Buffalo Bills: Key matchups to watch in Week 7 against the New York Jets

Stefon Diggs vs. Pierre Desir

The Buffalo Bills already know they are going to be without starting wide receiver John Brown this week so if the coaching staff does focus on getting the passing game going again, this should be a high workload for star receiver Stefon Diggs.

In their first meeting, which was Diggs’ first career game with the Bills, he caught eight of nine targets for 86 yards but no touchdown. However, in the one game that Brown has missed this year, Week 5 against the Tennessee Titans, Diggs had 10 receptions on 16 targets for 106 yards.

For the New York Jets, they will likely try to line up Pierre Desir, their best corner, up against Stefon Diggs whenever possible. Desir is in his first season with the Jets after starting his career with the Indianapolis Colts. While the Jets have struggled this year, Desir is actually playing pretty well and already has three interceptions on the season.

This is a matchup that is probably going to be targeted a lot and Diggs should win to help this Bills offense keep moving.
