I am really worried about his lack of power and strength going forward. He was getting tossed around and overpowered by Judon on almost every rep. It's obvious that he was/is just the weaker player.

I think this is THE matchup of the Bills game. Gregory Rousseau vs. Hakeem Adeniji. Rosseau is a big strong end much like Judon who should have his way with Adeniji on paper.

If the Bengals can find a way to limit Rosseau's impact and/or Adeniji steps up and has a good game, I think its the difference between the Bengals winning and losing.

I worry about Taylor as well. His default position is to go 5 wide and empty.  Further, his orotection schemes often leave the OT 1 v 1 with the DE. Or even worse, he'll have the TE block them 1 v. 1.  

More Perine. More chipping. More help. More running at him to slow the rush down. ZT is poor at all these things.
