Put a team away… again
While this Bills team is clicking all over the place right now, nothing has been more impressive than one thing in particular. The way these guys are now putting teams away. This, in fact, was their worst trait of all earlier this season. Think back to Buffalo being up 28-3 against the Rams in Week 3. There’s no one that could envision such a scenario playing out again.
The Broncos are a flawed and beaten up team. Still, putting these guys away was as important as it comes.
After notching a field goal to go up 38-13 just before the end of the third quarter, the Bills weren’t even close to being done producing or scoring. The Bills put the Broncos away with two game-eating drives in the final frame, and like last week against the Steelers, running backs Devin Singletary and Zack Moss came to life in this period.
En route to scoring 10 more points, the Bills had a 12-play, 86-yard drive to start the fourth quarter which lasted nearly eight minutes. That’s half of the quarter… all Buffalo.
Then the Bills’ second drive of the last quarter was only 12 seconds long, but heck, can you really complain? Singletary scored on a 51-yard carry.
Buffalo putting away bad teams is something that made one nervous just earlier this year. But once again… this change is happening at the right time. Heading into the playoffs the Bills will want to be confident in doing this with better opposition on the way.
Icing on the cake. 😎
