Hairston vs Waddle........another fun matchup for the Rookie....

[Special K]

With Benford questionable, it looks like Hairston will see his largest share of snaps so far, and I'm sure a lot of them will be lined up opposite Waddle.

 

After handling Worthy last week, can Hairston shut down another speed demon at WR??

 

Looking forward to how this one plays out!!

 

Go Bills!!!!

The difference between Waddle and Worthy is that Waddle runs a more complete route tree. It will be a good challenge for Max, one that I think he rises to

Hairston had his wins and his losses vs Waddle....

 

Hairston,along with Bosa, Bishop, Walker, and Lewis were the only players with a pulse on Defense today.

Even the TD he gave up to Waddle...he was right there with him. Waddle just made a great grab.

Hairston wasn’t the prob today - was at the game and was trying to watch him. Our DL and LB missing countless tackles was the prob on defense. On offense, sloppy turnovers, playcalling mostly.. was trying to

scan the field and either the WRs aren’t schemed to get open or they just can’t separate. Turnovers killed, of course, and Kinkaids drop was hideous

Fair to happen to a rookie. Especially against a guy many wouldn’t have batted an eyelid and would rejoice had we successfully traded for him. 
 

Max has me confident for the future.

Same. He's a blue chipper so far

On the TD? Hardly "cooked".  He  was right in Waddle's hip when he caught it. Guy just made a better play. 

 

He also rebounded for a nice INT later showing a trait that good CBs have. A short memory.

One of the only bright spots on D

Todays matchup made Max a better player. Tough matchup but think he did well.

Best thing about the kid is he makes plays successfully on the ball. 

Back to back INTs for his first 2 games is worth it’s weight in gold.

Max was definitely a bright spot. Keep growing, looks promising.

Yes, that was bad, however Kincaid was not a problem today. Let's hope that hamstring injury is not too serious, otherwise we are in big trouble.

Hairston is definitely a bright spot in the defense. Our secondary has been much better with him out there. His future is bright and he’s a playmaker. With him and Bishop continuing to grow I really like what our secondary can become.

Good call in the DL and LBs. In previous years, Milano and Bernard were + players. This year, they are both invisible. 

[GoBills808]

I think Hairston is going to be good

Him+Benford once he finds his form is a really good corner tandem

[gobills404]

On deep balls to Waddle with Hairston in coverage Tua went 1/3 with a TD and 2 INT. I’ll take that.

[Bruffalo]

I think he’s looked excellent given he’s been thrown right into the fire. 
 

I think he could easily grow into a CB1, which is sorely needed with Benford’s regression this season.
