Josh Allen looks to extend perfect record after bye and snap Bills’ 2-game skid vs. Panthers
‘“Listen, we got a lot of work to do,” Allen said. “But this is a team that has a lot of guys that want to do that work, that care for each other. And we’re just excited for another opportunity this week.”’
Panthers will look to exploit Bills’ 31st-ranked run defense, control clock with two-back approach
‘Key matchup(s): Panthers RBs Rico Dowdle and Chuba Hubbard vs. Bills front seven. If the Panthers are going to have a chance against the Bills, they’ll need to control the time of possession and keep Josh Allen off the field. That means effectively running the football — something they have done extremely well of late. The Panthers have run for 580 yards over the past three games. They will again employ a two-back approach against the Bills. Last week Dowdle gained 79 yards rushing on 17 carries, while Hubbard had 14 carries for 31 yards. The vulnerable Bills defense comes into the game ranked 31st against the run, allowing 156.3 yards per game on the ground.’
Seven Wide Receivers the Bills Should Trade for to Help Josh Allen
‘It’s easy to understand Beane’s frustrations because Josh Allen earned his first MVP award and Buffalo averaged 30.9 points per game last season. Still, the questions were fair to ask because the Bills are lacking a difference-maker at the position. Also, Buffalo is usually in the market for wide receivers, as evidenced by last year’s trade for Amari Cooper.’
Bills vs. Panthers could be decided by one factor
‘The Bills’ defense has given up 100+ yards in all but one game this season, but in two of their last three games, totals of 189 and a whopping 210 against the Atlanta Falcons were among Buffalo’s biggest downfalls.’
Bills reveal how offense can get back on track vs. Panthers
‘“Just stick to the preparation, handle our business throughout the week,” Shakir said. “Put one foot in front of the other, don’t look too far ahead, and not really looking much in the past. Just that moving forward mentality, when we come out here focusing in on each and every play that we’re running, focusing in on the details, and just preparing the right way throughout the week so we’re ready to rock come game day.”’
It's looking more likely Bills will face Andy Dalton on Sunday
‘Carolina Panthers quarterback Bryce Young did not participate in practice Thursday for a second-straight day due to an ankle injury, making it increasingly likely he will not play against the Buffalo Bills this Sunday.’
Opinion: Bills passing game needs immediate help
‘The six-game review of the offense looks like this: Josh Allen is still one of the top quarterbacks in the league, but after throwing just six interceptions last season, Allen has been picked off four times in the first six games. Allen has also been sacked 12 times, which is just two off his total from last season.’
Opinion: Panthers on the prowl
‘Young’s play had improved slightly during the win streak, but the Panthers’ passing game was still very limited. It remains to be seen if Dalton can change that.’
How can the Buffalo Bills get back in the win column against Carolina Panthers?
‘”You take it one day at a time, one week at a time, that’s how the league is. When you get too far ahead of yourself or look too far in the past, you lose focus on where you’re at,” says head coach Sean McDermott.’
Could Jordan Poyer be getting an expanded role with the Buffalo Bills?
‘“I’m extremely grateful for this opportunity to be able to come here and play for this organization once again and, you know, just do everything that I can to help this team win football games,” Poyer said on Wednesday. “Whether that’s my scout team, whether that’s being up, you know, whenever that is, I’m just staying ready to play.”’
Bills Make Me Wanna Give: Alec Anderson advocates for mental health
‘“I think that especially as men and as football players, we’re taught to harbor our emotions and kind of never really let them out or even for us to explore them,” Anderson said. “And so I think with more NFL players talking about their mental health, it’s kind of easier for the community to open up their minds and want to help their own mental health or somebody that they know.”’
Today in Bills stadium history: Oct. 24
‘1976 — Patriots 26, Bills 22 — O.J. Simpson rushed for 110 yards and two touchdowns but that wasn’t quite good enough in Buffalo’s third of 10 straight losses to close out the ’76 season. With Joe Ferguson lost for the season to a back injury early on, backup quarterback Gary Marangi was 6 for 22 passing for 61 yards with a touchdown to Bob Chandler and an interception, along with 74 yards rushing. Sam Cunningham gained 161 scrimmage yards for New England, while Steve Grogan totaled 124 yards with touchdowns rushing and passing. The teams combined for 11 fumbles (seven lost) with the Bills on the losing end of the split. Attendance at Rich Stadium was 45,144.’

‘”A great organization that was very kind to me and helpful with my career,” McDermott said of Carolina. “Coached with a lot of great coaches and great players also. I learned so much from being there. It was a great time for me. The Super Bowl was a tremendous moment. So, I learned a lot from being there, I’m super happy here.”‘
