The Buffalo Bills defense has held their own but the offense has yet to find their rhythm as they trail the Baltimore Ravens 10-6 at the half

The Buffalo Bills are trying to end the Baltimore Ravens eight-game winning streak and they head into the half 10-6.

Their offense started out slow as their first three drives ended with punts and then they had a fumble by quarterback Josh Allen on the fourth. At this point, they were down 10-0 before they finally got things rolling.

Buffalo had an 11-play drive that covered 55 yards which led to a 36-yard field goal from Stephen Hauschka. Running back Devin Singletary was a workhorse on that drive, running it six-straight drives at one point.

Allen, who said this game wasn’t ‘huge’ to him before the game seemed a bit amped up to start things off.

He was high on three passes that could have gone for big gains. One was on the first drive that could have gone for six as John Brown was a couple of steps ahead of his defender.

As the half was winding down, he seemed to get into a better groove. He hit Singletary on a few short passes and connected with Cole Beasley for three first-down grabs on third-down plays — including two on their final drive before the half that led to their second field goal.

Buffalo did start the game with the ball which means they will receive to start the third quarter. A good drive here could be huge as they look to turn things around in this game.

They will need to protect Allen better though as he has been sacked four times and hit another six with a total of 10 quarterback hurries.

Injury updates:

Josh Allen limped off the field at one point but returned to the game.

Baltimore tight end Mark Andrews was injured early and it appears he will not return.
