5 reasons the Buffalo Bills lost in Week 11 to the Indianapolis Colts

Drops by Dawson Knox

For the Buffalo Bills, there is some of these issues that have been there all season but it hasn’t resulted in too many losses and the team has been able to get by. However, this is a new one for the Buffalo Bills as Dawson Knox had trouble catching the ball.

The struggles by Knox is surprising because this is something that he did have issues with during his first two years with the league but it has not been much of an issue this year. He still finished the day as the leading receiver with six receptions for 80 yards but could have been much better if he caught a few of those passes.

In a game where the Buffalo Bills were seemingly facing an uphill battle all game, they couldn’t afford to beat themselves with mistakes like this. The drops, similar to penalties, are a great way to stop a promising drive in it’s tracks and that is what happened too many times against the Colts.
