Bills sweep season series from Dolphins

Should have had three-and-out, but bounced back with stop on next set of downs.

Are you serious? Another safety on a screwed up shotgun snap? Rookie running back Karlos Williams scored twice and LeSean McCoy also scored on a 48-yard run. Buffalo 9 – Miami 0.

I’m exhausted of writing sentences that include Miami “needing” to do something. As for McCoy, we’ll have to wait and see how he does with the short turnaround. Miami moving the ball. Dan Carpenter had kicked a 43-yard field goal on Buffalo’s previous drive. Darren Rizzi is not happy.

Despite a sore left ankle, the second-year player had the most yards receiving for the Bills since Terrell Owens had 197 in 2009.

Then, after the Dolphins closed to 19-14, Watkins had Grimes beaten by a step and didn’t break stride in catching Taylor’s perfectly placed pass in the right corner of the end zone.

“Uh, me, I messed up”, cornerback Brent Grimes said.

The Dolphins generated enough offense to win the game and didn’t turn the ball over but once again they couldn’t close the scoring. Needed 86 for the touchdown. “Getting the angles we wanted, getting the match ups we wanted with the safeties and our running backs”. The penalty yards do not tell the whole story as the Dolphins continued to start deep in Bills territory and one penalty negated a 30 plus yard return by Damien Williams. It helped that their opponents started a crew of linebackers that struggle against the run, specifically when they have to move from sideline-to-sideline and when they change directions. “They get it, and we appreciate that”.

Ryan Tannehill’s pass to Dion Sims was incomplete. And a late hit out of bounds! First, here was my reasoning for picking Miami.

There’s the Dolphins defense! Sack (Jordan Phillips). Tackle for loss.

Tight end Jordan Cameron seems confused by alignments/shifts today.

Taylor completed 11-of-12 for 181 yards – nearly all of it to Watkins, who’d played only once since Buffalo’s win at Miami. The Bills are 4-4, only half-a-game out of the final playoff spot, and have a chance to control their own destiny to finally end the playoff drought. The refs aren’t helping, but the defense needs to find consistency.

The Ryan Tannehill-led passing attack was sloppy and lacked finish. Jarvis Landry is up there too.

The first-year coach emphasized on a better executing of the plays called.

In the fourth, the Bills would ultimately seal the game with another long touchdown run.

It was a good game for the offensive line. Just wait ’til they come back. That accomplishment, along with the win, were something for the offensive line to hang their collective hat on Sunday.

The team announced that Folk will not be available for field goals or kickoffs.

Buffalo recovers the onside kick. The potential of each was known, but the results had yet to present themselves due to McCoy’s persistent hamstring injury and Williams’ Week 4 concussion.

Both of these teams are lagging on 3-4 and have had more downs than ups this season so far. The Bills also tried a pair of slow developing screen plays that were blown up, and then a flea flicker (that was intended for Woods if it had been thrown) that was figured out immediately by the Dolphins defense.
