The Buffalo Bills got some potentially good news on Friday that Josh Allen was able to get in limited practice and was listed as questionable for this Sunday’s game against the Minnesota Vikings. He is dealing with an elbow injury and it seemed like it was almost a certainty that Case Keenum would be forced to start this week.

This season Josh Allen has accounted for 23 of the team’s 25 touchdowns (either passing or rushing) and has really played at an MVP level. However, if Allen is on the field or if it is ultimately Case Keenum, it really will need to be a team effort from the entire offense.

When looking at this game, there are five players on the Buffalo Bills that will need to step up and have big games against the Minnesota Vikings.

Bills Offensive Tackles

Regardless of who is under center, the Bills’ offensive line is going to have to give them time and protect them in the pocket. Unfortunately, the Vikings have one of the best pass rushing duos in the league with Za’Darius Smith and Danielle Hunter. These two have combined for 13.5 sacks already this season.

The good news for the Buffalo Bills is they are expected to get starting right tackle Spencer Brown back this week. He missed the past two games due to an ankle injury suffered against the Kansas City Chiefs but enters Week 10 with no injury designation. The second-year tackle along with Dion Dawkins will need to have big games if the offense hopes to stay on track against this defense.
