Evans believes his spike in production can be tied directly to the evolution of the team's offense through the course of the season.
"Early in the season you're still trying to define yourself as a team," said Evans. "What are you going to be? Early in the season you try rushing the ball and things like that and opponents for some reason get a bead on things. But once you hit your stride and there are no mental mistakes you operate more efficiently as an offense that helps everybody. It helps soften up defenses a little bit and gives you a little bit more room to work."
Bills tight end Robert Royal points to the offensive line shuffling of this season as an example of why their offense couldn't get going right from the start.
"We had Langston Walker coming in and Derrick Dockery coming in and Brad Butler at guard," said Royal. "It's a little different. In the beginning it's a little tougher because the coaching staff is still determining what will work and what won't. Once the coaching staff got comfortable with certain guys protecting and realizing that they call up certain plays that's when we started being more productive."
