Ravens are an intense and emotional team. I'd like to see the Bills try to frustrate their team by attacking our best matchups - which tends to be Davis and Beasley against the lesser corners. Peters and Humphries will take Diggs +1 WR (could be Brown or Beasley depending on the play). They are a man heavy team, spread the field and take what's given. I could also see the benefit of Mckenzie this week if he is good to go - jet sweeps and motions could give Baltimore's D that little hesitation on a blitz that allows Allen to get the right throws off. Another thing helping us this year compared to last year - our RB's have been vastly improved blockers, and our line as a whole is better at picking up blitzes compared to last year. My concerns? Does the D play well in gap control. This may be a frustrating game to watch if the D get's overzealous and Lamar makes them miss. I hope the line stays calm and Milano and Edmunds will play a huge role in that.

Sorry - autocorrect on the phone!

The Ravens have a mediocre linebacker core and their secondary is built on their two corners. We play an empty or 4 wide formation often, and have a composed qb. Allow Davis or Beasley to feast on lesser matchups and use McKenzie to stretch the field horizontally. To me their D is similar to Miami who we took advantage of

Looks like the Ravens in round two. Keys to victory: Gap control - remove the big play Jet Sweep/motion - McKenzie will be important to identify coverage and keep the defense thinking Allen - he has to stay calm and take what's given. There is no reason the Bills can score 30+

Steelers look like the Dolphins we played last week

Lamar Jackson throws two balls on that drive - one is behind Brown (who adjust nicely to grab without slowing too much) and a flat to Andrews that is low and slow. Thats my issue with Jackson. I don't see him make the easy throws easy. He floats the ball a lot and struggles with easy throws at times

I mean that's certainly something to hang your hat on I guess...

I'd have way more questions for Daboll or even Allen if they are targeting Knox with the game on the line. That's why they have Diggs and Beasley and Brown. He is clearly the 3rd/4th option on most plays. The offense doesn't flow through him in any way.

The best thing the Bills can do is dominate defensively against Tua and force Miami to spend way more time than it needs deciding which QB to go into the wild card with. They simply cannot take another bad performance from Tua and expect to have any steam rolling into the playoffs.

I think the bills are showing they can simply flirt with the idea of having a TE threat and it'll be enough. They need Knox because he has the vertical threat to open the field for others. If he drops one a game, I think it's down the priority list.
