Buffalo Bills fans get to celebrate a victory for the fifth time this season. We look at the fallout from the win in a Monday edition of The Morning Charge.

It’s officially a Victory Monday for Buffalo Bills fans after the team held on late to pick up the fifth win of the 2018 season.

The offense didn’t have a great day, but that was also true for the Detroit Lions as the Bills defense only allowed 13 points.

Stats aside, it was great to see Josh Allen pick up another win as he continues to build his confidence and settle in as the starter. He also set up Robert Foster with a monster game, as the two are forming quite the rookie connection.

A full offseason together should only mean great things in 2019.

The win came without LeSean McCoy on the field, so perhaps that fact stands out to Brandon Beane this offseason. That is, if teams come calling with great offers for the veteran running back.

A Bills win always makes Monday just a bit better, so let’s look at all the fallout from the win in a Monday edition of The Morning Charge.

The offense was average. The defense was great. The special teams didn’t do anything to lose the game. I’d call that a successful day as the Bills pick up another win with Allen under center.

The win got me thinking about how some fans may want different things over the final two weeks of the season. Personally, I want some more wins.

Some detailed thoughts from another Bills win. It would be fun if the team was fighting for a playoff spot, but there were still plenty of positives to take from this one.

The team has had a rough season, so it’s important to take in everything after a victory. Perhaps there are two more on the horizon.
