Special teams: B-

It started off looking like it would be a long day for kicker Stephen Hauschka, he missed his first field goal attempt, and his first PAT attempt. The kicker settled himself in though and converted his two other field goals, and his two other PAT’s.

Punter Corey Bojorquez had another strong game, he had just three punts but two of them landed inside the 10 yard line of Dallas. He did well to give Dallas poor field position throughout the game.

Coaching: B+

After the first drive by the Dallas offense it looked like they were going to score on every position, due to their ease of getting down the field. Head coach Sean McDermott and defensive coordinator Leslie Frazier made the proper adjustments, and the Dallas offense wouldn’t score until 4:03 in the fourth quarter.

The offense at time looked out matched, and out schemed by a tough Dallas defense, but offensive coordinator Brian Daboll took the right risks at the right time which payed off for the Buffalo offense. I also have to commend the trick play, it was the perfect play design called at the perfect time.
