1. NFL.com believes the Bills are "trending upward" with QB situation

Out of all the teams in the AFC East, the Buffalo Bills have the most stable situation at quarterback according to NFL.com. Nick Shook evaluated the quarterback situations of all 32 NFL teams and the Bills placed in the "Trending Upward" category with Josh Allen at the helm. It is the most favorable category of any quarterback in the AFC East.

Buffalo Bills: Josh Allen might actually be the guy in Buffalo after all -- even if he gets the job done in a bit of an unorthodox way. The quarterback led the Bills to a wild-card berth in 2019, completing 58.8 percent of his passes for 3,089 yards with a 20:9 TD-to-INT ratio, and he nearly broke Buffalo's "gets us" meter when he stepped off a plane in frigid temperatures wearing only a short-sleeved hoodie and a ballcap. That makes for a beloved signal-caller in Western New York. But he'll have to cut down on his running (109 attempts, 510 yards, nine touchdowns) if he wants to make a long career out of this. For now, there's optimism in Buffalo. We'll see if the Bills can take the next step with Allen in 2020.

Among the other AFC East teams, the reviews aren't so promising. The Patriots are a "known unknown" with Tom Brady alluding toward not returning and leaving New England with a hole at the position for the first time since he took over.
