The Detroit Lions face the Buffalo Bills on Sunday afternoon in what may be the team’s biggest test. While they continue to hold the lead in the NFC North and the entire conference, Detroit’s lead in both races is just one, and a loss to the Bills would jeopardize their chances of prevailing.

The Bills’ offense is undeniable. Quarterback and MVP candidate Josh Allen is having a career year and is the main reason the Bills have scored at least 30 points in seven straight games. Buffalo’s defense is a little more inconsistent, but still has value as a unit. They rank eighth in points allowed and tenth in DVOA.

So today’s question of the day is:

Which Lions player will have a big game against the Bills?

My answer: I think it will be Jahmyr Gibbs.

The Bills have allowed 4.7 yards per carry this season (26th), and a big reason for that is their tendency to forego big plays in the running game. They have allowed 49 runs of at least 10 yards, and Gibbs ranks second in runs of 10 yards or more (30) — behind only one other MVP candidate (Saquon Barkley).

Gibbs currently ranks fifth in the NFL in total rushing yards (1,016), which is quite an accomplishment considering he doesn’t even have the most carries on the team. His 178 rushing attempts are narrowly exceeded by David Montgomery (180).

If Gibbs can showcase his explosiveness on Sunday, it can keep Allen off the field and give Detroit its best chance to maintain its lead in the standings with just three games remaining.
