Lamar Jackson and Derrick Henry are unlike anyone at their respective positions.
The quarterback will likely win his third MVP, judging by the All-Pro voting.
The running back is up to 2,107 yards and 18 touchdowns on the season, all at the age of 31 years old.
But you heard it from A.J. Epenesa after the Buffalo Bills’ wild-card win over Denver. This Buffalo Bills defense that’s suffered its share of postseason duds will not put the Ravens up on a pedestal. They’re confident in their own progress since. Week 4. “We definitely respect them,” Epenesa told Go Long, “but there’s a way to beat everybody and that’s our mindset.”
On Substack Live, from One Bills Drive, I was joined by Jay Skurski of The Buffalo News on Wednesday. We dive into the match-up.
How should the Bills defend this duo? Theoretically, Sean McDermott could replace nickel Taron Johnson with a linebacker, but is it worth changing who you are?
Is McDermott’s team looser into this playoff game vs. past divisional round games? He got into the psychology of his team in our sitdown last week.
Which Ed Oliver shows up? Buffalo needs him.
Tackling Derrick Henry in 5-degree weather likely will not be a fun experience. Which team benefits from the bitter cold in the forecast?
Why the Bills are determined to win on the line of scrimmage.
Josh Allen will need be the purest form of Josh Allen to win.
