Besides JA, predict which player will make the biggest impact - Bills at Titans

[MTBill]

I'm going with someone who's been trending up this season continuing to do so.  Knox.

[freddyjj]

#13 Gabe Davis gets some game plan love and works those intermediate sideline routes and the deep route in Daboll's under / over route concepts.

5 catches for 120 yds and 2 Tds

The answer is always Tremaine Edmunds

 

Can he shoot the run gaps?

Can he stay disciplined with cutback lanes?

Will he get sucked in by play-action?

 

 

Full disclosure, I've never been an Edmunds fan, I think it's because I'm an old fart and therefore old school when it comes to middle linebackers. I want my middle linebacker to be a "thumper" when he fills the gap to stop a running back, I want to see the backs helmet fly off and snot bubbles come out of his nose. That being said, everyone seem to just love Tremaine for skills that I just can't fathom, so therefore I love me some Edmunds. I'm afraid Edmunds needs to go all medieval on the Titans, he needs to be all over Derrick Henry like Henry is the third monkey on the gangplank of Noah's arc and it's starting to rain. Does he have it in him??? We shall see.

Dawson Knox, I don't think his stat line will be eye popping but he will have a nice line of 7 catches 75 yards and possibly a TD. I think they will be using Knox to wear out the Titans defense which will likely be playing a soft two deep zone like they did in the 2020 matchup. I think the Bills not only turn to a ground game a bit more but also throw designed short throws to Beasley and Knox. Beasley will have a good 6+ catches too but I think Knox being more physical will make it harder to "wear out" the receiving corps. I think that Knox being a complement to the offense as a tight end allows the team to allow him to get beat up a bit since they are less reliant on his talent throughout the game unlike KC who needs Kelce all game and can't go 4 wide consistently.

I like Davis to have an impact but I think the receivers and Knox eat the Titans lunch on check downs. I think getting Beasley and Knox specifically involved in making those 5-12 yard check down completions is going to be critical.

Don’t sleep on Cole Beasley in this game.  He could plays a big role 

 

I wouldn’t be surprised, bro. Especially with how great our coaches are with game specific matchups and players.

Ed Oliver not only gets a sack but he combines with Star to hold Henry under 80 yards plus adds a pair of stops for a loss.

This is what I want to see also. Hope Big Ed dominates. Love watching the way he plays.

AJ Epenesa -

 

3 Sacks

1 Forced Fumble recovered by Buffalo

1 Tipped pass intercepted by Buffalo

[oldmanfan]

Beasley.  They will try to keep us from going deep on the outside, so Beas goes nuts in the middle of the field.

[uninja]

On offense I see possible good games for Moss/Singletary against their suspect run defense or a ton of targets to Beasley/Knox to abuse the middle of the field on crossing routes if they're gonna play a zone 2-high.

 

On defense our Dline feasts, their OL is banged up and Tanny holds the ball longer than most. As long as we can bottle up Henry for most of the game this feels like a long day for the Titans.

You’re right, bro. He definitely has been trending up. So much so that he’s put the Ertz talks to bed (thankfully).

I think this is the game Hughes finally shows up big.  I think he will have 2 sacks.

This is my second choice...but I'm guessing tre with a pick 6. 

[RedDog3940]

Poyer with a key interception.  He has to keep pace with Hyde.

[WideNine]

Can't pick one player on a team that really plays complimentary football, just hard as so many players have been unselfish on this team and stepped up when needed.

 

Its a good problem to have.

 

 

 

 

 

 

[Virgil]

1- Star

2 - Edmunds

 

Tough call between the two, but I'm going to put Star in the lead.  If he can absorb 2-3 blockers like he has and allow the other defenders to attack clear lanes, Henry will hav a tough time going. 

[Governor]

Definitely Bass.

[Big Blitz]

Levi Wallace and Edmunds 

 

A legit #2 WR for the first time since week 1 (I'm not counting Kelce bc this is about defending WRs).  

 

And the best RB we'll see until Kamara.  

 

Henry is not the ideal RB for our D to cede rushing yards at the expense of taking away the the big play.  Bc Henry can rip off 20 yard runs at will. 

 

And with AJ and Julio back, you can't just crowd the box.

 

Going to be tough.  It always is there.

Derrick Henry is the Titans best offensive player. The Bills have done pretty good against him the past three games. If I’m not mistaken, his greatest rushing yardage in that three game span is something like 80 yards.

 

It’s key that they continue to limit him in this game as well. So, I’m going with Star.

 

Who ya got?

I hope and wish it to te the Diggs Show this week.   The Bills have been going deep with Sanders and Knox the past three games.  I think they change their game plan for Monday night with a heavy dose of Diggs and Beasley.

Bease and Diggs in the middle of the field.

[njbuff]

Besides JA???

 

This game will be all about JA.

 

350 and 5 TD’s for Josh. 😁

[machine gun kelly]

Star, Oliver, and Basham (gets moved inside) will contain Henry to under 80 yards.  I’m betting Klein will be in as well and have a solid game.  He’s a powerful LB and can handle Henry with Edmunds in group tackles.
