Latavius Murray got his second start, and he once again showed that he will be Oakland's starting running back in 2015. He consistently finds openings, and he's able to exploit them. And even when there isn't one there, he always seems to move the pile.

The defense's performance was somewhat frustrating. It was brutally efficient on the ground, completely shutting down the Buffalo rushing attack. The defense held the Bills to 13 rushing yards and forced Orton to be the difference. As suspected, he wasn't up to the task.
