THE NFL IS BACK!
Like most of you, I am incredibly excited to watch some meaningful NFL games.
Tonight’s match-up is a great way to kick off the NFL season, a match-up that could be considered a potential Super Bowl Preview! We get the Super Bowl LVII favorites in the Buffalo Bills traveling to Los Angeles to face the Super Bowl champion Rams.

The Bills’ only weakness is in the secondary, especially early this season. Their All-Pro CB Tre’Davious White is recovering from an ACL tear and will now have to rely on rookie Kaiir Elam and second-year man Dane Jackson. Last Season Jackson had a defensive grade of 58.1 by PFF, which was ranked 82nd in the NFL.
With that being said, the Bills have two of the best safeties in the league. Jordan Poyer (#12) and Micah Hyde (#5) both rank in the top 15 in defensive grades among safeties per PFF. I expect one of them will be helping with double-coverage on Cooper Kupp most of the game, leaving Robinson one-on-one.
With the total set at 52.5 points, I assume we will see some offensive fireworks.
