Another key for the Bills defense will be tackling in space. The Bengals were already running a ton of 1 and 3 step drops getting the ball to the players.
Milano and Edmunds will both be coming- there’s
No doubt. Milano is our best pass rusher at the moment, even if he only rushes 2-5 times a game. When he comes, he usually makes it count. The question is, will they drop a DL into coverage in their spots or will they bring 5+? I see them bringing 5+ 5-7 times max. Probably 2-4.
Regarding the comparison to the DL- I think our DTs are more diverse and much more talented than the Ravens DTs. Jones and Oliver are very good. Settle and Phillips are good. All 4 can stop the run and get after the QB.
Where we suffer atm is the edge. I agree the ravens are currently more diverse on the end.
Rousseau has shown to be very good in all aspects, but not great in any one just yet. Shaq is better vs the run but has shown capable as a pass rusher. Epenesa and Basham are the wildcards. Both 2nd rd picks that have underwhelmed but have flashed. When they flash, both can make a difference. They could he the difference in the game.
If we rush 4 most of the game and Leslie plays his normal “don’t get beat deep D” it could be a long day watching the bengals stud playmakers RAC. It’s been beaten to death, but other than QB play, the OL vs DL matchups will determine the winner imo.
Could go either way.
