Greg Rousseau looks elite as Bills turn tide in 34-28 win over Cardinals (Encouraged/worried)
‘Buffalo’s former first-round pick had a monstrous performance in the team’s Week 1 matchup. Rousseau was credited with a first-half sack on a play in which he chased Kyler Murray out of bounds. In the second half, Rousseau beat the Cardinals’ offensive tackle for two third-quarter sacks, including one that led to a fumble recovered by the Bills.’

Bills extinguish Cardinals quick start, mount 14-point comeback to begin season 1-0
‘After a shaky first half, which saw the Bills trail early in the second quarter, 17-3, Buffalo rallied behind the efforts of edge rusher Greg Rousseau’s three-sack performance and quarterback Josh Allen’s ability to beat you with his legs and arm. Buffalo wound up with a 34-28 victory to begin the 2024 campaign at 1-0.’
Five Takeaways: Imperfect Bills earn gutty win over Cardinals to begin season 1-0
‘”Great to get a win — hard fought battle,” said head coach Sean McDermott. “Give Arizona credit, they came in here and had a good plan. We got down early in the game and they were fighting back from there. I think that that in and of itself is a great sign for our football team.”‘

UB boys Lewis, Ingram come through for Bills during comeback win over Cardinals
‘Both players have risen in the ranks on the Bills’ roster over the past number of seasons, with Lewis being brought in by the team as a UDFA in 2019 and Ingram signed during the 2022 campaign. Each player began their career with roles on the Bills’ practice squad, but both have since been elevated to the 53-man roster. On Sunday, both Lewis and Ingram were presented with a significant opportunity, and they cashed in.’
Quick Hits: Defense just enough to help Josh Allen, Bills hold of Cardinals
‘Ingram’s tipped pass was fitting, considering the Bills did just enough on defense to win the game. Buffalo fell behind 17-3 in the second quarter with very few answers for Murray’s scrambling ability.’
Sabato: Josh Allen proves again he can take the Bills as far as they let him
‘For all the cringing when Allen takes a hit, the Bills know that’s what makes Allen one of the premier players in the NFL and it makes him beloved in the locker room. Allen wants to stick his nose into a fight, he’s willing to take a hit if it means getting a touchdown or a first down.’
Opinion | The Buffalo Bills open with a win and a prayer — for Josh Allen’s left hand
‘But in between, there was enough brilliance, recklessness, imagination and leadership by the 29-year-old Allen that the Bills carried the day. He still guides a Buffalo offence that, despite a lot of change, appears potent enough for the Bills to once again be a force in the AFC East.’

Josh Allen throws 2 TD passes and runs for 2 others as Bills rally for 34-28 win over Cardinals
‘“I thought it was the flyover,” left tackle Dion Dawkins said, comparing Allen’s leap to the Air Force jet that zipped over the stadium during the national anthem. “I just said, shoot, what goes up, must come down. And I hope you come down in the end zone. And he did. You know, that big quarterback, it’s hard to stop that, especially when you’re flying.”’
