Question 3: Who is one under-the-radar player that Buffalo Bills fans should know about and watch for on Saturday night?

Pat Ricard is the most under-looked player on the Ravens roster. He is a big fullback who does most of his work by blocking. He’s a mean machine on the football field, and he springs plays open in the run game regularly.

When the Ravens turned to Ricard in the passing game after halftime, it caught the Titans off guard. He can catch it and he isn’t easy to take down. Ricard isn’t a big part of the passing game, but if Buffalo decides to leave him unattended in the flat he’ll make them pay. These plays aren’t often used, but they seem to give the offense a spark. Beware, Project Pat.
