The Bills couldn’t get anything going in the passing game. They struggled to gain yardage on the ground, as well. Couple this with a few mishaps on defense and special teams, and it accounts for a 44-point loss in Baltmore.
The offense failed to make plays throughout the day, not picking up a first down until the second half. A quarterback change helped energize the offense a bit in the second half, but the talented Baltimore defense was able to keep Buffalo to three points.
The explosive Ravens offense put points up early and often on Sunday, entering halftime with a 26-point lead. Baltimore added to their lead in the second half, ultimately winning the contest by a score of 47-3.
With the loss, the Bills fell to 0-1 on the season.

Only reason to not play Josh Allen now is to protect him. Does he need protecting? Maybe from his own offense. But that’s McDermott’s big call. Hard to tell anyone Peterman gives #Bills best chance to win. pic.twitter.com/fVveaqgkCj
