It wasn’t a busy night in the passing game. When there’s only 140 yards passing and the running attack is having their best game of the year, the receivers were not asked to do much on Thursday night.

Robby Anderson has become the unit’s most consistent score and big play threat at the position. For the third straight week, Anderson has had a touchdown catch and is now tied with Jermaine Kearse for the team lead in touchdown receptions with four. Anderson continues to show of his speed by getting behind the Bills secondary to score his 25 yard touchdown.

As a whole the receivers had six catches for 86 of the 140 receiving yards. The only two receivers with catches were Anderson with four and Jermaine Kearse with two catches for 38 yards.

This unit made big catches despite their limited role on Thursday night.
