The Bills fell further behind in the AFC East standings after a 14-10 loss in a blustery Monday Night Football game at Highmark Stadium. Catch up on all of our postgame coverage here.
Red zone woes plague Bills again in loss to Patriots
During his postgame press conference, Buffalo Bills coach Sean McDermott brought up the red zone five times unprompted.
In the Bills’ 14-10 loss to the New England Patriots, Buffalo was 1 of 4 in the red zone, failing to capitalize and instead moving in the wrong direction.
This game, with gusty winds whipping around Highmark Stadium, was the reason the Buffalo Bills drafted Josh Allen. But, they built a team around him that can’t run the ball or stop the run, writes Jason Wolf.

This game was the reason the Buffalo Bills drafted Josh Allen.
The big arm, suitable for cannon blasts through the biting wind. The big hands, making it easier to grip the pigskin in wet and frigid conditions. He had the mobility to elude rushers to buy time to throw and the wheels to take off, gobbling chunks of yardage on the ground, when necessary.
Breida also failed to cleanly field a kickoff after a Patriots field goal at the start of the second quarter. Not surprisingly, he touched the ball just once more on offense after that.
“You know, those are the things you work through. You work through your challenges,” head coach Sean McDermott said. “Challenges are different every year, and you know, those are the things we're working through to get fixed and make sure we are all on the same page."
