The Buffalo Bills have started off the season great and are coming off a 26-11 win over the Miami Dolphins. They have been one of the best teams in the NFL this season as they sit atop the AFC East. This week, the Bills are taking on the Jacksonville Jaguars, who have been one of the worst teams in the league.
The Jaguars are 1-6 on the season and are coming off a 31-7 loss against the Seattle Seahawks. This should be a dominant win for Buffalo as Jacksonville has nowhere near the amount of talent as they do.

With that said, here are four bold predictions for the Bills Week 9 game against the Jaguars.

Buffalo Bills Week 9 Predictions
4. Stefon Diggs goes over 100 yards
Stefon Diggs hasn't had as much of an impact this season after an incredible 2020 campaign. On the season, Diggs has 42 receptions for 503 yards and three touchdowns.
Diggs only has one game where he has gone over 100 yards this season, which is surprising for a player of his caliber. This is a good matchup for Diggs, and he should be able to have a dominant performance.
3. Bills sack Trevor Lawrence multiple times
A big reason for the early success for Buffalo this season is the elite defensive performance. They have one of the league's best defenses with a great scheme and talent. The defensive line has put a ton of pressure on opposing quarterbacks, and they should have similar success against the Jaguars.
Last week, the Bills' defense had two sacks and a lot of pressure on Tua Tagovailoa. Jacksonville has not had a good offensive line this year as rookie quarterback Trevor Lawrence has been pressured often. Sean McDermott's defensive front should wreak havoc on the Jaguars' offensive line.
2. Josh Allen gets four-plus touchdowns
Josh Allen is one of the best players in the NFL and has shown his dual-threat ability throughout the season. On the season, Allen has thrown for 1,972 yards along with 17 touchdowns and only three interceptions. He has also been a big threat in the run game as he has rushed for 269 yards and three touchdowns.
The Jaguars have an atrocious defense and have allowed opposing offenses to put up a lot of points. Allen and the Bills should have an outstanding performance against Jacksonville with an elite offense, leading to great numbers.
1. Bills win by multiple scores
While the Jaguars have improved during the season, they are still a horrendous team. They are going up against a Bills team that is in Super Bowl contention. Buffalo made it all the way to the AFC Championship game last season, where they lost to the Kansas City Chiefs.
The Bills' combination of an elite offense and defense make them hard for any team to beat. With the Jaguars in rebuild mode, they will likely lose by multiple scores.
McDermott's team has two very winnable games ahead against the Jaguars and then the New York Jets. They need to win the easier games as it will be important when it comes to playoff seeding in the AFC. Allen has been playing at a high level once again, and the defense has become a much improved unit this season.
Look for the Bills to continue having a great season and make a deep playoff run.
