They hope to get back on track when they head to the Carolinas to take on an improved Panthers team as 7-point road favorites.

Fantasy Football analysis: Bills, WR, Khalil Shakir
Through six games, the Bills leading target accumulators have been Keon Coleman (5.8 targets per game), Khalil Shakir (5.7), and Dalton Kincaid (4.8). This is a target distribution fantasy players hate, and rightfully so. You cannot rely on any of these players, as they must score a touchdown to be useful, even in PPR. Right now Shakir ranks around fortieth in fantasy points per game for wide receivers. So, on average he’s a WR4 and that’s about where you have to think of him unless his target numbers change dramatically due to an injury or complete re-haul of the offense. Start him as a flex and this week, with six byes, he becomes a little easier to start.
