Buffalo Bills fall to the Houston Texans after critical offensive missteps and questionable play-calling. Can Josh Allen and the Bills rebound before their playoff hopes slip away?

Joe Marino breaks down Buffalo’s 23-19 loss, spotlighting protection breakdowns against Houston’s disciplined defense and the disastrous impact of relying on mesh concepts with weakened offensive tackles. Key topics include Gabe Davis’s standout routes, James Cook’s explosive runs, and glaring missed opportunities in the ground game. The analysis covers defensive lapses in the first half, Jordan Phillips’s struggles up front, and the puzzling deployment of rookie TJ Sanders at defensive end. Upcoming challenges against the Pittsburgh Steelers loom large as Buffalo searches for answers.

Will the Bills adjust before it’s too late?
