After a busy week with defeating a division rival and trading for a star wideout in Amari Cooper, the Buffalo Bills will now have to turn their attention to a struggling, yet possibly underrated Tennessee Titans team. Coming in at 1-4, the Titans are looking to climb their way out of a hole that they fell into with their rough start.

Aside from their Week 3 double digit loss to the Green Bay Packers, the Titans have lost a game by more than eight points. The biggest issue with the Titans from the outside is that Will Levis tries to play like Superman, kind of like Josh Allen has throughout his career.

Buffalo is finally back in Orchard Park after spending the last three weeks on the road against tough opponents. Coming off a fresh win and acquiring a top-25 receiver in Cooper, the Bills are riding a high note. Now it’s time to concentrate on an opponent that will be looking to pull the upset.

We had the chance to catch up with Titans expert Justin Melo from Titan Sized and get some insights about the Titans leading up to this game. Melo was able to tell some valuable information that Bills fans should be excited about.

Bills vs. Titans Week 7 insights

1.) What is a major area of concern for the Titans that the Bills need to attack to make life difficult for Tennessee?

Forcing turnovers. Starting quarterback Will Levis has committed a league-high 10 turnovers and continues to struggle with decision making. Tennessee's defense has been outstanding, but hasn't been able to overcome Levis' shortcomings.

2.) Tennessee’s rushing attack could give Buffalo’s run-defense some trouble this week. Could Tony Pollard play a major role in a potential Titans’ victory?

The Titans will certainly try to play through Tony Pollard and control the clock, keeping Josh Allen frustrated on the sidelines. Pollard has arguably been Tennessee's best player on offense this season. Tyjae Spears appears primed to miss Sunday's game with a hamstring injury, so expect Pollard to carry a heavy workload.

3.) What do the Titans need to do to pull off an upset against the Bills in a hostile environment?

The Titans need to play a clean, turnover-free game. They've struggled to do that this season. The defense also needs to commit turnovers, an area they've struggled in this season, though they did show improvement versus the Colts in Week 6 through an Amani Hooker interception.

4.) Which Titans player(s) should Bills fans keep an eye on the most in this game?

Titans rookies JC Latham, T'Vondre Sweat, and Jarvis Brownlee Jr. have been outstanding in recent weeks. The 1-4 Titans are a bad football team, but their rookie class appears to be building blocks for the future.
