Buffalo Bills: Report card for every position from Week 13 against 49ers
Tight Ends
Don’t look now but Dawson Knox has now caught a touchdown in two straight games. This was one of his most productive games of the season as he had four receptions for 27 yards along with that four-yard touchdown reception.
The coaching staff appears committed to seeing what they have with the second-year tight end as they had Tyler Kroft inactive leaving Knox as the primary pass catching tight end. If Knox continues to play like this, it makes this passing attack even more dynamic and tougher for defenses to try and stop.
Grade: B-
Offensive Line
The Buffalo Bills made a change this week on the offensive line by benching Brian Winters, moving Jon Feliciano to right guard, and inserting Ike Boettger at left guard. The returns were great as the offensive line had one of their best games of the season.
The 49ers have one of the better defensive lines in the NFL, even with all the injuries they have had, and the Bills won the battle in the trenches here. They protected Josh Allen as he was sacked only once and had three QB hits.
Even the run game was more effective and while Singletary did only get three yards per carry, this was against a defense that was allowing the eighth-lowest yards per carry average in the NFL. In the end this was an excellent performance by the offensive line that they can now build on moving forward.
Grade: B+
