Philadelphia Eagles scouting: 10 Bills who could wreck Week 8’s game
Frank Gore, running back
Frank Gore is a man that needs no introduction. If you’re a little hazy about who he is and you call yourself a football fan, then you should be ashamed of yourself. That’s almost disrespectful. Gore is a surefire Hall of Fame inductee when his playing days are over and he becomes eligible.
He’s much of the reason Buffalo felt comfortable with letting LeSean McCoy go, and even with a talented rookie like Devin Singletary on the roster, at 36 years young, Gore’s racked up 388 yards and two touchdowns on 86 totes. It doesn’t seem like he has any intention of slowing down.
John Brown, wide receiver
John Brown leads the Bills in receptions with 33, and he’s provided a nice security blanket for Josh Allen. His 433 receiving yards exceed Philly’s top wide receiver, Alshon Jeffery, by seven catches and 220 yards.
That doesn’t sound like much, but Philly’s secondary has been susceptible to big plays versus talented wideouts, and Brown figures to challenge a reeling secondary again on Sunday.
