The Buffalo Bills faced a litany of criticism following their surprising exit during the divisional round of last year’s NFL playoffs. They appeared listless for much of the game, lacking a proper response for what the Cincinnati Bengals threw at them on defense — and unable to perform sound, routine tackles / performances on defense for far too many snaps. We’ve gone over all of it so many times, that we don’t need to fully rehash it in this space. But the fact of the matter is that the Bills have failed to meet the expectations put on them, by their own doing, Bills Mafia, or those outside with ever-ready analytical thoughts.
