All reports are saying Jimmy will start. I am so pumped to see if he can come out on fire like he did vs the Fins. Feels like we have a wounded Bills team coming in with little offensive fire power so the table is set for Jimmy. Psyched to see him out there.
Compared to Buffalo we're as healthy as a horse. The biggest negative we have going is Hightower. Hes a legit top 5-6 backer and a leader.
I talked about gap integrity and discipline in my write up and how crucial it is for this particular game. Hightower, as a player, is as good as any at filling those holes, whether its staying patient or screaming up the middle like your hair is on fire, 54 is perfect for this type of game. Also there's no running back that can pick him up on the blitz because hes like a pick up truck.
He'll be missed but I'd rather be healthy. Health is too important with this team. We stay healthy and I feel like we're all be playing in February.
That said Buffalo is banged up in the worst way. Their wr corp was bottom 5-10 with Sammy. They just picked up Justin Hunter, who let's say isn't the brightest bulb, but actually a decent fit for them. Wr/TE, OLine, DB's are huge concerns imo that can't and won't be covered up.
