Buffalo's defense has allowed the most yards per game (386.8) of anyone in the league, bar the leaky Lions. One key metric – stopping teams on third down – suggests they are in for a rough ride against elite opposition in the playoffs.

Allen's elite offense offset by league-worst defense; third-down stops worsening.

Josh Allen cannot play both ways; while he controls a high-scoring offense, Buffalo's defense has allowed the most yards per game (386.8) of anyone in the league except the Lions. The Bills' third-down defense has progressively worsened from 36% success against them in Week 2 to 58% against the Raiders last Sunday, well above the NFL average of 40%, suggesting they will struggle against elite playoff opposition.
