Bills’ Spencer Brown on Facing Texans Again: ‘For Me Personally, It Can’t Get Much Worse’
Allen and the new-look Bills open the season in Houston, where he has lost all four starts and posted a 30% completion rate in 2024.
- On Sunday, the Buffalo Bills open their 2026 season at Reliant Stadium against the Houston Texans, with quarterback Josh Allen seeking his first win at the venue where he holds a 0-4 career record.
- Last season's 23-19 loss saw the Houston defense sack Allen eight times for 70 yards, both career highs, with edge rushers Will Anderson Jr. and Danielle Hunter combining for 4.5 sacks and 12 tackles.
- Houston's defense ranked eighth in sack percentage at 7.6% while blitzing just 21% of the time in 2025, demonstrating defensive efficiency that Head Coach DeMeco Ryans said could make them "one of the best defenses in the league."
- Allen said, "I think I'll always have a chip on my shoulder," acknowledging past disappointments, while Head Coach Joe Brady expressed confidence that no one could better represent the city than Allen.
- The Bills added wide receiver D.J. Moore and rookie receiver Skyler Bell to bolster their offense, as Allen emphasized executing "one game at a time" to begin the season 1-0 against the elite Texans defense.
