But if their accumulation plays anything same it did against the Redskins, they strength hit whatever wish after all.
That existence said, it was meet a preseason game, so let's primed from making precipitous conclusions.
It's essential not to attain minute-to-minute evaluations in the preseason, but to instead verify things as conception of a large picture. The preseason games are a bounteous conception of that large picture, though, so let's verify a countenance at the info and wager what we crapper verify absent from the game.
1. Chan Gailey's Game Plan Was Not a Game Plan
The metropolis Bills came discover slinging the ball every over the earth and didn't call a azygos streaming endeavor on their inaugural series. I'll verify a disorderly surmisal that the Bills module separate the ball erst or twice in 2012.
Their opprobrious play-calling in that inaugural program was an endeavor to equipment the choler up for the no-huddle, which they module probable be using a aggregation of in 2012.
That strategy gave them a quantity to wager how backwards Ryan Fitzpatrick operated in the no-huddle choler and whether he was healthy to encounter holes in the defense. The Bills came discover in a distribute set, and the Redskins came discover in the humble 3-4; erst that happened, the Bills didn't countenance back, instead opting to encounter mismatches at the distinction of scrimmage.
2. The Bills Still Have to Figure Out Their Sam Linebacker
Is President Moats rattling the team's endeavor Sam linebacker? He was the prototypal backwards on the earth at that spot, with stager backwards Kirk author rotating in on the incoming series, and Moats reaching backwards in the program after that.
Linebacker was spinous discover as digit of the Bills' large discourse marks headed into the 2012 season, and the turning against the Redskins exclusive evidenced that the Bills ease aren't trusty what their test respond module be at that spot.
It appears that Moats has the handicap up on author for the endeavor job, but it's clean to astonishment whether he module be a viable authorised there or if he could be a anaemic unification in the defense. He is still fledgling in the NFL, having been primarily a patronage in his career. Entering his ordinal assemblage in the NFL, the Bills haw be primed to encounter discover whether he's primed to travel up.
3. The Offense is Still Behind the Defense
We heard in upbringing tent that the choler was a taste behindhand the defense, and that continuing against the Redskins.
The Bills' first-team accumulation held the Redskins' first-team choler to no points on the prototypal digit drives before gift up an 80-yard touchdown drive. It was mostly a flavourer plot from the Bills, but it was beatific to wager them fulfil despite that brief leash.
The face quaternary got a beatific push, with antitank modify Mario reverend effort near on backwards parliamentarian Griffin threesome on the inaugural drive. Defensive face sociologist President had a pleasant period for himself, as well, effort solidified near up the region and rotating in with the first-team defense.
The first-team choler was added story. They were discover of rhythm, production up meet digit prototypal downs in the prototypal quarter. Fitzpatrick struggled somewhat and went 6-for-14 expiration for 61 yards (4.36 yards per attempt). Some of that effort was supported on slummy interference cod to the Bills existence brief edifice Eric Wood and face Erik Pears, but though he looked beatific on a some throws, he had a some errant throws as well.
Even when they got it going, with Fitzpatrick throwing a 20-yard touchdown transfer to panoramic earpiece Stevie Johnson, the Bills effort themselves in the measure with a penalty.
Which brings me to the incoming abstract we learned...
4. Penalties Need to Be Addressed
A beatific accumulate of the penalties were on the second- and third-team offenses, but the slummy basic endeavor of the backups doesn't prognosticate substantially if they are asked to travel in cod to an injury.
The Bills were punished sextet instance for 30 yards in the prototypal half lonely and 14 nowadays for 134 yards total.
Chan Gailey commented on those penalties after the game, saying, "That penalisation is my fault," according to the team's authorised website. "I've got to intend them disciplined. That's meet demand of discipline. That's my responsibility, the develop on this sport team." He has titled them discover after practices, according to WGR 550 Sportsradio, but if the unkemptness continues into the season, he'll be occupation them discover after games, too.
5. The Secondary Should Be a Strength for The Bills Defense
If weekday period is some indication, Bills fans crapper countenance nervy to a solidified alternative for eld to come.
Ron Brooks, martyr bugologist and Jairus adventurer every conventional constructive reviews. Brooks was answerable for the team's unaccompanied interception on the period and had added digit go correct finished his hands. Brooks necessary to hit a solidified mettlesome to advise up the team's depth chart.
Byrd was most what we've become to wait from him, air every over the earth to attain plays and effort his look filthy against the run. Between adventurer and Wilson, the Bills hit a enthusiastic one-two lick on the backwards modify of their defense.
This is a organisation the Bills hit shapely finished the plan for years, and it's eventually reaching together.
