The Seattle Seahawks were afforded only four true first-half drives, and three ended with no first downs gained. The slow start boiled over into an insurmountable 31-3 deficit against the Buffalo Bills.

Josh Allen and company, meanwhile, appear to be back on track after losses in Weeks 4 and 5, and they cruised to victory, 31-10. The Bills moved to 6-2 on the season, while the Seahawks dropped to 4-4.

PLAYER OF THE GAME

Rookie wide receiver Keon Coleman is emerging in the Bills' offense — ironically, just after Amari Cooper was brought in to provide a spark. Coleman tallied at least 70 receiving yards for the third time this season, all coming in the past three games. He hauled in one of his two contested targets, which was an impressive touchdown grab over Seahawks cornerback Riq Woolen.

Coleman earned a career-high 85.2 PFF overall grade on first review of the game.
