The Bills tend to get their sea legs in October/November.
Lookig ahead- The Division is still vulnerable. 1 game behind in the loss column. In the Wild card chase, plenty of contenders are struggling as well.
Offense- Can't get out of their own way. However- one positive is that turnovers are wayyyy down. Instead of our 3-4 a game with Bledsoe, we have been pretty good with ball security. Sacks too.
We need to give the ball to McGahee 30 times a game. It works for Tampa and Cadillac Williams. It works for the Steelers.
Defense is giving up tons of rushing yards, but they are keeping the Bills in the game somewhat. We have given up 24,19,19,& 7 points. 69 in 4 games isn't horrible.
We do need more turnovers, and to halt the penalties that continue drives. Texans got their only score off a penalty. Atlanta got 2 roughing the Passer penalties to sustain their opening score. Today it seemed that there was a call on every 3rd down play. (Spare me the NFL Officials conspiracy theory)
If anyone expected Losman to be instantly great pout of the box didn't have realistic expectations. This team has to play to it's strength. Holcomb isn't that strength.
