Show Notes
The Buffalo Bills (6-2) have another chance to prove they are legitimate contenders when the division-leading Seattle Seahawks (6-1) come to town Sunday. On the latest episode of the Billieve Podcast, hosts John Boccacino and Jamie D’Amico have everything you need to know for the Week 9 clash.
Among the questions we examine:
- Can Buffalo contain MVP candidate Russell Wilson and the high-flying Seahawks offense?
- How will defensive coordinator/assistant head coach Leslie Frazier scheme his defense to deal with Wilson and his quartet of talented pass catchers in DK Metcalf, Tyler Lockett, Greg Olsen and Will Dissly?
- Knowing Wilson picks apart zone defenses, and knowing Buffalo predominantly plays zone, how will the Bills adjust their game plan against the dangerous Seahawks offense?
- What to look for in the anticipated matchup between Metcalf and Buffalo's All Pro cornerback Tre'Davious White.
- Why safeties Micah Hyde and Jordan Poyer will need to step up their coverage game against Lockett and Metcalf.
- Will Ed Oliver, Jerry Hughes, Mario Addison and the Bills pass rush generate enough pressure to force Wilson into turnovers?
- The Seahawks are expected to be without their top two running backs (Chris Carson and Carlos Hyde). Can Buffalo, minus Matt Milano, bottle up the ground game?
- Will Josh Allen and Buffalo’s offense return to the form it showed during a four-game winning streak to start the season?
- The Seahawks are giving up the most passing yards in the league (nearly 360 per game), which should bode well for Allen and his talented trio of wide receivers in Stefon Diggs, Cole Beasley and John Brown.
- One week after Devin Singletary and Zack Moss gashed the New England Patriots on the ground, why the Bills shouldn't forget about the ground game, which can serve to keep the potent Seahawks' offense on the sidelines.
- How worried should Bills fans be about center Mitch Morse, who is out after suffering another concussion?
After answering these questions, our podcasters offer up their score predictions for the game.
