The Buffalo Bills are heading into the new season with high hopes as they rely on their 28-year-old quarterback, Josh Allen. However, the team faces significant challenges across various positions. Key players have left the team, such as Stefon Diggs and Gabe Davis, affecting both the receiving corps and the veteran secondary. Injuries have also become a concern, with linebacker Matt Milano out indefinitely. The team has brought in numerous new faces, including defensive coordinator Bobby Babich and several players to bolster different positions.

Despite these changes, the Bills still have strengths to build upon, including running back James Cook and a solid tight end tandem in Dawson Knox and Dalton Kincaid. Linebacker Terrel Bernard has also emerged as a key contributor. However, the team faces weaknesses in the form of a young and inexperienced secondary and a lack of a prominent receiving threat to replace Diggs.

Injuries have impacted the team during training camp, particularly in the safety position and among some receivers. Despite the challenges, the Bills are hopeful that their new additions and returning players will step up to fill the gaps left by departed players and injuries.

One player to keep an eye on for fantasy football enthusiasts is Khalil Shakir, who had a strong second season and is expected to play a central role in Buffalo’s passing game. The team’s odds for winning the Super Bowl are at 15-1, with an over/under win prediction of 10 1/2.

Overall, the Buffalo Bills are heading into the season with a mix of optimism and uncertainty, relying on both familiar faces like Allen and new additions to make an impact on the field.
