5 Bills the Denver Broncos need to worry about on Saturday
By Noah Smith
3. Stefon Diggs
Stefon Diggs has transformed the Bills’ offense and is the true number one receiver Josh Allen needed. Diggs is an absolute game-changer on offense, seen last week against the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Diggs uses elite route running and athleticism to make cornerbacks look silly, and to take any pass he catches to the house. The Broncos will need to respect Diggs’ ability and double him throughout the game.
The Broncos are already facing a tough task with just three healthy cornerbacks on the roster. Facing Stefon Diggs will be a huge challenge for the secondary, and could ultimately be the deciding factor on Saturday.
The Broncos have struggled to contain Diggs in the past, with Diggs running wild against the Broncos in last year’s matchup against the Minnesota Vikings. Diggs finished the game with 5 receptions for 121 yards and a touchdown per ESPN.
If the Broncos want to hold the Bills’ offense in check, keeping Diggs under control is a must. Diggs can single-handedly destroy the Broncos’ chances of stealing a win over the Bills.
