‘A great way for the Bills to not let the Titans control the game on the ground is to get up early on them and make Tennessee play from behind. With AJ Brown now in Philadelphia, the Titans don’t have a true number one wide receiver, and will rely on rookies Kyle Phillips and Treylon Burks quite a bit. It will be increasingly difficult for them if the Bills make them one-dimensional and know they have to throw the football.’

Private lots prepare for campers ahead of Buffalo Bills game Monday night
‘“The private lots are smaller in size, more secure. You have the grass. You also have the factor, though it might be a little soft with the rain. A lot of people through the years get used to the same routine, same location, very hard for them to change,” said Matwijow.’
Monday Night Football score predictions for Tennessee Titans at Buffalo Bills: can Derrick Henry be stopped?
‘Derrick Henry to me is like the Rams’ Cooper Kupp. He’s going to get his. So as long as Buffalo can make Ryan Tannehill uncomfortable and limit the Titans’ passing offense, I’d expect Josh Allen and the rest of the Buffalo offense to do what they do and put points on the board.’
Monday Night Football score predictions for Tennessee Titans at Buffalo Bills: can Derrick Henry be stopped?
‘As for the Bills defense, they’ll have their hands full with one of the most intimidating running backs in Derrick Henry. He’s too good to be shut down, but this game needs to be about limiting the explosive plays. Last season the Bills didn’t do a good enough job of that, and it cost them. Like the Titans, the Bills are dealing with some injuries that make me think this game will be a bit closer than it should. The Titans will hang around and play tough, but I’m taking the Bills. The home opener is a holiday in Western New York and Bills Mafia should be celebrating in style.’
Why this Buffalo Bills fan is running 17 miles to the MNF home opener
‘“It’s a great reason for me to come visit home and do something I love to do while supporting the community,” said Goldsmith, an accomplished triathlete now living in Frisco, Texas, where he works as a fitness coach. “I really look forward to running down Abbott Road again into the tailgate. This is something I’ve tried to make an annual tradition. Being able to parlay it into fundraising for FeedMore, especially after the horrific shooting at Tops, makes this even more meaningful.”’

Sullivan: With chip on his shoulder, A.J. Epenesa coming into his own

Carucci Take 2: Bills are built to get the better of run-driven Titans
‘The Bills’ ultra-explosive, quick-striking offense creates the likelihood of their building and expanding an early lead. The Titans’ offense depends on the power supplied by Henry’s running.’

Thad’s Three Things: Bills vs. Titans
‘Without him, the Bills will need more from someone (or maybe multiple someones) else. Isaiah McKenzie was okay, but probably disappointing overall in his first game with a larger role in offense. Jamison Crowder did look good in limited opportunities. If Davis is out, Khalir Shakir or maybe even Isaiah Hodgins might also get a chance. Both were very impressive in the preseason.’
Bills slightly banged up heading into Monday night’s game
‘Jackson is listed as questionable, and Settle is doubtful, but both seem optimistic they’ll be good to go for the home opener.’
