Buffalo Bills defense is one of the best in the league

There is no question that after two games, this Bills defense is special and is going to give opposing offenses a lot of trouble this season. Through eight quarters, the Bills have now only given up one touchdown to opposing offenses and if the touchdown on a blocked punt in Week 1, the Bills have given up an average of eight points per game.

This week against the Dolphins, the Bills forced four turnovers, sacked Dolphins quarterbacks six times, gave up only 216 total yards, and stopped them on all four of their fourth down attempts.

There is some that could point to the fact that Tua Tagovailoa missed most of the game after suffering a rib injury in the first quarter. The Dolphins were forced to play Jacoby Bissett the rest of the way but even in the two drives Tagovailoa was on the field, they sacked the Dolphins quarterback twice and had only one first down.
