‘Needing a touchdown to tie the game and facing a 3rd down and 1 at their own 48 yard line, offensive coordinator Joe Brady called a jet sweep to Elijah Moore, eerily similar to the one he called last week to Dawson Knox. And just like last week, the Bills fumbled the exchange. This time, Moore picked it up, but lost four yards. The Bills punted.’

Opinion: What a stinker
‘The offense had its worst game of the season. The defense had a historically bad first half. It all added up to a second-consecutive loss, which knocked the Bills out of first place in the AFC East and sent them into the bye week wondering what in the world is going on.’
5 takeaways from Buffalo Bills 24-14 loss to Atlanta Falcons on Monday Night Football
‘Then there was the ground attack from Bijan Robinson. The Bills lost defensive tackle DaQuan Jones during pregame warmups with a calf injury, so they went into tonight with only Ed Oliver, Deone Walker, and Jordan Phillips as the listed defensive tackles. Robinson’s final stat line included one 81-yard touchdown run on the way to 170 total yards rushing on 19 carries. That 81-yard touchdown run doubled as the longest run by any player this year in the NFL.’

This date in Bills stadium history: Oct. 14
‘1973 — Bills 31, Colts 13 — O.J. Simpson rushed for 166 yards and two touchdowns, his fifth consecutive game going over 100 yards, and the Bills improved to 4-1 with their third home win in a row. Buffalo’s defense allowed only 203 yards with four takeaways, including interceptions by Dwigh Harrison and Ernie Kellermann. Joe Ferguson threw for only 57 yards with a touchdown pass to Larry Watkins, and the Bills rookie quarterback also rushed for 37 yards and a score. The Bills would lose four of the next five games to spoil their promising start.’

Carucci Take2: Bills double down on ugly in loss vs. Falcons
‘Last week against the Patriots, it was sloppiness in the form of three turnovers and 11 accepted penalties. Monday night against the Falcons, it was offensive dysfunction and a defense that continued to struggle badly against the run. Oh, and there was sloppiness, too, in the form of two Josh Allen interceptions and eight accepted penalties – including an offside by Greg Rousseau that wiped out a Falcon fumble on the game’s opening play from scrimmage – for minus-64 yards.’

‘The most concerning thing is that Sean McDermott’s team doesn’t have a fastball right now. There’s nothing they can trust to keep afloat when the water gets deep. On this night, even Josh Allen failed them.’
Bills lose again as Atlanta’s defense shines in second half
‘The Bills are now 4-2 after a 24-14 loss to the Atlanta Falcons on Monday Night Football. In the first half, Atlanta’s offense looked unstoppable as running back Bijan Robinson and wide receiver Drake London led the Falcons to 21 first-half points. Buffalo’s defense regrouped in the second half, holding Atlanta to just three points, but the Bills’ offensive couldn’t match.’

‘“Find out what we did wrong and we just got to be more consistent,” Johnson said. “I mean, at the end of the day, I feel like we have the guys in this room. I mean, guys are banged up right now, but guys stepped up today. You know what I’m saying? Especially in that second half. So just being more consistent, that’s the key.”’
