I’ll bet this is one of those weeks too. He couldn’t really say it last week, Josh Allen is good enough that even if they didn’t run the ball that well, they could’ve still beat us. But if you put Lamar consistently in second and third and long? I’ll take our chances every single time.
There’s simply no chance he plays it safe like last week and says we can’t let Lamar have explosive plays with his arm. They’re going to challenge him to do that and make running the football difficult.

Spags was very conservative in the Bills game until the very end. Chris Jones wasn't even rushing most of the game so they could force Josh to stay in the pocket.
It feels like now is the time to put Sneed/Trent on islands and bust out the blitz packages like he did to Burrow last year.
Speed up Lamar and he'll crack. Especially since he isn't making the throws outside the numbers.
