‘As if it hasn’t already been difficult enough for the Bills to pass, now they’re facing a Jets defense that ranks second in the NFL in passing yards allowed at 143 per game. If the Bills can’t get a rushing attack working in this game, the offense is going to be in for a long night against an opponent that typically gives Josh Allen and company fits.’

Sean McDermott, Joe Brady fail and Josh Allen historically bad as Bills lose to Texans
‘But make no mistake, it was inexcusable that after dramatically rallying from a 20-3 third-quarter deficit to tie the score, the Bills failed to get this game to overtime rather than watching Ka’imi Fairbairn kick a game-winning 59-yard field goal.’
Bills report card: Buffalo offense, coaching incompetent in nightmare loss to Texans
‘Brady was unable to scheme much of anything in the passing game, the fourth-down play that resulted in Coleman’s TD being the exception. True, the pieces on his chessboard can’t win on the bulk of their routes, but that’s on Brady to find ways to put them in better situations and in the last two games, he hasn’t been able to do it.’

Is Josh Allen doomed without a strong run game? 3 questions Bills need to answer vs Texans
‘It seems like I’m harping on this every week, but the lack of productivity in the receiving corps is problematic. The Bills’ best two targets are wide receiver Khalil Shakir and tight end Dalton Kincaid, both solid players, neither of them game changers. And then beyond them, it’s a black hole.’

Von Miller suspended for violating NFL’s personal conduct policy: What we know
‘He recorded a sack in each of the first three games before being shut out Sunday night Baltimore. However, in that game he played only nine defensive snaps because the Ravens ran the ball so much, and the 35-year-old Miller is primarily a pass rusher at this point in his career.’
Bills offensive coordinator blames himself and his ‘bad play call’ for loss to Ravens
‘Look, Brady was not to blame for the entire breakdown of the team. Yes, he probably didn’t give the offense its best chance to succeed with some of the decisions he made, and it was noble of him to fall on the sword, but this wasn’t all on him. The defense was horrible, too, special teams had its poor moments, and all of it conspired to produce a clunker of seismic proportion.’
Bills on the road to face another of AFC’s best teams: What to know about Week 5
‘If RB Joe Mixon is healthy enough to play, the Texans should copy the blueprint of what Baltimore just did and establish him early on the ground. Granted, he’s no Derrick Henry, but the way the Bills’ defense played against Henry and a Ravens offensive line that was banged up, Houston has to at least test the waters. If the Bills hold up, then C.J. Stroud can go to work and unlike Josh Allen, he has a wide array of dangerous passing threats led by Diggs, Nico Collins and Tank Bell (if he can play as he sat out Week 4 against the Jaguars).’
Buffalo Bills get reality check and are shredded by Derrick Henry, Baltimore Ravens
‘This was the first time in 43 regular-season games that the Bills have lost a game by more than six points, an ugly butt-kicking that was undeniable, and what was so striking is that it was a complete meltdown in every aspect.’
Bills report card: Buffalo outplayed, outcoached in embarrassing loss to Ravens
‘The Bills were pushed around up front for the first time all season and their inexperience at LB was glaring. Williams made mistakes, but he also was in on 12 tackles while Spector had six plus his sack and a fumble recovery when Williams knocked the ball out of Jackson’s hands on a scramble.’
