     White Chris Ivory Jerseys , it will be a great place for #BillsMafia to visit"The Buffalo Bills have a fairly tame schedule when it comes to travel in 2019. Of the team’s eight road games, two are played in the same stadium, albeit against different opponents on consecutive weeks, and only two (a divisional tilt against the Miami Dolphins and a Thanksgiving Day showdown with the Dallas Cowboys) includes travel of over 1,000 miles.With regard to cities to visit, Bills fans have few solid options in terms of great vacation spots. The Bills travel to face the Cleveland Browns, Pittsburgh Steelers, and Detroit Lions, all cities that are fairly close to Buffalo (and aren’t exactly known for great weather). Buffalo plays two games in the great suburb of East Rutherford, New Jersey, which may be only nine miles away from New York City, but isn’t the best game to travel to for Bills fans. The best option for Bills fans this Fall? Nashville, Tennessee, home of the Tennessee Titans. The Bills travel to the Titans in Week 5, meaning the two teams will play on the same weekend that they did last year. Buffalo won that game at home 13-12 thanks to a Stephen Hauschka field goal as time expired. This time Chris Ivory Jerseys 2019 , the Bills will make the nearly 700-mile trek down south to face Tennessee.The last time the Bills played at Nissan Stadium, the game was also decided by one point—as the Bills defeated the Titans 14-13. With plenty to do right across the Cumberland River, the Stadium is located in a perfect spot. With the average temperature in October hovering around 72 degrees, it’s the ideal place for a weekend filled with Buffalo victories and great music.While some may see AT&T Stadium, home of the Dallas Cowboys, as the ideal road game for travel this season, the fact that the Bills travel to Dallas on Thanksgiving makes things a bit more complicated. Fans may be hesitant to leave family and traditions behind for the experience of one of America’s most impressive stadiums. With so many road games within driving distance, those games may offer more convenience for fans at the expense of a great overall experience.Given the time of year for both games, I’m picking Nashville hot chicken over Babe’s Chicken Dinner House.

Contractually, the entire unit could be overhauled by 2020. Could their first-round draft pick be used to get a head start? Today we’re going to profile Florida State’s Brian Burns, one of the marquee edge rushers in this year’s rookie class. Let’s dive in.The immediate impression of Burns is how freakishly athletic he is. His first step is excellent, and the second and third steps are even better. He can turn on a dime, and stop-start with only a step or two to reset his momentum. Burns’s top-end speed is fast enough that he could be trusted to drop into coverage and still finish with a tackle.That excellent athleticism is paired with a long, 6’5” frame with a nearly 84” wingspan. He uses that length to swat down passes and swipe at quarterbacks’ arms. In three seasons at FSU, Burns had seven passes defended and seven forced fumbles.Burns seemingly always has a pass-rushing plan when he goes to work. With fast, active arms, he can keep linemen out of his chest and put them on the defensive. Burns has an absolute bevy of pass-rushing moves. He’s creative, varied, and willing to pull them out multiple times per game. I think his go-to is the spin move, but he has chops, rips, swipes, and counter moves. Below I’ve clipped a few examples.Burns plays with his hair on fire Jeremy Kerley Jerseys 2019 , going hard on every snap. In pursuit, he’ll chase a player down the sidelines if necessary. He’s also a feisty competitor. I always saw him get in the last shove after the play was over, and he would take opportunities to whoop with his teammates or yap at an opponent after a big play.Though he played at roughly 235 pounds, Burns actually has a decently stout anchor in his lower body. However, he’s never going to be a dominant edge setter. He’s a bit too lithe to control a gap against strong linemen, and he’s often torqued to the side on running plays. Whether this is a physical limitation or an issue with Burns taking bad angles to set the edge, I’m not sure. Either way, it’s his main drawback.Edge rusher may be the premier position group from this NFL Draft class, at least in the first round. Burns arguably belongs in the top tier with Nick Bosa and Josh Allen. He has a rare combination of athletic ability and size, and he merges that with a combination of motor and creativity that help him reach his potential. Burns has the upside of a top-ten NFL pass rusher, and that could give the Bills an elite defensive unit moving forward.
