Buffalo Bills Bold Prediction #1: Levi Wallace has an interception

This may not be a bold prediction because the last two times the Bills have played the Steelers, Levi Wallace has had an interception. However, turnovers are hard to predict and when considering Wallace has only two interceptions in the other 33 career games, this is worth mentioning.

Wallace entered training camp once again in a position battle and once again won the starting job. However, he does face a tough challenge, as does the entire Bills secondary, going up against these Steelers wide receivers.

It remains to be seen what the gameplan will be for the Bills in how they defend the wide receivers, whether the cornerbacks shadow a specific player or Tre’Davious White and Levi Wallace just cover one side of the field all game. However, Roethlisberger is probably going to be looking Wallace’s way most of the game and he should have plenty of chances to come away with an interception this week.
