Last Week: 3
Week 3 Result: Won vs. Jacksonville 47-10
Earlier this week, Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen had a message for Bills Mafia ahead of this week’s primetime meeting with the Jacksonville Jaguars.
“Bills Mafia, they live for games like this,” Allen told reporters. “Hopefully we have them in the building and they’re as loud as can be, making as much noise when the opposing team is on offense and hopefully they’re quiet when we’re on offense. Best fans in the league.”
Well, Bills Mafia was most assuredly in the building—and they had to like what they saw from Buffalo.
To say that the Bills demolished the Jaguars doesn’t really do the game justice. Allen had 247 passing yards and four touchdowns—in the first half. The Bills scored touchdowns on all five first-half possessions. The Bills outgained the Jaguars by 150 yards, and the margin would have been much larger had Buffalo’s starters not sat out the fourth quarter.
It was one of the most dominant performances in the NFL we have seen this year—and it left Davenport wondering if Bleacher Report has the right team in the top slot in these Power Rankings.
“The only reason I have the Bills ranked behind Kansas City is that Buffalo’s opponents this year are a combined 2-7,” he said. “But after a close one against the Cardinals in the opener, the Bills have laid waste to both Florida teams. The offseason concerns about the Buffalo offense appear almost laughable now. The Bills defense looks as good as ever. You want the biggest challenger to Kansas City in the AFC? It’s Buffalo—again.”
