Buffalo Bills: What to Watch For Preseason Week 3

The Buffalo Bills are halfway thru the preseason, and there is still room for improvement. There are some highs and lows, and now they must turn from installation to consistency.

In the preseason, Week three is typically the first real simulation for the regular season. You can expect to see the starters for most teams play into the 3rd quarter.

Unlike the first two weeks of preseason, teams will be game planning for their opponents.  This will provide the coaches practice, but also simulates what will be the normal regular season practice schedule for players.

After week 3 there is no more sign of the starters until Week 1. The position battles in camps will likely be decided late during the game, but also for those backups, every rep is that much more important since there will be a lot fewer during the game and in practice.

What I don’t need to see this week is an amazing defensive performance. This week although a full regular season simulation is all about the offense to me. The defense has been stellar in games and pre-season thus far. All I want from them is no injuries and to keep building chemistry.

Let’s take a look at the top things to watch all week, starting with the Bills starter at the most important position in football, Tyrod Taylor.
