1) A.J. Green & Andy Dalton

The Bills could simply not stop the dynamic duo of Andy Dalton and super star wide receiver A.J. Green. The duo looked to be back on their winning ways when Dalton found Green for a 77-yard catch and run touchdown after Green burned rookie cornerback Tre’Davious White.

Green finished the day with 7 receptions on 13 targets, 189-yards, 1 touchdown and 1 fumble. With Julio Jones leaving the game last weekend, this was Whites toughest matchup so far in the season. But, it doesn’t get any better as after their bye week Buccaneers super star wide receiver Mike Evans comes to town. Dalton, on the other hand, looked like the Andy Dalton we’re used to seeing; he was 22 of 36, 328-yards and 1 touchdown. The defense will look to shut down Evans in week 7 after an embarrassing outing against Green.
