The 2022 NFL season has not gone off as planned. Unless you’re the Buffalo Bills.
Josh Allen’s team has spent the first two weeks of the season dismantling squads that made the playoffs last winter, torching them through the air and brutalizing them on defense. Other than that, however, things have been … a little weird.
Tua Tagovailoa and Carson Wentz currently make up half the players tied for the league lead in touchdown passes. The Cincinnati Bengals are 0-2. The New York Giants are 2-0. The best quarterback the Dallas Cowboys have inserted in their lineup is Cooper Rush.
That’s set several paths in motion that will reach their terminus over the next five months. Some will end at the top of the 2023 NFL Draft. Two will lead to the Super Bowl. What can we believe in and what’s just an early season smokescreen?
