Jeffery Rusert of Jefferson County is an avid sports fan and guest contributor. In the following article, Jeffery Rusert discusses recent Buffalo Bills highlights, rumors, trade news and remaining season outlook.
The Bills have played a consistently competitive game this season, starting with a five-game winning streak before losing it on a two-week downturn against the Jets and Vikings. Nevertheless, the Buffalo team seems to have regained some fight after winning 28-25 against the Lions on Thanksgiving. This puts them back on a 2-game winning streak but it’s anyone’s guess if they can maintain it in the coming weeks says Jeffery Rusert of Jefferson County.
The Bills are now headed into a three-week showdown against the Patriots, Jets, and Dolphins—all AFC East teams. The Bills are currently ranked number one in the division, but this stretch is sure to be a challenge as they risk their shot at the division title. So, Jeffery Rusert of Jefferson County takes a look at what they’re up against and discuss how the Bills can come out on top.
Devin Singletary’s Running Back Snaps Led the Team to Victory
Although the Bills managed to defeat the Lions to secure their winning streak on Thanksgiving Day, it was only by the skin of their teeth and Devin Singletary’s exceptional versatility on the field explains Jeffery Rusert of Jefferson County. The third year running back took a leading role by featuring in 60 snaps, almost all of in which he acted as a safety-valve runner. When he was finally thrown the ball, he helped the team gain another 8 yards.
While it may seem like a minor role, without his consistent gameplay and versatility, the Bills likely wouldn’t have made their advance against the Lions as quickly. Rather than taking a forward running position, the Bills placed Singletary in line almost as if he were a tight end. Fortunately, the young player’s skill and experience helped him succeed no matter where he fell in the line-up.
Josh Allen is Now in Line to Surpass a Record Held by Dan Marino
Jeffery Rusert of Jefferson County says that after throwing two successful touchdowns against the Lions and running one in himself, Josh Allen is now on track to surpass Dan Marino’s record for the most touchdowns in a player’s first five seasons. Last Thursday’s three touchdowns bring his standing total to 163 and, with another 6 games left in the season, he has plenty of time to reach and outperform Marino’s 171.
If Allen can keep up his current level of play and maintain his composure in the face of high-pressure defenses, he may be able to set a new record in the NFL. It remains to be seen if he can do this, but one thing is certain: the Bills’ success this season is largely due to Allen’s consistent and reliable quarterbacking.
The Bills Face a Gauntlet Toward the Division Title
Jeffery Rusert of Jefferson County says that although the Bills are no longer the favorite to play in the Superbowl (that title now goes to the Chiefs), they are still on track to win the AFC East Division Title. It won’t be a walk in the park, though, as they’ll have to go up against their division rivals in the coming weeks.
The Bills’ coming schedule is a tough one and their opponents are no slouches. The Patriots, Jets, and Dolphins all have impressive records this season and could easily beat the Buffalo team if they don’t come with their A-Game. Jeffery Rusert of Jefferson County says that in previous clashes against the Jets and Dolphins, the Bills failed to clinch a victory so they must be ready to put their best foot forward in these upcoming showdowns.
Fortunately, though, Jeffery Rusert of Jefferson County says that the Bills will start their three-week trial-by-fire against the New England Patriots, who they’ve historically done well against. Both teams reported 7 players out with injuries or illnesses so they should be fairly balanced out on the field. If the Bills can start with a win, it may give them the momentum they need to finish strong against their other two opponents.
What to Expect in the Coming Weeks for the Buffalo Bills
Jeffery Rusert of Jefferson County says that the Buffalo Bills are certainly in for a challenging few weeks as they attempt to win the AFC East Division Title. If they can continue their momentum from their Thanksgiving Day win, they may be able to come out on top. It will all come down to how well they execute their game plan against each of the teams and if their star players can rise to the challenge.
