WTF @ Bills post game thread

[skinsfaninok]

Bills offensive coordinator Brian Daboll stayed ahead of his Washington counterpart, defensive coordinator Jack Del Rio, all day, with his formations beating Del Rio’s coverages. Worse, Daboll’s unit was light years ahead of Del Rio’s in on-field execution, starting with converting a third-and-15 on Buffalo’s first drive — which started the Bills toward a touchdown on their first possession, marking the third straight game Washington’s defense has given up seven on the first series. Again, Washington couldn’t get off the field when it mattered; again, the front four that got so much hype coming into the season didn’t lay a glove on the quarterback.

Buffalo was 9 of 15 on third down Sunday. Through three weeks this season, teams are a collective 27 of 46 (.587) on that down against Washington. Per StatMuse, the worst single-season third-down percentage allowed is .567 by the Saints in 2011.

That isn’t a red alert; that’s Defcon Zero.
