Philadelphia Eagles top obstacle, advantage to beating each playoff team
Biggest advantage: Buffalo’s passing attack, Biggest disadvantage: Buffalo’s defense
You’d never believe this next statement if you simply watch highlight reels and YouTube, but Josh Allen actually has more rushing touchdowns than Lamar Jackson does. Despite the fact that he’s a constant threat to create excellence with his legs, the Buffalo Bills can’t seem to find any consistent traction when they have to rely on passing the ball.
They’re not nearly as scary on third and long as they are on third and short.
Philly’s biggest issue here is simply gaining some momentum against a brilliant young defense. Tre’Davious White basically cuts off one side of the field and opposing quarterbacks are seeing little to no success when throwing in his direction.
Buffalo has shown that they’re stout, but they have also shown that they can be taken advantage of by another’s team’s rushing attack. They also seem to struggle if their opponent has a tailback that can do damage in the passing game. That’s a good sign for Philly if they meet up with Buffalo in Miami.
