‘Allen toured the 10th-floor wing, which also honors the 27,000 fans who donated to the Patricia Allen Fund with a playroom called the Bills Fans Fun Zone, on Tuesday.’

‘Knox suffered the injury prior to throwing a two-point conversion to Allen with 31 seconds remaining in the third quarter, giving the Bills a seven-point lead at the time. Allen, seemingly knowing something wasn’t quite right with his tight end, reportedly attempted to call the play off but went through with it after Knox insisted.’

‘Derrick Henry once again had himself a monster evening, rushing 20 times for 143 yards and three touchdowns, including the game-winner late in the fourth quarter. The Titans were helped by several big plays, as well as several miscues by the Bills — with a holding penalty on a potential game-winning kick return taking a score off the board.’

‘”We’re this far from winning the game,” McDermott told media in his post-game press conference, per Pro Football Talk, while holding his fingers close together. “I owe it to my players. I believe in my players. I believe in my quarterback.”‘

‘The Bills surely know the Titans will want to run the ball down their throats and will organize their defense accordingly, which is why it’s good news that Brown and Jones are back in the lineup. Only, Brown may now not be in the lineup after he was ominously added to the injury report Sunday due to an illness. Ryan Tannehill has been working with a makeshift receiver corps for much of the season and could presumably make things work if Josh Reynolds and/or Chester Rogers, Cameron Batson, Marcus Johnson, and Nick Westbrook have to pick up more snaps, but things are obviously much easier with both of the star wideouts in the fold.’

‘The Buffalo Bills got their revenge on the Kansas City Chiefs. Josh Allen and Co. went to Arrowhead Stadium and whooped the home team 38-20 in a game that was delayed more than an hour due to severe weather at halftime and was not as competitive as the final score.’

‘A notice on the Arrowhead video board informed fans they should make their way to the concourse to avoid the weather. Kickoff for the second half, meanwhile, finally commenced at 11:15 p.m. ET following more than an hour-long delay.’

‘Johnson agreed to a three-year extension with the Bills on Saturday, keeping the slot cornerback in the fold until the 2024 season. Johnson is having a career year with the Bills with 15 tackles, a sack and a forced fumble in three games played. Opposing quarterbacks targeting Johnson have just a 57.8 passer rating and are completing only 43.8% of their passes. Johnson has the ninth-lowest pass rating allowed among players who have more than 100 coverage snaps this season, per Pro Football Focus.’

‘When considering Sunday’s matchup, it’s also important to note that at the moment, no quarterback in the NFL is doing a better job of neutralizing the pass rush by getting rid of the ball quickly than Mahomes. He’s released the ball within 2.5 seconds of the snap on 53.5% of his dropbacks, according to Pro Football Focus, the eighth-highest rate in the league. His numbers on those throws are, in a word, otherworldly. I swear to you, these are not fake: 75 of 83 (90.4%) for 675 yards (8.1 per attempt), 10 touchdowns, zero interceptions and a 140.1 passer rating.’

‘With two shutouts in the first four games (Buffalo shut out Miami 35-0 in Week 2), the Bills are the first team since the 2000 Baltimore Ravens to earn two shutouts in the first four games of the season. That Ravens team has the modern-era NFL record for points per game allowed in a season (10.3) and ranked first in the league in nine defensive categories. The 2000 Ravens allowed just 23 points in four postseason games, not allowing an offensive touchdown in their Super Bowl XXXV victory over the New York Giants.’

‘Maybe Buffalo slips up by taking things too easily out of the gate, but even then, Allen has both the athleticism and weaponry to score in a hurry. Throw in the fact the Bills have looked improved as both a run and pass defense under Sean McDermott this year, and nothing bodes well for the visitors. There’s a reason this game has a 16.5-point line.’

‘Meanwhile, Buffalo kept a clean sheet against the Miami Dolphins on Sunday and took the contest 35 to nothing. The matchup was all but wrapped up at the end of the third, by which point the Bills had established a 21 to nothing advantage. Their RB Devin Singletary looked sharp as he punched in one rushing touchdown.’

‘Buffalo’s talented secondary will surely be keyed on stopping receivers DeVante Parker and rookie Jaylen Waddle. Parker led the Dolphins with 81 receiving yards against the Patriots, while Waddle caught a touchdown pass in his first regular season game. Buffalo’s defense will also be focused on stopping Myles Gaskin, who tallied 76 all-purpose yards on 14 touches in New England. Third down will be key for Miami’s offense, as Tagovailoa was 2-for-5 with two sacks and an interception on third down last Sunday. One of his two completions went for 30 yards to Parker that set up the Dolphins’ go-ahead touchdown.’

‘It was tale of two halves in Buffalo. After doing virtually nothing in the first half, Ben Roethlisberger and the Steelers offense put together four consecutive scoring drives in the second half. Pittsburgh also tacked on a special teams score while turning a 10-0 halftime deficit into a 23-16 upset victory.’
