After a week of hearing everything that was wrong with the passing game, the Buffalo Bills came out and dropped 44 points on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers to move to 7-3 after a good win.
With everyone coming after general manager Brandon Beane for not giving Josh Allen enough weapons, it was Gabe Davis, who was signed from the practice squad, who posted 40 yards, and Tyrell Shavers, who posted 90 yards and a touchdown, who were the main instigators in the win.
But after such a poor performance last week, to now showing exactly what the passing attack can do, the Bills appear to be back.
Does Allen think this performance can now propel Buffalo to better outings through the air?
“I think so, we just got to do a good job of not riding the wave,” Allen said. “Trying to stay as level-headed as possible, not getting too high or too low. Starting off 4-0 and we’re the best team in the world, lose two in a row, we’re the worst team in the world, we don’t want to ride that, we just want to stay consistent, continue to work hard and go out and execute on game days.”

What happened to Keon Coleman vs. Buccaneers?
Coleman wasn't sighted against Tampa Bay, and as it turns out, there was a good reason for it.
Keon reportedly missed a team meeting on Friday, ESPN's Adam Schefter reported, and Buffalo made the decision to sit him for the game, in what we think was a punishment.
It was reported that the Bills had planned to have Coleman playing on Sunday, but after missing the team meeting, they pulled the plug on that idea, and the offense was down a player.
But it didn't appear to matter, with Davis, Shavers, and others stepping up in Keon's absense.
This week looms as a huge one for Coleman, who will want to get back into the good graces of the coaching staff after what was a less-than-ideal incident for the second-year receiver.
