Always good to the beat the Jets. Few thoughts:

1) Neither in this world nor an alternate one is it a good idea to run Tolbert wide when you have Shady McCoy on your team. Keep him between the tackles, please.  McCoy was as usual the most dynamic playmaker on the Bills. Like the way he was utilized today in both running and passing.

2) Generally thought that the offensive play calling was acceptable, minus the Tolldozer sweeps. Tyrod hit some throws down the middle, which was encouraging. The INT in the end zone was fluky but the throw itself was high and behind Clay. Jury remains out on the QB position.

3) Wide receivers...yikes. Great individual play by Matthews and a couple nice catches by Zay Jones but beyond that it really didn't seem like there was a lot of separation.

4) I like the fact that there were no strange use of timeouts that Rex made famous. Strange feeling to have all three at the end of the game. Good debut by McDermott at the helm.

5) defense could be good this year but hard to draw any conclusions against the Jets, they aren't exactly an offensive juggernaut. Really liked the run defense...let's hope the shoulder injury to Gaines is something short term.

Bottom line: 1-0 and on top of the AFC East...
