‘Before the first quarter ended in the Buffalo Bills’ 40-9 victory over the Carolina Panthers Sunday, Olsen said three interesting things that illustrated why so many viewers remain upset about the decision and feel he should have remained No. 1.’

All eyes will be on the Bills for NFL's Week 9 marquee matchup: What to know
‘The Chiefs have dominated the AFC since the moment Mahomes became the starting quarterback in 2018. They had already won the AFC West two years in a row behind Alex Smith, and since Mahomes has taken over they have added seven more division titles to stretch the streak to nine. More importantly, they have also won five AFC championships and three Super Bowls.’
Bills vs. Chiefs injury update: Buffalo has five starters hurt on defense
‘DaQuan Jones has missed two straight games due to a calf injury and Ed Oliver suffered a torn biceps in Week 8 and watched the rest of the game wearing a hoodie.’
Ed Oliver out indefinitely with biceps tear following Bills' best defensive showing since Week 2
‘Less than 24 hours earlier, his Buffalo Bills defense played perhaps its best game of the season in a 40-9 win over the Carolina Panthers. Sure, it was aided by subpar quarterback play from Andy Dalton, but a defense that had been gashed at a historical rate the first six games, held Carolina’s No. 3 rushing attack to 114 yards.’
Tale of the tape: Josh Allen, Bills passing game got on track late after disjointed start
‘Give Joe Brady his flowers.’
Cook’s career day overshadows deficiencies in Bills’ passing attack. DT Oliver out with torn bicep
‘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.’
Bills DT Ed Oliver has torn biceps, out indefinitely
‘As he fell to the ground on a block, Oliver flexed his left arm and then held it for a bit. He walked off the field with athletic trainers during the two-minute warning break, briefly went into medical tent and then walked to the locker room with an athletic trainer. He was quickly ruled out with the injury.’
What can Buffalo take away from big win in Carolina for Chiefs?
‘On the other hand, there’s the lack of depth at defensive tackle. 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.’
Ed Oliver injury: Bills star DT out indefinitely with torn biceps, will undergo surgery
‘Just before the two-minute warning of Sunday’s game, Oliver fell to the turf during a three-yard run from Panthers running back Chuba Hubbard and began flexing his left arm. Oliver walked off the field with the training staff before heading into the medical tent. Eventually, Oliver made his way to the locker room before being ruled out for the remainder of the game due to the injury.’
'Safe to say' Bills after 'back' after Panthers blowout
‘But a 40-9 curb-stomping of Dave Canales’ team reminded everyone that Buffalo is still “Buffalo,” well, at least in the second half.’

‘For Cook, Buffalo’s identity is whatever it wants it to be.’
Buffalo Bills get worst possible injury news on Ed Oliver
‘Oliver had a massive game in Week 1 against the Baltimore Ravens, finishing with three tackles for loss and forcing the Derrick Henry fumble that turned the tide for the Bills. Buffalo did get both Michael Hoecht and Larry Ogunjobi back from suspension, and will now have to lean on them in the absence of Oliver.’
Bills get devastating Ed Oliver injury update that is massive blow to Buffalo's defense
‘The Bills were already extremely short-handed along the defensive line, which only makes this potential season-ending injury for Oliver, who is the Bills’ best defender, even more devastating.’
Ed Oliver out indefinitely with torn biceps
‘Oliver had missed four games this season with an ankle injury before returning to the lineup in Week 6 against the Atlanta Falcons. Through three games played, he had registered three sacks, a forced fumble, and 12 total tackles.’
Bills DT Ed Oliver out with torn biceps
‘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.’
