NFL power rankings: Which teams will have the best passing attack this season?
By Ryan Heckman
5. Buffalo Bills
The Bills’ lack of a true workhorse running back, coupled with the fact that general manager Brandon Beane wants to limit Josh Allen’s hits and turnovers, will be the main reason this offense throws even more and ultimately makes a jump from last year.
In 2022, the Bills finished as the league’s 7th overall passing team and additionally finished as a top-10 rushing attack. But, Allen’s legs should be limited a bit more thus saving him some hits. If Stefon Diggs has anything to say about it, I would assume he’d like the team to not only throw more but throw him the ball even more (yes, more than his 28 percent target share in 2022).
All jokes aside, Allen is one of the best in the business and has been notably more locked in this offseason than ever before. The Bills have to understand this season is all about winning a Lombardi, and Allen is entering Year 6. This is the time to go out and prove he’s an elite quarterback while also toning down the giveaways.
Between Diggs, Dawson Knox, Gabriel Davis and even rookie Dalton Kincaid, Allen should have enough weapons to work with and, ultimately, have a career year en route to the league’s number-five overall passing attack.
