GAME BALL

Wadley consideration for 120 yards running into seven and eight in the box with a five yard average per carry.
 
Josh Jackson really played well. Josey Jewell might have been even better, but Jackson really stepped up and filled King's shoes.
 
Secondary played really good. If Taylor can clean some things up, like tackling, they will be a pretty stout group.

Yep, maybe Wadley can share it with the entire D. Really hoping the OL can open up some holes for Wadley next week if Daniels/Myers are back. Also, hoping Brian takes an honest look at some of his playcalling.
 
I'll agree with the secondary. Jewel, we expect him to be everywhere. He's a first team all american so you expect him to have this type of game every week. For a green secondary to give up zero td passes and have pretty darn good coverage throughout the day against a likely top 5 pick was totally unexpected. Next week they'll be facing better WRs, hopefully they can keep it up.
 
I thought Jewell played a complete game so I'll go with him because he was in on so many plays but JJ certainly stood out as well today.

Is Manny our top corner or is JJ?
 
14 tackles, 2 sacks, 2.5 TFL
Pretty obvious
At first I was thinking Jackson but then reflecting about the very pivotal play where he forced the intentional grounding penalty on Allen it became obvious for me too. And that play isn't even reflected in those stats!
 
If Josh Allen doesn't hit a wide open Joshua Jackson in the flat, or get the ball right into the hands of Brady Reiff on that screen pass.... then the game would have had a very different outcome.
