As one blocker disengages, the remaining blocker often gets beaten. This may be synchronization/familiarity.Bills Defensive Line was penetrating playside multiple times. Of the 7 plays, 5 times (#1,#2,#3,#6,#7) had a Bills defender attacking playside and causing some disruption. On those plays, 3 of them (#1,#2,#7) resulting in plus-yardage. 5 yards, 6 yards, 12 yards. This is a testament to Williams' reaction, hard-cut, and backside vision. This may also speak to the Bills' backside/cutback discipline on defense.Bills' LBs seem to get caught up in traffic too often, attacking the LOS as Williams is cutting away from them.On two plays Williams shows a half-spin move that nearly worked (#2, #6). If he learns to finish that spin, it could be very effective. As it was, it still put defenders on the ground, one of whom managed to wrap up Williams' legs.Andre Williams makes very strong cuts which is impressive, but also loses a bit of speed on the cut. His vision and initial cut is very impressive and looks good. It would be nice if he could explode a little bit more out of the cut. He is still strong enough to power into tackles after a cut.He also is very good at making strong little cuts. These are more subtle and harder to see, but are key to getting into a smaller hole and to turn solid hits into glancing blows. With his size and strength, glancing blows are going to result in additional yards. Expect him to have a good number yards after contact if he keeps this up.Takes a little while to get up to full speed, but in stride, he has a bit of a burst.The goalline play was beautiful. Bills DT #97 Corbin Bryant plays way too high and gets lifted and flipped which opens the primary gap. Williams attacks the hole and makes a nice little cut at the end to get into the endzone.On the goalline plau, Bills defenders were very close to ripping the ball out; gets a hold of the point of the ball and does get a little movement, but Andre has strong arms to hold onto it.On Plays #4, Williams' big outside run comes as a result of a great seal block by FB #45 and the LB #94 Randell Johnson getting held up by LT #71 Charles Brown, borderline hold here. #52 takes a bad angle and Williams gets past them.On play #4, Williams shows that nice burst when he turns the corner.Play #6 was very close to working. The DE #92 Jarius Wynn breaks free of the LT #71 Charles Brown's block and gets free to the outside. If the LT can maintain that block, Andre Williams may have a lane to the boundary and the playside in-the-box safety #31 K Ladler seems to be taking a bad angle.On play #7, Manny Lawson embarrasses the RT #67 Justin Pugh on a hard cut in space and should have had a tackle for loss. Big props to the FB #39 John Connor to react on that play and get a piece of Lawson to free Williams. Williams makes a hard cut (both hands on the ball). Pugh recovers enough to engage the LB to set the edge; gets away with a bit of a hold on that shoulder.On play #7 again, Andre Williams SAW Nuke Williams coming and tried to get low; but Duke got lower than Andre. Also Andre got in a bad position with his legs crossed. Andre had no leverage and Duke exploded into him. Would like to see 234 lb-Andre Williams get his feet underneath him and then explode into the tackle.Looking forward to seeing more of Andre Williams. via /r/nfl http://www.reddit.com/r/nfl/comments/2cuwsm/andre_williams_7_carries_v_buf_hof_game/
