For the first look at the Divisional Round, of course, we are doing my Buffalo Bills. This game will be a battle between two of the three quarterbacks from the 2018 draft playing this week, Josh Allen and Lamar Jackson. These two faced off last year, during Lamar's MVP season and Jackson took the victory, but it was a close one. So I think that with Allen's improvement, this game will be a fun one to watch. Anyway, let's get into it.
This game is in Buffalo and the weather could slow down the Bills passing offense but I think that no matter what the weather is, snow or wind, Josh Allen's arm won't be that affected. I have also heard that Lamar has never played in places like Buffalo with snow, so we will have to see how that affects his game.
With all of this, I assume that it will be a high scoring, back and forth game with the two QBs running and throwing a lot. Fun Fact: neither of these quarterbacks have EVER thrown a pick in the redzone. That is unbelievable. In the end I believe that this game will be very close and it will come down to how the defences play and who turns the ball over more.
Now, let's talk about the defenses, because they are going to have to step up to stop these dual threat quarterbacks. For the Ravens, who like to blitz a lot, this could hurt them as Josh Allen has been pretty spectactular against the Blitz this year. The Bills on the other hand have to find a way to stop the run. Though, the last time these teams faced, the Bills defence held Lamar to less then 200 total yards. If they can play that way again and limit the big plays in the run game, I think that the Allen to Diggs connection will shine, and they will win that game and move on to the AFC Championship.
