Special Teams

It was not a good night for Tyler Bass as he made a 28-yard field goal but then would go on to miss his next two field goal attempts. For a player who has been almost automatic the second half of the year, the weather likely played a factor as the kicker on the other sideline, Justin Tucker, is as good as the NFL has ever seen and he missed two on Saturday night.

On a night where the wind had the impact it did, it didn’t seem to bother Corey Bojorquez too much. He continued his strong season with four punts for an average of 36.8 yards with two downed inside the 20 yard line.

The Buffalo Bills were in a defensive struggle against the Baltimore Ravens for most of the game and having a player like Bojorquez who could keep the Ravens deep in their end went a long way to helping them secure the win.

Grade: C

Buffalo Bills Final Grade

For a second straight week, the Buffalo Bills found a way to win. The elements were not working in the Bills favor as they are a pass-heavy offense and Josh Allen struggled to connect on those deep passes in the wind.

However, this team showed why they are one of the best in the NFL. The defense, facing a tough challenge going against Lamar Jackson, stepped up and didn’t really give up much of anything. They contained the MVP and when needed made the plays that propelled them to a win and a trip to the AFC Championship Game.
