The Buffalo Bills storyline that isn't being talked about enough nationally

When the national media talks about the Buffalo Bills, their attention usually goes directly to quarterback Josh Allen and the offense.
And I think we can certainly all understand why that's the case.
Buffalo has the No. 5 scoring offense in the NFL after four weeks. Not only do the Bills put up a lot of points in most weeks, but they're one of the most exciting teams to watch on offense.
You never know when Allen is going to end up making a Sportscenter Top 10 type play.
But as good as the offense has been this season, the defense has been even better.
Buffalo's scoring defense is currently No. 2 in the NFL (14.5 points per game).
Perhaps even more impressive than allowing just 14.5 points per game is that the Bills have allowed only seven total points in the second half this season.
(Those seven points came in Buffalo's one loss this season which was against the Miami Dolphins in week three.)
This is the reason why I think the Bills are destined for the Super Bowl this season. Buffalo has the perfect combination of a suffocating defense with an explosive offense.
(Just imagine how good Buffalo's defense would be if safety Micah Hyde wasn't out for the season.)
The hype for the Bills has died down a bit after the loss to the Dolphins and the three point win against the Baltimore Ravens this past Sunday. But I feel as confident as ever that this team is about to make a memorable run this season.
It's not a stretch to say that Buffalo is the most complete team in the NFL. And while they may stumble a time or two before the end of the season, they're still the team to beat in the AFC.
