‘Though he finished 12 of 19 for 163 yards and a touchdown, Allen looked lost during the first half, when he completed 6 of 13 attempts for 66 yards and was sacked twice. Allen blamed himself, saying he wasn’t trusting his feet and forced a few throws.’

This was a position the Bills were already hurting at, but then right before halftime starter Ed Oliver (biceps) was quickly ruled out. He officially suffered a torn left biceps and is out indefinitely, per McDermott. The healthy bodies remaining include rookie Deone Walker, Larry Ogunjobi (back from suspension), Jordan Phillips, Phidarian Mathis and Zion Logue on the practice squad. Hoecht also spent time inside on Sunday and can be of help there.’

‘Oliver was injured in the second quarter of Buffalo’s 40-9 victory at Carolina on Sunday. It was Oliver’s second game back after missing four weeks with an ankle injury sustained in practice, and it left the Bills without both starting defensive tackles following DaQuan Jones’ calf injury during pregame warmups two weeks ago at Atlanta. Further thinning the line, rookie T.J. Sanders is on injured reserve following knee surgery earlier this month, and second-year player Dewayne Carter was lost for the season with an Achilles tendon tear before the start.’

Lance Lysowski: James Cook is the key to the Bills' offense realizing its potential in 2025
‘James Cook needs to get the ball. The Bills look like a different team when one of the best running backs in the NFL is involved early and often. Handing it off to Cook gives this offense an identity, and it spotlights a path for the group to be as dynamic as it was in 2024.’
Bills first-round pick Maxwell Hairston makes his NFL debut: 'He brought his own talent'
‘He made just one solo tackle, though it was noticeable. Panthers receiver Jimmy Horn Jr. took a swing pass out of the backfield, and Hairston diagnosed it, broke on the play and made a big hit on Horn, dropping him in the open field after a 2-yard gain.’
