The Bills continued their dominant start to the season with a convincing win over the Jaguars. Josh Allen's exceptional performance, combined with a strong running game and creative play-calling, has the Bills offense firing on all cylinders. Their ability to stay ahead of the sticks and capitalize on mismatches makes them a formidable opponent.
  • The Bills scored touchdowns on their first five possessions.
  • Josh Allen ranks highly in several key quarterback metrics, including EPA per dropback and dropback success rate.
  • The Bills effectively utilize bubble screens due to their strong run game, accurate quarterback, and excellent blocking by receivers.

Shownotes Transcript

Nate Tice is joined by Charles McDonald to give their thoughts and takeaways from Week 3 of NFL action. The duo start by recapping the Monday night games and discussing just how bad the Cincinnati Bengals defense is, and what's going right with the Buffalo Bills that's allowed them to cruise to a 3-0 start — including a dominant win over the Jacksonville Jaguars last night.

Next, Nate and Charles deep dive on the rest of the 3-0 teams and try to determine what's going right and how good each team is. They dialogue on the Minnesota Vikings, Seattle Seahawks, Pittsburgh Steelers and Kansas City Chiefs.

Later, the hosts take a look at some struggling players and teams and determine how concerned we should be. Nate outlines what's broken about the Dallas Cowboys defense, whether the Caleb Williams and Anthony Richardson panic is overblown and how teams are attacking the San Francisco 49ers defense.
