A star is about to be born.  Dane Jackson will be a stand out CB for the Buffalo Bills all the way to the SB.

Dane doesn't have to be White, or anything close to how good White is.

 

He needs to be capable and coachable.  What we need from him is play that's good enough so that White's loss doesn't create a vulnerability that opposing DC's and QB's can exploit.

Dane doesn’t have the instincts to make up for his lack of closing in speed. We saw that when the saints got the first down near the sidelines. Tre breaks up the pass and has many times because of his foresight.

He just needs to play his 1/11 if called upon and we will be fine.

 

White is a special player and makes a difference for sure. However there is a lot of talent on that D and on the secondary especially. Poyer and Hyde will lead the young guys along.

Some of the games left: NE twice, Tampa Bay, Falcons, Panthers and Jets. Except for Bucs, no truly elite WRs Buffalo would need to lock down to finish the season. Of course, playoffs will be different (assuming the Bills make the playoffs and no I’m not being pessimistic, just nothing guaranteed) but at that point who knows what happens.

 

Somewhat ironically, the run game now plays an even bigger role for the Bills to be able to continue to win.

I don't know.   White is damn special.

this, exactly.  D’s and teams lose a stud or two during the year.  You want the SB, you need to be able to survive this.

Or he was not letting himself get beat deep on a double move. For all you know he sniffed out the shot call and let him take the first.

Big difference between being special and surviving this, don't you think?
