Summary

Buffalo Bills face mounting adversity with Spencer Brown and Dion Dawkins ruled out, testing their offensive line depth ahead of a pivotal clash with the Pittsburgh Steelers. Can Brandin Cooks inject new life into a stagnant passing game, or will age and unfamiliarity with Josh Allen hold him back? Joe Marino previews high-stakes roster moves, questions the management of Tylan Grable’s injury, and highlights the urgency as the Bills fight to maintain playoff position. Dr. Kyle Trimble joins with critical insights on Josh Allen’s physical setbacks, the state of Curtis Samuel, and impact injuries to the offensive line and defense. Key topics include James Cook’s anticipated workload, struggles in the pass rush, and what it will take to limit costly turnovers against a takeaway-focused Steelers defense. All eyes turn to whether the Bills can rally, protect their quarterback, and secure a much-needed win before facing Joe Burrow and the Bengals.
