29. Buffalo Bills (28)

One week after pulling off one of the biggest surprise victories on the road in Minnesota, all eyes were on the Buffalo Bills in Week 4 to see if they could continue their magic on the road once again, this time when facing the Green Bay Packers. Apparently, it looks like whatever happened to the Bills in Week 3 may have been just a one-time thing when looking at how the team failed to score a single point during Sunday’s loss to the Packers to drop their record to 1-3 on the season.

Without question, the decision by Buffalo to go with Josh Allen as the starter seems like the best decision since the rookie quarterback is in need of all the extra help he can get on offense, especially after seeing Sunday’s disappointing performance. Finishing with three turnovers to go along with just 151 passing yards was beyond frustrating to see for the Bills, and it’s clear this team is nowhere near the competitive level from a year ago when they were a top contender in the AFC.

As bad as it sounds, what happened in Week 3 for Buffalo seemed too good to be true, and their level of play from Sunday shows their true colors. After Week 4, the Bills have now been held to three points or less in two of their first four games, which is pathetic.
