Week 11 grades for the Buffalo Bills against the Cleveland Browns

Linebackers

In addition to the defensive line, the Bills linebackers also played a big role in shutting down the Browns’ run game as Matt Milano and Tyrel Dodson combined for 25 total tackles.

Milano in particular was one of the key players that helped secure the win for Buffalo. In addition to the tackles, he had a fumble recovery in the first half that helped set up the Bills for their second field goal. He also had a sack and three tackles for a loss.

As for Dodson, he stepped into the starting lineup in place of Tremaine Edmunds and after a shaky second half against the Vikings last week I thought he played very well. He finished the game as the team’s leading tackler and while he may not bring everything to this defense that Edmunds does, he showed why the team has confidence in him to step in if the need arises.

Grade: A+
