Rams face injury depth issues, Bills struggle with turnovers early in season
Summary

Top Super Bowl contenders, the Rams and Bills, are showing early signs of vulnerability this season. The Rams, with Super Bowl MVP Puka Nacua and Defensive Player of the Year Myles Garrett sidelined by injuries, are struggling with depth in the pass rush and wide receiver positions. They currently rank 29th in sack rate and lack playmakers on offense. Meanwhile, the Bills, despite their 3-0 record, have been plagued by turnovers, including five in a recent win against the Chargers, which could cost them against stronger opponents. Both teams are under scrutiny as they navigate their weaknesses with the season still in full swing.
