The Buffalo Bills came into Sunday’s game against the Cincinnati Bengals with the belief that they need to win in order to prove their legitimacy to the rest of the league.
What happened, however, was an effort that will prove more naysayers correct than anyone else. But exactly how did the Bills grade out in their 34-21 loss? The results aren’t pretty.
E.J. Manuel, making his first start since week 4 of the 2014 season, started off the game as well as the team could’ve hoped. Maneul led an 80-yard touchdown drive to give the Bills a quick lead.
