Don’t look past Bengals

The NFL has always been a league of parody and there is a reason almost every football fan has said, “Any given Sunday.” For too long, this is one of the few things Bills fans have had to hold onto.

While the Buffalo Bills are a long way from being considered a top tier team in the NFL, they are certainly on the up swing. These are the type of games that the Bills need to win to prove that the first two weeks wasn’t a fluke.

The difference this week, compared to the first two games, is that they have one of their marquee games looming next week when they welcome the New England Patriots. It would be almost impossible for the Bills not to have that in the back of their mind but they need to focus on the task at hand.

While the Bengals are 0-2, they have some talented players on both sides of the ball. They are absolutely not a push over and if given the chance can steal a win from Buffalo. It will be up to the coaching staff to make sure this team stays focused on Week 3 and doesn’t come up short.
