5.) Bills started off strong with back-to-back touchdowns

It has been a long time since the Bills’ offense scored on their first two offensive drives. After stopping the Steelers on their first drive, the Bills drove down the field on their opening drive and tight end Dawson Knox caught a 9 yard touchdown pass to put the Bills up on the board. After another defensive stop by Buffalo, Josh Allen would connect with the rookie tight end Dalton Kincaid for a 29 yard touchdown pass to put the Bills up 14-0.

The Bills needed to come out of the gates swinging big and they did just that on their first two drives. Then in the second quarter on a third down, Allen took it to the house on a 52 yard carry to put the Bills up by three scores. When the Bills get going early and do not force big plays, they are the toughest team to stop on any given day.
