The Buffalo Bills open their season in Houston against the Texans, with quarterback Josh Allen seeking to end an 0–4 record in games at the Texans’ stadium. The skid includes a playoff loss and several difficulties for Allen and the Bills in Houston, where past performances have been widely described as underwhelming.
Coach Joe Brady is making his debut as Buffalo’s head coach for the matchup. Outlets frame the game as a test of continuity and early momentum, given expectations that the Bills will compete among the top teams in the AFC again this year. The specific focus varies by outlet, but all point to the same central storyline: Allen’s historical struggles at Houston and the chance for the Bills to break through with a new head-coaching start.
