Plus, five key questions facing the Bills coming out of the bye week.

In today’s edition of the Buffalo Bills daily links, we discuss the news that Bills greats Steve Tasker and Cornelius Bennett are among the 25 modern-era semifinalists for the Pro Football Hall of Fame Class of 2021.

We also address the pressure facing quarterback Josh Allen to deliver a Super Bowl to the Bills and dissect how big of a leap Allen has made this year. We ask five key questions facing Buffalo coming out of the bye, including asking what the offensive line will look like, addressing whether the Bills can improve their run defense, and identifying which young players will step up over the final six weeks.

We break down the early returns on left tackle Dion Dawkins’s new contract through ten games, discuss the news that Buffalo’s Week 15 game vs. the Denver Broncos was flexed to Saturday, hear about cornerback Josh Norman’s activation from the Reserve/COVID-19 list, and much more!
