The Buffalo Bills have been facing an uphill battle in recent weeks, resulting in three losses out of their last five games.
Even their two victories were narrow escapes, with the team benefiting from uncalled penalties on the last play of the game.
This inconsistency is becoming a major concern for head coach Sean McDermott, who openly admitted that his team is struggling to find their footing.
“Just too inconsistent overall,” McDermott said, via USA Today. “Not enough complementary football. Turned the ball over twice, I thought the defense got off to a slow start the first drive in particular. . . . Too much inconsistencies in the kicking game as well as just the offense overall. Some good plays and just not enough of them.”
In their most recent game against the Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday night, McDermott acknowledged that the Bills failed to perform consistently throughout the entire match.
“I thought we got off to a really good start in a rhythm and then after that, it was tough sledding,” McDermott said. “And that can’t happen against a good football team that is known for scoring points.”
This inconsistency is something that cannot be tolerated if the Bills have any hopes of securing a playoff spot.
Although they possess the talent and potential to make it to the postseason, their current 5-4 record offers no guarantees.
