‘With so many secondary players banged up for the Bills, it will be even more critical to get to Tagovailoa and not allow him to launch the ball downfall to his speedsters. The Bills have done an excellent job of getting pressure with their front four this season, and not needing to blitz. That would be the ideal scenario again Sunday so they can keep more defenders in coverage. If they can continue to get home with four it will go along way in not allowing as many opportunities for the Dolphins passing game to get going.’

Carucci Take 2: Bills’ talent, depth should allow them to weather injury storm vs. Dolphins
‘There’s no minimizing the losses of safety Micah Hyde (neck), defensive tackles Jordan Phillips (hamstring) and Ed Oliver (ankle), and cornerback Dane Jackson (neck).

‘The Sean McDermott defense is zone based. It’s about constricting space, creating confusion and forcing decisions.

There will be no Leslie Frazier asking Benford what flavor gum Waddle was at the end of the game.’
