Bills will look to solve this problem heading into Sunday's Miami game - BuffaloBills.com

In last Sunday's game, the Bills outgained the Steelers in total yards with 371 yards compared to Pittsburgh's 252 yards. Unfortunately, just because Buffalo had more yards doesn't mean that they scored enough points to win the game. 

The team fell short in the 23-16 loss and Sean McDermott told the media before Wednesday's practice that the offense needs to figure out more ways to score points this week against Miami. 

"Yards do not matter," McDermott said. "That's not what wins games, points matter, right? That's what wins games so that's what we're into is points and why we didn't come away with more points, so that's what we're trying to solve. We had opportunities as we all know, and I think that the first step is awareness of those opportunities and then solving why we didn't cash in on those opportunities."

Josh Allen noted after the game Sunday and again after practice on Wednesday that there were many plays that he wished he had back but knows he can learn from them. One of those plays was an overthrow by Allen downfield intended for Emmanuel Sanders. That one play could have made a big difference in the game and Allen understands going forward he needs to take advantage of the opportunities that the defenses give him. 

"When teams like the Steelers, like the Dolphins give you an opportunity to hit one of those now you better do it because they're not going to give you another opportunity to do so," Allen said. "So, it's just being smart with the football and taking advantage of the opportunities that are given. But ultimately, just trying to find completions and stay ahead of the sticks. That's what we were really good at last year."
