Bills have the NFL’s most points. Vikings are the hardest to score on. Which side gives on Monday?

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — The Buffalo Bills, led by first-year coach Joe Brady and quarterback Josh Allen, have started the season with an impressive 6-1 record. Allen's prime performance and the team's constant pass-run threat have contributed to their success. However, when the Bills face the Minnesota Vikings on Monday night, they will be up against the toughest team to score against in the league.

Allen described the Vikings' defense as the number one in the league for a reason, stating that it gives teams fits. The Bills' offensive strategy aims to keep the ball moving in front of a loud U.S. Bank Stadium crowd, in an attempt to prove why they are the number one offense statistically.

The Vikings, under defensive coordinator Brian Flores, employ a blitz-heavy strategy, sending at least one extra pass rusher on nearly three-quarters of their drop-backs. This league-record rate could prove challenging for the Bills' star quarterback Josh Allen, who is known to evade blitzes and break tackles for momentum-changing first downs.

The Vikings, who have lost their starting quarterback Kyler Murray to a hamstring strain and will start Carson Wentz, face other issues as well. Wide receiver Justin Jefferson admitted that small mistakes throughout the game have cost the team in the past, but they remain a solid 6-1 team.

James Cook, the Bills' three-time Pro Bowl running back, leads the league in rushing yards this season with 707 yards. He will face the Vikings' formidable defensive front, which managed to limit the high-scoring Lions to 19 points but struggled in the final minutes of their game against the Lions. The Bills' edge rusher, Greg Rousseau, has recorded seven sacks, one short of his career high.
