QB Josh Allen

We’ve come to expect a lot from Josh Allen, and when it’s not there from the quarterback, even he can have some critics. Allen did not have the worst game of his career, but it was the worst of his season. Allen took another long loss on a sack, turned the ball over twice, and forced the ball a little more than we were used to seeing in the first quarter of the season. Time to see if he can revert back to good Allen now.

HC Sean McDermott

That game just looked… different. The Bills did not appear  ready to play at any point and that falls on the coaching staff and their boss, Sean McDermott. Buffalo had plenty of mental errors from drops and penalties (10 in total). Then when the Bills got punched in the face, there was little response, especially defensively. No reason to think the troops can’t be rallied, though.

CB Josh Norman

We got to see why Josh Norman was heavily criticized during his time in Washington. Not good the entire game, aside from a solo tackle on Henry, who also sent him into another dimension with a stiff arm. In coverage, Norman was probably worse… AJ Brown carved him up. Plus, two defensive pass interference calls against him, helping extend Tennessee drives.

CB Taron Johnson

Game after game, Taron Johnson is being picked on. It doesn’t look like it’s going to get any better, either. The Bills might be missing a random guy because of this… EJ Gaines. He opted out at the start of the year and he would’ve probably replaced Johnson by now in the slot.

WR Andre Roberts

Two turnovers were partly to blame on Andre Roberts. On Allen’s first interception, he tipped the ball up and Malcolm Butler snatched it. Late in the game, he fumbled on a kick return. He also, overall, wasn’t good returning anything, even losing a yard on a punt. Roberts should bounce back.

RB Devin Singletary

Yeldon in the good and Devin Singletary in the bad? Who would’ve thought? Singletary was pretty productive when given opportunities this season, but he wasn’t against the Titans. Singletary had an ugly 2.3 yards per carry. Better days ahead should be expected.

LB Tremaine Edmunds

While hopeful for another step forward in 2020… that hasn’t happened for Tremaine Edmunds. Against the run, he’s often late to make a decision, like on Henry’s one-yard touchdown run. Edmunds was right there but didn’t realize where the ball-carrier was. In pass coverage, Edmunds hasn’t ever really been great either and in zone… he find himself giving up areas over the middle.

DE Mario Addison/ DE Jerry Hughes

In our stock up, we mentioned the middle of the defensive line as good, but the whole group looked bad because of the outside rushers. There was no edge set all throughout the game. And not to mention: Ryan Tannehill was not sacked once.
