Pro Football Rumors
“The Buffalo Bills secondary has struggled, most recently engaging in shootouts with the Rams and Raiders.”
Outcome:
Contextualizing the team's defensive ranking.
Reaper’s Verdict
Shootouts are fun for the fans, but they're a death sentence in January. Fix the secondary or prepare for an early grave.
Austin Boyd, BuffaLowDown
“The Buffalo Bills defense has struggled this season, but adding Maxx Crosby could fix a number of problems.”
Outcome:
Speculation on trade deadline moves.
Reaper’s Verdict
Adding a beast like Crosby would turn this defense from a liability into a nightmare for opposing QBs. Make it happen.
