ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. -- Of all of the teams to start 0-2 since 1990, only 8 percent have recovered to make the playoffs. The Buffalo Bills appear primed to join the 92-percent majority of that group -- and not simply because they are starting a rookie quarterback.
The Bills have much bigger problems than Josh Allen, who threw two interceptions in his starting debut, Sunday's 31-20 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers. He finished with an unexceptional 63.3 passer rating and abysmal 14.9 Total QBR for the game, the third-worst Total QBR of any quarterback this season but better than teammate Nathan Peterman's 0.
