are 3-1 a month into the season. If Bills fans and probably the team was offered winning three of their first four before the season started most would've jumped on that. The sky isn't falling and it's worth recognizing that. With that said this was an ugly loss and it's perfectly reasonable to raise questions with multiple areas of this team on the heels of it.

That starts with the safeties and Patrick talks about being convinced the Bills have a significant safety problem and wonders if the solution is currently on the roster. One thing he's convinced about it's that the solution wasn't on the field Sunday night. Taylor Rapp and particularly Damar Hamlin were hard to watch against the Ravens.

Patrick also wonders why Curtis Samuel hasn't fit into the Bills offense at all a full month into the season and starts to recall that this type of player seems to come and go every year. The difference however is that past candidates weren't costing $8 million. Also, where's Dawson Knox?

Most the takeaways from Baltimore, thankfully are considered just as bad night for the Bills and not recurring/chronic problems. Patrick talks about the coaching and both sides of the lines being awful against the Ravens but still having a fair amount of confidence in all those areas. That plus a look ahead and much more.
