The Buffalo Bills are hoping to be back in Super Bowl contention this year.
Looking at their roster, they are one of the best in football.
But something seems off with the Bills through the first eight weeks.
When Buffalo does win, it is not convincingly.
On Thursday night, the Bills defeated the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
But the Bucs were in the game until the very end.
The Bills have lost three games this season, two of which were to bad teams.
They lost Week 1 to the New York Jets and lost last week to the New England Patriots.
According to Rich Eisen, he is not impressed with how the Bills have looked.
He thinks there is something wrong with Josh Allen’s shoulder and they are too mistake-prone.

We are used to seeing the Bills dominate on both sides of the ball en route to convincing victories.
But, outside of their win over the Miami Dolphins, they have not done that.
Since the Bills played on Thursday night, they get a mini-bye heading into Week 9.
That will be a great litmus test for them as the Bills will go to Cincinnati to face the Bengals.
Last season, the Bengals sent the Bills home in the playoffs.
If the Bills cannot play their best in that game maybe there is something wrong.
This team has been on the shortlist of Super Bowl contenders over the past five years.
Yet, the furthest they have reached is the AFC Championship Game.
If we do not see a deep playoff run from them this season the front office may be ready to make some changes.
