Offense — better on the field: On the field, the offense has played better than 98% of the league, ahead of a player grade of 62 out of 100.
Defense — better on paper: The defense's players grade 55 out of 100, but on the field that side has played better than 33% of the league.
This season: 5-1. Last time out, they beat Las Vegas Raiders 33-30.
Since preseason: Up 1.2 points since the preseason, mostly because its offense players graded up (Josh Allen +14 and Dalton Kincaid +7) and its defense played worse than before (better than 42% of the league, now better than 33%).
Written from this club's own numbers: its grade, the offense, defense, special teams and coach that make it up, its last games, its division, and its depth chart. Which facts show up depends on where this club is unusual, so no two teams get the same summary. The site builds the sentences from those numbers. A chatbot does not write them.
