Buffalo Bills: 5 bold predictions vs. Philadelphia Eagles in Week 12
By Brandon Ray
3.) Rasul Douglas gets 2+ takeaways
The recently acquired cornerback from the Green Bay Packers stood out last week against the New York Jets. Not only did he manage to play lockdown against wide receiver Garrett Wilson, he also recorded two interceptions and recorded a fumble recovery.
It was a surprise that he did not win AFC Defensive Player of the Week last week (which Dolphins’ cornerback Jalen Ramsey won). Douglas will have a big task this week going up against guys like A.J. Brown and Devonta Smith.
The secondary will be the biggest x-factor on the defense when it comes to getting the Eagles’ offense off the field. While this is not a spectacular offense that Buffalo will face, they are still physical and can score on the ground and through the air. Douglas has shown to be a good acquisition for Buffalo so far and if he can play physical with Philadelphia’s receivers, look for Douglas to attack the ball and either force or record a takeaway or two.
