The Buffalo Bills must now try to find a way to slow the high-octane offense of the Seattle Seahawks in Week 9.

In their victory over the Patriots last week, the weather forced the Buffalo Bills to change up the typical winning formula that they have used all season. Last week was the first victory the Bills have had this season with their running backs eclipsing 100 total rushing yards combined.

The Bills have won a few other games this season with over 100 total rushing yards, but in all of those other victories, Josh Allen has been part of the combination that got the rushing total over 100 yards. It’s great to see that the combination of Devin Singletary and Zack Moss can be effective if needed like Bills fans believed it would be when Brandon Beane selected Moss in the 3rd round of this most recent NFL Draft.

As for the Seahawks, they continue their winning ways with dominant offensive performances led by MVP candidate Russell Wilson. The thing that has been challenging the Seahawks this year has been their defense, but they posted their best numbers of the season last week against the 49ers.

Although the 49ers have been heavily affected by injuries on the offensive side of the ball this year, that cannot completely take away from the fact that 351 total yards from the 49ers last week is the lowest yard total allowed by the Seahawks to this point in the 2020 season.

The Buffalo Bills offense will look to bring the Seahawks defense back towards their typical averages for this year as this Week 9 matchup appears to be gearing up to be a shoot out.
