The Buffalo Bills are 4-2. They’ve got the reigning MVP under center.

And yet? Code Red panic has swept through Western New York through the team’s bye week. These surely are not 4-2 vibes.

What a big game upcoming vs. the Carolina Panthers.

To sort through the team’s current issues, I welcome back Jay Skurski of The Buffalo News onto the Go Long Pod. There’s problems on defense, problems on offense and, no, Josh Allen hasn’t been himself. The good news? All it may take is for Allen to shift back into Sicko Mode. He’s a cure-all force on this roster. Personally, I liked Brandon Beane’s approach to the roster over the offseason. There are many ways to help your quarterback and this still strikes me as a Simulate to January team.

That being said, it’s been ugly of late.

We discuss it all.
