Great Performance by the Bills. No doubt it was good to see the team finally win a game they were supposed to. There were still some break downs in the passing game which I do not think can ever be corrected, until a new QB is at the helm (its in Bledsoes head now). But a great effort.

QB:
WOuld almost say that there were not enough plays made to grade; however, a nice pass to Moulds on the fade route. Confidence grew after that with a nice pass to Euhus on 3rd down. Still lokked shaky when pressure came from the ends.

Grade B

RB:
McGahee carried the ball strong all day long. Once again We got a chance to see what is becoming i his trademark. THE STIFF ARM. McGahee showed the durability to carry the ball 30 times and not wear down. One huge plus side was the effective blizt pick up by McGahee. The coaching staff said in the past they were reluctant to play him because he did not do a good job of picking up the blitz. Joe Burns ran well in garbage time.
Grade A

WR:
Nothing Major from this group. The weather conditions play a major role and you can also attribute the fact that the Bills lead the entire game. Nice catch by Moulds in the corner of the endzone. And Euhus redeemed himself for the holding call on the goaline (bad call anyways).
Grade C

OL:
Solid performace from this group. Opened up holes all day long for McGahee and gave Bledsoe time when he did drop back to pass.
Grade A

DL:
Two Words (or One Name) - SAM ADAMS - Most dominat performance sing opening game 2003. Sam abused the rookie center pressuring McCown up the middle. Forced the Cards to run wide. Ron Edwards played extreemly well, in the under tackle position. WOuld like to see more from Kelsey, Denney, and Schoebl.
Grade A

LB:
Not a standout day for this group, but due in part to the plays made up front. But a solid job as usual. Spikes and Fletcher are both derserving of Pro Bowl consideration at the half way point.Who is that 3rd LB we have...He must have been dressed as Casper the friendly ghost. I never see him doing anything out there. (Actually haave not seen anything all year)
Grade B

DB:
Solid job by this unit. Nice coverage on a bunch of talented young receivers. This units overall play was exemplified by Rashad Bakers play in the forth quarter
Grade A

ST:
Another Kickoff Return for a TD!!!! Is that Dante Hall back there? It was rumored earlier that McGee would not play on ST's. That was a back breaker. Clements did anawsome job. The return game gave our offense the edge all game. Moorman and Lindell played well in the weather conditions.
Grade A+

Coaching:
MM got his second win. CONGRATS! Made the right calls all day long Jerry Gray finally realized you dont have to BLITZ evry down. Now lets carry this to a real opponent next week.
Grade A

OVER ALL GRADE A
