The Buffalo Bills are preparing for an AFC showdown against the Pittsburgh Steelers.
While injuries are a huge concern coming into the game, the Bills have something up their sleeve.
Specifically, one game-changing stat gives the team a huge boost before their matchup.
Bills looking to continue the trend
Sean McDermott and Brandon Beane have completely shifted the culture and play of the Buffalo Bills.
Since their arrival, the team has been on an upward trajectory. Now, the Bills are Super Bowl favorites with an MVP-leading quarterback at the helm.
Buffalo will look to revenge last season's devastating home-opener loss to the Steelers and continue their hot streak after last week's come-from-behind victory.
Injuries are a major concern
The biggest and most devastating trend this season has been injuries for the talented Bills' team.
On both offense and defense, the Bills have been plagued by one of the worst injury bugs across the NFL.
Sean McDermott has already confirmed several key starters will miss time, yet again, in their upcoming matchup.
However, in their game against the Dolphins, nearly the entire secondary was missing time and they put on a show.
Buffalo has been dominant on defense this season, continuing their "next man up" mentality and shining.
In fact, the Bills have only allowed a total of seven points in every second half through four games.
With Josh Allen, all things are possible
While injuries have been a major concern, there has been one constant positive with this roster.
Josh Allen has been balling out all season. He is the only quarterback in the NFL to be accountable for 100% of the teams' total touchdowns.
The Bills' quarterback will look to continue his MVP-caliber season against a stout Pittsburgh Steelers defense who happens to be missing their star linebacker, TJ Watt.
Allen has been the franchise quarterback a suffering fanbase has waited decades for and lets his play do the talking.
Bills' defensive coordinator Leslie Frazier will look to continue his dominant trend against rookies, and shut down Kenny Pickett early and often.
Get your popcorn ready, this one's going to be fun.
