The Buffalo Bills' Divisional Round matchup against the Baltimore Ravens is going to be a true fight to the finish.
And that's because both teams are truly playing at another level led by their quarterbacks.
For the Ravens, Lamar Jackson's skills are unmatched due to his ability to make plays with his legs along with his arm. That's something that is very hard for other team's to prepare for.
"There's only one Lamar Jackson at the end of the day," head coach Sean McDermott told reporters on Wednesday. "You do the best you can to kind of simulate it."
So with that, the Bills have brought someone in to try and get them ready for this difficult task.
Buffalo has signed former Ravens quarterback Anthony Brown to the practice squad, intending to use him on scout team.
"If you just put a mobile person back there planning on scrambles, the defense know it's one of those plays," McDermott said. "So in order to hide that, what Anthony brings is both. He can throw it and run it. A true, honest look, down in and down out."
In order to make room for Brown, the Bills released defensive tackle Eli Ankou.
Jackson was last season's MVP, but is putting up better numbers this year. During the regular season, the Ravens quarterback finished with 316 completions for 4,172 passing yards and 41 passing touchdowns along with 139 carries for 915 rushing yards and four rushing touchdowns.
In the Ravens first playoff game, he had 16 completions for 175 passing yards and two passing touchdowns along with 15 carries for 81 rushing yards.
In short: he's a hard guy to stop.
But, the Bills are leaving no stone unturned this week as they prepare for a very difficult matchup.
