Bold predictions for the Buffalo Bills in a Week 10 clash against the Cardinals.
The Buffalo Bills head west on Sunday in NFL Week 10 as they take on the Arizona Cardinals. The Bills are coming off of a statement win against the Seahawks and now sit 7-2 in the AFC East.
The Cardinals will be no pushover and, in Kyler Murray and DeAndre Hopkins, Arizona has weapons on offense that can stress the Bills defense. Factor in the travel circumstances as Buffalo has to cross the country to get to the desert, and it will be a challenging game. But, in the last two weeks, Sean McDermott‘s club has risen to the challenge. Buffalo beat their perennial kryptonite in the Patriots and then vaporized the Seahawks last week.
Buffalo is peaking at precisely the right time but the division isn’t finished yet. The upstart Dolphins are nipping at their heels. Still, with other AFC favorites still trying to his their stride, the Bills could be thinking about the top see in the conference. A win against the Cardinals is critical to making that happen, though.
With that in mind, let’s make a handful of bold predictions for the Buffalo Bills in Week 10 against Arizona.
3. Diggs racks up 150 yards with multiple touchdowns
Stefon Diggs has been stunning in his debut season for the Buffalo Bills. The former Viking has shown he is an elite wideout, one of the very best in the NFL. Diggs had another big day against Seattle as he torched their secondary with well over 100 yards receiving and as a constant headache for the Seahawks as he displayed great versatility and ability.
Diggs can do it all. Meanwhile, the Cardinals defense is 20th in receiving yards allowed and has had issues with its secondary. It is an average unit and is there to be attacked. Diggs’ ability to line up anywhere and run any route will make it incredibly hard for the Arizona secondary.
With veteran corner Patrick Peterson still the defensive backfield leader, Diggs will have many opportunities to attack in the slot or if matched up with the CB2 on the roster. Every quarterback needs a top wideout, and Josh Allen has his. Diggs leads the league in targets and receptions and he will have ample opportunity to dominate against the Cardinals.
He can make contested catches, stretch the field vertically and catch in traffic. He has all the elite attributes a receiver has to have. Having destroyed a talented, albeit struggling, Seahawks secondary, Diggs could very well do the same to the Cardinals with a monster outing.
