The Buffalo Bills will complete their regular season road schedule tomorrow when they take on the Cleveland Browns. With the Bills coming off their best comeback win of the season last Sunday, tomorrow’s game has the term “trap game” written all over.
The only bright spot that the Browns have is edge rusher Myles Garrett who has a great chance at breaking the record for most sacks in a season. However, don’t think that he can change the momentum in this game.
This is one of those games where the Bills should be able to control it right out of the gate. Sure, Cleveland may give Buffalo a run for their money at times, but we all know that the Bills should be able to avoid a true four-quarter game.
Week 16 bold predictions for Bills vs. Browns
James Cook finishes as Bills' MVP in this game
Cleveland’s run-defense has not been great since their bye, which sets up James Cook to have himself a great day. We have seen Cook be the reason why the Bills win games and Week 16 could be no different. The Bills have only lost one game this season when Cook runs for over 100 yards. If all goes well, the Bills should be able to go up early and then just keep running the ball to leave Cleveland with a win.
Bills defense picks off Shedeur Sanders twice
Since taking over starter duties for the Browns, Shedeur Sanders has only had one game where he didn’t throw an interception. Last week against the Bears, he threw three interceptions. Since Week 1, the Bills have only had two games where they didn’t force a turnover. After their bye week, the Bills have had five games of multiple takeaways. They could easily intercept Sanders twice in this game.
Cleveland doesn't get over 100 yards rushing
Cleveland has only rushed for over 100 yards in six games this season, with three games of over 135+ yards. This is quite the bold prediction because we know how down right awful the Bills’ run-defense has been this entire season. However, they have shown that they can stop the run and if they can get up early on Cleveland, the Browns won’t be able to run the ball as much.
DE Myles Garrett only gets one sack
The only great thing that Cleveland has going for them is Myles Garrett, who is coming into this game with 21.5 sacks. He is one sack shy away from tying the record, which is currently held by T.J. Watt and Michael Strahan. There is a very good chance that Garrett will tie the record, but Bills fans should be believers in Spencer Brown and Dion Dawkins to avoid letting Garrett set a new record.
