Another week, another primetime game against a team that has dominated the NFL in recent years, but finds itself suddenly on shakier ground.

I already penned one article pointing the finger at the Buffalo Bills’ offense for the loss to the Atlanta Falcons, and it felt so good I figured I’d come back for seconds.

The Buffalo Bills fell to the Atlanta Falcons on Monday night and dropped to 4-2, a record that’s very similar to their win/loss total through six weeks the last few years.
