After the game the Buffalo Bills had against the Las Vegas Raiders, Pro Football Focus raised the team’s offensive line in their weekly NFL-wide rankings.
However, the breakdown is curious.
Right tackle Spencer Brown has his struggles. But his efforts against the Raiders were praised by many.
PFF was not among them.
Instead, despite the Bills moving up six spots to the No. 17 overall position, Brown’s game was criticized. Dion Dawkins, who did a positive game in his own right, was the one praised.
Here’s how PFF currently sees the Bills offensive line heading into Week 3:
17. BUFFALO BILLS (UP 6)
Projected Week 3 starters:
LT Dion Dawkins
LG Connor McGovern
C Mitch Morse
RG O’Cyrus Torrence
