Opinion: Brian Daboll, Buffalo Bills need to stop relying on the pass

What is the Buffalo Bills’ identity on offense? It’s a question I’ve answered a couple times on my podcast and it’s high time I put it in writing. Under offensive coordinator Brian Daboll, the Bills are a pass-first offense built around second-year quarterback Josh Allen, and Sunday’s game against the Cleveland Browns crystallized it.

That is foolish.

Josh Allen should not be passing the ball 41 times in a one-score game. On the final drive, when Buffalo was in their two-minute drill, he had seven of those passes. Even before that hurry-up drive, the Bills were skewed offensively.
