That loss yesterday was almost predictable and not because it was a trap game or a look ahead game.
This game was lost because our depth was simply tested a little too much.
McCoy, Woods, Watkins, Dareus, Henderson, Aaron Williams out is just a bit too much to cope without.
Kyle Williams has been dominant in the middle but at the midway point he's probably a bit worn out. Dareus would be providing much needed support.
Missing McCoy speaks for itself. Both Watkins and Woods out pretty much removes any hope or threat of a passing game. That's way too one dimensional.
I still think that although Mills has been steady he is a weak link and he was beat badly yesterday too many times.
With all that the Bills were still in that game minus an under thrown ball from Tannehill that Stills came back for. In years past any Bills team with all those players missing would have gotten beat badly. We were in it at least.
IMO this is a playoff team that just needs to get healthy and practice together. Even guys who did play yesterday were either out or limited most of the week. That doesn't help going into a road game against a division rival.
Side notes:
Tyrod was forced to throw yesterday and I think that was a good experience for him. He made some throws he doesn't usually even attempt. That could open up the playbook moving forward.
Lawson looked real good. Seems like he'll be able to provide another pass rush threat from the outside or even inside. Could be calling this guy Sack Lawson soon enough...
Lorenzo Alexander - still don't get it - how is he this good? He literally looks like Von Miller out there
Re-Sign Brown ASAP. Having him Preston and Ragland would be impressive.
Gillislee should have been given the workload yesterday rather than risking McCoy and using him as a decoy.
